cum historia
mutat valde Razgriz
revelat ipsum
primum daemon scelestus est | When history changes greatly
Razgriz reveals itself
First as an evil demon |

caenum daemon fundet
mortem in terram
deinde moritur | With its power
The demon brings death to the earth
Then it dies |

This is the English, which I have translated out of Latin, as the song is sung in Latin. Notice that the song is basically the story of the Razgriz, with a lot of repeating. Of course, anyone who has listened to the Requiem mass, or Gregorian chants will also notice that repeating the same verses several times is not uncommon to Latin songs.
On the translation: Latin is a language that is greatly left to interpretation, which is why there are so many versions of the Bible, or multiple translations of the Classics (Cicero, Caesar, etc.) If someone else were to translate this, it may look a bit different, but it would still carry the same jist. For example: "Cum historia mutat valde" can also mean "When history shifts largely" This, in the context of the story does not seem to flow properly, however and "changes greatly" works far better.
