That's Anasthesia, my friend, not Emperor. The song being played is "Second Side" (one of my favorite heavy metal songs). The lyrics to the song (as a sample) are:
Above my head, where the raven flies
The sun now threatens to shine
They burn our women and rape our children
As the good people'd always done
But no one has a shadow here
And we all are like one
Brothers of blood, shearer of souls
We all have the same goal
(small guitar solo)
Nature always strikes harder back
But they've never heard about
Insanity, sensless vanity
Or diseases of many kinds
Natural disasters, insufferable pains
An owl stands by our side
The song is played while Eilert and Frøya are having sex (and Engström is watching them)!
The lyrics to the original are:
Above my head, where the raven flies
The sun no longer rises or shines
The moon no longer falls
And the wind always blows from the north
I'm entering an existence of eternal intoxication
No more feelings, No more thoughts
Life has finally given results
No one has a shadow here
And we all are like one
Brothers of blood, shearer of souls
We all have the same goal
As I'm wandering in these valleys
I sense the mighty nature by my side
But my hate will never rest
As long as there's life and threats
Again a storm is coming to mingle us
With the outsiding world
To make our white carnations wither
Our seamen oppressed
But we will never tolerate
Interference in our living mood
Above my head, where the raven flies
The sun now threatens to shine
They burn our women and rape our children
As the good people'd always done
But no one has a shadow here
And we all are like one
Brothers of blood, shearer of souls
We all have the same goal
We take our swords and throw our spears
To extinct their filthy blood
Nature always strikes harder back
But they've never heard about
Insanity, senseless vanity
Or diseases of many kinds
Natural disasters, insufferable pains
An owl stands by our side
The wind is back at our side
And the fog lies heavy on the ground
A dance in a minor key has begun
And the Queen stands so tall and beautiful
Behind Her cold and peaceful land
No one knows who they really are
Until they enter our
GATES!
WELCOME TO THE OTHER SIDE!
TO THE GREGARIOUS PEOPLE!
YOUR EXISTENCE HAS ATTAINED THE UNATTAINABLE!
YOUR GRATITUDE WILL BE ACCEPTED BY LOYALTY!
The sentenced is now taken to the place of execution
Where he will be shot until death strikes him
The executioner is ready
And the sentenced raises his head and says
In a fearless voice:
"I have only killed for my beliefs and justice
So I shall die without fear
Knowing that I will be rewarded for your injustice"
And then his words were interrupted by shots...
As you can see, it's not a happy song.
UPDATE 12/26: After viewing the Nazi Collaborators programme a few months ago (the one in particular was called "Hitler's Patsy"), I think that the last verse concerns Vidkun Quisling, traitor to the Norwegian people.
