Wächter vor dem Tor [English translation]

Watch alone, the day goes down

Let time be a silent witness, O guard before the gate

Watch alone, to drive out the fears

Let time be a silent witness, O guard before the gate

On the wing-beat of dusk

Once approached the darkness

On the wing-beat of dusk

The cold night came

And in the face of evening

The guard swore his oath

To protect his silver city in its deep sleep

Think of the words you once swore

Heed the door, guard before the gate

Think of the words you once swore

Heed the door, guard before the gate

On the wing-beat of dusk

The realm of shadows came up

On the wing-beat of dusk

Came the cold night

And trapped in the shadows, the guard forgot his oath

To protect his silver city in its deep sleep

Think of the words you once swore

Heed the door, guard before the gate

Think of the words you once swore

Heed the door, guard before the gate

Watch alone, the night goes down

Let time be a silent witness, O guard before the gate

Watch alone, to drive out the fears

Let time be a silent witness, O guard before the gate

Like a silver moonbeam

The guard came in the darkness

When a silver moonbeam hit him in the cold night

In the light of memory, he remembered his oath

To protect his silver city in its deep sleep

Think of the words you once swore

Heed the door, guard before the gate

Think of the words you once swore

Heed the door, guard before the gate

Guard before the gate
