about

“Slansata na Momchil” (The Suns of Momchil) is an epic metal ballad telling the story of an important sea battle between the armies of Momchil the Brave and Umur Beg from the soldiers' perspective. An unity of life and death in lyrical harmony with emotional melodic vocals, folk instruments and powerful rhythm blasts. A dynamic folk metal piece meant to echo in the listeners’ soul.

lyrics

Две ярки слънца
Блестят и изгарят
Надеждата за спасение
Плътта ни в спомен превръщат

Две ярки слънца
Обръщат морето
В жарка гробница
На нашата алчна стихия

А третото слънце сме ние
В третото слънце трептиме
Месечината бледнее
И няма за нас да изгрее

А третото слънце сме ние
Нозе ни играят във него
Морето от мрамор сега е
Нашият последен пристан

Ах, как бих възкръснал
От своя сетен пост
Ала този кораб
Е към небето мост
Отплаваме бавно нагоре
И мачтите падат с тътен
Последната глътка живот е
Изгарящ вятър попътен

Ще ви настигнем по земя
Яхнали бели коне
И когато свърши тя
Огнено чистилище

И своя бог ще зовете
Участта си кълнете
Ридайте, покаяни отнесте
Вие право в своя гроб
Наш'та ярост, ваш'та скръб

Даже вълните горят без да стихват
Всевишни пази ни
И аратлици ми в пламъци чезнат
Всевишни прости ни

В третото слънце сме ние
Нозе ни играят в него
Месечината бледнее
И няма за нас да изгрее пак

English:

Two bright suns
They shine and burn
The hope for salvation
Transforms our flesh into memory

Two bright suns
They turn the sea
Into a hot tomb
Of our greedy element

And the third sun is us
In the third sun, we tremble
The moon fades
And it will not rise for us

And the third sun is us
Our feet dance in it
The sea is now made of marble
Our final haven

Oh, how I would rise
From my mournful fast
But this ship
Is a bridge to the sky
We sail slowly upward
And the masts fall heavily
The last gulp of life is
A scorching, companionable wind

We will reach you by land
Riding white horses
And when it's over
A fiery purgatory

And you will call upon your god
Swear your fate
Repent, carry it away
Right into your grave
Our rage, your sorrow

Even the waves burn without extinguishing
The Almighty guards us
And even the plowmen disappear in flames
May the Almighty forgive us

In the third sun, we are
Our feet dance in it
The moon fades
And it will not rise for us again
