About the 1683 - The battle of Pescadores Islands
The perish of Tungning
lyrics
叹 先王
Alas! My departed kings.
撼胡天 震闽粤
Thou shook the reign of Manchu enemies,And once overawed Hokkien and Canton region.
奉朔讨罪
Thou have sinned for the emperor and the Ming empire.
规复邅回事沮废
Thou were ashamed to be back with such crushing defeat, Even that thou have struggled.
悲 天时
In misery,how unfair the fate is to thee.
虏运盛 王气退
When the savage had their luck, but thy spell of fortune has faded away.
东宁倾危
The Tungning is now imperiled.
白虹贯日大星坠
Fogbow has gone through the sun and bright star has fallen, foreboding the Ragnarok.
伪朝 倡乱
The bogus court took the lead in insurrection.
芟夷九州 天下腥膻
They massacred over the land of China, drenching the world into the smell of stench.
明朔 荡板
The fate of Ming Dynasty is drifting like a floating board.
寸岛孤立 内外援绝
Even the tiniest support was cut off from that isolated island.
施逆 犬贼
Shi Lang, the traitor who has no scruples,
为虎作伥 引师来战
Held a candle to the devil, and brought the hostile forces to the battlefield.
海氛 险绝
How fierce the weather of the ocean was.
凶滔狂雷 肆起惊霆
Roared the billows and rumbled the thunder.
往戍 澎海
Our soldiers went to defend the Pescadores Islands.
修葺铳台 星罗环海
They built fort barbettes all around the sea, like stars in the sky.
北兵大至 倾巢进发
The enemies from north swarmed out to attack,
我师奋武 不为亡散
Our troops put up a stiff resistance to them. They wouldn't separate in flight even when facing the threat of death.
誓 死战
Swear! we pledge to fight till death.
铳炮鸣 石矢发
Let the artillery thunder, and let the arrows fly.
烟蔼 弥漫
Clouds of smoke floated over the battlefield.
海天赤 江山黯
They reddened the sea and sky,but darkened our empire.
不共之仇 激忿阻杀
We slaughtered our irreconcilable enemies out of the boiling rage.
以一抗十 势穷难支
However, when one was pitted against ten, he just couldn't make the situation last any long.
大势 不再
The ending is destined.
虏船清贼 蜂涌蚁来
Barbarians of Qing streamed in on their warships like crowds of ants and bees.
火船 纵发
Columns of fire ships rushed towards enemy troops.
玉碎同尽 尸浮满海
Heroes died with enemies like broken jades, making the sea filled with floating corpses.
<solo>
碧汉日月熄
The sun and the moon have gone from the azure sky.
沧溟不眷明
It was Heaven that didn't look after the great Ming.
孤忠尽殉义
All the loyal servants of the state have sacrificed their lives for the faith.
恶海留丹心
Their righteous blood and loyal hearts are left under the fierce waves.
吁嗟乎!
(Sighing sounds)
沧海扬尘兮日月盲 神州陆沉兮陵谷崩
Dust has raised from the vast sea, blinding the sun and the moon. The land of Middle Kingdom has sunk. The past glory is now faded into the wind, buried by the heap of ruin.

Can you have your black metal with no moronic samples, with guitars downtuned to drill holes in your very self, hypnotizing bass lines, drums that are something more than blast beats and vocals that don't need to be soaked in reverb, and on top of it fast, melodic, headbanging and catchy?
Yes.
