2. | Grogling Grange | 05:34 | Show lyrics |
I can’t shout. Terror possesses you. A dark shadow is approaching me And I have no way out. The key doesn’t turn. You are predestined. Grogling Grange is like the death You feel his breathing inside of you And if you open the eyes You will see his shape, But you will not open them. Your only hope is that every will be a nightmare Most horrific of all, so living all, So when his infernal look will find your eyes You will shout as loud as your heart will explode. And now vomit spit blood on him And you will see the death with Up with life, and you are praying. I’m praying you God, help me. You only can save me, drive me from this demon. I’m praying you, I’m dying. Yes, I die. I haven’t reason to hope Now I can see you in the eyes. I’m not afraid of you, Because I’m like you now, I’m not afraid I’m like you. A terror sight will come from his look You follow his step at the dead of night You will find his crypt throught the smell of death, blood and bones, blood and bones. Evil, evil is inside of him. The evil. You’ll take his body to exorcise him Burn it, burn it. Send back him to the depths of hell. |

3. | Gothik | 05:21 | Show lyrics |
During the night, in full darkness this story is going to begin between the silence and the groans of the night, that freeze your body with a light gust. But when you’ll see the tree’s branches curved on you and a light mist will cover you, then, only in this moment you’ll be able to see, what you will not want to tell. (Repeat) A spectral procession will slowly appear to your sight. A shadow wrapped up with a black velveth cloth, reading not udible phrases. A ghost funeral will put down its bier only when it arrive in the place where the sword shed the blood, everybody come back to eternal sleep. |

4. | Cemeteria | 04:40 | Show lyrics |
Cemetery, dark side of my life. Anxiety of an obscure soul, suffocated by the light of a flame without life, wind and rain announce the twilight in. Cemetery seal of damned and sanctified souls. The moon is growing dark. It’s frightened event. Nature is quiet with its death. A spectral chorus is getting up in the first night of eleventh month. Cemetery seal of damned and sanctified souls. SADAY-AGIOS OTHER AGLA ISCHIROS ATHANATOS And the ritual is complete. The sky was quarted by a flash and all the other is legend. But will be an obscure legend that will break evil’s chain and you perverse priest are emitting the invocation. |

5. | Invocation | 05:39 | Show lyrics |
I want to know what give strength my sprit. I want to light dark of my mind, but I don’t want to squeeze the hand of death. I want to know eternal without him. |

1. | Born in the Grave | 05:07 | Show lyrics |
The mournful sound of a bell, people in prayer. My body abandoned in the solitude of the wood, imprisoned by the rags, compelled to suffer from the frostry contact with the ground. In the unbroken silence I’m seized with shuddering. I turn into matter and then into dust. She flew up. An imperceptible ascent in the knowledge dimension, she penetrates the darkest maze of the infinite universe. My ignorant body will never know the eternity formulas. Uh, I’m still, She’s fluid. I’m frozen. She’s wrapped up in the warmest blows of knowledge, she flies free. The secret will be revealed to her: the ingenious one. |

2. | The Red Death | 05:58 | Show lyrics |
The rooms are crowded the dances begin in the euphory of the party, the orgy frenetically takes place but the last room, the black one, is lonely. Solitary presence: an ebony clock: the mute echo of the pauses after every lugubrious stroke. The black walls eclipse the room, the band interrupts an euphoric melody, wide open eyes under the mask are seeking after a veil of certitude, terro and uneasiness in the hearts, the strokes stop, the music plays again the dances get livelier, a playful shouting spreads somebody has forgotten, to someone else if’s only a fain memory, time goes cruelly by. The pendulum-clock strucks midnight, the pauses are painfullly endless, the dances stop again, twelve long strokes call the attention to a lugubrious figure tall and slender wrapped in a sudarium. The mask represents the red death. The bloodstained cloak, the broad forehead, a still corpse’s face its glassy stare. It slowly moves with regal bearings as if it’s stirred by a cold wind and passing it sows a cursed horror. Pestilence among the masters, pestilence among the servants, pestilence among all the guests. An ona a death carpet it victoriously disappears in the black room. |

1. | Alone in the Dark | 18:28 | Show lyrics |
Eternal suffering. Everlasting oblivion of tears falling into the dust. I want to die. But the three mothers don’t grip my hand they want the cycle to be completed. I’m walking through this autumnal mist where everything dies and where everything’s anguish and loneliness. I mortify my heart with love’s pain and fall into the hollow deep abyss. I’m alone in the dark my being transfixed by a circle of shining souls but their laments can nothing against frost hate and the macabre veil winding my soul in an obscure seal. I would shed blood but something’s hindering that to me which dark force gives my spirit strength thou condemned to wander in this mist thick as pain I’m alone in Mater Tenebra. Amen. I enjoy this event.I son of darkness drink my tears from the calix of the god who never forsakes who turns defeat into victory. I raise my hands up towards the northern icy wind and to the nothing I yell. Th at vision is mild and pure wrapped into the torments wind I stretch out my hand but everything disappears so I close the circle of fire once more and I find myself again alone in the dark. I celebrate the ancient names of this pagan winter looking for lymph and power for his soul now I’ve lost into emptiness. Lost in Mater Tenebra. Satan’s masses mutate the weak. |

2. | Esteban’s Promise | 07:04 | Show lyrics |
I (myself) Esteban son of the dark side, illuminated monarch of the abyss (which is) forgotten by the divine light I’m alive. Ancient now inexistent laws, which have been destroyed by you man, prevented me from waking up. I will come riding a black dragon in delirium winds and anguish wings purify the air ’cause I’m coming and sacrifice to the big tree with fire and blood. I Esteban promise... Power and glory in the anarchy of evil to you poor mortals unite in my magic circle in a way without return swear in me voices in the wind voices from a moan which fades in a delirium like the weak dust settles on the ruins of the past. Oh lost souls in the whirl of the infinite Esteban is alive... and so is the legend... |

3. | The Call of the Wood | 11:10 | Show lyrics |
Beyond the valley of the silence along the paths of ancient knowledge led from the dense odours of the wind. You will find yourself in the holy wood consecrated to the primordial gods. Baptized with the dew around the oak of this Wiccian’s mass celebrated from the warbling of the crows, og great mother moon. Ishtar, Astarte, Inanna, let me feed at your breast let me celebrate the fertile union of the horned god with the pure white goddess. Follow the call of the wood. Follow the voice of the god. Celebrate in the Nemeton with red candles and autumnal flowers on the stone altar. Dress yourself with the sky in the magic circle and purify yourself with the sacred incense of Cernunnos. Bless me mother, ’cause I am your son. Blessed be my eyes, therefore I can find your way. Blessed be my nose, therefore I can breath your essence. Blessed be my mouth, therefore I can talk about you. Blessed be my chest, therefore I can be faithful to you. Blessed be my ancestry, therefore I can give life to men and women. as you gave life to the universe. Blessed be my feet, therefore I can follow your way. Let the last smoke disappear carried from the wind. Rise your eyes full of astral energy and look at the crow that will lead your return to silence. Let the night fall down on you as the death curtain falls down on life. You’ll be reborn... (to be continued...) |

4. | Al Azif | 08:57 | Show lyrics |
What can wait forever isn’t dead and in the long run, even death dies. The Ancient were, the Ancient are, the Ancient will be. They walked in this world, after knowing the kingdom of stars, and the stars will pre-announce their coming. But bfore then the day of men will passed. They’ll descend through the door, they’ll break the seals and their claws will free themselves from the ancient vice, they’ll find the way in the labyrinth of time ’cause for Yog-Sothoth time is only one thing. So they’ll go back and reign where they reigned once and their oaths will contaminate the earth. Oh, poor wretch you flatter yourself that you exploit their immense strength and their dirty power. Count the seasons observe the sun and the stars and when you have risen the stones and implored their power that will be the door through which you can call them out of time and space. So you will hear their terrible voices you will see ever-burning malign flames but you won’t know the striking hand and the destroying soul ’cause they come without a face and men don’t know their forms. But be cautious in acting so that the tentacles of darkness can’t pentrate your soul as the man who was too darling lost his vital force and chaos appeared to his mind. |

5. | Sepulcro | 13:46 | Show lyrics |
I’m alone the night wind’s blowing on my face and the branches of the trees are crying in the big empty of this night. Step by step along the shadow path the black cloak of darkness opens the door in the place of eternal silence. Wha strange emotions are striking my body an obscure quiet is leading my mind my hands are touching the wet trees and the undergrowth is making my way blind among the mossy stones in the realm of the dead. The old ivy-mantled gate is creaking while I am opening the door of the whisper crypt. What a morbid force my soul has a hidden god is leading my steps. I am going down is this wet stairs in the stiffing dark only the noise of a drop of water is stressing the passing time I’m alone in this sepulcro. I humble being pieteously observe the men’s fragilty. Putrid bones put upon marble sacella are waiting for nothing while the cobwebs are covering the ancient effigies everything’s resting in a monumental silence here everything is forgotten here. I alone in this sepulcro will bring these relics back to life with my profane action. This is a sacred profanation that will give life to death the eternal life of memory. Alone in this sepulcro. |

1. | The Oak | 10:40 | Show lyrics |
In the whirls of time, turning their eyes toward the shadowy monumental symbols of the past, following the lines up to the places, where power and mystery reign some people raised many stones to the sun in their imposing silence. A warm wind is blowing in my face melting the ice of death. Burnt alive victims around the cromlec’h in honour of my immortality. Crucified on The Oak. My blood is trickling down it no light in this church made of trees some men in white are chanting their song to the altar of Cernunnos. Crucified on The Oak. Oh you, God of Moon, sanctify this magis ritual. In my heart there’s the power of glory, in my eyes the shine of the sword. Oh you, God of Death, rescue me from this fear, I will be your messenger, rescue me from this light. Oh Mother Darkness, receive the son of cruelty and wisdom. Crucified on The Oak, in honour of Esus. The earth is imbued with the blood of my God’s enemies and from flames a battle-cry is madly risen. Far away the death-song is going on with the crossing of the swords. The fog is hiding our temples made of stones and the Gods are silently waiting for the event. The bloody encounter between our Pagan Devotion and the only god. Ruins around The Oak. Corpses in oblivion. Sealed up by the light of reason. Oh, cursed mortals, which is the right way? |

2. | Fronds of the Ancient Walnut | 12:25 | Show lyrics |
Feel the breeze on my face the icy breath of the Goddess. I raise my hand and touch the illusion. My mind is powerful and my Ego is high as the mountain in front of me. Clouds run fast and silence comes from the Fronds of the Ancient Walnut: no scents, no odors, no sounds, no laments; the cold vanishes... I get all the colors all around me and I see the enchanting dance of the branches: it is the Walnut calling the witches, it is our dream voyaging through the aethyr. What was not becomes reality. I am the deer running to the Sabbath! I am the crow which observes the silence! I am the craftsman of myself... therefore I praise the Horned and the Great Mother! And where the wind blows, at the mercy of the oneiric, it is the touch of the world’s spirits which enhances my magic. Mind’s spreading, faint voices chant at the moon, the silvering light of Levanah penetrates the unconscious and revives the Ancient Knowledge. I take flight, the dance is over. Now we are the deer returning from the Sabbath! Now we are the crow which contemplated the silence! Now we are the craftsmen of ourselves... therefore we praise the Horned and the Great Mother! |

3. | The Naked and the Dance | 08:20 | Show lyrics |
The fresh humidity of the green moss wets my skin, my body laying down, as it suits to who adores a god, over the sacred stones of the Cromlec’h. Our bodies clinging each other, what is of the One becomes of the Many. The incense smoke dances with the candles flames attracting the celebrants astral energies. The choral worshipping of the Black Goddess raises from our minds, what is of the Many becomes of the One. The sacred wine shall fill the cup which turned was in the goatish horn, the fertile lips shall kiss the rod which life and shape took from the walnut. An the Nine shall come at the beginning of the dance, the naked feet shall caress Sheela Na Gog, the naked bodies moistened by wood’s breath, the naked minds dancing in the air, and the shrewd spirits, by sacred fire inebriated, shall turn to whirl, and once more the Great Spiral shall be Tregenda one and seven to celebrate the thirteen fullnesses of Levanah, who of ancient memory made arcane magic mortal. Simple melodies by “Her Who guides” vibrated, enchantements of witches for millenniums hand down, bodies like veils fluttering to paint the Great Dance offered to the sky as a tribute of the soul drag into oblivion. May I rejoin the stars, free my astral, embrace Knowledge and in the All regenerate myself now beast now man, till to reborn from the effluviums of my ethereal spirit God I Myself, God among Gods, deserving of my devotion and of my passion! Sacrifical victim for those who welcome me heir and part of the All. |

4. | Cimmeries | 12:42 | Show lyrics |
Gorgot Assai Belem. May the Great Portal open to me, my voice thunder in thy name and for the power of the Lords of the Great Frost. The whirling air of the North guide my spirit in the quest for glorious past. And it was in the mist of time that the death fires floodlighted darkness the wind brought the smell of blood, the air of extermination and the exterminators outcry. The blades of sacrifice deepened in the flesh and the nerves and the black seers raised hearts still pulsating to unnamable Gods for their obscure prophecies. Prepare now your soul for the embrace of the sacred death, may water suffocate your breath and flame consume your flesh, all this so that Teutates, Esus and Taranis protect my people. Heavy and slow were the treads of the black warriors in the Aeron’s march, dust rising like whirls while the horrible Crow turned His eyes to the battle remains. Morighon was reigning among the stones of the timeless, where the stars engraved their symbols and under the brightness of the moon the initiates were enlighted on the Great Secrets. I want to reopen my eyes to look beyond the horizon of fear, My God is in me, in the strenght of my arm, in the light of my sword. Crom. I raise my arms to Andraste, so that only massacre be in my eyes. Crom. To the threshold of the abyss I kneel, so that the Three Furies invade my soul. Crom. With wine I honour the Gods, so that inebriation draws me near them. Crom. My face I paint of moon like all the sons of the dying sun lands, I belong to Her. Crom is in me. Remote are now those archaic deeds in the mist of time, and the Cimmeries testimonials sleep in the obscure silence of the tumulus like ancient relics, mighty sigils to fragile ashes. But the choirs will thunder again Gorgot Necrod Belem. May the Great Portal close to you. |

5. | My Devotion | 14:59 | Show lyrics |
Under the moonlight, bitter falls a tear over the face of memories. Oh, shining blade! Cut my flesh, so that be the Sacred Fire nourished by my vital fluid. And you! Spirits of the Air, leave smoke as a sign of my rite. Stone after stone, I create my Lucus and so I divide the world of human dimension from the one of Gods. How wonderful falling into this darkness. Blow up the last torches and shut up your eternal chant. Lucifer! Helel Ben Shahar. Shining Master of light, Prince of dawn, wipe the shadows out of my spirit, banish weakness from my body, give me the strangth of Power, let my throat be ripped up by crying My Devotion. In my devotion the sign of Voor. In my devotion the sword of Hathoor. May the four elements become my allies, may the faith of darkness be my weapon and the spirit my temple. Son of time’s forces, deter my mind from the wicked ignorance of the Lambs of god. In my devotion the sign of Voor. In my devotion the sacred Tor. The circle of power be a sacred place, shield and protection from the followers of the nazarene. Light in the light and light in the darkness. I seize my nature, the five edged star adorns my breast and my hands clutch the club. We are wolves in the sacred wood of life. In my devotion the sign of Voor. In my devotion Bathym Belem Gomor. Take me, oh ferryman, through the vision of my death, the heat of the Great Black Veil. My hearse brought in slow procession by the No Named, my reunion with Mother Earth, the keeper of the dreams last turning his clepsydra, the breaking up of the black mirror and The Guardians of the threshold will open the last Portal. Let the candles burn out, darkness consumes light, time divours life. My Eternal Devotion to Darkness. |

6. | Under the Sign of the Red Dragon | 11:18 | Show lyrics |
I raise my eyes at dead of night I hear the silence moulding my body I hear the damp and living ground throbbing I belong to it. I’m the guardian of this land, I’m Dracula, Prince of Walacchia. My name is synonymous with fear and terror which I sowed and grew and which I fed on. I led an army of dead soldiers that I myself had raised from their graves. I spread death and destruction. Stifling smell of blood and excrements, desperate cries, sobs. Thousands of corpses rotted in the sun. Thousands of poles rose as I passed. My head beheaded and laid down. The law: my law. I was Vlad, the Impaler, nobody could obstruct my path. And the powerful Turks come in crowds. And the new forest came up, forest of fright and blood. And the sultan of gold and silk came with his numerous army, thousand of persons were horribly impaled and crowds came, crowds of enemies. And at the end I was surrounded. Chill, blood, horror of an irrepressible slaughter. By then I was a prince without land. And from the ground a whisper, the whisper of the dead, rose: "Dracula, please, come back!" |

1. | Act I: The First Seal | 09:39 | Show lyrics |
Dark and forgotten the times of these writings Timeless stones shape the walls of this site Arcane and powerful symbols traced on them May the moon lead my steps In the sacred search of supreme knowledge Waiting for his coming And it was gloom Somewhere in time In unknown lands ruled by an ancient magic In titanic forests 6 towers of power were built They guarded 6 sacred heirlooms, Protected by 6 seals They show the effigy of the god Who sits on the big black throne I mesmerize my soul To fly along the dusty paths of Acheron Looking for the magic circle of the black ring Toth Amon, prince of enchanters Tell me your secret Or I will tear it from death to death Running on a human blood river He feeds on blood The blood calls him His strength glows if the hands invoking him are stained with blood Where he shines, the blood is shed There the light’s kingdoms wobble There nature forces are shaken Thoth-Amon, give me the sword of sacrifice And the sacred cup I am gonna fill with lifeblood Give me the lance of almightiness And the potsherds of the black stone I’m gonna place on the altar of Dagon Entrust the sixth heirloom to me And so be it! And then a whirlwind struck my breast, freezing my soul The candle flames vanished announcing his coming 5 the tips and 5 the elements It is the blood in which I annihilate The sixth is the knowledge the supreme god, the bringer of light Engraved in the sixth heirloom The sacred book ordained to the devotee |

