| Blind Guardian – The Curse Of Fëanor Lyrics | 12 years ago |
|
That's about the hate of Feanor after the stealing from Morgoth of the Silmarils and the slaining of his father, Finwe. < I arrived My vision's so clear In anger and pain I left deep wounds behind But I arrived Truth might be changed by victory>> Feanor approaching the middle earth, I think < This is describing the middle earth < But Arda's spring went by>> Went by because of the destruction of Telperion and Laurelin and the spreading of the evilness of Melkor < I'll keep on laughing No regret No regret>> The Valar send Mandos to talk to them, after the Alqualonde fratricide, to warn them about the unnumbered tears they'll have to cry, and the pain they'll suffer because of their betrayal, so that they'll be exiliated from the Immortal Lands. But Feanor replys with a laugh ( " the deeds that we shall do shall be the matter of song until the last days of Arda!") Finarfin gets back to Valinor, though. After that is obviously about the Curse, then the Alqualonde killing. Last part is the most enigmatic. As others says, it is probably Feanor in the Mandos halls, at about the end of the world ( "Soon you will be free / Set your spirit free) realizing how bad is what he has done. After all, as Tolkien says, he was inspired by Melkor, his poison has reached his way to Feanor heart, and was Melkor speaking through him. Awesome. |

| Blind Guardian – Into The Storm Lyrics | 12 years ago |

This song is about the fighting between Ungoliant and Morgoth after they got out from the striding ice (The SIlmarillion, a Tolkien's book). Morgoth had promise Ungoliant everything she wanted to eat, in exchange for her help, but in the end refuse to give her the Silmarils. The parts are from the points of view of Ungoliant, then Morgoth, than maybe from the Balrogs that come to save him from the big spider, since she was owning him, not sure about that. Thank Ungoliant, Morgoth, Balrogs (?), Ungoliant. On their way to the middle-earth they destroyed Laurelin and Telperion, the two sacred trees (this is described in Nightfall), killed Finwe, and after that we have the curse of Feanor, in the omonimous song. Ungoliant did not die, by the way, just escaped further south. |

All the first part is from Morgoth point of view, until "Just wondering how". From there is obviously the description of the men getting to the Beleriand. These part: The field was lost (And) hope had passed away The sun went down Beyond the sea Dark was the hour But day shall come again Is, I'm pretty sure, from Hurin point of view. "Day shall come again" is what He was crying out at every beat he gave with his axe, Aure Entuluva! "He cryed that out 70 times", he managed to kill 70 - and more- orcs alone before being captured alive. A great Man, indeed. Follows the Hurin grief part, and then the curse of Morgoth: Sit down on your chair And look out for your kin With my eyes you'll see And with my ears you'll hear You troubled my day And you've questioned my strength (But) don't mess With the master of fate I did not mention it was the Nirnaeth Arnoediad and so on, for other users already said that =) Thanks guys! |
