Престол
(Коронация / Coronation Redone)
Сварун

Разбив витраж созвездий, крик отчаянья в ночи несётся ввысь
Варяг пал наземь, шепчет он "Врагом стал брату нынче брат"

Margt sagða ek, munda ek fleira,
er mér meir mjötuðr málrúm gæfi...

Над Днепром бушует пламя - кровью дня закат окрашен,
Замер Киев, быть сраженью, смерть несёт Владимир брату.

Margt sagða ek, munda ek fleira,
er mér meir mjötuðr málrúm gæfi;
ómum þverr, undir svella,
satt eitt sagðak, svá mun ek láta.

Воют волки, меч в крови, и Ярополк, упавший наземь.
Помнит небо Киева коронацию братоубийцы.

И нынче я вижу то ли жертвенный алтарь, то ли престол...
Вновь братоубийства дух в короне ночи сел на звёздный трон.

Bölvat es okkr, bróðir,
bani em ek þinn orðinn...

Скипетр его фальшивый, сделан он из слёз и крови.
Солнце сменит плоть эпохи, брат не тронет больше брата

Bölvat es okkr, bróðir,
bani em ek þinn orðinn;
þat mun æ uppi;
illr er dómr norna.

Воют волки, меч в крови, и Ярополк, упавший наземь.
Помнит небо Киева коронацию братоубийцы.

Стан облёк Владимир в пурпур, пьёт багряное вино,
Поднебесье Киева всю кровь впитало в облака.

Такова судьба людская: кровь сочится из-под трона...
Пусть ему земля будет пухом, дождь его судьбы оплачет.

Пусть руку брату брат подаст...

The Throne
Svarun

The cries of wounded made the dreams disperse as I ran through the halls
The fallen stammered how the Prince returned, and then they passed away...

Margt sagða ek, munda ek fleira,
er mér meir mjötuðr málrúm gæfi...

Fires blazed across horizon, silent shade of retribution
Trumpets call for shattered kingdom, ruined so that he may build again...

Margt sagða ek, munda ek fleira,
er mér meir mjötuðr málrúm gæfi;
ómum þverr, undir svella,
satt eitt sagðak, svá mun ek láta.

Solemn oath, an eternal curse, spoken under pain of primeval sin
Have no peace, never know thy love, may these horrid words find a way and smite thy kin

And now, forgotten, ancient words of meaning lost can we ignore?...
What treasure lies within the Tales of brothers slain, how can't we see?...

Bölvat es okkr, bróðir,
bani em ek þinn orðinn...

Barren crown -- a tainted relic, silent as it ever has been
Holding keys of our redemption, or, perhaps, there is nothing left to say...

Bölvat es okkr, bróðir,
bani em ek þinn orðinn;
þat mun æ uppi;
illr er dómr norna.

Solemn oath, an eternal curse, spoken under pain of primeval sin
Have no peace, never know thy love, may these horrid words be an end of your kin

Sviatislaus Vladimir, a purple sun of rising east
Drenched in blood, let your cups rise high, for it's time to drink, it is time to feast!

Fate, the stark and sternest, shall we ever live in earnest?
Shall we ever find redemption, for the wrongs we cannot undo?

Please, take my hand, know that we are all as one!

Translation of the verse in old norse

I have told you much, and I would tell you more,
if only fate would have it so;
My voice fades and my wounds are swelling,
I have told you the truth, and now I die

We are cursed, brother,
for I have become your slayer,
only to witness once again
how cruel is the justice of Fate...