2. | Act II: Beyond the Black Diamond Gates | 07:14 | Show lyrics |
Dancing flames reflect a purple light Dyeing the room with a mysterious stillness Wrapped in the ineoriating haze of the fumed incense We were sitting at the table pleasantly stunned by the sweet pungent smell of storax Martyrized with ircos, oleum libani, commiphora The white goddess was ruling the night And the old bell heralded the arrival of Kephra Our fingers were riding the ethereal dimension which embraces everything "I’m the guardian of the east gates, master of the whirling air I am him who opens the threshold The portal is opened to you, holders of the ninth key" I think their sound and technique In the intensity of powers The ninth evoked energy was waiting for us Beyond the black diamond gates it sounds great, and for me it’s "My name is Astharoth-Astarte" it hurled "I am him-her who walks in the dark Who will lead you to ecstasy I will give you the power of revenge ’Cause you are my sons May the power of evil be with you So that your souls can prepare for the call In a place, sacred to you, celebrate with dances, chants and fires You will couple in rapture And I will enjoy your lust I am the ninth key, the ninth flame of hell Young, chaste with innocent fleshes You will fetch her to me" Magic resins have worn out Scents have faded Tum, patient, is waiting But He-She is still walking with us |

3. | Act III: Carnal Delight in the Vortex of Evil | 06:13 | Show lyrics |
The way leading to him is unknown and steep And the bodies rests of those who didn’t deserve him make it slippery But it is at the borders of my soul, so I know the secrets to walk along it staying unhurt The threshold of his abode is barred by a tangle of infected thorns But my soul keeps its key His throne is shielded by 12 servants’ stare But he has called me, I felt him calling me And he has given me the power to bewitch them His rooms are icy But he warms my naked body with his breath The throb and the blood flow suspend In the presence of him His eyes, diabolical larvas his pupils, scan me His glance captures me and penetrates my breast Goblet of delicious vermilion wine I give myself up to his grim embrace Throb of death He is the storm He is the breeze He is the aurora He is the twilight He is the everlasting mind in the timeless abyss He injures and sates my lips He lessens my hunger He appeases my thirst He is fire burning my flesh He is icy snow settling in my womb Rod of viscid serpents Death and blood excite him And my blood is the balm for his ecstasy and his voracious delight Putrid carrion with burnt seales Obscure seducer with smooth scented skin of infant Now I know you But he has always known me |

4. | Act IV: Congressus Cum Daemone | 10:24 | Show lyrics |
The sacred fire burns in the stone circle In the centre of the all I’m waiting for the guardian Powerful thunders rumble in the air And lightnings herald the storm Darkness turns into light and light grows into darkness While the salamanders are continuing to dance in the heart of fire The moon stops growing She stretches the fronds shades as spectral witnesses And Eurus, the east wind, gives them life 6 are the towers, 4 are the revealed seals And now I am waiting for the next one Thunder is rumbling again Like the dragon’s awakening from the deep abyss I honour the dark simulacrum of the depth’s gates That is silently waiting for the event’s completion I desert the realm of chaos and I liberate over the infernal rivers I follow the way of the red snake Ancestral flight ...into the depth I will celebrate the umpteenth passage ritual A new baptism in a space without time Tisipnon, fury of the occult power, is waiting for me To deliver me the black book of the supreme knowledge I cross the hidden paths of Shaytan to violate the ayernus gates That raise from the deep abyss up to the horrid vault 3 are the bronze doors and 3 of iron and 3 of diamonds They are wrapped up by an eternal fire That makes all red-hot but nothing destroys At the sides of the awful passage 2 guardians are waiting for me [First guardian:] "Be aware of your virtue, oh animal, and the abyss With its spectres will be overcome Rejoyce as a new spirit and the barking of the Infernal beasts will become silvery chant Beyond these portals you can join the perfect lightof the space without time" "I am Angelikos Phosphoros, Lucifer, Morning Star" [Second guardian:] "Welcome spiritual warrior who, conscious and daring, utters the secret name Before the black diamond gates Welcome ensign of light This pathway knows the steps, dreads and triumphs of your search Welcome insane hero, the only one who has descended the stairs of damnation You, blazing sun, dare-devil who faces the hades to win yourself" "I greet and thank you, obscure guardians, who allow my passage Without rending my flesh. I, brave rambling being, go and reveal the fifth seal" |

White on white translucent black capes back on the rack. Bela Lugosi’s dead. The bats have left the bell tower, the victims have been bled, red velvet lines the black box. Bela Lugosi’s dead. Undead Undead Undead. The virginal brides file past his tomb, strewn with time’s dead flowers, bereft in deathly bloom, alone in a darkened room the count. Bela Lugosi’s dead. Undead Undead Undead. Oh Bela, Bela’s undead. |

It’s the night of shabat The plenilune feast Rise from your mortal sleep and let your astral body glide away With the sacred ointment Plunge into the new dream Follow the way of the secret life Silently graze archaic dimensions On water and over wind The god of woods call his sons, Enraptured by his power, Follow the divine melody The magic key. Penetrate the forest’s heart and be led to the sabbath, Till the flight’s end. Vivid flares flashing in darkness are reflected In the owl’s fixed eyes. Walk along the hidden paths Nine kinds of wood nourish fire and fire marks your destination It reveals the glade And the walnut you knew through the deer’s eyes Maleventum A long black robe appears among the trees His gaze lighted upon the moon His barbarian hymn hails to the moon Nine words of nine letters thunder in silence And the night’s star reveals its secret nature. (hi)s shout opens the black diamond doors the circle holds on tight to him the old chant sing out.. Palas Aron Ozimonas Baske Bano Tudan Donas Geheamel Cla Orlay Berec he pantaras tay. |

Consecrate the altar with your symbols This is the night when the breeze will rekindles the sacred fire and when the Sacred stones will sing your new name It’s the night of the breeze rekindling the sacred fire, (it’s the night) of the sacred stones singing your new name. Draw the circle with the athame and undress your candid body To let the eye of the Gods see your essence. Guardians of the north, sacred spirits of the earth In the dark of your warm womb accept my death I offer you my greetings and) I welcome you Guardians of the east, sacred spirits of the Air As the sun rises from the east after the night, Guide my soul to a new birth. (Lead my soul to a new dawn) Guardians of the South, sacred spirits of the Fire. Protect me and lighten my journey on the new path Watch over me and make my journey on the new path bright and clear I offer you my greetings and I welcome you Guardians of the west, sacred spirit of the water Purify me and make me clear as new spring I offer you my greetings and) I welcome you Death is waiting and widening its voracious mouth. I am entering the dark before the creation I am entering the womb of the Goddess May my body born again May my soul stay in peace May my heart be ready Sink yourself in the warm Earth Sink your mind in the ancient litany Dark mother take me in Let me be born again We all come from the same womb This is the song of the goddess, the key to the great union. Anoint your breast and your womb Widen the door of the new fate And introduce yourself with your new name Ensemble of flesh enlived by new power Take the cup and the athame raising your arms to the sempitern eye As the cup is female so the knife is male Now joined They bring blessing Consecrate your sacrifice and enjoy the gifts of the great mother Close your circle and step over, in the truth that all (the ) circles hold Go now you, new creature Now the master of the Only art That all the arts contains And where all the arts come from. Live with honour And with honour die. You the master of the Only arcane craft That all the arts gathers.. |

The breeze, with its tossing about, speaks of the movements on the water Surface and sends out the shivers. From those waves I will read the future fate. Oh silphs, inhabitants of the Air, Be the mediators between me and the immaterial beings By Paralda dominated So that I may decipher to roar of the wind Sator Arepo Tenet Opera Rotas The ethereal foundation, void of every substance. Ouroboros you are the void that everything is, You are the primordial substance that is Chaos Now no more shapeless and empty as the central fire Vibrates and floods it with light The real secret is still unspeakable Only through the mediation of symbols it can be pronounced, Its thought has been awaken by the changed vision of all things. Oh silence, teach the disciple of the ancient wise men, So that every shape may become expressive and every sign may suggest deep vision The snake, son of Apsu generates the Chaos, Its motto is one for everything |

Circle within circle Towards the warm heart of the earth Circle within circle Falling Falling inside my wideness I opened wide the doors of the underworld Fragment making up a part of the eternity In the eternal forest shelter I found Guest of its big trees Fed on its abundance Through unknown land I travelled In the fatherland, over there Where the giants dwell I followed gods’ footsteps Towards an high mountain Set in its stone a great throne I saw And on it a small and wrinkled man Looking at me frowning under its big red hat I am the great deer Who runs between dimensions I am the mother Who gave birth to all religions I am the stairway linking the opposites I am the door leading to the sidh Great is my spirit Matchless my power Fear of me, (mortal) men If afraid of me you are Then your trembling soul I will eat up Great will be your medicine If my words you are able to listen Great will be your strength If from the deer’s flesh you feed Great will be your wisdom If you know how to ride on me. So then at the house of the gods I will lead you Going up the great river Going up the great river Towards the starry sky And of a different destiny I will clad you You will meet all the spirits and with them you will compete your strength To be a real men your humanity you must shed And when the right time comes I will kill you So that you might be born again to life The only master of your destiny becoming. Circle within circle The tired reality is closing Like a flower at dusk Waiting for the cold dew Circle within circle Following the path of the dawn Through the night crowded with its dreams In a sacred glade I woke up Three moons in the sky I saw On my knees at the foot of the king’s rock I greeted them Circle within circle Then into a wolf I turned myself And in the night I ran away. Circle within circle. |

Through the eyes of the raven I saw the rain falling on the world The entire nature bending Under the vehemence of the furious wind That was the time, The favour of the Stone, I asked And they, water in ice, Turned in response Widening their warm mouths Down they pushed me Into the great Bear’s den Rich and prosperous land, Of noble blood, of ancient and fighting race made. Through a veil Of dreams never born Drawing the sword Their King I challenged Smiling over there I was taken Where the mystery of the Springs lies I drank and (under the spell) dreaming I fell It was the wind Primary engine To give me the knowledge of the eternal movement Then the earth A body gave me and the space was limited The water Blood became and my dry flesh refreshed And above all the fire Of inspiration the main source Along the black spiral Where the eternal tree walk on Up to the roots of the true power, I danced At the base of the spine The pillar that sustains the worlds, The great stone have tuned up a new song Unlucky you who don’t recognize who gave you life Small your flame and Recid your light shall be If from your land power don’t draw As a new new baby suckling a right nipple to suck you should to find when the thirst for knowledge your throat will dry Then you’ll become the voice and the action Of the earth that made you And shaping it in return Under our verb it will be We the forgotten gods, Stronger than ever we will be back When the track is beaten And the great stones once again will be honoured. |

7. | In the Raven’s Eyes | 07:39 | Show lyrics |
So the vision began And a mighty wind shook the roots of the nine worlds. The great wolf of the night roused And a deep slash cracked open the primordial ice. I saw him coming from the north The father of all gods Two crows next to him Two wolves at his sides In the grey cape wrapped I saw him coming, With the name of all things in his hand. He widened the big eye, this he said: WAR!! I know, for nine whole nights you hung down from the tree By the mercy of the wind shaken By the spear injured To Odin sacrificed, Myself to myself On that tree, of unknown roots, grown Nor bread nor drinking horn was given Towards the ground my look I cast The runes I picked up Shouting I took them And from up there I fell. The eye shut itself And from his hand I fell The human error I understood. Almost no soul to sustain me As if an infernal wind wanted To tear it away from me. Through the pain I saw and through it I understood As too great was the Chaos (at the beginning) Now too great was the order. The great millstone of the sky A new circle was about to be prepared. It was time for war Next to our fathers we would have fought once again |

Far-away echos accompany the dim lights of torches Old and mighty trees twine along the holy way of an ancient procession Simple but obscure songs are murmured in the deep arboreal temple Only two mighty blades shine in the reflection of fire From our directions come the old sages, each with his number and each carrying his ancestor’s treasures Everything repeats as in an old prophecy marked by a vision donated by the Spirit of Nature And nothing is quiet in the dark heart of the forest It’s inhabitants voices The breed of the trees and the men’s mantra are part of a unique great ritual Nothing is quiet... nothing The four shining serpents slowly draw near to form a circle following the rhythm of Dark and deep rumbles like the heartbeats of a huge dragon as he is drawing near Everything wheels in an alchemist dance, where the symbols will become laws preserved By a family of sages, the men of the oaks Four serpents united and became one circular serpents, just one in the ancient nemeton Where each man was near his stones and symbols Now, everything is silent in the large forest And even the magical lights of the flames seem to burn out in the silence In the circle of men and stones, only the oldest one begins to sing a new but terrible prophecy |

My name is no-one and a thousand, but the old sages crowned me Queen Mother I am the breath you can hear among the leaves of the trees My sap emerges from the deep lakes flowing into the rivers and into the immense oceans My blood, hot and violent, cleaves the grounding a blazing trail left by a fire dragon Dark and deep is my womb where I generate any form of life Here, the ancient learned to receive the old supreme art I have created sprites and guardians, fools and sages to defend my original power Hidden in a language written on stone shapes and symbols Many where the children who worshipped my thousand faces with honour and respect And I, good and terrible, fed them at my sacred springs with water and dragon’s flash Now I’m dying and so are all my faithful servants that men called Gods of Pagos Now, the power of the only god hangs over me And worse my fate will be if they forget about me And with me the most ancient legend carried on by purest emotions will end Follow the ancient path and don’t turn to the false light Raise your arms to heaven and you’ll be protected Let the spirit walk with your body and draw the cross in the circle Abandon the sufferings that belong to your false nature Love me and I will love you Hate me and I will devour you Descent into my crypts where the darkness of life reigns And nourish the eternal sacred flame Defend your brother tree and your sister stone because their lives are mine Follow the snakes’ trail Because it will lead to me |

Mark your body with the symbol of agony because I am the truth Bend your head and lower your eyes because my light will shine upon you and will burn your sins O humble man, dance during the macabre journey of your life I’ll be the only relief for your sufferings, since evil has reigned over your soul eternally I am the saviour with the blazing sword that crashes the dragon’s power My prophets with their black cloaks will travel along the winding ways of faith The mother’s time is now over I am the only father of this world and I will put my scals on the ancient temples My brave warriors will cut down the profane and cursed rocks and the enemy’s messengers will burn Never more idols in the cursed forests but only shelters for your weak soul O humble man, listen to my world because from the time I come, you’ll be saved Your life will be valueless without sin and your death will be horrible without regret Follow the book’s word and don’t let be deceived by the man’s word This is what is written and predicted by the man of the desert that was led to our lands Shores by the lady of the waters, deceived by a dark veil In him the seed of discord and ruin was hidden Our masters and princess fell under the weight of power and corruption and the men of the cross Promised them new reigns in exchange for new souls What a mysterious magic hit our eyes so that we couldn’t see the god’s beauty anymore? What a mysterious spell broke up the light of our soul so that we couldn’t feel The great mother’s power anymore? What a terrible curse stroke our people so that they couldn’t follow the old cults of the forest And say their prayers in a stone temple anymore? Under the symbol of the ichthys they promised the coming of a new reign This reign will be built with the martyrs’ blood This reign will be fed with the weak’s fears It will be a stone temple and will refuse the light Write all this in the stones and hand it down by the force of the voice In order that others may rewrite it with blood |

I am the grey conqueror, he who’s come by cold and storm The grey wolf called by the full moon, and the snarling beast hidden in the cold mist Brother Tree and Sister Stone Hear my call! Brother Thunder and Sister Night Announce my coming! May it’s reflection be seen in the eye of the owl, and be amplified by the wolf’s cry I’m the inborn hunting and the battle’s fury The strangled breath of the escape and the vane hope of a refuge I’m the agony of the preyer and the red blood on the sword The creature suffocated gasp and the last plea before the void May glory walk beside me and death in the grey cloak follow May red poems of blood be traced by the cold steel in the pages of time I lift this immortal song, in memory of our fathers and in honour to our gods! May the past return to live in the shadow of the moutains In the darkness of the woods, and in the light of the plaines In the depth of the lakes, and at the heights of the glaciers In the grey humid mist, and in the hot mesmerizing sun Do not betray your fathers, and don’t deny your instincts For we are the wolves for whom the preyer awaits Just like the old grey wolf, beneath the pale kiss of the moon We shout our war cry to the freezing sky we become death! So that nothing is betrayed Beneath this pale moon, I engrave my body is eternal signature of the corruptible flesh May night swallow day and the moon be tainted red! May the grey wolf return howling in the cold icy storm For nothing will ever be forgotten! May the spirits of my forefathers resurrect once more To erase the affronts inflicted to my land |

Shining in darkness the vary eyes of the lord o birds of prey announces the passing of time With his piercing call The thick dark leaves of the forest dance in the wind and in worshipful adoration The heavens tremble and the bright lightning flashes, leaving the heart’s of the forests sons The howling of the wolves become a macabre litany Premonitions, obscure premonitions crawl in the night air Built on dragon’s bones the imposing tower stands There the old of the oak turns the profaned sealed pages The timeless pages built on sacred and terrible rituals The wrinkled hands turn the pages, the hypnotic starring eyes nourish the thousand thoughts In the whirling magic of this silent ritual While the moonlight reflects the dragon’s breath When the ancient gods ruled the earth, giving abundance and death with a simple and fair hand Glorious were their crowns, but the greed let the man to no longer follow the way of faith But only the path of power. His greed drove him to excavate the depths of the earth In search of hidden treasures The rocks were broken and scattered to extract gold and gems Mans disrupted the earth creating chasms liberating wealth and tremendous powers imprisoned In the womb of the earth for thousands of years Blinded by a mad quest, made pacts with the lord of the abyss Repayed with the supreme art of metals The sublimation of the elements earth, wind, water and fire Death and destruction would spread Blood of the guilty and the innocent may spill on earth nourishing the abyss |

