walk the path of conquest - nachtgeblüt lyrics

Loading...

while stands my bold soul these roaring black storms
in hate against minstrels of sorrow and sloth
th’ old will-to-conquer my voice proudly exalts
with no friendly eyes summoning to war

rueful sights of fall’n souls confounding life
stripp’d of all dignity and thirst to fight
unmoved saw i to spread from the north
fading the gleam of the spear and the sword

i see now a way through our woods and their night
to walk there the paths of improvement and rise
to learn and advance from despair and from want
and to reach victory by forging new arms

so take all weights upon the wreckling back
and do defy the worst that can befall;
rejoicing in war, as in th’ steepest paths
my powers thus grow, my mind aims to might

the blind poet bespoke: “which way shall i fly
infinite wrath, and infinite despair?”
which way i fly is pride; myself am pride;
and may th’ low’st deep be in fact a hidd’n height
