Teardrop on a fragile eyelash
She's looking like a dream
Hoping for some understanding
And answer or at least
A calming word a single sentence
To restore her heart
Aching since the day I left her
Crossing lonely seas
Silent tears of a woman
Make a warrior cry Heaven, I beg you
Please release hopes from fears

This is my elegy
Do you know what I feel?
This is my elegy Do you believe it's real?
Will I hold you in my arms again? Dewdrops on a single rosebud
This purity of rain Reminds me of the moment I left herKisses filled with pain And if I should leave her waiting IV
For another year
Will she ever know the answer? Will she follow me?
Silent tears of a woman
Make a warrior cry
Heaven, I beg you
Please release hopes from fears
This is my elegy Do you know what I feel?
This is my elegy Do you believe it's real? Will I hold you in my arms..
Hold you in my arms again?
A calming word, a single sentence
To restore her heart
Aching since the day I left her
Crossing lonely seas `mx|usIzoo
This is my elegy U
Do you know what I feel?
This is my elegy Do you believe it's real?
Will I hold you in my arms again?
This is my elegy
Do you know what I feel?
Elegy
Do you believe it's real? Will I hold you in my arms again?

２００３年７月来自挪威首席歌特乐队THEATRE OF TRAGEDY(悲情剧院)的女主唱Liv Kristine Espenaes与德国死亡金属乐队ATROCITY(暴行)的主唱Alexander Krull走进了婚姻的殿堂,这被人们誉为是欧洲歌特摇滚史的一场戏剧性地结合.随后在THEATRE OF TRAGEDY推出带有浓厚Electro味及New Wave舞曲走向的[Assembly]后,令广大支持者失望至极,与乐队核心理念不合的Liv便宣布退出 Theatre Of Tragedy,人们的眼光也随之转移到这位歌特金属教母级人物的身上(要知道THEATRE OF TRAGEDY的成功有一半要归功于她的歌声). 离团之后的Liv，一次与丈夫Alexander 在森林散步的途中，聊到艾伦坡以及莎士比亚的文学作品，两人一致认为这会是一个很好的音乐題材，Liv便开始组织这个音乐概念，而当时Atrocity的贝斯Chris Lukhaup也著手于一些歌曲的创作，而这些创作上的想法跟Liv不谋而合，不久后Atrocity整个乐队成员也被感染,相继投入到其中来,这样,一支全新的Gothic metal乐队-----Leaves' Eyes（叶之眼）便诞生了,乐队的名字正是来源于主唱Liv Kristine Espenaes的名字.
这张[Vinland Saga(迷境传说)]是Leaves' Eyes于2005年5月30日发行的第三张专辑,专辑以12世纪冰岛人记录的维京人英雄红发艾瑞克Erikson发现格陵兰岛的传奇为主题,同时描述了在家乡的女人渴望等候远航的爱人归来的故事及波涛汹涌的海洋和格陵兰岛迷人的原始风光.整张专辑延续了上张专[Lovelorn(黯然伤感)]的空灵回荡,从小曾经在古典声乐上下过功夫的Liv优美的声线配以Alexander的死亡金属唱腔,令人心旷神怡.他们的特別之处，除了一提再提Liv Kristine外，ARTOCITY的死金背景和他们本身已多元化的创作方法，令LEAVES' EYES的音乐时有一些新颖的時段不流同于歌特金属典型，某些旋律和合成器的音色也别具一格，并且再加入一些挪威的民间音乐元素，这些加起来便是一张令人耳目一新的歌特金属唱片，同时也是一首关于传奇/自然/浪漫/爱的摇滚诗歌。
恩。。怎么说呢。。这张专辑里我最喜欢elegy这首，借用Leaves' Eyes官网的一句话：“History gone rock!”
