Två ormar jag skådat i tjärnars spegling
Krälande som en i kallaste ljus
Mot månens gång nu steg denna hägring
Andar betraktade i svampens rus
Urgudars väsen och verklighet vävas
Mina ögon, min själ av synen nu kvävas
Då ryter ormar som horn nu dåna
Fradgar av sanningars kväde
Tvillingsmasken min kunskap håna
Blottar sin tidlösa vrede
Runt mig spänns nu dödens ring
Början och slutet av alla ting
Jag såg världar rasa
Falla bland stjärnors stoft
Slukas i dolda rymdens tjära
Befruktade i mörker som evigt tära
Bevittnade dess vilda dans
Allt det som evigt vandra
I en ring av dödens ljus
Föddes dess ändlösa anda
Då ryter ormar som horn nu dåna
Fradgar av sanningars kväde
Tvillingsmasken min kunskap håna
Blottar sin tidlösa vrede
Runt mig spänns nu dödens ring
Början och slutet av alla ting
[English translation:]
[Two Serpents]
I beheld two serpents in a pond's reflection
Creepy as the coldest light
The beast ascended towards the moon's orbit
Spirits were watching in the swamp's depths
The essence and substanciality of the ancient gods was weaved
My eyes, my mind were supressed from the sight
The serpents roar and bellow like a horn
Heads of the songs of truths
Twin worms sneer into my awareness
Uncover their ancient wrath
A ring of death spans around me
The beginning and end of every thing
I saw the worlds plummeting
Fall among the dust of stars
Swallowed into the tar of dark space
Impregnated in blackness that wastes forever
I witnessed their wild dance
Of all who wander forever
In a ring of deathly light
Their endless spirit was born
The serpents roar and bellow like a horn
Heads of the songs of truths
Twin worms sneer into my awareness
Uncover their ancient wrath
A ring of death spans around me
The beginning and end of every thing
The lyrics TVÅ ORMAR of FINNTROLL is also present in the album Blodsvept (2013)
Finntroll è una band finlandese di extreme metal e folk metal proveniente da Helsinki. Il loro stile musicale fonde elementi di black metal, death metal e folk metal con un tipo di musica popolare finlandese chiamato humppa. I testi di Finntroll sono principalmente in svedese, con l'eccezione della canzone "Madon Laulu" presente nell'album "Visor Om Slutet". Il primo cantante Katla ha scelto lo svedese rispetto al finlandese perché faceva parte di una minoranza di madrelingua svedese in Finlandia e il suono della lingua sembrava più adatto all'immagine "trollesca" del gruppo. Nonostante diversi cambi di vocalist, questa tradizione è continuata fino ad oggi. Finntroll è considerata una delle band folk metal più influenti, con un sound unico che fonde aggressività musicale con melodie tradizionali finlandesi. Tra i brani più rappresentativi si ricordano "Jaktens Tid", "Blodsvept" e "Trollhammaren".
