Courage leads to heaven – “virtus in astra tendit” – is a famous Stoic quote by the Roman philosopher Seneca. It is also the title of the M8L8TH song from the “Black March Saga” album.
Read the poetic translation:
Courage leads to heavens,
Fear leads to death
With a taste of copper,
Bitter like disgrace.
Ashes of existence,
Will faded away
In the world that’s only
Bound to degrade.
I know we will vanish,
Perish in distress
Leaving only mythic
In the epics trace -
Epics of a people
That is long time gone,
Of the wind bewailing
Children left unborn.
Blood of pure Spirit
From the Tragic Era
Fills one’s veins with ire -
Doesn’t quench the thirst,
Summons into mire
Of the Time Forgotten,
Spilling blood as votive
To the Great Rebirth.
Triumph of a Hero
With a Heart of Steel.
Heroes never shiver
Although death is near.
Bringing back past glory,
By the Right of Might,
Times of Gods and Heroes
From the graves shall rise.
Courage leads to heaven.
Fear leads to Death.
Fear of Death is crushed by
Hero’s scourge of wrath.
Right of Force, is Right of Blood
Spiritual Core of life
Our Force is our Gods
Giving birth to hope in us.
