In the twilight
We are gathered
Waiting to see
A glimpse of paradise

In the twilight
Chains now rattle
Screams of agony
We´re all eyes

See the king's knight,
Priests and followers
Preparing their feast
Their torches burning bright

See the king's knight
Choose among the prisoners
This one will die before day light!

The gates will open at sunrise
The prisoners will be brought out
They will pay for their sins now
And make the crowd scream and shout

First confessions and burning fire
- Hallelujah -
Then they will be judged before the lord
Gypsies, witches, thieves and murderers
The celebration starts afterwards

In the dark night no
One pays attention
The music is loud
The celebration´s on

In the dark night
Chains now rattle
They´ve come to take away
Your only son

The gates will open at sunrise
The prisoners will be brought out
They will pay for their sins now
And make the crowd scream and shout

First confessions and burning fire
- Hallelujah -
Then they will be judged before the lord
Gypsies, witches, thieves and murderers
The celebration starts afterwards
