Old Age Of Wonders Lyrics - Rhapsody Of Fire

Over the mountains the first lights of dawn 

the rocks around are covered by snow 

Iras Algor: "Come here my friends, enjoy this last view 

the sunlight's reflections, the shy fading moon 

Many legends told by the jesters 

were inspired by the facts 

of a time now forever gone 

when our friends the elves lived in these lands 

when our friends the elves lived in these lands" 

old age of wonders, of elvish emotion 

proudly survived in the myst of the stars 

magical dawns, holy vision of angels 

long time before the elvish wars 

old age of wonders, of elvish emotion 

proudly survived in the myst of the stars 

magical dawns, holy vision of angels 

long time before all 

the elvish wars 

"During the first six primordial wars 

the elves found shelter between these wild rocks 

at that time this region known as Irith 

was green, majestic, heaven on earth 

When the sixth war was sadly lost 

for elves and unicorns this meant the fall 

Nekron found a new reign to rule 

so woods and flowers decided to die 

rivers and falls became suddenly dry 

from that time the cold darkness reigned 

the darklands became what they are today 

the darklands became what they are today" 

old age of wonders, of elvish emotion 

proudly survived in the myst of the stars 

magical dawns, holy vision of angels 

long time before the elvish wars 

old age of wonders, of elvish emotion 

proudly survived in the myst of the stars 

magical dawns, holy vision of angels 

long time before all 

the elvish wars