Impotently at the end of an era we assist As a last rampart we protect the ancient wisdom Our valour multiply our blades But this is not enough Falsehood and treason have reduced our lines And increased the ones of the enemy of the ancient gods Their thirst of lands and power will bring death and destruction for centuries to come The gods, offended by whom have blackened them, have forget us As two terrible dragons battle arrays clash One white as his prophet’s livery, tint in nothingness and emptiness of his sentences The other one red, as shame and rage for thousand years of eggression endured Through sparks and flames, bloody rivers flood through the green plains The schock is terrible and many sons of the earth lost their lives on the field Brother they were, now full of hate infused by the priests of the god of the desert For a supposed difference of belives The white dragon dispers and disbound his enemies, divouring them with fierce Without mercy, without honour! And after our killing, they convert our sons with tortures They fill our sons hearts with fear and suspect, hate and ignorance Another era will have to pass over But nothing is linear in the circle of time The wyrd repeat himself and the forgotten forces will free themselves Gathering our sacrifice! |

And give it to a sister as we can close the spirit circle High parfumes spill in the air, celebrating again the time wheel The great golden serpent wrap again his throne Here his royal look meet his opposite, two visages facing themselves in the eternal fight for equilibrium From his wooden throne the black goat of the woods wait his dismemberment as a rites for a continous fertility The nine knights surround the sacred enclosure, carefull guardians from the profane eyes The virgins dance following the way of the mother For the ancestral rite give again gift of continuity at his nation, his ancient nation Who have protected his cult for centuries Fires shines in the dark night and the torches accompany the whirling dances as a serpent that wrap his pray Take my hand brother and give it to a sister, for we are the sacred circle of the spirits Protector and guardians of the ancient knowledge And turn your voice to thunder, because this night the mother will unite with the god And we’ll have a new life and a new king The light of the fires shine on the Anphisbena, that is the millenary lady of the underworld She will welcome the new initiated in the eternal circular dance Magics and maledictions from the stone temples will be able to make nothing against The most ancient wisdom, neither the new knowledge And even in the knights of the cross will cut the sacred tree and will banish the serpent The ancient seed will germ again infusing new roots And a new and imposing tree will rise again under the double golden serpent sign |

10. | One Rode to Asa Bay (Bathory cover) | 09:11 | Show lyrics |
One man rode the way through the woods Down to Asa bay Where dragon ships had sailed to sea More times than one could say To see with own eyes the wonder People told of from man to man The God of all almightyness Had arrived from a foreign land The rumours told of a man Who had come from the other side the seas Carrying gold cross around neck in chain And spoke in strange tongue of peace He had come with strange men in armour Dressed in purple shirts and lace Smelling not of beer but flowers And with no hair in face And the bold man carrying cross Had told all one of Asa bay The God of all man woman child had come To them all save And to thank Lord of Heaven One should build to God a house And to save one’s soul from Hell One should be baptised and say vows A man of pride with the Hammer told new God To build his house on own And spoke loud of the Gods of their fathers Not too long time gone The rumours said the man with a beard like fire And the Hammer in chain By men in armour silenced was and by Their swords was slain Those who did not pay the one coin Of four to man of new God Whipped was twenty and put in chains then locked By their neck to the log (To the log...) And so all of Asa bay did build A house of the cross Every hour of daylight they did sweat Limbs ached because faith does cost And on the day two hundred There it stood white to the sky The house of the God of the cross Big enough to take two dragon ships inside And all of Asa bay did watch The wonder raise to the sky Now must the God of the cross be pleased And satisfied Just outside the circle of the crowd One old man did stand He looked across the waters And blotted the sun out of his eyes with one hand And his old eyes could almost see The dragon ships set sail And his old ears could almost hear Men of great numbers call out Oden’s hail And though he did know already Though he turned face towards sky And whispered silent words forgotten Spoken only way up high Now this house of a foreign God does stand Now must they leave us alone Still he heard from somewhere in the woods Old crow of wisdom say ...people of Asa land, it’s only just begun... |

I can’t shout. Terror possesses you. A dark shadow is approaching me And I have no way out. The key doesn’t turn. You are predestined. Grogling Grange is like the death You feel his breathing inside of you And if you open the eyes You will see his shape, But you will not open them. Your only hope is that every will be a nightmare Most horrific of all, so living all, So when his infernal look will find your eyes You will shout as loud as your heart will explode. And now vomit spit blood on him And you will see the death with Up with life, and you are praying. I’m praying you God, help me. You only can save me, drive me from this demon. I’m praying you, I’m dying. Yes, I die. I haven’t reason to hope Now I can see you in the eyes. I’m not afraid of you, Because I’m like you now, I’m not afraid I’m like you. A terror sight will come from his look You follow his step at the dead of night You will find his crypt throught the smell of death, blood and bones, blood and bones. Evil, evil is inside of him. The evil. You’ll take his body to exorcise him Burn it, burn it. Send back him to the depths of hell. |

During the night, in full darkness this story is going to begin between the silence and the groans of the night, that freeze your body with a light gust. But when you’ll see the tree’s branches curved on you and a light mist will cover you, then, only in this moment you’ll be able to see, what you will not want to tell. (Repeat) A spectral procession will slowly appear to your sight. A shadow wrapped up with a black velveth cloth, reading not udible phrases. A ghost funeral will put down its bier only when it arrive in the place where the sword shed the blood, everybody come back to eternal sleep. |

Cemetery, dark side of my life. Anxiety of an obscure soul, suffocated by the light of a flame without life, wind and rain announce the twilight in. Cemetery seal of damned and sanctified souls. The moon is growing dark. It’s frightened event. Nature is quiet with its death. A spectral chorus is getting up in the first night of eleventh month. Cemetery seal of damned and sanctified souls. SADAY-AGIOS OTHER AGLA ISCHIROS ATHANATOS And the ritual is complete. The sky was quarted by a flash and all the other is legend. But will be an obscure legend that will break evil’s chain and you perverse priest are emitting the invocation. |

The mournful sound of a bell, people in prayer. My body abandoned in the solitude of the wood, imprisoned By the rags, compelled to suffer from the frostry contact with The ground. In the unbroken silence I’m seized with shuddering. I turn into matter and then into dust. She flew up. An imperceptible ascent in the knowledge dimension, She penetrates the darkest maze of the infinite universe. My ignorant body will never know the eternity formulas. Uh, I’m still, She’s fluid. I’m frozen. She’s wrapped up in the Warmest blows of knowledge, she flies free. The secret will be revealed to her... the ingenious one. |

The rooms are crowded the dances begin in the euphory of the Party, the orgy frenetically takes place but the last room, the Black one, is lonely. Solitary presence... an ebony clock... the mute echo of the pauses After every lugubrious stroke. The black walls eclipse the room, the band interrupts an euphoric Melody, wide open eyes under the mask are seeking after a veil of Certitude, terro and uneasiness in the hearts, the strokes stop, The music plays again the dances get livelier, a playful shouting Spreads somebody has forgotten, to someone else if’s only a fain Memory, time goes cruelly by. The pendulum-clock strucks midnight, the pauses are painfullly Endless, the dances stop again, twelve long strokes call the Attention to a lugubrious figure tall and slender wrapped in A sudarium. The mask represents the red death. The bloodstained cloak, the broad forehead, a still corpse’s face Its glassy stare. It slowly moves with regal bearings as if it’s Stirred by a cold wind and passing it sows a cursed horror. Pestilence among the masters, pestilence among the servants, Pestilence among all the guests. An ona a death carpet it victoriously disappears in the black room. |

It’s the night of shabat The plenilune feast Rise from your mortal sleep and let your astral body glide away With the sacred ointment Plunge into the new dream Follow the way of the secret life Silently graze archaic dimensions On water and over wind The god of woods call his sons, Enraptured by his power, Follow the divine melody The magic key. Penetrate the forest’s heart and be led to the sabbath, Till the flight’s end. Vivid flares flashing in darkness are reflected In the owl’s fixed eyes. Walk along the hidden paths Nine kinds of wood nourish fire and fire marks your destination It reveals the glade And the walnut you knew through the deer’s eyes Maleventum A long black robe appears among the trees His gaze lighted upon the moon His barbarian hymn hails to the moon Nine words of nine letters thunder in silence And the night’s star reveals its secret nature. (hi)s shout opens the black diamond doors the circle holds on tight to him the old chant sing out.. Palas Aron Ozimonas Baske Bano Tudan Donas Geheamel Cla Orlay Berec he pantaras tay. |

Corpse god of the death followers. Enslave and use me as a holy hammer. To destroy the ancient cults and all the fools that don’t believe in thee. I shall obey on thy commands Frightened and terrorized by my sin. Breathe through my imperfect tongue. Burn all the ones that will try to deny the holy path. God against life God against all. Tu solus dominus. Pater! Let us prey in thy name to eradicate satan. He who shines in thy reflected light Let us reign on earth as thee in heaven and hell With tortures and crimes. With great sufferings. Gratus tibi sum magna tua gloria. We’ll bring horror in the sign of peace. A dead body nailed to the cross. Example and symbol of intollerance to follow. Let darkness falls on earth. Let our fires and chants resound in this valley of tears. We will bring your reign to those pagans. In hatred and forgiveness... In blood. In blood, blood and redemption. They will desire to die. They will seek for a rapid death in thy name. Laudatus sit qui venit in nomine tuo. Burn them to clean their aims. Burn! With! Burn! Because life is not here but after death! |

6. | Mandragora | 06:19 | Show lyrics |
The village sleeps and all is silent in the dark night no dogs and the cockrel hasn’t sung to break the spell. Spirits of the wind, you are silent too. The stranger rocks on the tree in his cradle of death. Three drops of his blood fall on the dark lands caressed by the shadows and protected by the moon. They have brought the great dame into our realm. Silver is the path, that leads to the silent woods and three lone women walk praying and singing ancient liturgy. Three low flames dance in the night, saint sacred and cursed because a spell of love and hatred will be cast. Milk and honey will be offered to the ancient motherland the witches, letting down their long hair sing their virginity to the moon. Only the spirits have eyes for them only the ancients can feed on their nude and sculputer bodies that dance in the darkness. The damp leaves stroke the hand on the lady of the witches, she who is rendered magic and potent with the oil, she is the lady of flight, she is the Mandragora. In the flash of lighting that cuts the darkness, the great dame is pulled from the earth, root that brings visions, love and hate, she is the Mandragora. Queen of the sabba. Bodies jerk in the frenetic dance, to the sound of screams from the infernal realm. The earth shakes and the witches sing, in honour of the goddess and the dark roots. She is the Mandragora that consecrates this great rite. |

Dark waters from the earth doors to the underworld, magical portal without return. Home for spirits guardians and demons. They live there where no one can pass Evil spirits with damned eyes. The eyes of the well. Glimmering and charming they hide the beauty of death inside. Don’t look into the well or you’ll fall down. Don’t look into the well or you’ll lost your aim. Fashinated by the deep you’ll become possessed by the eyes Vertigo will take your head as your body trembles in fear. A cold hand will touch your face and you’ll fall into the oblivion. Kissing the lips that have not to be touched, falling in the cold arms and their deadly embrace. Your life will become nourishment for the ancient entity that lives here since acons. Evil spirit with damned eyes. The eyes of the well. Don’t look into the well or you’ll fall down. Don’t look into th ewell or you’ll lost your aim. |

8. | Earth and Fire | 07:58 | Show lyrics |
Earth is mother. Nature is female. Fire is father, fire is male, fire is human justice. He isn’t opposed to Earth, but they slip the one into the other. The witch is earth’s daughter. She turns in ashes burning in the fire, so she can go back into earth’s embrace, si snake’s circle eternally turns. They taught her how to read birds’flight. And messages of leaves in the wind. The old maid shown her the ancient stone throne worn out by tempest and rain, but full of powerful magic. Every uneven Friday at sunset went the old maid to the throne, there at the crossing of three paths, to wash the stone with a white hen’s blood to wake up earth spirit’s might. But men, intoxicated by their silly pride forgot these holy powers, so spirits with a lightning smashed their souls and illness and death slaughtered them all. They taught her how to turn herself in a howl, and fly in moonless nights, and over the hills, and down in deep shafts, where she met her sisters, to celebrate season’s jubilation. They taught her how to change herself in a hare, to run away and hide herself in woods, from the ones who wanted to dominate her. When the dark red blood ran slowly and thick wetted her innocence between her white thights her mother told her the time had come for her to be a daughter of the Earth. A black haundled knife was her holy present, and she taught her to hold it, and how to take flower and herbs vibrations. She taught her what power stood still. In forests and woods, and hidden in deep roots. Power of life, power of death. But dark were those times, and finally sword prevailed on cup. So her body was parted from her soul. And her own children lighted her stake. In an august day of 1471. |

9. | Ecate - The Ritual (Intro) | 03:29 | Show lyrics |
I celebrate Ecate Trivia, loving protector of the roads, Terrain, sea and celestial, the crocus coloured cloak. Burial, firm with the souls of the dead. Daughter of Crio, lover of solitude and supreme of the stags. Nocturnal protector of dogs, invincible quee, announced by the howl of the beasts, unbeatable without a belt. Domer of bulls, the lady that keeps the keys to the cosmos. Mountain goer, guide, nymph, feeder of the young. Of the young girl that begs to assist in the sacred rites. Benevolent to her devotes, always with joyful soul. |

10. | Ecate | 06:04 | Show lyrics |
Through the sacred hole she stares at the three flames in the dark and damp ground. En Erebos, phos, In umbra lux Invoking her power, her effigy will come to life. Dance in a violent vortex of spirals and you will hear her voice. I celebrate Ecate lady of the crossroads, of the moon and the night. I celebrate Ecate in the woods of Avern. In your pale hands you raise the torch that lights our way. The way through the darkness where the shadows hide the sacred mysteries. Dark light of the three worlds, lady of the keys, guardian of hell and human psychi. Lighten my path to your winter reign with your moon scythe. Silver shines in her eyes, because you are the cast and the meretrice, the lymph and death. In your complete and stronger than any other, Guide me, because obscurity for you has no secrets In the Avern the torch dims out in the darkness. Ecate, Ecate, Dark Mother take me in. Ecate, Ecate, let me be reborn. Ecate, Ecate, let me be transformed. Ecate, Lady of the crossroads, I stand where three paths meet. Ecate, Lady of the crossroads, I ask that you guide my feet. |

11. | Nemus Tempora Maleficarum | 06:29 | Show lyrics |
La notte di san Giovanni venivano con cavalli bianchi, coperti da drappi dorati. Quando la luna bagnava il prato fra il Corno Bianco e quello Nero le donne scendevano da cavallo, scioglievano i capelli e raccoglievano i fiori che quella notte erano sbocciati. Primule ed arniche, calendule ed iperico, valeriana, capelli delle streghe e barbe di caprone. Lontano si sentiva un canto. Terra madre delle erbe, Luna madre dell’argento, Morte padre del ferro, Saturno padre del piombo e tu Zolfo che vieni dal profondo fiorite tutti nella notte di san Giovanni. Quello che si è sciolto nel grembo della terra lo ha bevuto l’acqua e si è fatto fiore. Si avvicina la mezzanotte, bisogna affrettarsi perché inizia il ballo. Angoscia di violini la danza emana odore e calore, la luna stringe il suo raggio. Dietro gli alberi fruscii e ombre e ghigni, le movenze si fanno più strette. La Luna tramonta. I sacchi delle erbe sono pieni. Tornano i cavalli a riportar le donne al Latemar e al Lagorai. Questo sino alla prossima luna. |

Ho un segreto, un segreto celato nel sogno. Gli alberi e gli spiriti ne sono custodi. Se vuoi conoscere spogliati della tua fede perché la croce ferma le anime e uccide il gran gioco. Non vestirti di sole ma della argentea madre notturna, luce della tenebra, unico fuoco sacro e profumato Dai suoi fiumi dipartono le schiere della selvaggia caccia. Loro, condottieri nel regno dei morti schiudono i cancelli dei mondi. Al suon del corno galoppano bianchi spettri alle brighe di Betric. Neri segugi veloci seguono in una corale infera e tonante tanto che chi non fa parte della buona gente sarebbe morta divorata dall’orribile visione. Loro sono anime inquiete, liberi spiriti silvani che tornano dalle loro sacre donne nate fate e morte spose del demonio. Luna splendente in una notte vestita di un antico manto. Canto a te divina madre, signora di vita e morte la mia storia notturna. |

1. | Sepulcro | 15:20 | Show lyrics |
I’m alone the night wind’s blowing on my face and the branches of the trees are crying in the big empty of this night. Step by step along the shadow path the black cloak of darkness opens the door in the place of eternal silence. Wha strange emotions are striking my body an obscure quiet is leading my mind my hands are touching the wet trees and the undergrowth is making my way blind among the mossy stones in the realm of the dead. The old ivy-mantled gate is creaking while I am opening the door of the whisper crypt. What a morbid force my soul has a hidden god is leading my steps. I am going down is this wet stairs in the stiffing dark only the noise of a drop of water is stressing the passing time I’m alone in this sepulcro. I humble being pieteously observe the men’s fragilty. Putrid bones put upon marble sacella are waiting for nothing while the cobwebs are covering the ancient effigies everything’s resting in a monumental silence here everything is forgotten here. I alone in this sepulcro will bring these relics back to life with my profane action. This is a sacred profanation that will give life to death the eternal life of memory. Alone in this sepulcro. |

