Ensiferum – From Afar Lyrics 3 years ago
So this may be a bit far-fetched, but hear me out:

I think the song speaks upon the loss of indigenous, primal beliefs due to the new Abrahamic paradigm.

"I saw the might,
Of the ancient Light!
And the beauty of the perishing world,
There's no tomorrow.
We have been warned."

I interpret that the song itself and the music video give hints to the looming threat of a dark force engulfing the world in its shadow. The "ancient light" is seemingly now a force we could find through our primordial knowing and intuition. Assimilation into dogmatic religions is the true cancer of this Universe. Salvation is met from within, not from the material and external. Tap into your power today and avert away from the venomous teachings of lies we have been fed since the day we were born.
