On the day of the dark sky
My darling said to me
go push back the blight
and don't ask me why

My duty is heavier than a mountain
my death is as light as a feather
we'll push the darkness back
and nevermind the weather

On the day of the dark sky
My darling said to me
go push back the blight
and don't ask me why

Go out with your mace and sword
because death is yours to wield
and you'll come home successful
or you'll come home on your shield

On the day of the dark sky
My darling said to me
go push back the blight
and don't ask me why

I walked into the blight
the darkness to push back
I thought about my bride
and of her wearing black

On the day of the dark sky
My darling said to me
go push back the blight
and don't ask me why

From Shayol Ghul to Ebou Dar
We'll keep the darkone in his grave
from day to night and dark to light
from boy to man and knight to knave

On the day of the dark sky
My darling said to me
go push back the blight
and don't ask me why
