The Dragonslayer Lyrics - Singles - Mystic Circle

with his armour sword and shield 

he walked through the night 

and in the light of the moon 

he shines like a warrior 

he walked till the break of dawn 

and above his head 

the dragonstone was ahead 

dark and threatening 

on his way he saw a wagon 

with a farmers family 

he told the man full of pugnacity 

what's in his mind 

that he wants to free the land 

from the plague and pain 

and from the smell of sulfur 

the fire and the dead 

Farmer: 

"Take the horse that came yesterday it's former owner is dead 

as you he would kill Fafnir but he wasn't an opponent 

he dies in the flames of hell no scream were heard that night 

the Lindworm is undefeated and someday he will destroy us." 

with the dead behind he rides through a former happy land 

now destruction and fear in his eyes 

darkest feelings in his mind, then he saw a ravine where 

all his live would end or glory will begin. 

the dragonslayer 

then he saw the head of the dragon looking in his eyes 

bones of soldiers who had died in the battle of dead 

it's mouth was opened wide and the fire burned to take his soul 

but with Notrum the magic sword he will fight until his dead. 

and then the battle began 

Siegfried fought hard like a dog of the war 

and with the last strenght he had 

the sword runs into the dragons heard 

Fafnir: 

"From which tribe you come, who'd painted my hard red 

the dark steel is in me and burns my soul 

your sword was stronger, I'm defeated 

it's live must Fafnir leave now and forever." 

As the dragon lived no more 

Siegfried felt it's blood 

it was like a second skin 

where no steel came through 

so he put his body in the sea of blood 

but a lime-tree leaf felt on his back 

on that little place on the back 

he wasn't safe 

against the steel of the enemies 

he must face in future life 

there was silence in the land 

and he put his weapons on 

to tell his father what he'd done and to get his respect. 

After a while he left Xanten 

visit other foreign lands 

and he came to a realm called Nibelungen 

he heard from big treasures there 

which were safed by dwarfs and giants 

but his mind reached out for the Nibelungenhord
