xynfonica - from your father's skull lyrics
many years ago
when the lombards did sojourn on the pallonian plains
king cunnimund of the earthborn gepids
did incife war, breaking ancient pacts
audwins’ son, alboin, the lombard king
sent envoys to the mighty huns
offering them all the pannonian plain
if they joined them at war against the gepids
together the huns and the lombards
smote the gepids and king cunnimund
from the dead king’s skull alboin fashioned
a drinking cup, to be his trophy
gunnimund’s daughter, fair rosamund
was enchanting alboin’s eye
he craved to have her as her wife
to test her love, he commanded her
drink, my darling, from your father’s skull
prove you love me most of all!
i would test if your love is true
do you love me as much as i love you?
rosamund sipped the wine
from her dead father’s skull
alboin took this as
a sign of her love for him
rosamund, he decreed
should become his new wife
sharing his royal bed
as queen of the lombards
alboin made good
of his promise to the huns
to let them have all
of pannonia’s fertile plains
the lombards have moved west
to northern italy
there they settled conquering
all that lay in their path
alboin’s brother, hialmgeir
craved alboin’s throne and wife
rosamund knew this well
she saw a chance to take revenge
meeting in secret
rosamund and hialmgeir hatched a plot
to bind alboin while he slept
and then k!ll him when he awoke
that night albain came to the chamber
bearing with him, cunnimund’s skull
filled with wine, he drank from it
then, to his wife, he said
drink, my darling, from your father’s skull
prove you love me most of all!
i would test, if your love is true
do you love me as much as i love you?
rosamund sipped the wine
then the two made love
then the two fell asleep
rosamund chained alboin
with fetters to his bed
so that he could, in no way
escape from certain death
hialmgeir then summoned
his bodyguard frothi
to k!ll alboin when the king
awoke from his doomed sleep
frothi cut off the head
of helpless king alboin
hialmgeir now had become king
rosamund, his new wife
when the sad news reached the lombards
they rose in revolt against the usurper
hialmgeier had to flee with ravenna
taking with him queen rosamund
hialmgeier now, had outlived
his usefulness to rosamund
she added poison to his wine
when he drank from cunnimund’s skull
hialmgeier drank the poisoned wine
sensing treason, he drew his sword
pressing the blade against the throat of rosamund
he ordered her
drink, my darling, from your father’s skull
prove you love me most of all!
i would test if your love is true
do you love me as much as i love you?
