Die Schwarzen Reiter [English translation]

I am the demon, Satan.

I am the abominable and demented One1.

Who in this late hour rides upon wind and night?

It is the Dark Horsemen2who ride tonight.

They are on a quest for the long lost Golden Band

For which they must traverse thru realms of darkness3to obtain.

Like the tempest, they stride above the land

Dark silhouettes with infernal murmurings

Stampeding hooves clears all in its path

All tremble at the sound of their dreadful cries.

Run for your lives, run!

Should mountains quake and lands break apart

Run, run for your lives!

I am the demon, Satan.

I am the abominable and demented One.

Run for your lives!

They are riding!4They are searching for the Golden Band of the tides.

That which empowers the Dark Horsemen.

What hovers like gale force winds

Or sounds of the rumbling thunder over darkened skies?

It is the warriors of the dark power

Swords radiate thru the dread of night

Unless everything that was lost is found,

They will vow to reek horrid5vengeance forever.

Run for your lives, run!

Should mountains quake and lands break apart

Run, run for your lives!

I am the demon, Satan.

I am the abominable and demented One.

Run for your lives!

They are riding! They are searching for the Golden Band of the tides.

That which empowers the Dark Horsemen.