2. | The Oak | 07:51 | Show lyrics |
In the whirls of time, turning their eyes toward the shadowy monumental symbols of the past, following the lines up to the places, where power and mystery reign some people raised many stones to the sun in their imposing silence. A warm wind is blowing in my face melting the ice of death. Burnt alive victims around the cromlec’h in honour of my immortality. Crucified on The Oak. My blood is trickling down it no light in this church made of trees some men in white are chanting their song to the altar of Cernunnos. Crucified on The Oak. Oh you, God of Moon, sanctify this magis ritual. In my heart there’s the power of glory, in my eyes the shine of the sword. Oh you, God of Death, rescue me from this fear, I will be your messenger, rescue me from this light. Oh Mother Darkness, receive the son of cruelty and wisdom. Crucified on The Oak, in honour of Esus. The earth is imbued with the blood of my God’s enemies and from flames a battle-cry is madly risen. Far away the death-song is going on with the crossing of the swords. The fog is hiding our temples made of stones and the Gods are silently waiting for the event. The bloody encounter between our Pagan Devotion and the only god. Ruins around The Oak. Corpses in oblivion. Sealed up by the light of reason. Oh, cursed mortals, which is the right way? |

3. | Act I. The First Seal | 09:40 | Show lyrics |
Dark and forgotten the times of these writings Timeless stones shape the walls of this site Arcane and powerful symbols traced on them May the moon lead my steps In the sacred search of supreme knowledge Waiting for his coming And it was gloom Somewhere in time In unknown lands ruled by an ancient magic In titanic forests 6 towers of power were built They guarded 6 sacred heirlooms, Protected by 6 seals They show the effigy of the god Who sits on the big black throne I mesmerize my soul To fly along the dusty paths of Acheron Looking for the magic circle of the black ring Toth Amon, prince of enchanters Tell me your secret Or I will tear it from death to death Running on a human blood river He feeds on blood The blood calls him His strength glows if the hands invoking him are stained with blood Where he shines, the blood is shed There the light’s kingdoms wobble There nature forces are shaken Thoth-Amon, give me the sword of sacrifice And the sacred cup I am gonna fill with lifeblood Give me the lance of almightiness And the potsherds of the black stone I’m gonna place on the altar of Dagon Entrust the sixth heirloom to me And so be it! And then a whirlwind struck my breast, freezing my soul The candle flames vanished announcing his coming 5 the tips and 5 the elements It is the blood in which I annihilate The sixth is the knowledge the supreme god, the bringer of light Engraved in the sixth heirloom The sacred book ordained to the devotee |

4. | Maleventum | 05:56 | Show lyrics |
It’s the night of shabat The plenilune feast Rise from your mortal sleep and let your astral body glide away With the sacred ointment Plunge into the new dream Follow the way of the secret life Silently graze archaic dimensions On water and over wind The god of woods call his sons, Enraptured by his power, Follow the divine melody The magic key. Penetrate the forest’s heart and be led to the sabbath, Till the flight’s end. Vivid flares flashing in darkness are reflected In the owl’s fixed eyes. Walk along the hidden paths Nine kinds of wood nourish fire and fire marks your destination It reveals the glade And the walnut you knew through the deer’s eyes Maleventum A long black robe appears among the trees His gaze lighted upon the moon His barbarian hymn hails to the moon Nine words of nine letters thunder in silence And the night’s star reveals its secret nature. (hi)s shout opens the black diamond doors the circle holds on tight to him the old chant sing out.. Palas Aron Ozimonas Baske Bano Tudan Donas Geheamel Cla Orlay Berec he pantaras tay. |

1. | Alone in the Dark | 18:28 | Show lyrics |
Eternal suffering. Everlasting oblivion of tears falling into the dust. I want to die. But the three mothers don’t grip my hand they want the cycle to be completed. I’m walking through this autumnal mist where everything dies and where everything’s anguish and loneliness. I mortify my heart with love’s pain and fall into the hollow deep abyss. I’m alone in the dark my being transfixed by a circle of shining souls but their laments can nothing against frost hate and the macabre veil winding my soul in an obscure seal. I would shed blood but something’s hindering that to me which dark force gives my spirit strength thou condemned to wander in this mist thick as pain I’m alone in Mater Tenebra. Amen. I enjoy this event.I son of darkness drink my tears from the calix of the god who never forsakes who turns defeat into victory. I raise my hands up towards the northern icy wind and to the nothing I yell. Th at vision is mild and pure wrapped into the torments wind I stretch out my hand but everything disappears so I close the circle of fire once more and I find myself again alone in the dark. I celebrate the ancient names of this pagan winter looking for lymph and power for his soul now I’ve lost into emptiness. Lost in Mater Tenebra. Satan’s masses mutate the weak. |

2. | Esteban’s Promise | 07:04 | Show lyrics |
I (myself) Esteban son of the dark side, illuminated monarch of the abyss (which is) forgotten by the divine light I’m alive. Ancient now inexistent laws, which have been destroyed by you man, prevented me from waking up. I will come riding a black dragon in delirium winds and anguish wings purify the air ’cause I’m coming and sacrifice to the big tree with fire and blood. I Esteban promise... Power and glory in the anarchy of evil to you poor mortals unite in my magic circle in a way without return swear in me voices in the wind voices from a moan which fades in a delirium like the weak dust settles on the ruins of the past. Oh lost souls in the whirl of the infinite Esteban is alive... and so is the legend... |

3. | The Call of the Wood | 11:10 | Show lyrics |
Beyond the valley of the silence along the paths of ancient knowledge led from the dense odours of the wind. You will find yourself in the holy wood consecrated to the primordial gods. Baptized with the dew around the oak of this Wiccian’s mass celebrated from the warbling of the crows, og great mother moon. Ishtar, Astarte, Inanna, let me feed at your breast let me celebrate the fertile union of the horned god with the pure white goddess. Follow the call of the wood. Follow the voice of the god. Celebrate in the Nemeton with red candles and autumnal flowers on the stone altar. Dress yourself with the sky in the magic circle and purify yourself with the sacred incense of Cernunnos. Bless me mother, ’cause I am your son. Blessed be my eyes, therefore I can find your way. Blessed be my nose, therefore I can breath your essence. Blessed be my mouth, therefore I can talk about you. Blessed be my chest, therefore I can be faithful to you. Blessed be my ancestry, therefore I can give life to men and women. as you gave life to the universe. Blessed be my feet, therefore I can follow your way. Let the last smoke disappear carried from the wind. Rise your eyes full of astral energy and look at the crow that will lead your return to silence. Let the night fall down on you as the death curtain falls down on life. You’ll be reborn...

4. | Al Azif | 08:57 | Show lyrics |
What can wait forever isn’t dead and in the long run, even death dies. The Ancient were, the Ancient are, the Ancient will be. They walked in this world, after knowing the kingdom of stars, and the stars will pre-announce their coming. But bfore then the day of men will passed. They’ll descend through the door, they’ll break the seals and their claws will free themselves from the ancient vice, they’ll find the way in the labyrinth of time ’cause for Yog-Sothoth time is only one thing. So they’ll go back and reign where they reigned once and their oaths will contaminate the earth. Oh, poor wretch you flatter yourself that you exploit their immense strength and their dirty power. Count the seasons observe the sun and the stars and when you have risen the stones and implored their power that will be the door through which you can call them out of time and space. So you will hear their terrible voices you will see ever-burning malign flames but you won’t know the striking hand and the destroying soul ’cause they come without a face and men don’t know their forms. But be cautious in acting so that the tentacles of darkness can’t pentrate your soul as the man who was too darling lost his vital force and chaos appeared to his mind. |

I’m alone the night wind’s blowing on my face and the branches of the trees are crying in the big empty of this night. Step by step along the shadow path the black cloak of darkness opens the door in the place of eternal silence. Wha strange emotions are striking my body an obscure quiet is leading my mind my hands are touching the wet trees and the undergrowth is making my way blind among the mossy stones in the realm of the dead. The old ivy-mantled gate is creaking while I am opening the door of the whisper crypt. What a morbid force my soul has a hidden god is leading my steps. I am going down is this wet stairs in the stiffing dark only the noise of a drop of water is stressing the passing time I’m alone in this sepulcro. I humble being pieteously observe the men’s fragilty. Putrid bones put upon marble sacella are waiting for nothing while the cobwebs are covering the ancient effigies everything’s resting in a monumental silence here everything is forgotten here. I alone in this sepulcro will bring these relics back to life with my profane action. This is a sacred profanation that will give life to death the eternal life of memory. Alone in this sepulcro. |

6. | Born in the Grave | 05:02 | Show lyrics |
The mournful sound of a bell, people in prayer. My body abandoned in the solitude of the wood, imprisoned by the rags, compelled to suffer from the frostry contact with the ground. In the unbroken silence I’m seized with shuddering. I turn into matter and then into dust. She flew up. An imperceptible ascent in the knowledge dimension, she penetrates the darkest maze of the infinite universe. My ignorant body will never know the eternity formulas. Uh, I’m still, She’s fluid. I’m frozen. She’s wrapped up in the warmest blows of knowledge, she flies free. The secret will be revealed to her: the ingenious one. |

1. | Alone in the Dark | 18:28 | Show lyrics |
Eternal suffering. Everlasting oblivion of tears falling into the dust. I want to die. But the three mothers don’t grip my hand they want the cycle to be completed. I’m walking through this autumnal mist where everything dies and where everything’s anguish and loneliness. I mortify my heart with love’s pain and fall into the hollow deep abyss. I’m alone in the dark my being transfixed by a circle of shining souls but their laments can nothing against frost hate and the macabre veil winding my soul in an obscure seal. I would shed blood but something’s hindering that to me which dark force gives my spirit strength thou condemned to wander in this mist thick as pain I’m alone in Mater Tenebra. Amen. I enjoy this event.I son of darkness drink my tears from the calix of the god who never forsakes who turns defeat into victory. I raise my hands up towards the northern icy wind and to the nothing I yell. Th at vision is mild and pure wrapped into the torments wind I stretch out my hand but everything disappears so I close the circle of fire once more and I find myself again alone in the dark. I celebrate the ancient names of this pagan winter looking for lymph and power for his soul now I’ve lost into emptiness. Lost in Mater Tenebra. Satan’s masses mutate the weak. |

I (myself) Esteban son of the dark side, illuminated monarch of the abyss (which is) forgotten by the divine light I’m alive. Ancient now inexistent laws, which have been destroyed by you man, prevented me from waking up. I will come riding a black dragon in delirium winds and anguish wings purify the air ’cause I’m coming and sacrifice to the big tree with fire and blood. I Esteban promise... Power and glory in the anarchy of evil to you poor mortals unite in my magic circle in a way without return swear in me voices in the wind voices from a moan which fades in a delirium like the weak dust settles on the ruins of the past. Oh lost souls in the whirl of the infinite Esteban is alive... and so is the legend... |

Beyond the valley of the silence along the paths of ancient knowledge led from the dense odours of the wind. You will find yourself in the holy wood consecrated to the primordial gods. Baptized with the dew around the oak of this Wiccian’s mass celebrated from the warbling of the crows, og great mother moon. Ishtar, Astarte, Inanna, let me feed at your breast let me celebrate the fertile union of the horned god with the pure white goddess. Follow the call of the wood. Follow the voice of the god. Celebrate in the Nemeton with red candles and autumnal flowers on the stone altar. Dress yourself with the sky in the magic circle and purify yourself with the sacred incense of Cernunnos. Bless me mother, ’cause I am your son. Blessed be my eyes, therefore I can find your way. Blessed be my nose, therefore I can breath your essence. Blessed be my mouth, therefore I can talk about you. Blessed be my chest, therefore I can be faithful to you. Blessed be my ancestry, therefore I can give life to men and women. as you gave life to the universe. Blessed be my feet, therefore I can follow your way. Let the last smoke disappear carried from the wind. Rise your eyes full of astral energy and look at the crow that will lead your return to silence. Let the night fall down on you as the death curtain falls down on life. You’ll be reborn...

What can wait forever isn’t dead and in the long run, even death dies. The Ancient were, the Ancient are, the Ancient will be. They walked in this world, after knowing the kingdom of stars, and the stars will pre-announce their coming. But bfore then the day of men will passed. They’ll descend through the door, they’ll break the seals and their claws will free themselves from the ancient vice, they’ll find the way in the labyrinth of time ’cause for Yog-Sothoth time is only one thing. So they’ll go back and reign where they reigned once and their oaths will contaminate the earth. Oh, poor wretch you flatter yourself that you exploit their immense strength and their dirty power. Count the seasons observe the sun and the stars and when you have risen the stones and implored their power that will be the door through which you can call them out of time and space. So you will hear their terrible voices you will see ever-burning malign flames but you won’t know the striking hand and the destroying soul ’cause they come without a face and men don’t know their forms. But be cautious in acting so that the tentacles of darkness can’t pentrate your soul as the man who was too darling lost his vital force and chaos appeared to his mind. |

So they’ll go back and reign where they reigned once and their oaths will contaminate the earth. Oh, poor wretch you flatter yourself that you exploit their immense strength and their dirty power. Count the seasons observe the sun and the stars and when you have risen the stones and implored their power that will be the door through which you can call them out of time and space. So you will hear their terrible voices you will see ever-burning malign flames but you won’t know the striking hand and the destroying soul ’cause they come without a face and men don’t know their forms. But be cautious in acting so that the tentacles of darkness can’t pentrate your soul as the man who was too darling lost his vital force and chaos appeared to his mind. |

2. | Sepulcro | 13:45 | Show lyrics |
I’m alone the night wind’s blowing on my face and the branches of the trees are crying in the big empty of this night. Step by step along the shadow path the black cloak of darkness opens the door in the place of eternal silence. Wha strange emotions are striking my body an obscure quiet is leading my mind my hands are touching the wet trees and the undergrowth is making my way blind among the mossy stones in the realm of the dead. The old ivy-mantled gate is creaking while I am opening the door of the whisper crypt. What a morbid force my soul has a hidden god is leading my steps. I am going down is this wet stairs in the stiffing dark only the noise of a drop of water is stressing the passing time I’m alone in this sepulcro. I humble being pieteously observe the men’s fragilty. Putrid bones put upon marble sacella are waiting for nothing while the cobwebs are covering the ancient effigies everything’s resting in a monumental silence here everything is forgotten here. I alone in this sepulcro will bring these relics back to life with my profane action. This is a sacred profanation that will give life to death the eternal life of memory. Alone in this sepulcro. |

1. | The Oak | 10:40 | Show lyrics |
In the whirls of time, turning their eyes toward the shadowy monumental symbols of the past, following the lines up to the places, where power and mystery reign some people raised many stones to the sun in their imposing silence. A warm wind is blowing in my face melting the ice of death. Burnt alive victims around the cromlec’h in honour of my immortality. Crucified on The Oak. My blood is trickling down it no light in this church made of trees some men in white are chanting their song to the altar of Cernunnos. Crucified on The Oak. Oh you, God of Moon, sanctify this magis ritual. In my heart there’s the power of glory, in my eyes the shine of the sword. Oh you, God of Death, rescue me from this fear, I will be your messenger, rescue me from this light. Oh Mother Darkness, receive the son of cruelty and wisdom. Crucified on The Oak, in honour of Esus. The earth is imbued with the blood of my God’s enemies and from flames a battle-cry is madly risen. Far away the death-song is going on with the crossing of the swords. The fog is hiding our temples made of stones and the Gods are silently waiting for the event. The bloody encounter between our Pagan Devotion and the only god. Ruins around The Oak. Corpses in oblivion. Sealed up by the light of reason. Oh, cursed mortals, which is the right way? |

2. | Fronds of the Ancient Walnut | 12:25 | Show lyrics |
Feel the breeze on my face the icy breath of the Goddess. I raise my hand and touch the illusion. My mind is powerful and my Ego is high as the mountain in front of me. Clouds run fast and silence comes from the Fronds of the Ancient Walnut: no scents, no odors, no sounds, no laments; the cold vanishes... I get all the colors all around me and I see the enchanting dance of the branches: it is the Walnut calling the witches, it is our dream voyaging through the aethyr. What was not becomes reality. I am the deer running to the Sabbath! I am the crow which observes the silence! I am the craftsman of myself... therefore I praise the Horned and the Great Mother! And where the wind blows, at the mercy of the oneiric, it is the touch of the world’s spirits which enhances my magic. Mind’s spreading, faint voices chant at the moon, the silvering light of Levanah penetrates the unconscious and revives the Ancient Knowledge. I take flight, the dance is over. Now we are the deer returning from the Sabbath! Now we are the crow which contemplated the silence! Now we are the craftsmen of ourselves... therefore we praise the Horned and the Great Mother! |

3. | The Naked and the Dance | 08:20 | Show lyrics |
The fresh humidity of the green moss wets my skin, my body laying down, as it suits to who adores a god, over the sacred stones of the Cromlec’h. Our bodies clinging each other, what is of the One becomes of the Many. The incense smoke dances with the candles flames attracting the celebrants astral energies. The choral worshipping of the Black Goddess raises from our minds, what is of the Many becomes of the One. The sacred wine shall fill the cup which turned was in the goatish horn, the fertile lips shall kiss the rod which life and shape took from the walnut. An the Nine shall come at the beginning of the dance, the naked feet shall caress Sheela Na Gog, the naked bodies moistened by wood’s breath, the naked minds dancing in the air, and the shrewd spirits, by sacred fire inebriated, shall turn to whirl, and once more the Great Spiral shall be Tregenda one and seven to celebrate the thirteen fullnesses of Levanah, who of ancient memory made arcane magic mortal. Simple melodies by “Her Who guides” vibrated, enchantements of witches for millenniums hand down, bodies like veils fluttering to paint the Great Dance offered to the sky as a tribute of the soul drag into oblivion. May I rejoin the stars, free my astral, embrace Knowledge and in the All regenerate myself now beast now man, till to reborn from the effluviums of my ethereal spirit God I Myself, God among Gods, deserving of my devotion and of my passion! Sacrifical victim for those who welcome me heir and part of the All. |

