Tells the legend, there's a magic place   That could nobody find its trace   Land of darkness, land of forlorn songs   Where all is mystic all along      [The Traveller]   Where I am? Lost in the stream   Is it real or a dream?   My stunned mind listens to a call   Like a spirit into crystal ball   But in depth, I see a gleam   Fearful I'll follow the beam   With the shadows I will brawl   So I will arrive to the light hall      Dark Moor, Dark Moor   Welcome to the Dark Moor   Dark Moor, Dark Moor   Welcome to the Hall      [Spirit of the Art]   Who comes in the Hall of Olden Dreams?   [The Traveller]   I listen to a voice in my head   [Spirit of the Art]   Speak! And then I just could deem   [The Traveller]   I don't know why I am here   [Spirit of the Art]   I read in your fate   [Choir]   Choose your goodness! Choose your badness!   [Spirit of the Art]   You must cross the gate!   [Devil of Greed]   It is too late   [The Traveller]   Yes! I obey the command   Find the gate in Shadowland   If my destiny it wrote   Only the trust wants it to denore      Dark Moor, Dark Moor   Welcome to the Dark Moor   City of the dreams, where is its gateway?   Dark Moor, Dark Moor   Welcome to the Dark Moor   Among gothic gargoyles always the Art stays   Dark Moor, Dark Moor   Welcome to the Dark Moor   Sleeping in the darkness there's a light   Dark Moor, Dark Moor   Welcome to the Dark Moor   Bathing like moon in the silent night      [Choir]   Care with the nice evil lies   Because the greed never dies   Care with the sweet false promise   Which proclaims the paradise      [Spirit of the Art]   Don't listen to it's false word   Moreover don't fight with it's bejewelled sword   And ever don't play in its black rich board   Remember      [The Traveller]   Who's there in the dark?   [Devil of Greed]   I'm who keeps the ark   [The Traveller]   Why do you talk me?   [Devil of Greed]   Your friend I could be   [The Traveller]   Why'll I trust in you?   [Devil of Greed]   It would be a good view   [The Traveller]   Move away! With your false hopes   [Devil of Greed]   Your illusions are your slope   [The Traveller]   You don't try to cross my way   [Devil of Greed]   Riches you can not slay   [The Traveller]   Perhaps I cannot win   Nor a new world begin   But now and ever in my heart the Art will be my sin      Dark Moor, Dark Moor   Welcome to the Dark Moor   Sleeping in the darkness there's a light   Dark Moor, Dark Moor   Welcome to the Dark Moor   Bathing like moon in the silent night      [The Traveller]   I can see   In my soul   The gate's before me   Mystery's real   My destiny      [Devil of Greed]   You won't free   [The Traveller]   Let me go   [Devil of Greed]   You can't flee!   [The Traveller]   No!   I am falling slow      [The Traveller]   Then I crossed the Gates of Oblivion   In the dark moor my spirit could fly   I am glad about my decision   As my word could always testify   With the Muses I danced in the night   Beneath the full Moon I felt the Spell      And its poetry gave me its fine old bite   And I could never say farewell   And the music in my heart   Filled my illusions with the Art   And the angels showed me   Which is the way of the stars      [Choir]   Like a dream immortal   You crossed the dark Portal   You will be blasphemer, deemer, dreamer   This is the gift of the Gods   Which for men will be odd   This is the dream of the demons who envy it      [The Traveller]   Oh! In the end of time   Muses teach me that I'm   Who choose my truth forever   Oh! Spirit of the Art   If my soul must depart   My mind will stay with you   [Spirit of the Art]   Poet of the dark glance   In your eyes a romance   With it I dance   Musician of the dreams   [The Traveller]   My inspiration will be   All the strength of my destiny   I wake up and my throat screams   Was it real or a dream   But why's tears there in my eyes?
