The curse of northern seas

Dark days again returned to me
They black out sunny morn.
Clouds float above the Nordic Sea
Like souls of ships which torn.

Only the sea surrounds me.
Not man, not birds and beasts.
Only cold wind of memory
Blows through a heart in breast.

A distant moment of that day
When I was young and strong.
My brig was from the coast away
I’ve made a so much wrong.

Once in the spring I’ve grasped the ship
There was a blind man of sorrow view.
I’ve joked told - that if I’ll kill him -
“The death will not seem strange to you.”

“The young red witch will revenge for me”
He has answered me as if a breeze.
“You’re be the next on a growing tree
Of damnations, hopes and despondencies”.

Old man answers that I'll be weeping
If I have haughty to my end.
A wrath in empty eyes he's keeping
He spoke with me bad. I'm then

Has thrust my blade into his heart
And blood has filled on all the deck.
Like red color’s of a flame which have
Soon burnt the ship under my wick.

But then I often felt his curse
About red witch is she was done.
After he has made evil for us
Having killed other man who it began.

The spring is better time for ghosts
And others devil creatures like is -
Red witch, and now she flies so fast
To me with the axe's the King of Vikings.

But suddenly a blue hand from sea depth
Has stretched to me a sword of sunk monks
"From the Red witch" - has whispered me lips-
"Salvations if you'll be a very strong!"

The battle has begun on deck my brig,
But crew's each man was burned bright fire.
I've not felt harm, the flame only licks
And the magic sword beat hard and highly.

The Red Witch battles with wild fury.
The mad axe fights in brightly sparks.
Hers red hair without female care
Were crazy as hers green fire eyes.

During our fight I have asked Red Witch
"Who was the man who it began?"
She smiled pearls and answered of the speech-
"Descendant of husband who's name Adam".

Four spring I were against the Red Witch,
Alone in wide the northern seas.
At the fifth spring I've got a mortal kiss
From the eternal ghost which isn't knowing defeats.

Kill me, kill me among the northern seas
I'm so tired under a burden of my feelings.
My soul wants outside to home on the east
In a coastal wind of rest and disappearing.

And though I've fallen before God low
I’ve found a force and have a meal.
I’ll never be a happy anymore
But I understood the global evil.

And no is exit for us that to be.
Axe will not lose, sword will not win.
Lead waves of madness of Nordic Sea
Are heavy as my deadly sins