Gorgot Assai Belem. May the Great Portal open to me, my voice thunder in thy name and for the power of the Lords of the Great Frost. The whirling air of the North guide my spirit in the quest for glorious past. And it was in the mist of time that the death fires floodlighted darkness the wind brought the smell of blood, the air of extermination and the exterminators outcry. The blades of sacrifice deepened in the flesh and the nerves and the black seers raised hearts still pulsating to unnamable Gods for their obscure prophecies. Prepare now your soul for the embrace of the sacred death, may water suffocate your breath and flame consume your flesh, all this so that Teutates, Esus and Taranis protect my people. Heavy and slow were the treads of the black warriors in the Aeron’s march, dust rising like whirls while the horrible Crow turned His eyes to the battle remains. Morighon was reigning among the stones of the timeless, where the stars engraved their symbols and under the brightness of the moon the initiates were enlighted on the Great Secrets. I want to reopen my eyes to look beyond the horizon of fear, My God is in me, in the strenght of my arm, in the light of my sword. Crom. I raise my arms to Andraste, so that only massacre be in my eyes. Crom. To the threshold of the abyss I kneel, so that the Three Furies invade my soul. Crom. With wine I honour the Gods, so that inebriation draws me near them. Crom. My face I paint of moon like all the sons of the dying sun lands, I belong to Her. Crom is in me. Remote are now those archaic deeds in the mist of time, and the Cimmeries testimonials sleep in the obscure silence of the tumulus like ancient relics, mighty sigils to fragile ashes. But the choirs will thunder again Gorgot Necrod Belem. May the Great Portal close to you. |

Under the moonlight, bitter falls a tear over the face of memories. Oh, shining blade! Cut my flesh, so that be the Sacred Fire nourished by my vital fluid. And you! Spirits of the Air, leave smoke as a sign of my rite. Stone after stone, I create my Lucus and so I divide the world of human dimension from the one of Gods. How wonderful falling into this darkness. Blow up the last torches and shut up your eternal chant. Lucifer! Helel Ben Shahar. Shining Master of light, Prince of dawn, wipe the shadows out of my spirit, banish weakness from my body, give me the strangth of Power, let my throat be ripped up by crying My Devotion. In my devotion the sign of Voor. In my devotion the sword of Hathoor. May the four elements become my allies, may the faith of darkness be my weapon and the spirit my temple. Son of time’s forces, deter my mind from the wicked ignorance of the Lambs of god. In my devotion the sign of Voor. In my devotion the sacred Tor. The circle of power be a sacred place, shield and protection from the followers of the nazarene. Light in the light and light in the darkness. I seize my nature, the five edged star adorns my breast and my hands clutch the club. We are wolves in the sacred wood of life. In my devotion the sign of Voor. In my devotion Bathym Belem Gomor. Take me, oh ferryman, through the vision of my death, the heat of the Great Black Veil. My hearse brought in slow procession by the No Named, my reunion with Mother Earth, the keeper of the dreams last turning his clepsydra, the breaking up of the black mirror and The Guardians of the threshold will open the last Portal. Let the candles burn out, darkness consumes light, time divours life. My Eternal Devotion to Darkness. |

I raise my eyes at dead of night I hear the silence moulding my body I hear the damp and living ground throbbing I belong to it. I’m the guardian of this land, I’m Dracula, Prince of Walacchia. My name is synonymous with fear and terror which I sowed and grew and which I fed on. I led an army of dead soldiers that I myself had raised from their graves. I spread death and destruction. Stifling smell of blood and excrements, desperate cries, sobs. Thousands of corpses rotted in the sun. Thousands of poles rose as I passed. My head beheaded and laid down. The law: my law. I was Vlad, the Impaler, nobody could obstruct my path. And the powerful Turks come in crowds. And the new forest came up, forest of fright and blood. And the sultan of gold and silk came with his numerous army, thousand of persons were horribly impaled and crowds came, crowds of enemies. And at the end I was surrounded. Chill, blood, horror of an irrepressible slaughter. By then I was a prince without land. And from the ground a whisper, the whisper of the dead, rose: "Dracula, please, come back!" |

The choral worshipping of the Black Goddess raises from our minds, what is of the Many becomes of the One. The sacred wine shall fill the cup which turned was in the goatish horn, the fertile lips shall kiss the rod which life and shape took from the walnut. An the Nine shall come at the beginning of the dance, the naked feet shall caress Sheela Na Gog, the naked bodies moistened by wood’s breath, the naked minds dancing in the air, and the shrewd spirits, by sacred fire inebriated, shall turn to whirl, and once more the Great Spiral shall be Tregenda one and seven to celebrate the thirteen fullnesses of Levanah, who of ancient memory made arcane magic mortal. Simple melodies by “Her Who guides” vibrated, enchantements of witches for millenniums hand down, bodies like veils fluttering to paint the Great Dance offered to the sky as a tribute of the soul drag into oblivion. May I rejoin the stars, free my astral, embrace Knowledge and in the All regenerate myself now beast now man, till to reborn from the effluviums of my ethereal spirit God I Myself, God among Gods, deserving of my devotion and of my passion! Sacrifical victim for those who welcome me heir and part of the All. |

Gorgot Assai Belem. May the Great Portal open to me, my voice thunder in thy name and for the power of the Lords of the Great Frost. The whirling air of the North guide my spirit in the quest for glorious past. And it was in the mist of time that the death fires floodlighted darkness the wind brought the smell of blood, the air of extermination and the exterminators outcry. The blades of sacrifice deepened in the flesh and the nerves and the black seers raised hearts still pulsating to unnamable Gods for their obscure prophecies. Prepare now your soul for the embrace of the sacred death, may water suffocate your breath and flame consume your flesh, all this so that Teutates, Esus and Taranis protect my people. Heavy and slow were the treads of the black warriors in the Aeron’s march, dust rising like whirls while the horrible Crow turned His eyes to the battle remains. Morighon was reigning among the stones of the timeless, where the stars engraved their symbols and under the brightness of the moon the initiates were enlighted on the Great Secrets. I want to reopen my eyes to look beyond the horizon of fear, My God is in me, in the strenght of my arm, in the light of my sword. Crom. I raise my arms to Andraste, so that only massacre be in my eyes. Crom. To the threshold of the abyss I kneel, so that the Three Furies invade my soul. Crom. With wine I honour the Gods, so that inebriation draws me near them. Crom. My face I paint of moon like all the sons of the dying sun lands, I belong to Her. Crom is in me. Remote are now those archaic deeds in the mist of time, and the Cimmeries testimonials sleep in the obscure silence of the tumulus like ancient relics, mighty sigils to fragile ashes. But the choirs will thunder again Gorgot Necrod Belem. May the Great Portal close to you. |

5. | My Devotion | 14:59 | Show lyrics |
Under the moonlight, bitter falls a tear over the face of memories. Oh, shining blade! Cut my flesh, so that be the Sacred Fire nourished by my vital fluid. And you! Spirits of the Air, leave smoke as a sign of my rite. Stone after stone, I create my Lucus and so I divide the world of human dimension from the one of Gods. How wonderful falling into this darkness. Blow up the last torches and shut up your eternal chant. Lucifer! Helel Ben Shahar. Shining Master of light, Prince of dawn, wipe the shadows out of my spirit, banish weakness from my body, give me the strangth of Power, let my throat be ripped up by crying My Devotion. In my devotion the sign of Voor. In my devotion the sword of Hathoor. May the four elements become my allies, may the faith of darkness be my weapon and the spirit my temple. Son of time’s forces, deter my mind from the wicked ignorance of the Lambs of god. In my devotion the sign of Voor. In my devotion the sacred Tor. The circle of power be a sacred place, shield and protection from the followers of the nazarene. Light in the light and light in the darkness. I seize my nature, the five edged star adorns my breast and my hands clutch the club. We are wolves in the sacred wood of life. In my devotion the sign of Voor. In my devotion Bathym Belem Gomor. Take me, oh ferryman, through the vision of my death, the heat of the Great Black Veil. My hearse brought in slow procession by the No Named, my reunion with Mother Earth, the keeper of the dreams last turning his clepsydra, the breaking up of the black mirror and The Guardians of the threshold will open the last Portal. Let the candles burn out, darkness consumes light, time divours life. My Eternal Devotion to Darkness. |

I raise my eyes at dead of night I hear the silence moulding my body I hear the damp and living ground throbbing I belong to it. I’m the guardian of this land, I’m Dracula, Prince of Walacchia. My name is synonymous with fear and terror which I sowed and grew and which I fed on. I led an army of dead soldiers that I myself had raised from their graves. I spread death and destruction. Stifling smell of blood and excrements, desperate cries, sobs. Thousands of corpses rotted in the sun. Thousands of poles rose as I passed. My head beheaded and laid down. The law: my law. I was Vlad, the Impaler, nobody could obstruct my path. And the powerful Turks come in crowds. And the new forest came up, forest of fright and blood. And the sultan of gold and silk came with his numerous army, thousand of persons were horribly impaled and crowds came, crowds of enemies. And at the end I was surrounded. Chill, blood, horror of an irrepressible slaughter. By then I was a prince without land. And from the ground a whisper, the whisper of the dead, rose: "Dracula, please, come back!" |

1. | The Oak | 10:40 | Show lyrics |
In the whirls of time, turning their eyes toward the shadowy monumental symbols of the past, following the lines up to the places, where power and mystery reign some people raised many stones to the sun in their imposing silence. A warm wind is blowing in my face melting the ice of death. Burnt alive victims around the cromlec’h in honour of my immortality. Crucified on The Oak. My blood is trickling down it no light in this church made of trees some men in white are chanting their song to the altar of Cernunnos. Crucified on The Oak. Oh you, God of Moon, sanctify this magis ritual. In my heart there’s the power of glory, in my eyes the shine of the sword. Oh you, God of Death, rescue me from this fear, I will be your messenger, rescue me from this light. Oh Mother Darkness, receive the son of cruelty and wisdom. Crucified on The Oak, in honour of Esus. The earth is imbued with the blood of my God’s enemies and from flames a battle-cry is madly risen. Far away the death-song is going on with the crossing of the swords. The fog is hiding our temples made of stones and the Gods are silently waiting for the event. The bloody encounter between our Pagan Devotion and the only god. Ruins around The Oak. Corpses in oblivion. Sealed up by the light of reason. Oh, cursed mortals, which is the right way? |

Feel the breeze on my face the icy breath of the Goddess. I raise my hand and touch the illusion. My mind is powerful and my Ego is high as the mountain in front of me. Clouds run fast and silence comes from the Fronds of the Ancient Walnut: no scents, no odors, no sounds, no laments; the cold vanishes... I get all the colors all around me and I see the enchanting dance of the branches: it is the Walnut calling the witches, it is our dream voyaging through the aethyr. What was not becomes reality. I am the deer running to the Sabbath! I am the crow which observes the silence! I am the craftsman of myself... therefore I praise the Horned and the Great Mother! And where the wind blows, at the mercy of the oneiric, it is the touch of the world’s spirits which enhances my magic. Mind’s spreading, faint voices chant at the moon, the silvering light of Levanah penetrates the unconscious and revives the Ancient Knowledge. I take flight, the dance is over. Now we are the deer returning from the Sabbath! Now we are the crow which contemplated the silence! Now we are the craftsmen of ourselves... therefore we praise the Horned and the Great Mother! |

Take me, oh ferryman, through the vision of my death, the heat of the Great Black Veil. My hearse brought in slow procession by the No Named, my reunion with Mother Earth, the keeper of the dreams last turning his clepsydra, the breaking up of the black mirror and The Guardians of the threshold will open the last Portal. Let the candles burn out, darkness consumes light, time divours life. My Eternal Devotion to Darkness. |

6. | Under the Sign of the Red Dragon | 11:18 | Show lyrics |
I raise my eyes at dead of night I hear the silence moulding my body I hear the damp and living ground throbbing I belong to it. I’m the guardian of this land, I’m Dracula, Prince of Walacchia. My name is synonymous with fear and terror which I sowed and grew and which I fed on. I led an army of dead soldiers that I myself had raised from their graves. I spread death and destruction. Stifling smell of blood and excrements, desperate cries, sobs. Thousands of corpses rotted in the sun. Thousands of poles rose as I passed. My head beheaded and laid down. The law: my law. I was Vlad, the Impaler, nobody could obstruct my path. And the powerful Turks come in crowds. And the new forest came up, forest of fright and blood. And the sultan of gold and silk came with his numerous army, thousand of persons were horribly impaled and crowds came, crowds of enemies. And at the end I was surrounded. Chill, blood, horror of an irrepressible slaughter. By then I was a prince without land. And from the ground a whisper, the whisper of the dead, rose: "Dracula, please, come back!" |

1. | Act I: The First Seal | 09:39 | Show lyrics |
Dark and forgotten the times of these writings Timeless stones shape the walls of this site Arcane and powerful symbols traced on them May the moon lead my steps In the sacred search of supreme knowledge Waiting for his coming And it was gloom Somewhere in time In unknown lands ruled by an ancient magic In titanic forests 6 towers of power were built They guarded 6 sacred heirlooms, Protected by 6 seals They show the effigy of the god Who sits on the big black throne I mesmerize my soul To fly along the dusty paths of Acheron Looking for the magic circle of the black ring Toth Amon, prince of enchanters Tell me your secret Or I will tear it from death to death Running on a human blood river He feeds on blood The blood calls him His strength glows if the hands invoking him are stained with blood Where he shines, the blood is shed There the light’s kingdoms wobble There nature forces are shaken Thoth-Amon, give me the sword of sacrifice And the sacred cup I am gonna fill with lifeblood Give me the lance of almightiness And the potsherds of the black stone I’m gonna place on the altar of Dagon Entrust the sixth heirloom to me And so be it! And then a whirlwind struck my breast, freezing my soul The candle flames vanished announcing his coming 5 the tips and 5 the elements It is the blood in which I annihilate The sixth is the knowledge the supreme god, the bringer of light Engraved in the sixth heirloom The sacred book ordained to the devotee |

Dancing flames reflect a purple light Dyeing the room with a mysterious stillness Wrapped in the ineoriating haze of the fumed incense We were sitting at the table pleasantly stunned by the sweet pungent smell of storax Martyrized with ircos, oleum libani, commiphora The white goddess was ruling the night And the old bell heralded the arrival of Kephra Our fingers were riding the ethereal dimension which embraces everything "I’m the guardian of the east gates, master of the whirling air I am him who opens the threshold The portal is opened to you, holders of the ninth key" I think their sound and technique In the intensity of powers The ninth evoked energy was waiting for us Beyond the black diamond gates it sounds great, and for me it’s "My name is Astharoth-Astarte" it hurled "I am him-her who walks in the dark Who will lead you to ecstasy I will give you the power of revenge ’Cause you are my sons May the power of evil be with you So that your souls can prepare for the call In a place, sacred to you, celebrate with dances, chants and fires You will couple in rapture And I will enjoy your lust I am the ninth key, the ninth flame of hell Young, chaste with innocent fleshes You will fetch her to me" Magic resins have worn out Scents have faded Tum, patient, is waiting But He-She is still walking with us |

The way leading to him is unknown and steep And the bodies rests of those who didn’t deserve him make it slippery But it is at the borders of my soul, so I know the secrets to walk along it staying unhurt The threshold of his abode is barred by a tangle of infected thorns But my soul keeps its key His throne is shielded by 12 servants’ stare But he has called me, I felt him calling me And he has given me the power to bewitch them His rooms are icy But he warms my naked body with his breath The throb and the blood flow suspend In the presence of him His eyes, diabolical larvas his pupils, scan me His glance captures me and penetrates my breast Goblet of delicious vermilion wine I give myself up to his grim embrace Throb of death He is the storm He is the breeze He is the aurora He is the twilight He is the everlasting mind in the timeless abyss He injures and sates my lips He lessens my hunger He appeases my thirst He is fire burning my flesh He is icy snow settling in my womb Rod of viscid serpents Death and blood excite him And my blood is the balm for his ecstasy and his voracious delight Putrid carrion with burnt seales Obscure seducer with smooth scented skin of infant Now I know you But he has always known me |

The sacred fire burns in the stone circle In the centre of the all I’m waiting for the guardian Powerful thunders rumble in the air And lightnings herald the storm Darkness turns into light and light grows into darkness While the salamanders are continuing to dance in the heart of fire The moon stops growing She stretches the fronds shades as spectral witnesses And Eurus, the east wind, gives them life 6 are the towers, 4 are the revealed seals And now I am waiting for the next one Thunder is rumbling again Like the dragon’s awakening from the deep abyss I honour the dark simulacrum of the depth’s gates That is silently waiting for the event’s completion I desert the realm of chaos and I liberate over the infernal rivers I follow the way of the red snake Ancestral flight ...into the depth I will celebrate the umpteenth passage ritual A new baptism in a space without time Tisipnon, fury of the occult power, is waiting for me To deliver me the black book of the supreme knowledge I cross the hidden paths of Shaytan to violate the ayernus gates That raise from the deep abyss up to the horrid vault 3 are the bronze doors and 3 of iron and 3 of diamonds They are wrapped up by an eternal fire That makes all red-hot but nothing destroys At the sides of the awful passage 2 guardians are waiting for me [First guardian:] "Be aware of your virtue, oh animal, and the abyss With its spectres will be overcome Rejoyce as a new spirit and the barking of the Infernal beasts will become silvery chant Beyond these portals you can join the perfect lightof the space without time" "I am Angelikos Phosphoros, Lucifer, Morning Star" [Second guardian:] "Welcome spiritual warrior who, conscious and daring, utters the secret name Before the black diamond gates Welcome ensign of light This pathway knows the steps, dreads and triumphs of your search Welcome insane hero, the only one who has descended the stairs of damnation You, blazing sun, dare-devil who faces the hades to win yourself" "I greet and thank you, obscure guardians, who allow my passage Without rending my flesh.

