lyrics

Выйдет Солнце из ворот,
Путь Ладьи Небесной - год
В облачных морях пройдёт,
Восемь раз пир созовёт.

Был повержен змей лихой
Война юного рукой,
И взошёл царь молодой
На трон млечною тропой.

Девою-Зарёй пленён,
С ней в цвету танцует он,
В сердце он зажёг огонь
Папоротника цветком! ...

...

Тяжелеют ветви древ,
Жатвы час сменяет сев,
Сладок пир, багрян закат,
И кружится листопад.

Ход времён не превозмочь -
Сердца жар погасит ночь,
Змей расправит крылья тьмы,
Отворит Врата Зимы.

Но герой родится вновь,
И огнём займётся кровь,
Солнце выйдет из ворот,
Восемь раз пир созовёт.

-------------------------------------------

The sun will come out of the gate,
Path of the Heavenly Shallop, a year
Will pass in the seas of clouds,
Eight times it will convene the feast.

Slashing serpent was defeated
By the hand of a young warrior,
And young king has ascended
The throne by the milky trail.

Captivated by Dawn-Maiden,
He dances with her in bloom,
He lit a fire in the heart
With the fern flower!

...

Tree branches are getting heavier,
Sowing is replaced by harvest hour,
Feast is sweet, sundown is scarlet,
And leaf fall spins around.

Course of time cannot be overcome –
The night will quench the heat of the heart,
Serpent will spread the wings of dark,
It will open the Gates of Winter.

But the hero will be born again,
And the blood will go on fire,
The sun will come out of the gate,
Eight times it will convene the feast.

about

Alkonost image

Alkonost Naberezhnye Chelny, Russia

The band's history began in the second half of 1995, when Andrey Losev decided to start his own project. His attention was drawn to medieval music and Russian folk melodies. One year later, in August 1996, Alkonost was born. In over 20 years, the band has gone through many changes, but its unique sound and special atmosphere remained, being the band's distinctive features for all that time. ... more
