The Antidote Lyrics

How does one tame this barbarian uncouth land?

The swines, whose brute language is impossible to understand

Have I not served you, with all of my life

False idols are smothered in white

Why am I sentenced to stay in exile

Bells toll upstream Aathra's sides

In the midst of scorpions - as the antidote and the guide

Let thy anger be my sword - designated wisdom and light

Wisdom and light

In slavic wasteland he was placed

In degradation's face

Through all resistance and grudge, he endeavored

In dark bedeviled times

With unswerving will of mind

Through resistance he strove to mend the future for us all

Code and the ways of the almighty I am here to enforce

Word, sophistication for ye wretches obtuse and coarse

Have I not fulfilled the work of my life

The academy's founding I saw

Why am I sentenced to die in exile

The cathedral's grace I restored

In the midst of scorpions - As the antidote, and the guide

Let thy honor be my torch - Designated wisdom and light

In slavic wasteland he was placed

In degradation's face

Through all resistance and grudge he endeavored

In dark bedeviled times

With unswerving will of mind

Through resistance he strove to mend the future for us all

Skull of the bear is exhausted, citizens are aligned

His words did serve as the antidote against the heathen guiles

On a starlit winter's night arrived, the moment of his final sigh

Hereafter he from this contempt was peacefully redeemed