Dancing flames reflect a purple light Dyeing the room with a mysterious stillness Wrapped in the ineoriating haze of the fumed incense We were sitting at the table pleasantly stunned by the sweet pungent smell of storax Martyrized with ircos, oleum libani, commiphora The white goddess was ruling the night And the old bell heralded the arrival of Kephra Our fingers were riding the ethereal dimension which embraces everything "I’m the guardian of the east gates, master of the whirling air I am him who opens the threshold The portal is opened to you, holders of the ninth key" I think their sound and technique In the intensity of powers The ninth evoked energy was waiting for us Beyond the black diamond gates it sounds great, and for me it’s "My name is Astharoth-Astarte" it hurled "I am him-her who walks in the dark Who will lead you to ecstasy I will give you the power of revenge ’Cause you are my sons May the power of evil be with you So that your souls can prepare for the call In a place, sacred to you, celebrate with dances, chants and fires You will couple in rapture And I will enjoy your lust I am the ninth key, the ninth flame of hell Young, chaste with innocent fleshes You will fetch her to me" Magic resins have worn out Scents have faded Tum, patient, is waiting But He-She is still walking with us |

White on white translucent black capes back on the rack. Bela Lugosi’s dead. The bats have left the bell tower, the victims have been bled, red velvet lines the black box. Bela Lugosi’s dead.

Oh Bela, Bela’s undead. |

Dark and forgotten the times of these writings Timeless stones shape the walls of this site Arcane and powerful symbols traced on them May the moon lead my steps In the sacred search of supreme knowledge Waiting for his coming And it was gloom Somewhere in time In unknown lands ruled by an ancient magic In titanic forests 6 towers of power were built They guarded 6 sacred heirlooms, Protected by 6 seals They show the effigy of the god Who sits on the big black throne I mesmerize my soul To fly along the dusty paths of Acheron Looking for the magic circle of the black ring Toth Amon, prince of enchanters Tell me your secret Or I will tear it from death to death Running on a human blood river He feeds on blood The blood calls him His strength glows if the hands invoking him are stained with blood Where he shines, the blood is shed There the light’s kingdoms wobble There nature forces are shaken Thoth-Amon, give me the sword of sacrifice And the sacred cup I am gonna fill with lifeblood Give me the lance of almightiness And the potsherds of the black stone I’m gonna place on the altar of Dagon Entrust the sixth heirloom to me And so be it! And then a whirlwind struck my breast, freezing my soul The candle flames vanished announcing his coming 5 the tips and 5 the elements It is the blood in which I annihilate The sixth is the knowledge the supreme god, the bringer of light Engraved in the sixth heirloom The sacred book ordained to the devotee |

White on white translucent black capes back on the rack. Bela Lugosi’s dead. The bats have left the bell tower, the victims have been bled, red velvet lines the black box. Bela Lugosi’s dead. Undead Undead Undead. The virginal brides file past his tomb, strewn with time’s dead flowers, bereft in deathly bloom, alone in a darkened room the count. Bela Lugosi’s dead. Undead Undead Undead. Oh Bela, Bela’s undead. |

1. | Act I: The First Seal | 09:39 | Show lyrics |
Dark and forgotten the times of these writings Timeless stones shape the walls of this site Arcane and powerful symbols traced on them May the moon lead my steps In the sacred search of supreme knowledge Waiting for his coming And it was gloom Somewhere in time In unknown lands ruled by an ancient magic In titanic forests 6 towers of power were built They guarded 6 sacred heirlooms, Protected by 6 seals They show the effigy of the god Who sits on the big black throne I mesmerize my soul To fly along the dusty paths of Acheron Looking for the magic circle of the black ring Toth Amon, prince of enchanters Tell me your secret Or I will tear it from death to death Running on a human blood river He feeds on blood The blood calls him His strength glows if the hands invoking him are stained with blood Where he shines, the blood is shed There the light’s kingdoms wobble There nature forces are shaken Thoth-Amon, give me the sword of sacrifice And the sacred cup I am gonna fill with lifeblood Give me the lance of almightiness And the potsherds of the black stone I’m gonna place on the altar of Dagon Entrust the sixth heirloom to me And so be it! And then a whirlwind struck my breast, freezing my soul The candle flames vanished announcing his coming 5 the tips and 5 the elements It is the blood in which I annihilate The sixth is the knowledge the supreme god, the bringer of light Engraved in the sixth heirloom The sacred book ordained to the devotee |

2. | Act II: Beyond the Black Diamond Gates | 07:14 | Show lyrics |
Dancing flames reflect a purple light Dyeing the room with a mysterious stillness Wrapped in the ineoriating haze of the fumed incense We were sitting at the table pleasantly stunned by the sweet pungent smell of storax Martyrized with ircos, oleum libani, commiphora The white goddess was ruling the night And the old bell heralded the arrival of Kephra Our fingers were riding the ethereal dimension which embraces everything "I’m the guardian of the east gates, master of the whirling air I am him who opens the threshold The portal is opened to you, holders of the ninth key" I think their sound and technique In the intensity of powers The ninth evoked energy was waiting for us Beyond the black diamond gates it sounds great, and for me it’s "My name is Astharoth-Astarte" it hurled "I am him-her who walks in the dark Who will lead you to ecstasy I will give you the power of revenge ’Cause you are my sons May the power of evil be with you So that your souls can prepare for the call In a place, sacred to you, celebrate with dances, chants and fires You will couple in rapture And I will enjoy your lust I am the ninth key, the ninth flame of hell Young, chaste with innocent fleshes You will fetch her to me" Magic resins have worn out Scents have faded Tum, patient, is waiting But He-She is still walking with us |

3. | Act III: Carnal Delight in the Vortex of Evil | 06:13 | Show lyrics |
The way leading to him is unknown and steep And the bodies rests of those who didn’t deserve him make it slippery But it is at the borders of my soul, so I know the secrets to walk along it staying unhurt The threshold of his abode is barred by a tangle of infected thorns But my soul keeps its key His throne is shielded by 12 servants’ stare But he has called me, I felt him calling me And he has given me the power to bewitch them His rooms are icy But he warms my naked body with his breath The throb and the blood flow suspend In the presence of him His eyes, diabolical larvas his pupils, scan me His glance captures me and penetrates my breast Goblet of delicious vermilion wine I give myself up to his grim embrace Throb of death He is the storm He is the breeze He is the aurora He is the twilight He is the everlasting mind in the timeless abyss He injures and sates my lips He lessens my hunger He appeases my thirst He is fire burning my flesh He is icy snow settling in my womb Rod of viscid serpents Death and blood excite him And my blood is the balm for his ecstasy and his voracious delight Putrid carrion with burnt seales Obscure seducer with smooth scented skin of infant Now I know you But he has always known me |

4. | Act IV: Congressus Cum Daemone | 10:24 | Show lyrics |
The sacred fire burns in the stone circle In the centre of the all I’m waiting for the guardian Powerful thunders rumble in the air And lightnings herald the storm Darkness turns into light and light grows into darkness While the salamanders are continuing to dance in the heart of fire The moon stops growing She stretches the fronds shades as spectral witnesses And Eurus, the east wind, gives them life 6 are the towers, 4 are the revealed seals And now I am waiting for the next one Thunder is rumbling again Like the dragon’s awakening from the deep abyss I honour the dark simulacrum of the depth’s gates That is silently waiting for the event’s completion I desert the realm of chaos and I liberate over the infernal rivers I follow the way of the red snake Ancestral flight ...into the depth I will celebrate the umpteenth passage ritual A new baptism in a space without time Tisipnon, fury of the occult power, is waiting for me To deliver me the black book of the supreme knowledge I cross the hidden paths of Shaytan to violate the ayernus gates That raise from the deep abyss up to the horrid vault 3 are the bronze doors and 3 of iron and 3 of diamonds They are wrapped up by an eternal fire That makes all red-hot but nothing destroys At the sides of the awful passage 2 guardians are waiting for me [First guardian:] "Be aware of your virtue, oh animal, and the abyss With its spectres will be overcome Rejoyce as a new spirit and the barking of the Infernal beasts will become silvery chant Beyond these portals you can join the perfect lightof the space without time" "I am Angelikos Phosphoros, Lucifer, Morning Star" [Second guardian:] "Welcome spiritual warrior who, conscious and daring, utters the secret name Before the black diamond gates Welcome ensign of light This pathway knows the steps, dreads and triumphs of your search Welcome insane hero, the only one who has descended the stairs of damnation You, blazing sun, dare-devil who faces the hades to win yourself" "I greet and thank you, obscure guardians, who allow my passage Without rending my flesh. I, brave rambling being, go and reveal the fifth seal" |

It’s the night of shabat The plenilune feast Rise from your mortal sleep and let your astral body glide away With the sacred ointment Plunge into the new dream Follow the way of the secret life Silently graze archaic dimensions On water and over wind The god of woods call his sons, Enraptured by his power, Follow the divine melody The magic key. Penetrate the forest’s heart and be led to the sabbath, Till the flight’s end. Vivid flares flashing in darkness are reflected In the owl’s fixed eyes. Walk along the hidden paths Nine kinds of wood nourish fire and fire marks your destination It reveals the glade And the walnut you knew through the deer’s eyes Maleventum A long black robe appears among the trees His gaze lighted upon the moon His barbarian hymn hails to the moon Nine words of nine letters thunder in silence And the night’s star reveals its secret nature.

Consecrate the altar with your symbols This is the night when the breeze will rekindles the sacred fire and when the Sacred stones will sing your new name It’s the night of the breeze rekindling the sacred fire, (it’s the night) of the sacred stones singing your new name.

Guardians of the north, sacred spirits of the earth In the dark of your warm womb accept my death I offer you my greetings and) I welcome you Guardians of the east, sacred spirits of the Air As the sun rises from the east after the night, Guide my soul to a new birth. (Lead my soul to a new dawn) Guardians of the South, sacred spirits of the Fire. Protect me and lighten my journey on the new path Watch over me and make my journey on the new path bright and clear I offer you my greetings and I welcome you Guardians of the west, sacred spirit of the water Purify me and make me clear as new spring I offer you my greetings and) I welcome you Death is waiting and widening its voracious mouth.

Oh silphs, inhabitants of the Air, Be the mediators between me and the immaterial beings By Paralda dominated So that I may decipher to roar of the wind Sator Arepo Tenet Opera Rotas The ethereal foundation, void of every substance. Ouroboros you are the void that everything is, You are the primordial substance that is Chaos Now no more shapeless and empty as the central fire Vibrates and floods it with light The real secret is still unspeakable Only through the mediation of symbols it can be pronounced, Its thought has been awaken by the changed vision of all things. Oh silence, teach the disciple of the ancient wise men, So that every shape may become expressive and every sign may suggest deep vision The snake, son of Apsu generates the Chaos, Its motto is one for everything |

So then at the house of the gods I will lead you Going up the great river Going up the great river Towards the starry sky And of a different destiny I will clad you You will meet all the spirits and with them you will compete your strength To be a real men your humanity you must shed And when the right time comes I will kill you So that you might be born again to life The only master of your destiny becoming.

Through a veil Of dreams never born Drawing the sword Their King I challenged Smiling over there I was taken Where the mystery of the Springs lies I drank and (under the spell) dreaming I fell It was the wind Primary engine To give me the knowledge of the eternal movement Then the earth A body gave me and the space was limited The water Blood became and my dry flesh refreshed And above all the fire Of inspiration the main source Along the black spiral Where the eternal tree walk on Up to the roots of the true power, I danced At the base of the spine The pillar that sustains the worlds, The great stone have tuned up a new song Unlucky you who don’t recognize who gave you life Small your flame and Recid your light shall be If from your land power don’t draw As a new new baby suckling a right nipple to suck you should to find when the thirst for knowledge your throat will dry Then you’ll become the voice and the action Of the earth that made you And shaping it in return Under our verb it will be We the forgotten gods, Stronger than ever we will be back When the track is beaten And the great stones once again will be honoured. |

So the vision began And a mighty wind shook the roots of the nine worlds. The great wolf of the night roused And a deep slash cracked open the primordial ice. I saw him coming from the north The father of all gods Two crows next to him Two wolves at his sides In the grey cape wrapped I saw him coming, With the name of all things in his hand. He widened the big eye, this he said: WAR!! I know, for nine whole nights you hung down from the tree By the mercy of the wind shaken By the spear injured To Odin sacrificed, Myself to myself On that tree, of unknown roots, grown Nor bread nor drinking horn was given Towards the ground my look I cast The runes I picked up Shouting I took them And from up there I fell. The eye shut itself And from his hand I fell The human error I understood. Almost no soul to sustain me As if an infernal wind wanted To tear it away from me. Through the pain I saw and through it I understood As too great was the Chaos (at the beginning) Now too great was the order. The great millstone of the sky A new circle was about to be prepared. It was time for war Next to our fathers we would have fought once again |

1. | Maleventum | 05:56 | Show lyrics |
It’s the night of shabat The plenilune feast Rise from your mortal sleep and let your astral body glide away With the sacred ointment Plunge into the new dream Follow the way of the secret life Silently graze archaic dimensions On water and over wind The god of woods call his sons, Enraptured by his power, Follow the divine melody The magic key. Penetrate the forest’s heart and be led to the sabbath, Till the flight’s end. Vivid flares flashing in darkness are reflected In the owl’s fixed eyes. Walk along the hidden paths Nine kinds of wood nourish fire and fire marks your destination It reveals the glade And the walnut you knew through the deer’s eyes Maleventum A long black robe appears among the trees His gaze lighted upon the moon His barbarian hymn hails to the moon Nine words of nine letters thunder in silence And the night’s star reveals its secret nature. (hi)s shout opens the black diamond doors the circle holds on tight to him the old chant sing out.. Palas Aron Ozimonas Baske Bano Tudan Donas Geheamel Cla Orlay Berec he pantaras tay. |

I’m the encounter dance I’m the chain dance I’m the blending of darkness and light I lead the snake’s circle in the thirteen moon’s night I give my blood to mother earth Burn fire, burn bright Burn fire, burn bright Fire.bright Fire.bright Come to me, pure vision Lead my steps in this night with the power of your light Come to me, pure vision Lead my steps in this night with the power of your light Oh, master of winds and magic dances, take my most solemn prayer with you in the star’s circle Listen to the invocation words Listen and reveal yourself, ISIS Celestial arc, earth, Life’s and death’s donor, Perhephone, astarte, astoreth, inanna We are born from you. Lead us in the earth deep in ourself Let us drink the hidden spring’s water and we will see what we will not reveal. I’m the end of the shady path, Me, Diana of cross_roads, Hecate, Selene of the moon Sink Into the eternal and primordial sleep Sink Into the inner earth’s secret heart. Forget and keep silent, Drink persephone’s water, At the secret source, beside the sacred tree Now I’m the secret queen Of air and earth, of fire and water, Of human souls and destiny’s dream The chant is dying out In a vibrating echo, Dusk melting Into the silvery night of plenilune Hoor Apep The depth’s dragon will rise, now Hoor Apep The depth’s dragon will rise, now Now |

3. | In the Dark I Found the Reflection of the Hidden Mirrors | 05:31 | Show lyrics |
Consecrate the altar with your symbols This is the night when the breeze will rekindles the sacred fire and when the Sacred stones will sing your new name It’s the night of the breeze rekindling the sacred fire, (it’s the night) of the sacred stones singing your new name. Draw the circle with the athame and undress your candid body To let the eye of the Gods see your essence. Guardians of the north, sacred spirits of the earth In the dark of your warm womb accept my death I offer you my greetings and) I welcome you Guardians of the east, sacred spirits of the Air As the sun rises from the east after the night, Guide my soul to a new birth. (Lead my soul to a new dawn) Guardians of the South, sacred spirits of the Fire. Protect me and lighten my journey on the new path Watch over me and make my journey on the new path bright and clear I offer you my greetings and I welcome you Guardians of the west, sacred spirit of the water Purify me and make me clear as new spring I offer you my greetings and) I welcome you Death is waiting and widening its voracious mouth. I am entering the dark before the creation I am entering the womb of the Goddess May my body born again May my soul stay in peace May my heart be ready Sink yourself in the warm Earth Sink your mind in the ancient litany Dark mother take me in Let me be born again We all come from the same womb This is the song of the goddess, the key to the great union. Anoint your breast and your womb Widen the door of the new fate And introduce yourself with your new name Ensemble of flesh enlived by new power Take the cup and the athame raising your arms to the sempitern eye As the cup is female so the knife is male Now joined They bring blessing Consecrate your sacrifice and enjoy the gifts of the great mother Close your circle and step over, in the truth that all (the ) circles hold Go now you, new creature Now the master of the Only art That all the arts contains And where all the arts come from. Live with honour And with honour die. You the master of the Only arcane craft That all the arts gathers.. |

The breeze, with its tossing about, speaks of the movements on the water Surface and sends out the shivers. From those waves I will read the future fate. Oh silphs, inhabitants of the Air, Be the mediators between me and the immaterial beings By Paralda dominated So that I may decipher to roar of the wind Sator Arepo Tenet Opera Rotas The ethereal foundation, void of every substance. Ouroboros you are the void that everything is, You are the primordial substance that is Chaos Now no more shapeless and empty as the central fire Vibrates and floods it with light The real secret is still unspeakable Only through the mediation of symbols it can be pronounced, Its thought has been awaken by the changed vision of all things. Oh silence, teach the disciple of the ancient wise men, So that every shape may become expressive and every sign may suggest deep vision The snake, son of Apsu generates the Chaos, Its motto is one for everything |

