[Verses by Demether; music by Anastasia & Eugen] Germanareh narrateth to Isabelle’s spirit the story of His life, when She has come to Him for ever. Her spirit has set off to the world of her favourite king after the burning on sacrificial bonfire, - mayhap Love has connected these two, so different, hearts: devilly dark-fathomed serpent and light morning windflaw, washing the wings of seraphim. Isabelle and Germanareh stride in a wood having embraced, and pearl flowers grow from under Her steps, as though the sky is clarified on an instant from Her delightful, already unearthly, sight, but a Shadow, which has hung above the king, still darkens the surrounding world... Melodies Of Splintered Hearts “I’ve lived with you in thy last days I saw thy death, I felt the pain But I’m immortal, I’m a slave I found my way in splendid grave I’m lord of earth, I’m god of sword I am the master of the world I was a tsar, I was a khan I won all wars that I began My history is very long I’ve lived through ages but I am still alone Well I’ll lead thee through the time Across the dismal world of mine I hear the sound of daemonic bell ‘Tis time to tell thee fabled tale “I’ll live with you forevermore Though you are only dreamy ghost My heart is full of crystal love My soul is ever lost!†But hark ‘tis sound of the bell And time hath come to tell the tale And thou wilt grasp my eon life Let ‘t wouldn’t show thee as the lie†“Thy hand in mine and I am calm For many moonless centuries...

I wished to possess the heart of Slavonic princess But I don’t conceive the wight power of Aryan sons Pending was the bridal night I descried that ‘t is meretrix – My child wife wasn’t vestal and my sword efforced her soul, minx Her brothers heard about my Irremissible direful villainy Their glorious and dauntless arm Had scuttled us to th’ four winds “Their bestowal for peace was our merited death!†I all stricken and tatters of my people Went to plod under the weight of hurts Towards the west En route I deceased beshrewing the Slavs; My bone rest Upon that wooded embreastment, it laves In piercing rains (many perpetual centuries), But my martial and rebellious spirit not knoweth The soothing rest...
