Intro

This is an old track from pre-Këkht Aräkh era, when the project was named Yokai. The song was recorded in 2015 and released only 7 years after, on a compilation “Domains of the Deceased” by Livor Mortis.

The lyrics to the song were written by my friend, as my knowledge of English back then was too poor to write any. They were inspired by Japanese folklore and history.

Home-made, unintentionally raw and sloppy, with lyrics full of grammar and spelling mistakes — this is what the project was like in its early days.

The track is available on the major streaming platforms.

Yokai - Between Eerly Howls Of Wind

Still wandering in the night…
(Still wandering in the night)

(Life’s eternal, I travel on my own)

…
Life’s eternal (life’s eternal)
And it fades slowly
I travel on my own (I travel on my own)

And this is my story (my story)
Or was it a dream only
Thought I’ve never seen one
 
For you I play my songs tonight (my songs)
I know I play with my soul (my soul)
I blame my world and I
Crave the new one
In the night I go
Whip it on

Still wandering in the night, Pale Swordsman

(Flowers faded but the thorns still sharp)
… still sharp

The clouds at rest (the clouds at rest)
And the moon is high (high)
Flowers faded
But the thorns still sharp (still sharp)

Flowers faded
And my sword is blunt (is blunt)
I cut the night and I let the stars out

Cast a spell and say a prayer thrice (thrice)
I turn my pain into gold (into gold tonight)
There’s the castle of love in sight
Calling me home…

(For you I play my songs tonight)
(I know I play with my soul)
(I blame my world and I crave the new one)
… for the new one

White rose thorns, c’mon

Wanderer

Livet var ingenting mer än en dröm
Livet var ingenting mer än en dröm
Livet var ingenting mer än en dröm
Livet var ingenting mer än en dröm
Livet var ingenting

Winds are blowing with no sound
Everlasting winter all around        	  
Flowers begging for the light
Swordsman wandering in the night

Nothing’s real as it may seem
Sleep tight, life was but a dream

Sorrow’s wearing out my heart
Chased by shadows from the start
Lies prevail, truth to be denied
Swordsman wandering in the night

Nothing’s real as it may seem
Sleep tight, life was but a dream

Lovers hiding under trees
Darkness covers up their sins
Wicked kingdom, there’s no love
Darkness covers up its flaws

Livet var ingenting mer än en dröm
Livet var ingenting mer än en dröm
Livet var ingenting mer än en dröm
Livet var ingenting mer än en dröm
Livet var ingenting