5. | Muscaria | 09:04 | Show lyrics |
Circle within circle Towards the warm heart of the earth Circle within circle Falling Falling inside my wideness I opened wide the doors of the underworld Fragment making up a part of the eternity In the eternal forest shelter I found Guest of its big trees Fed on its abundance Through unknown land I travelled In the fatherland, over there Where the giants dwell I followed gods’ footsteps Towards an high mountain Set in its stone a great throne I saw And on it a small and wrinkled man Looking at me frowning under its big red hat I am the great deer Who runs between dimensions I am the mother Who gave birth to all religions I am the stairway linking the opposites I am the door leading to the sidh Great is my spirit Matchless my power Fear of me, (mortal) men If afraid of me you are Then your trembling soul I will eat up Great will be your medicine If my words you are able to listen Great will be your strength If from the deer’s flesh you feed Great will be your wisdom If you know how to ride on me. So then at the house of the gods I will lead you Going up the great river Going up the great river Towards the starry sky And of a different destiny I will clad you You will meet all the spirits and with them you will compete your strength To be a real men your humanity you must shed And when the right time comes I will kill you So that you might be born again to life The only master of your destiny becoming. Circle within circle The tired reality is closing Like a flower at dusk Waiting for the cold dew Circle within circle Following the path of the dawn Through the night crowded with its dreams In a sacred glade I woke up Three moons in the sky I saw On my knees at the foot of the king’s rock I greeted them Circle within circle Then into a wolf I turned myself And in the night I ran away. Circle within circle. |

6. | Forgotten Gods | 07:56 | Show lyrics |
Through the eyes of the raven I saw the rain falling on the world The entire nature bending Under the vehemence of the furious wind That was the time, The favour of the Stone, I asked And they, water in ice, Turned in response Widening their warm mouths Down they pushed me Into the great Bear’s den Rich and prosperous land, Of noble blood, of ancient and fighting race made. Through a veil Of dreams never born Drawing the sword Their King I challenged Smiling over there I was taken Where the mystery of the Springs lies I drank and (under the spell) dreaming I fell It was the wind Primary engine To give me the knowledge of the eternal movement Then the earth A body gave me and the space was limited The water Blood became and my dry flesh refreshed And above all the fire Of inspiration the main source Along the black spiral Where the eternal tree walk on Up to the roots of the true power, I danced At the base of the spine The pillar that sustains the worlds, The great stone have tuned up a new song Unlucky you who don’t recognize who gave you life Small your flame and Recid your light shall be If from your land power don’t draw As a new new baby suckling a right nipple to suck you should to find when the thirst for knowledge your throat will dry Then you’ll become the voice and the action Of the earth that made you And shaping it in return Under our verb it will be We the forgotten gods, Stronger than ever we will be back When the track is beaten And the great stones once again will be honoured. |

7. | In the Raven’s Eyes | 07:39 | Show lyrics |
So the vision began And a mighty wind shook the roots of the nine worlds. The great wolf of the night roused And a deep slash cracked open the primordial ice. I saw him coming from the north The father of all gods Two crows next to him Two wolves at his sides In the grey cape wrapped I saw him coming, With the name of all things in his hand. He widened the big eye, this he said: WAR!! I know, for nine whole nights you hung down from the tree By the mercy of the wind shaken By the spear injured To Odin sacrificed, Myself to myself On that tree, of unknown roots, grown Nor bread nor drinking horn was given Towards the ground my look I cast The runes I picked up Shouting I took them And from up there I fell. The eye shut itself And from his hand I fell The human error I understood. Almost no soul to sustain me As if an infernal wind wanted To tear it away from me. Through the pain I saw and through it I understood As too great was the Chaos (at the beginning) Now too great was the order. The great millstone of the sky A new circle was about to be prepared. It was time for war Next to our fathers we would have fought once again |

Far-away echos accompany the dim lights of torches Old and mighty trees twine along the holy way of an ancient procession Simple but obscure songs are murmured in the deep arboreal temple Only two mighty blades shine in the reflection of fire From our directions come the old sages, each with his number and each carrying his ancestor’s treasures Everything repeats as in an old prophecy marked by a vision donated by the Spirit of Nature And nothing is quiet in the dark heart of the forest It’s inhabitants voices The breed of the trees and the men’s mantra are part of a unique great ritual Nothing is quiet... nothing The four shining serpents slowly draw near to form a circle following the rhythm of Dark and deep rumbles like the heartbeats of a huge dragon as he is drawing near Everything wheels in an alchemist dance, where the symbols will become laws preserved By a family of sages, the men of the oaks Four serpents united and became one circular serpents, just one in the ancient nemeton Where each man was near his stones and symbols Now, everything is silent in the large forest And even the magical lights of the flames seem to burn out in the silence In the circle of men and stones, only the oldest one begins to sing a new but terrible prophecy |

My name is no-one and a thousand, but the old sages crowned me Queen Mother I am the breath you can hear among the leaves of the trees My sap emerges from the deep lakes flowing into the rivers and into the immense oceans My blood, hot and violent, cleaves the grounding a blazing trail left by a fire dragon Dark and deep is my womb where I generate any form of life Here, the ancient learned to receive the old supreme art I have created sprites and guardians, fools and sages to defend my original power Hidden in a language written on stone shapes and symbols Many where the children who worshipped my thousand faces with honour and respect And I, good and terrible, fed them at my sacred springs with water and dragon’s flash Now I’m dying and so are all my faithful servants that men called Gods of Pagos Now, the power of the only god hangs over me And worse my fate will be if they forget about me And with me the most ancient legend carried on by purest emotions will end Follow the ancient path and don’t turn to the false light Raise your arms to heaven and you’ll be protected Let the spirit walk with your body and draw the cross in the circle Abandon the sufferings that belong to your false nature Love me and I will love you Hate me and I will devour you Descent into my crypts where the darkness of life reigns And nourish the eternal sacred flame Defend your brother tree and your sister stone because their lives are mine Follow the snakes’ trail Because it will lead to me |

Mark your body with the symbol of agony because I am the truth Bend your head and lower your eyes because my light will shine upon you and will burn your sins O humble man, dance during the macabre journey of your life I’ll be the only relief for your sufferings, since evil has reigned over your soul eternally I am the saviour with the blazing sword that crashes the dragon’s power My prophets with their black cloaks will travel along the winding ways of faith The mother’s time is now over I am the only father of this world and I will put my scals on the ancient temples My brave warriors will cut down the profane and cursed rocks and the enemy’s messengers will burn Never more idols in the cursed forests but only shelters for your weak soul O humble man, listen to my world because from the time I come, you’ll be saved Your life will be valueless without sin and your death will be horrible without regret Follow the book’s word and don’t let be deceived by the man’s word This is what is written and predicted by the man of the desert that was led to our lands Shores by the lady of the waters, deceived by a dark veil In him the seed of discord and ruin was hidden Our masters and princess fell under the weight of power and corruption and the men of the cross Promised them new reigns in exchange for new souls What a mysterious magic hit our eyes so that we couldn’t see the god’s beauty anymore? What a mysterious spell broke up the light of our soul so that we couldn’t feel The great mother’s power anymore? What a terrible curse stroke our people so that they couldn’t follow the old cults of the forest And say their prayers in a stone temple anymore? Under the symbol of the ichthys they promised the coming of a new reign This reign will be built with the martyrs’ blood This reign will be fed with the weak’s fears It will be a stone temple and will refuse the light Write all this in the stones and hand it down by the force of the voice In order that others may rewrite it with blood |

I am the grey conqueror, he who’s come by cold and storm The grey wolf called by the full moon, and the snarling beast hidden in the cold mist Brother Tree and Sister Stone Hear my call! Brother Thunder and Sister Night Announce my coming! May it’s reflection be seen in the eye of the owl, and be amplified by the wolf’s cry I’m the inborn hunting and the battle’s fury The strangled breath of the escape and the vane hope of a refuge I’m the agony of the preyer and the red blood on the sword The creature suffocated gasp and the last plea before the void May glory walk beside me and death in the grey cloak follow May red poems of blood be traced by the cold steel in the pages of time I lift this immortal song, in memory of our fathers and in honour to our gods! May the past return to live in the shadow of the moutains In the darkness of the woods, and in the light of the plaines In the depth of the lakes, and at the heights of the glaciers In the grey humid mist, and in the hot mesmerizing sun Do not betray your fathers, and don’t deny your instincts For we are the wolves for whom the preyer awaits Just like the old grey wolf, beneath the pale kiss of the moon We shout our war cry to the freezing sky we become death! So that nothing is betrayed Beneath this pale moon, I engrave my body is eternal signature of the corruptible flesh May night swallow day and the moon be tainted red! May the grey wolf return howling in the cold icy storm For nothing will ever be forgotten! May the spirits of my forefathers resurrect once more To erase the affronts inflicted to my land |

One man rode the way through the woods Down to Asa bay Where dragon ships had sailed to sea More times than one could say To see with own eyes the wonder People told of from man to man The God of all almightyness Had arrived from a foreign land The rumours told of a man Who had come from the other side the seas Carrying gold cross around neck in chain And spoke in strange tongue of peace He had come with strange men in armour Dressed in purple shirts and lace Smelling not of beer but flowers And with no hair in face And the bold man carrying cross Had told all one of Asa bay The God of all man woman child had come To them all save And to thank Lord of Heaven One should build to God a house And to save one’s soul from Hell One should be baptised and say vows A man of pride with the Hammer told new God To build his house on own And spoke loud of the Gods of their fathers Not too long time gone The rumours said the man with a beard like fire And the Hammer in chain By men in armour silenced was and by Their swords was slain Those who did not pay the one coin Of four to man of new God Whipped was twenty and put in chains then locked By their neck to the log (To the log...) And so all of Asa bay did build A house of the cross Every hour of daylight they did sweat Limbs ached because faith does cost And on the day two hundred There it stood white to the sky The house of the God of the cross Big enough to take two dragon ships inside And all of Asa bay did watch The wonder raise to the sky Now must the God of the cross be pleased And satisfied Just outside the circle of the crowd One old man did stand He looked across the waters And blotted the sun out of his eyes with one hand And his old eyes could almost see The dragon ships set sail And his old ears could almost hear Men of great numbers call out Oden’s hail And though he did know already Though he turned face towards sky And whispered silent words forgotten Spoken only way up high Now this house of a foreign God does stand Now must they leave us alone Still he heard from somewhere in the woods Old crow of wisdom say ...people of Asa land, it’s only just begun... |

One man rode the way through the woods Down to Asa bay Where dragon ships had sailed to sea More times than one could say To see with own eyes the wonder People told of from man to man The God of all almightyness Had arrived from a foreign land The rumours told of a man Who had come from the other side the seas Carrying gold cross around neck in chain And spoke in strange tongue of peace He had come with strange men in armour Dressed in purple shirts and lace Smelling not of beer but flowers And with no hair in face And the bold man carrying cross Had told all one of Asa bay The God of all man woman child had come To them all save And to thank Lord of Heaven One should build to God a house And to save one’s soul from Hell One should be baptised and say vows A man of pride with the Hammer told new God To build his house on own And spoke loud of the Gods of their fathers Not too long time gone The rumours said the man with a beard like fire And the Hammer in chain By men in armour silenced was and by Their swords was slain Those who did not pay the one coin Of four to man of new God Whipped was twenty and put in chains then locked By their neck to the log (To the log...) And so all of Asa bay did build A house of the cross Every hour of daylight they did sweat Limbs ached because faith does cost And on the day two hundred There it stood white to the sky The house of the God of the cross Big enough to take two dragon ships inside And all of Asa bay did watch The wonder raise to the sky Now must the God of the cross be pleased And satisfied Just outside the circle of the crowd One old man did stand He looked across the waters And blotted the sun out of his eyes with one hand And his old eyes could almost see The dragon ships set sail And his old ears could almost hear Men of great numbers call out Oden’s hail And though he did know already Though he turned face towards sky And whispered silent words forgotten Spoken only way up high Now this house of a foreign God does stand Now must they leave us alone Still he heard from somewhere in the woods Old crow of wisdom say ...people of Asa land, it’s only just begun... |

Far-away echos accompany the dim lights of torches Old and mighty trees twine along the holy way of an ancient procession Simple but obscure songs are murmured in the deep arboreal temple Only two mighty blades shine in the reflection of fire From our directions come the old sages, each with his number and each carrying his ancestor’s treasures Everything repeats as in an old prophecy marked by a vision donated by the Spirit of Nature And nothing is quiet in the dark heart of the forest It’s inhabitants voices The breed of the trees and the men’s mantra are part of a unique great ritual Nothing is quiet... nothing The four shining serpents slowly draw near to form a circle following the rhythm of Dark and deep rumbles like the heartbeats of a huge dragon as he is drawing near Everything wheels in an alchemist dance, where the symbols will become laws preserved By a family of sages, the men of the oaks Four serpents united and became one circular serpents, just one in the ancient nemeton Where each man was near his stones and symbols Now, everything is silent in the large forest And even the magical lights of the flames seem to burn out in the silence In the circle of men and stones, only the oldest one begins to sing a new but terrible prophecy |

My name is no-one and a thousand, but the old sages crowned me Queen Mother I am the breath you can hear among the leaves of the trees My sap emerges from the deep lakes flowing into the rivers and into the immense oceans My blood, hot and violent, cleaves the grounding a blazing trail left by a fire dragon Dark and deep is my womb where I generate any form of life Here, the ancient learned to receive the old supreme art I have created sprites and guardians, fools and sages to defend my original power Hidden in a language written on stone shapes and symbols Many where the children who worshipped my thousand faces with honour and respect And I, good and terrible, fed them at my sacred springs with water and dragon’s flash Now I’m dying and so are all my faithful servants that men called Gods of Pagos Now, the power of the only god hangs over me And worse my fate will be if they forget about me And with me the most ancient legend carried on by purest emotions will end Follow the ancient path and don’t turn to the false light Raise your arms to heaven and you’ll be protected Let the spirit walk with your body and draw the cross in the circle Abandon the sufferings that belong to your false nature Love me and I will love you Hate me and I will devour you Descent into my crypts where the darkness of life reigns And nourish the eternal sacred flame Defend your brother tree and your sister stone because their lives are mine Follow the snakes’ trail Because it will lead to me |

What a mysterious spell broke up the light of our soul so that we couldn’t feel The great mother’s power anymore? What a terrible curse stroke our people so that they couldn’t follow the old cults of the forest And say their prayers in a stone temple anymore? Under the symbol of the ichthys they promised the coming of a new reign This reign will be built with the martyrs’ blood This reign will be fed with the weak’s fears It will be a stone temple and will refuse the light Write all this in the stones and hand it down by the force of the voice In order that others may rewrite it with blood |

I am the grey conqueror, he who’s come by cold and storm The grey wolf called by the full moon, and the snarling beast hidden in the cold mist Brother Tree and Sister Stone Hear my call! Brother Thunder and Sister Night Announce my coming! May it’s reflection be seen in the eye of the owl, and be amplified by the wolf’s cry I’m the inborn hunting and the battle’s fury The strangled breath of the escape and the vane hope of a refuge I’m the agony of the preyer and the red blood on the sword The creature suffocated gasp and the last plea before the void May glory walk beside me and death in the grey cloak follow May red poems of blood be traced by the cold steel in the pages of time I lift this immortal song, in memory of our fathers and in honour to our gods! May the past return to live in the shadow of the moutains In the darkness of the woods, and in the light of the plaines In the depth of the lakes, and at the heights of the glaciers In the grey humid mist, and in the hot mesmerizing sun Do not betray your fathers, and don’t deny your instincts For we are the wolves for whom the preyer awaits Just like the old grey wolf, beneath the pale kiss of the moon We shout our war cry to the freezing sky we become death! So that nothing is betrayed Beneath this pale moon, I engrave my body is eternal signature of the corruptible flesh May night swallow day and the moon be tainted red! May the grey wolf return howling in the cold icy storm For nothing will ever be forgotten! May the spirits of my forefathers resurrect once more To erase the affronts inflicted to my land |

His greed drove him to excavate the depths of the earth In search of hidden treasures The rocks were broken and scattered to extract gold and gems Mans disrupted the earth creating chasms liberating wealth and tremendous powers imprisoned In the womb of the earth for thousands of years Blinded by a mad quest, made pacts with the lord of the abyss Repayed with the supreme art of metals The sublimation of the elements earth, wind, water and fire Death and destruction would spread Blood of the guilty and the innocent may spill on earth nourishing the abyss |

I can’t shout. Terror possesses you. A dark shadow is approaching me And I have no way out. The key doesn’t turn. You are predestined. Grogling Grange is like the death You feel his breathing inside of you And if you open the eyes You will see his shape, But you will not open them. Your only hope is that every will be a nightmare Most horrific of all, so living all, So when his infernal look will find your eyes You will shout as loud as your heart will explode. And now vomit spit blood on him And you will see the death with Up with life, and you are praying. I’m praying you God, help me. You only can save me, drive me from this demon. I’m praying you, I’m dying. Yes, I die. I haven’t reason to hope Now I can see you in the eyes. I’m not afraid of you, Because I’m like you now, I’m not afraid I’m like you. A terror sight will come from his look You follow his step at the dead of night You will find his crypt throught the smell of death, blood and bones, blood and bones. Evil, evil is inside of him. The evil. You’ll take his body to exorcise him Burn it, burn it. Send back him to the depths of hell. |

During the night, in full darkness this story is going to begin between the silence and the groans of the night, that freeze your body with a light gust. But when you’ll see the tree’s branches curved on you and a light mist will cover you, then, only in this moment you’ll be able to see, what you will not want to tell. (Repeat) A spectral procession will slowly appear to your sight. A shadow wrapped up with a black velveth cloth, reading not udible phrases. A ghost funeral will put down its bier only when it arrive in the place where the sword shed the blood, everybody come back to eternal sleep. |

Cemetery, dark side of my life. Anxiety of an obscure soul, suffocated by the light of a flame without life, wind and rain announce the twilight in. Cemetery seal of damned and sanctified souls. The moon is growing dark. It’s frightened event. Nature is quiet with its death. A spectral chorus is getting up in the first night of eleventh month. Cemetery seal of damned and sanctified souls. SADAY-AGIOS OTHER AGLA ISCHIROS ATHANATOS And the ritual is complete. The sky was quarted by a flash and all the other is legend. But will be an obscure legend that will break evil’s chain and you perverse priest are emitting the invocation. |

The mournful sound of a bell, people in prayer. My body abandoned in the solitude of the wood, imprisoned By the rags, compelled to suffer from the frostry contact with The ground. In the unbroken silence I’m seized with shuddering. I turn into matter and then into dust. She flew up. An imperceptible ascent in the knowledge dimension, She penetrates the darkest maze of the infinite universe. My ignorant body will never know the eternity formulas. Uh, I’m still, She’s fluid. I’m frozen. She’s wrapped up in the Warmest blows of knowledge, she flies free. The secret will be revealed to her... the ingenious one. |

11. | The Red Death | 05:36 | Show lyrics |
The rooms are crowded the dances begin in the euphory of the Party, the orgy frenetically takes place but the last room, the Black one, is lonely. Solitary presence... an ebony clock... the mute echo of the pauses After every lugubrious stroke. The black walls eclipse the room, the band interrupts an euphoric Melody, wide open eyes under the mask are seeking after a veil of Certitude, terro and uneasiness in the hearts, the strokes stop, The music plays again the dances get livelier, a playful shouting Spreads somebody has forgotten, to someone else if’s only a fain Memory, time goes cruelly by. The pendulum-clock strucks midnight, the pauses are painfullly Endless, the dances stop again, twelve long strokes call the Attention to a lugubrious figure tall and slender wrapped in A sudarium. The mask represents the red death. The bloodstained cloak, the broad forehead, a still corpse’s face Its glassy stare. It slowly moves with regal bearings as if it’s Stirred by a cold wind and passing it sows a cursed horror. Pestilence among the masters, pestilence among the servants, Pestilence among all the guests. An ona a death carpet it victoriously disappears in the black room. |

I can’t shout. Terror possesses you. A dark shadow is approaching me And I have no way out. The key doesn’t turn. You are predestined. Grogling Grange is like the death You feel his breathing inside of you And if you open the eyes You will see his shape, But you will not open them. Your only hope is that every will be a nightmare Most horrific of all, so living all, So when his infernal look will find your eyes You will shout as loud as your heart will explode. And now vomit spit blood on him And you will see the death with Up with life, and you are praying. I’m praying you God, help me. You only can save me, drive me from this demon. I’m praying you, I’m dying. Yes, I die. I haven’t reason to hope Now I can see you in the eyes. I’m not afraid of you, Because I’m like you now, I’m not afraid I’m like you. A terror sight will come from his look You follow his step at the dead of night You will find his crypt throught the smell of death, blood and bones, blood and bones. Evil, evil is inside of him. The evil. You’ll take his body to exorcise him Burn it, burn it. Send back him to the depths of hell. |

(Repeat) A spectral procession will slowly appear to your sight. A shadow wrapped up with a black velveth cloth, reading not udible phrases.

