Lyrics: Finsterwacht
Die Flammen lodern hoch hinauf
zum Himmel schwarz und fern
ein Mahnmal in der Dunkelheit
jedes Feuer ist ein Stern
Nehmt Abschied Freunde
singt noch ein letztes Lied
Schild an Schild gemeinsam in die Nacht
auf der Finsterwacht.
Stumme Helden ohne Rast
Die Blicke scharf wie Stahl
Vereint, von Todesmut beseelt
stehn wir hier ein letztes Mal
Seid wachsam Freunde
Die Schatten sind erwacht
Schild an Schild gemeinsam in die Nacht
Und steht die Welt in Flammen
will ich mit euch durchs Feuer gehen
bis unsre Asche sich vereint - in Ewigkeit
Und steht die Welt in Flammen
dann werden wir uns wiedersehen
jenseits von hier, jenseits der Zeit
Feuer lodern empor
wir sind das Licht in der Nacht
Rondra, erhör unsern Chor,
komm steh uns bei, denn wir sind die Wacht.
Brüder, Habt Acht
auf der Finsterwacht
seid der Schildwall am Ende der Welt
Haltet den Turm
auch im Orkensturm
steht zusammen, denn wir sind die Wacht!

[@Skarthrak]

If you're in the need for a translation, I'm gladly of support 🤘 Lyrics of “Finsterwacht” = “Darkwatch” [intro] Darkness weighs heavily on the land The looming peaks of the mountains rise ominously into the sky After all these years it's back, that eerie whisper in the night What is hidden there in the dark forests? A storm is coming, it is getting cold on the Dark Ridge But there is hope For in the midst of all this gloom, the Guardians of the Watch stand high up on the towers Day after day, night after night Ready to defend our families and our country with their lives When they light their fires, the Goddess has mercy on us It is the fires of fear that burn there May the heroism of the Guard shine brighter than the light of the flames Because they are our last bastion from what lurks for us in the shadows And our hope there on the Finsterwacht [Verse 1: Alea] The flames burn high up The sky is black and distant A memorial in the darkness Every fire is a star Say goodbye friends Sing one last song Sign after sign together into the night On the Darkwatch [Verse 2: Hansi Kürsch] Silent heroes without rest The looks sharp as steel United, inspired by the courage to die Let's stand here one last time Be vigilant friends The shadows have awakened Sign after sign together into the night [Chorus: Alea & Hansi Kürsch] And the world is on fire I want to go through the fire with you Until our ashes unite for eternity And the world is on fire Then we'll see each other again Beyond here, beyond time [Instrumental Break] [Chorus: Alea & Hansi Kürsch] And the world is on fire I want to go through the fire with you Until our ashes unite For eternity And the world is on fire Then we'll see each other again Beyond here, beyond time For eternity [Bridge: Choir, Hansi Kürsch & Alea] Fires flare up We are the light in the night Rondra, hear our choir Come stand with us, for we are the guard Friends, be careful (fires blazing) On the Darkwatch Be the shield wall at the end of the world (We are the light in the night) Hold the tower (Rondra, hear our choir) Also in Orkensturm Stand together for we are the watch (Come stand with us for we are the watch) Friends, be careful (fires blazing) On the Darkwatch Be the shield wall at the end of the world (We are the light in the night) Hold the tower (Rondra, hear our choir) Also in Orkensturm Stand together for we are the watch (Come stand with us for we are the watch) [Chorus: Alea & Hansi Kürsch, only Hansi Kürsch] And the world is on fire I want to go through the fire with you Until our ashes unite Forever (Forever) And the world is on fire Then we'll see each other again Beyond here, beyond time For eternity

[@AP-RSI]

There must be a version with subtiltles, because I saw already a reaction with it!

[@DargorHSK]

​@@AP-RSIEven better. They released the song in English. "Darkenguard" enjoy!

