Sorry, forgot to add the song-titles, now edited. First one is from Gillman, the other one from Horcas.

Now, if this ain't a testimony of strength and a fist in the face of anything lame and false...

Our comrades in arms lying dead in the streets
From choking on metal that s spineless and weak
The Jackals are gloating, with victory in hand
But the last true believers rise up from the land

Howling our metal we light up the world
And the banner of Ungol is proudly unfurled
Raising our legion, and now you belong
And the point of the blade will be screaming our song

JOIN THE LEGION

Crushing the upstarts with steel in hand
Our forces together, and nothing can stand
The Legion of Chaos shall vanquish the wrong
And sweep them aside to make way for the strong

JOIN THE LEGION

That's probably my favorite song from that entire album.

You're walking down the gloomy path
Hear his screams of wrath!
No idea what you're about to see
Lying beneath the rotten tree

Your mind is starting to twist
Without a thought you will rise your fist
A rusty blade you will use
What you can't see is that you're being abused.

Sacrifices are being made
Oh, you will look so afraid!

Good lyrics !
The song "Solucion Suicida" was composed by Ricardo Chofa and Ricardo Iorio and recorded for Letal in 1984.

That Gillman song is probably one of the best lyrics ever.
One of my favorites (in spanish) is also this one, Resistiré, of Baron Rojo:

Criminales disfrazados,
Seres sin razón ni piedad
No hay palabras en el mundo
que definan vuestra maldad.
Por dinero asesináis.
Por placer aniquiláis.
Por poder nos destruís.
Suciamente mentís.
Aunque siempre vigiléis
Y mis datos proceséis
No es tan fácil hacerme callar
Resistiré.
Resistiré hasta el fin.
Resistiré.
Resistiré hasta el fin.
Ordenáis a los profetas
Que hablen de la guerra mundial.
Lleváis siglos maquinando
El final de la humanidad.
Y queréis hacer creer
Que os importa nuestro bien.
Pero oculta en el disfraz
Hay un arma mortal.
Nos Habláis de sumisión.
Nos pedís resignación.
Pero no me dejaré engañar.
Resistiré.
Resistiré hasta el fin.
Resistiré.
Resistiré hasta el fin.
Yo maldigo vuestro crimen.
Sé que lo tendréis que pagar.
Y no os servirá el dinero
Para remedir tanto mal.
Contra vuestra coacción.
Surgirá la reacción,
La sangrienta cuenta atrás
Se tendrá que parar.
Aunque siempre vigiléis
Y mis datos proceséis.
No es tan fácil hacerme callar.
Resistiré.
Resistiré hasta el fin.
Resistiré.
Resistiré hasta el fin.

If it's not been already mentioned....Nuclear Death's Carrion For Worms sickest lyrics ever.

Resurrecting this thread 'cos the following song is the only thing I've been listening to the last hour or so, one the greatest heavy metal tunes ever composed and from what I figured out from the use of some on-line translators , it has also one of the best, most sincere and touching lyrics that I ever read. I have already heard the song a thousand times over the years, but I haven't put it for some time, listening to it again today feels just like the first time. This stuff is fucking immortal. No more than 20 songs have hit me this hard. Play this at maximum volume at my fucking funeral, please.
If anyone who speaks the language can send me a good and accurate translation in english I'd be very grateful. Talking about Kraken's Todo Hombre Es Una Historia

Todo Hombre Es Una Historia

Dijeron que volvería
Tan pronto se le irían
las ganas de volar
Era un chico de mi barrio
que tildaban de ordinario
al no ser como los demás

Y con su pelo en hombros
se le escapó
un día a toda esa opresión

Nunca nadie se sentaba
a escuchar lo que pensaba
a nadie le importó
Era amante de la vida
de la música que un día
sus sueños despertó
Y con su pelo en hombros
se le escapó, un día a toda...

Mil historia se contaron
De aquel hombre que marcho
Ignorando el que dirá
No importando la razón

Paso el tiempo y me di cuenta
Que eran palabras necias
Porque él nunca se mintió
Paso el tiempo ha regresado
Trae ojos ya cansados
Más sus sueños realizó

I don't know about the lyrics but this song is classic indeed! My favorite track sung in Spanish/Portuguese for many, many years in the 90's. I don't know if still is on top, but definitely it is in the top five.

One of my favorite songs (for great lyrics but also for great music)
is "In my darkest hour" from Megadeth
