Dying In A Moment Of Splendour (echoes Of Melancholy) Lyrics - Ancient Rites

Ich umarme die Finsternis 

Seit dem Tag an dem meine Reise began 

Always embraced the Dark 

Since the day my journey began 

With length of time 

We gain a step in knowledge 

With length of time 

A step closer to Death 

(However) 

J'ai plus de souveniers que si j'avais mille ans 

I have gathered as many memories 

As if I have lived a thousand years 

Only choice left 

Is to die in a moment of splendour 

Ultimate this experience shall be 

Echoes of melancholy 

Are haunting my dreams 

Dying in a moment of splendour 

Echoes of melancholy 

Are haunting my dreams 

Waiting this inevitable event 

Of ultimate splendour 

The time when Death shall arrive 

As a welcome companion 

Although immortality it is I always craved 

But so tragic yet divine it must be 

When ending in beauty 

As there is nothing grander left 

To reach out for 

While a larger than life experience 

Is achieved 

Ich umarme die Finsternis 

Seit dem Tag an dem meine Reise began 

Always embraced the Dark 

Since the day my journey began 

With length of time 

We gain a step in knowledge 

With length of time 

A step closer to Death 

J'ai plus de souveniers que si j'avais mille ans
