Las nèus que’s son apieladas
Sus las terraubas peladas
Un predator dab l’alet torrat
Rondaleja encarat
Qu’ei vengut entà’ns gahar
Mes qu’avem pro de qué har
Passar l’ivèrn qui a mestrejat
L'escur tot embrumat
Aquiu comença la longa nueit
Qu’èm a l’argüèit
Ganhar o pèrder lo combat
Clavats, dab los hrairs
Nosauts qu'atendem los arrrais
On s'ei l’astre blós esgarrat ?
Lo qui avem tant esperat
Abelion, Abelion, qu’èi besonh de ta claror
Halhas vermelh tà guardar noste desvelh
Abelion, Abelion, hè’ns renaixer hens l'esplendor
Gavida’ns à l’esguit deu só, t’ac pregam, Abelion
La busca qu’ei au brasèr
Dab era se torna l’espèr
Las hlamas que’ns dan lo verdigòu
Au bèth miei de l’aròu
Aquiu s’acaba la longa nueit
Tirem un trèit
Anem ! Tornem gahar lo hat
Un navèth arsec, com un eslambrec
D’un còp sec ! Un huec
Enlugarnant lo blat
Aprigat d’un rebat daurat
(FR)
Les neiges se sont amassées
Sur les terres calcaires dénudées
Un prédateur au souffle glacé
Rôde, déterminé
Il est venu pour nous prendre
Mais nous avons trop à faire
Passer l’hiver qui s’est fait maître
De l’obscurité, toute embrumée
Ici commence la longue nuit
Nous sommes sur nos gardes
Gagner ou perdre le combat
Silencieux, avec les frères
Nous attendons les rayons
Où s'est égaré l'astre pur?
Celui que nous avons tant attendu
Abelion, Abelion, j’ai besoin de ta clarté
Brûle vermeil pour préserver notre éveil
Abelion, Abelion, fais nous renaître dans la splendeur
Guide-nous, au lever du soleil, nous t'en prions, Abelion
La bûche est dans le brasier
Avec elle, revient l’espoir
Les flammes nous donnent le vertige
Au beau milieu du cercle
Ici s’achève la longue nuit
Tirons un trait
Allons ! Reprenons notre destin
Un nouvel élan, comme un éclair
Tout d’un coup ! Un feu
Illuminant le blé
Couvert d’un reflet doré
(EN)
The snow has gathered
On the naked limestone plains
A predator with an iced breath
Formidable, determined
He has come to take us away
But we have too much to be getting on with
Making it through winter, the master
Of obscurity, shrouded in mist
Here starts the long night
We are on our guard
Win or lose the fight
Silently, with our brothers
We wait for the beams
Where has the celestial monarch been hiding?
That which we have been so waiting for
Abelion, Abelion, I need your brightness
Beam your silver light to keep us awake
Abelion Abelion, rebirthed in splendour
Guide us, at dawn, we beg you Abelion.
The log burns in the raging fire
With it, hope returns,
The flames make us dizzy
In the middle of the circle
Here, ends the long night
Draw a line under it,
Come now! Let’s take our destiny back in hand
A new momentum, like a thunderbolt
In a flash ! A fire
Lighting up the wheat
Covered in a golden hue

Boisson Divine is a folk metal band from Gascony (France), an alliance of Gascogne identity and heavy metal. A fusion
between tradition and modernity, sung either in French or the regional dialect.
The texts are a reflection of the daily lives of the musicians : rugby, legends, songs to the land, rural solidarity, feasts, traditional songs, preserving heritage and tributes to historical figures....more
A Pagan black metal masterpiece.
Folk and black metal elements fuse into one extremely catchy and awe inspiring album. This band does not disappoint from all the high praise sent it's way. Abyssius Murkraken
Fav: Burceau. Trad metal is like Sabbathian stoner; everyone loves it so much that there are a billion bands devoted to it, and that means a lot of samey. You really need some spice to stand out. Herzel have that spicy secret sauce. Everyone can do a galloping line, but is it adventurous? Unexpected melodic turns like turning a cobbled street corner to see a mighty vista? Soaring lines that stir your blood? Extra points for whatever that horn/brass instrument was, it fit right in. Hail Herzel! pinkytheent
Bridging Nordic black metal with traditional Celtic folk, the Idaho crushers forge heavy music with a heroic medieval spirit. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 11, 2023
Heart, hope, and humility come together with stellar songwriting and performances to make a uniquely uplifting and wonderful power metal album. bigzoinks
