Volhv (The Sorcerer)

English Version Lyrics

The Sorcerer

Verse1
In the shadow of primeval woods.
The sorcerer lives in solitude.
He reads ancient scrolls written in mystic runes.
He’s old like the Earth, he’s grey like the Moon,
The wizard’s dark eyes are full of gloom.
He forsees the coming of rigorous doom.

Refrain
Magic is disappearing
Forevermore and without a trail
Endless suffering’s leaving
The Magician’s black eyes day by day.

Verse2
The Sorcerer sees the dawn of new day
That cruelly rules by fire and sword
But he can’t prevent the old prophecy’s reign..

Bridge1(in Ukrainian)

Bridge2
The day will come when magic
Spells lose their power
You must know that wizard’s life
Is also over.
Look at the stars
That glow above the night
Try to find the flame
Of mage’s eyes inside your heart

Refrain
Magic is disappearing
Forevermore and without a trail
Life and pain are leaving
The Magician’s black eyes day by day.
