Ode An Die Freude

The Dark Tenor

Compositor: Bernd Wendlandt / Marcus Winther-John / PHILIPP SCHARDT / The Dark Tenor / Thomas Olbrich

Enter darkness
A life from dusk till dawn
Last night leaves us
Where we feel so torn
We can't go back if we try
Although it's black, we'll survive
Bold like fire
From the ash we rise

Freude schöner Götterfunken
Tochter aus Elysium
Wir betreten feuertrunken
Himmlische, dein Heiligtum
Deine Zauber binden wieder
Was die Mode streng geteilt
Alle Menschen werden Brüder
Wo dein sanfter Flügel weilt

Still the flame grows
Stranded in the night
Casting shadows
In the silver light
All angels fall in the end
Together here we were sent
From the fire
We were meant to rise

Freude schöner Götterfunken
Tochter aus Elysium
Wir betreten feuertrunken
Himmlische, dein Heiligtum

From the fire
We were meant to rise
From the fire

Freude schöner Götterfunken
Tochter aus Elysium
Wir betreten feuertrunken
Himmlische, dein Heiligtum