[@AP-RSI]

@@DargorHSK Didn't know... Great! I see Saltatio Mortis in August live! 😉

[@DargorHSK]

@@AP-RSI enjoy. The new songs kick ass live. Even "Schwarzer Strand" which I didn't really like on CD. I saw them last Thursday in Esslingen. With my firstborn (nine years old, his first concert), 20 years after my first lived show of them...

[@AP-RSI]

@@DargorHSK They're playing at the MPS in Spyer in August and I don't live far away. I'm already looking forward to it!

[@radenstorf]

The upcoming album "Finsterwacht" will be part of the "Das Schwarze Auge" Universe, a very popular p&p tabletop game, like d&d. There will be a novel, written (exclusively for the box) by Bernhard Hennen, the guy you see dieing first. There will also be an adventure written for the game. I've never played it, so I can't tell you more about it (I'm sure others will chime in). Loved your reaction, I'm just surprised that you didn't catch Hansi singing. And there will be more coops on the album, notably the Prague Symphonic Orchestra. And you missed the easter egg at the end! (For those who don't speak German, subtitles are available for the video now)

[@AtlantisMaja]

I could only hear Hansi sing one line in the video (minute 7:12). His passage from the album version is taken over by Alea in the video.

[@asvagar8163]

the english name for DSA is The Dark Eye

[@fionarras4736]

About those old German Grenades, they had a self stabilizing ability like throwing axes due to the way they are thrown, which leads to a more precise throw direction wise as it's way tumbles in ellipsoidal. Because of that throwing axes only hit in certain lengths with their blade. You can look some of this up if you search for Franziska throwing axes.

[@Andy_from_de]

I lost it when you actually let the cedits roll and then side tracked yourself away from the post credit easter egg. :-D about the album: Saltatio Mortis have announced their new album, but it will be so much more than "just" an album. They have worked together with the authors of "Das Schwarze Auge" (basically the German pendant to DnD) and two German fantasy authors to create a Pen-and paper RPG fantasy novel folk metal concept album. Featured artists will be, among others, Hansi Kürsch, Faun, Tina Guo and Cristina Scabbia. Out May 31st. So I guess there's more to come...

[@Talkshowhorse_Echna]

You can find the german TTRPG "Das Schwarze Auge" in english under "The Dark Eye".

[@timespirit007]

The new Version had English Subtitles now! It´s Epic. Thanks for this Reaction Video

[@thomaskrebs9760]

I am so happy you reacted to that video from Saltation Mortis. As Radenstorf already told you its set in the world of the table top game "Das Schwarze Auge / the dark eye" and i play that game for nearly 20 years. So that whole new album set in that world is huge for me. The a capella part in the middle of the song. They sing to "Rondra" and she is one of the 12 gods in this world and she is the godess of honest fighting and courage!

[@maxpower7318]

I played DSA over 25 years ago, but the a capella part singing to Rondra still gives me chills. Still remember my favourite spell "Fulminictus-Donnerkeil - Schlaget drein, Schwert und Beil!"

[@fenrisulfur842]

thank the gods, I´m not the only weird old fucker around XD Glück gehabt

[@nickname_official]

... that's what happens after Oktoberfest. 😂😂😂 I love your comments. Greetings from northern Germany, where October is a normal month with a quite less amount of beer in the heads and venes of the people than in Bavaria same time. 😊😊🤘🏻

[@APREACTS]

Cheers

[@nickname_official]

@@APREACTS Thanks, I don't drink. I will enjoy my Rhabarberschorle instead. 😁

[@APREACTS]

I don’t drink either. 😁

[@RolfMeyer-cl7ou]

KAISERSWERT in Düsseldorf is amazing. i sit so many Times there, when i live 10 years in this place

[@auri9270]

The have added english subtitles. So you can listen to the full story of the video now 😀

[@TheEuronaut]

NOW we can push it to every reacter channel. 🤪

[@JohnTCampbell1986]

More compelling costumes, acting, sets and storyline than I've seen come out of Hollywood, Amazon and Netflix in the last 6-7 years. (Dune 2 possibly excluded, I'm seeing it tomorrow but I heard amazing things)

[@DERWUNDERBARE]

Germany has approximately 25,000 castles, while the United States has just over 14,000 McDonald's locations. That means that, on average, Germany has one castle for every 600 people, while the United States has one McDonald's for every 30,000 people. In other words, you're more than 50 times more likely to stumble upon a castle in Germany than you are to find a McDonald's in the United States.

