Перевод песни Samael - The shadow of the sword

Listen!
This is a true story,
Based on reality
A mass of frenzy,
A poison sold as remedy

They tell you knowledge is a curse
But ignorance ain’t bliss
They tell you love one another
While waging war for peace

Delusion, fraud and deception
The foundation of religion

Is it that holy to decide to be
Nothing but a shadow of a man?
Trading life with death,
Mixing lies with hope and
Living in the shadow of the sword

Middle age in the 21st century
Struggling to survive modernity
Trapped in a time
Оf obscurantism
Where minds rely
Оn archaism

Arrogance, wealth and violence
The trinity of monotheism

Is it that holy to decide to be
Nothing but a shadow of a man?
Trading life with death,
Mixing lies with hope and
Living in the shadow of the sword
Is it that holy, tell me, to decide to be
Nothing more than a shadow of a man?
Trading life with death,
Mixing lies with hope and
Living in the shadow of the sword

Arrogance, wealth and violence
The trinity of monotheism
Arrogance, wealth and violence
The trinity of monotheism

Is it that holy to decide to be
Nothing but a shadow of a man?
Trading life with death,
Mixing lies with hope and
Living in the shadow of the sword