[@APREACTS]

This is the information only the internet can provide

[@fionarras4736]

But one has to say that many of those castles are pretty tiny and better watch towers at best. But since the old German emperor's tended to travel to keep their power, many major cities had large Kaiserpfalzen or emperor's holdings,which were pretty awesome castles that could hold their entire court plus families and dignitaries. And they were always between 25-30 km apart. So think about 150+ big castles for the emperor alone, followed by up to 10 per king (and Germany had several) up to 2 per rank of nobility under them. Barons and Knight usually only had one castle and mostly smaller ones. But it adds up.

[@hexstatick3383]

Schnell schnell! Das Auto! Hahaha you guys killed me there 😂

[@APREACTS]

😁😁😁

[@fenrisulfur842]

Ah, the M24 Stielhandgranate, the Potato Masher ;)

[@fenrisulfur842]

You have to check out more of Blind Guardian! I first met them in a school bus, with a Walkman...they are around since the 80s, and one of the founders of what is called "Powermetal" I adore their early works, they are mostly influenced by JRR Tolkien and other fantasy lore. Check them out! I´d recommend "The Bards Song"👍

[@michaelbuttner4262]

Hansi Kürsch sing in german and it works

[@yvonnekapraun19]

Saltatio mortis sind so geil

[@metalmusicmeltdown]

Great Kalmah shirt 🤘🏻 criminally underrated band , their release last year was my album of the year

[@Anuta6675]

now we need an actual series of tests throwing a broom and a burning torch 😂

[@APREACTS]

That would be next level shit

[@straydog2478]

You guys arguing about grenades had me dying laughing. 😂

[@Akourius]

7:42 german can be such a language... nice singing

[@WingCommanderAE24]

[@marge2548]

Bremen has no Castle... unfortunately. 😂 Northern Germany is rather flat and devoid of rocks, so you'll have to go to the center, or the south to find a good one. The torch indicating oncoming intruders to the orcs was a plothole bothering me, too. As for the last action - apparently guy No. 1 thought he could stop the orcs if he stayed with the other 3 until they convinced him otherwise. As for the one getting up again - I think that was sort of a divine intervention. When they retreated to that closed room and started singing, this was sort of a prayer to the goddess of honourable and courageous fight to help them and stand by them in the last stand. Let's assume she did and provided the last survivor with enough strenght to perform the last sacrifice and light the beacon to inform the castles left and right (or before and behind) in the chain that there are orcs attacking the human settlements.

[@blykynqp]

there's not only mv2/2 energy but also a rotation energy, and you can hardly apply initial rotation to a round object like apple

[@RalfHulsmann-ro7gw]

BAND Elli Berlin Null Positiv Aus der Asche!

[@straydog2478]

Where are you guys from?

[@MB54321]

I hear bagpipes - i am sold for free. The song itself contains a little bit of everything: if we're to use automobile nomenclature, there are groovy parts on 5th gear and then you go down to 1st gear. But with folky vibes and choir it still wins. 4:03 hang on.. what Semir from "Kobra: Autobahn Polizei" is doing here?

[@maxpower7318]

Lol, i thought the same. Checked the credits, isn´t listed but I swear it´s him. Alarm für Cobra 11 was one my "guilty pleasures" in my earlym twens ;-)

[@fionarras4736]

They released an english version of the song last friday: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fYGyq6R_apyXaNU