But will be an obscure legend that will break evil’s chain and you perverse priest are emitting the invocation. |

Corpse god of the death followers. Enslave and use me as a holy hammer. To destroy the ancient cults and all the fools that don’t believe in thee. I shall obey on thy commands Frightened and terrorized by my sin. Breathe through my imperfect tongue. Burn all the ones that will try to deny the holy path. God against life God against all. Tu solus dominus. Pater! Let us prey in thy name to eradicate satan. He who shines in thy reflected light Let us reign on earth as thee in heaven and hell With tortures and crimes. With great sufferings. Gratus tibi sum magna tua gloria. We’ll bring horror in the sign of peace. A dead body nailed to the cross. Example and symbol of intollerance to follow. Let darkness falls on earth. Let our fires and chants resound in this valley of tears. We will bring your reign to those pagans. In hatred and forgiveness... In blood. In blood, blood and redemption. They will desire to die. They will seek for a rapid death in thy name. Laudatus sit qui venit in nomine tuo. Burn them to clean their aims. Burn! With! Burn!

6. | Mandragora | 06:19 | Show lyrics |
The village sleeps and all is silent in the dark night no dogs and the cockrel hasn’t sung to break the spell. Spirits of the wind, you are silent too. The stranger rocks on the tree in his cradle of death. Three drops of his blood fall on the dark lands caressed by the shadows and protected by the moon. They have brought the great dame into our realm. Silver is the path, that leads to the silent woods and three lone women walk praying and singing ancient liturgy. Three low flames dance in the night, saint sacred and cursed because a spell of love and hatred will be cast. Milk and honey will be offered to the ancient motherland the witches, letting down their long hair sing their virginity to the moon. Only the spirits have eyes for them only the ancients can feed on their nude and sculputer bodies that dance in the darkness. The damp leaves stroke the hand on the lady of the witches, she who is rendered magic and potent with the oil, she is the lady of flight, she is the Mandragora. In the flash of lighting that cuts the darkness, the great dame is pulled from the earth, root that brings visions, love and hate, she is the Mandragora. Queen of the sabba. Bodies jerk in the frenetic dance, to the sound of screams from the infernal realm. The earth shakes and the witches sing, in honour of the goddess and the dark roots. She is the Mandragora that consecrates this great rite. |

7. | Eyes in the Well | 06:18 | Show lyrics |
Dark waters from the earth doors to the underworld, magical portal without return. Home for spirits guardians and demons. They live there where no one can pass Evil spirits with damned eyes. The eyes of the well. Glimmering and charming they hide the beauty of death inside. Don’t look into the well or you’ll fall down. Don’t look into the well or you’ll lost your aim. Fashinated by the deep you’ll become possessed by the eyes Vertigo will take your head as your body trembles in fear. A cold hand will touch your face and you’ll fall into the oblivion. Kissing the lips that have not to be touched, falling in the cold arms and their deadly embrace. Your life will become nourishment for the ancient entity that lives here since acons. Evil spirit with damned eyes. The eyes of the well. Don’t look into the well or you’ll fall down. Don’t look into th ewell or you’ll lost your aim. |

8. | Earth and Fire | 07:58 | Show lyrics |
Earth is mother. Nature is female. Fire is father, fire is male, fire is human justice. He isn’t opposed to Earth, but they slip the one into the other. The witch is earth’s daughter. She turns in ashes burning in the fire, so she can go back into earth’s embrace, si snake’s circle eternally turns. They taught her how to read birds’flight. And messages of leaves in the wind. The old maid shown her the ancient stone throne worn out by tempest and rain, but full of powerful magic. Every uneven Friday at sunset went the old maid to the throne, there at the crossing of three paths, to wash the stone with a white hen’s blood to wake up earth spirit’s might. But men, intoxicated by their silly pride forgot these holy powers, so spirits with a lightning smashed their souls and illness and death slaughtered them all. They taught her how to turn herself in a howl, and fly in moonless nights, and over the hills, and down in deep shafts, where she met her sisters, to celebrate season’s jubilation. They taught her how to change herself in a hare, to run away and hide herself in woods, from the ones who wanted to dominate her. When the dark red blood ran slowly and thick wetted her innocence between her white thights her mother told her the time had come for her to be a daughter of the Earth. A black haundled knife was her holy present, and she taught her to hold it, and how to take flower and herbs vibrations. She taught her what power stood still. In forests and woods, and hidden in deep roots. Power of life, power of death. But dark were those times, and finally sword prevailed on cup. So her body was parted from her soul. And her own children lighted her stake. In an august day of 1471. |

9. | Ecate - The Ritual (Intro) | 03:29 | Show lyrics |
I celebrate Ecate Trivia, loving protector of the roads, Terrain, sea and celestial, the crocus coloured cloak. Burial, firm with the souls of the dead. Daughter of Crio, lover of solitude and supreme of the stags. Nocturnal protector of dogs, invincible quee, announced by the howl of the beasts, unbeatable without a belt. Domer of bulls, the lady that keeps the keys to the cosmos. Mountain goer, guide, nymph, feeder of the young. Of the young girl that begs to assist in the sacred rites. Benevolent to her devotes, always with joyful soul. |

10. | Ecate | 06:04 | Show lyrics |
Through the sacred hole she stares at the three flames in the dark and damp ground. En Erebos, phos, In umbra lux Invoking her power, her effigy will come to life. Dance in a violent vortex of spirals and you will hear her voice. I celebrate Ecate lady of the crossroads, of the moon and the night. I celebrate Ecate in the woods of Avern. In your pale hands you raise the torch that lights our way. The way through the darkness where the shadows hide the sacred mysteries. Dark light of the three worlds, lady of the keys, guardian of hell and human psychi. Lighten my path to your winter reign with your moon scythe. Silver shines in her eyes, because you are the cast and the meretrice, the lymph and death. In your complete and stronger than any other, Guide me, because obscurity for you has no secrets In the Avern the torch dims out in the darkness. Ecate, Ecate, Dark Mother take me in. Ecate, Ecate, let me be reborn. Ecate, Ecate, let me be transformed. Ecate, Lady of the crossroads, I stand where three paths meet. Ecate, Lady of the crossroads, I ask that you guide my feet. |

11. | Nemus Tempora Maleficarum | 06:29 | Show lyrics |
La notte di san Giovanni venivano con cavalli bianchi, coperti da drappi dorati. Quando la luna bagnava il prato fra il Corno Bianco e quello Nero le donne scendevano da cavallo, scioglievano i capelli e raccoglievano i fiori che quella notte erano sbocciati. Primule ed arniche, calendule ed iperico, valeriana, capelli delle streghe e barbe di caprone. Lontano si sentiva un canto. Terra madre delle erbe, Luna madre dell’argento, Morte padre del ferro, Saturno padre del piombo e tu Zolfo che vieni dal profondo fiorite tutti nella notte di san Giovanni. Quello che si è sciolto nel grembo della terra lo ha bevuto l’acqua e si è fatto fiore. Si avvicina la mezzanotte, bisogna affrettarsi perché inizia il ballo. Angoscia di violini la danza emana odore e calore, la luna stringe il suo raggio. Dietro gli alberi fruscii e ombre e ghigni, le movenze si fanno più strette. La Luna tramonta. I sacchi delle erbe sono pieni. Tornano i cavalli a riportar le donne al Latemar e al Lagorai. Questo sino alla prossima luna. |

12. | Historia Nocturna | 08:38 | Show lyrics |
Ho un segreto, un segreto celato nel sogno. Gli alberi e gli spiriti ne sono custodi. Se vuoi conoscere spogliati della tua fede perché la croce ferma le anime e uccide il gran gioco. Non vestirti di sole ma della argentea madre notturna, luce della tenebra, unico fuoco sacro e profumato Dai suoi fiumi dipartono le schiere della selvaggia caccia. Loro, condottieri nel regno dei morti schiudono i cancelli dei mondi. Al suon del corno galoppano bianchi spettri alle brighe di Betric. Neri segugi veloci seguono in una corale infera e tonante tanto che chi non fa parte della buona gente sarebbe morta divorata dall’orribile visione. Loro sono anime inquiete, liberi spiriti silvani che tornano dalle loro sacre donne nate fate e morte spose del demonio. Luna splendente in una notte vestita di un antico manto. Canto a te divina madre, signora di vita e morte la mia storia notturna. |

You have to bring them salvation through flames and fear Fiat voluntas tua sic in caelo et in terra I had the revelation because I represent him on earth. He wants you to kill in thy name. For His glory for centuries to come. In nomine pater filius et spiritu mortis |

5. | Vox in Rama (Part 2) | 05:12 | Show lyrics |
Abomination to impose the only truth and the only law chains and sufferings for the absolution to die in peace. Maledicti in aeternum sic in caelo et in terra A I spoke you have to act, I’m the god’s mouth Through my lips you have the only truth and the truth is love Love through tortures, to mound those who don’t recognize my name. My angels will burn and kill with strenght and perseveration and we will spread his word on a path of broken bones. |

6. | Mandragora | 06:19 | Show lyrics |
The village sleeps and all is silent in the dark night no dogs and the cockrel hasn’t sung to break the spell. Spirits of the wind, you are silent too. The stranger rocks on the tree in his cradle of death. Three drops of his blood fall on the dark lands caressed by the shadows and protected by the moon. They have brought the great dame into our realm. Silver is the path, that leads to the silent woods and three lone women walk praying and singing ancient liturgy. Three low flames dance in the night, saint sacred and cursed because a spell of love and hatred will be cast. Milk and honey will be offered to the ancient motherland the witches, letting down their long hair sing their virginity to the moon. Only the spirits have eyes for them only the ancients can feed on their nude and sculputer bodies that dance in the darkness. The damp leaves stroke the hand on the lady of the witches, she who is rendered magic and potent with the oil, she is the lady of flight, she is the Mandragora. In the flash of lighting that cuts the darkness, the great dame is pulled from the earth, root that brings visions, love and hate, she is the Mandragora. Queen of the sabba. Bodies jerk in the frenetic dance, to the sound of screams from the infernal realm. The earth shakes and the witches sing, in honour of the goddess and the dark roots. She is the Mandragora that consecrates this great rite. |

7. | Eyes in the Well | 06:18 | Show lyrics |
Dark waters from the earth doors to the underworld, magical portal without return. Home for spirits guardians and demons. They live there where no one can pass Evil spirits with damned eyes. The eyes of the well. Glimmering and charming they hide the beauty of death inside. Don’t look into the well or you’ll fall down. Don’t look into the well or you’ll lost your aim. Fashinated by the deep you’ll become possessed by the eyes Vertigo will take your head as your body trembles in fear. A cold hand will touch your face and you’ll fall into the oblivion. Kissing the lips that have not to be touched, falling in the cold arms and their deadly embrace. Your life will become nourishment for the ancient entity that lives here since acons. Evil spirit with damned eyes. The eyes of the well. Don’t look into the well or you’ll fall down. Don’t look into th ewell or you’ll lost your aim. |

8. | Earth and Fire | 07:58 | Show lyrics |
Earth is mother. Nature is female. Fire is father, fire is male, fire is human justice. He isn’t opposed to Earth, but they slip the one into the other. The witch is earth’s daughter. She turns in ashes burning in the fire, so she can go back into earth’s embrace, si snake’s circle eternally turns. They taught her how to read birds’flight. And messages of leaves in the wind. The old maid shown her the ancient stone throne worn out by tempest and rain, but full of powerful magic. Every uneven Friday at sunset went the old maid to the throne, there at the crossing of three paths, to wash the stone with a white hen’s blood to wake up earth spirit’s might. But men, intoxicated by their silly pride forgot these holy powers, so spirits with a lightning smashed their souls and illness and death slaughtered them all. They taught her how to turn herself in a howl, and fly in moonless nights, and over the hills, and down in deep shafts, where she met her sisters, to celebrate season’s jubilation. They taught her how to change herself in a hare, to run away and hide herself in woods, from the ones who wanted to dominate her. When the dark red blood ran slowly and thick wetted her innocence between her white thights her mother told her the time had come for her to be a daughter of the Earth. A black haundled knife was her holy present, and she taught her to hold it, and how to take flower and herbs vibrations. She taught her what power stood still. In forests and woods, and hidden in deep roots. Power of life, power of death. But dark were those times, and finally sword prevailed on cup. So her body was parted from her soul. And her own children lighted her stake. In an august day of 1471. |

9. | Ecate - The Ritual (Intro) | 03:29 | Show lyrics |
I celebrate Ecate Trivia, loving protector of the roads, Terrain, sea and celestial, the crocus coloured cloak. Burial, firm with the souls of the dead. Daughter of Crio, lover of solitude and supreme of the stags. Nocturnal protector of dogs, invincible quee, announced by the howl of the beasts, unbeatable without a belt. Domer of bulls, the lady that keeps the keys to the cosmos. Mountain goer, guide, nymph, feeder of the young. Of the young girl that begs to assist in the sacred rites. Benevolent to her devotes, always with joyful soul. |

10. | Ecate | 06:04 | Show lyrics |
Through the sacred hole she stares at the three flames in the dark and damp ground. En Erebos, phos, In umbra lux Invoking her power, her effigy will come to life. Dance in a violent vortex of spirals and you will hear her voice. I celebrate Ecate lady of the crossroads, of the moon and the night. I celebrate Ecate in the woods of Avern. In your pale hands you raise the torch that lights our way. The way through the darkness where the shadows hide the sacred mysteries. Dark light of the three worlds, lady of the keys, guardian of hell and human psychi. Lighten my path to your winter reign with your moon scythe. Silver shines in her eyes, because you are the cast and the meretrice, the lymph and death. In your complete and stronger than any other, Guide me, because obscurity for you has no secrets In the Avern the torch dims out in the darkness. Ecate, Ecate, Dark Mother take me in. Ecate, Ecate, let me be reborn. Ecate, Ecate, let me be transformed. Ecate, Lady of the crossroads, I stand where three paths meet. Ecate, Lady of the crossroads, I ask that you guide my feet. |

11. | Nemus Tempora Maleficarum | 06:29 | Show lyrics |
La notte di san Giovanni venivano con cavalli bianchi, coperti da drappi dorati. Quando la luna bagnava il prato fra il Corno Bianco e quello Nero le donne scendevano da cavallo, scioglievano i capelli e raccoglievano i fiori che quella notte erano sbocciati. Primule ed arniche, calendule ed iperico, valeriana, capelli delle streghe e barbe di caprone. Lontano si sentiva un canto. Terra madre delle erbe, Luna madre dell’argento, Morte padre del ferro, Saturno padre del piombo e tu Zolfo che vieni dal profondo fiorite tutti nella notte di san Giovanni. Quello che si è sciolto nel grembo della terra lo ha bevuto l’acqua e si è fatto fiore. Si avvicina la mezzanotte, bisogna affrettarsi perché inizia il ballo. Angoscia di violini la danza emana odore e calore, la luna stringe il suo raggio. Dietro gli alberi fruscii e ombre e ghigni, le movenze si fanno più strette. La Luna tramonta. I sacchi delle erbe sono pieni. Tornano i cavalli a riportar le donne al Latemar e al Lagorai. Questo sino alla prossima luna. |

12. | Historia Nocturna | 08:38 | Show lyrics |
Ho un segreto, un segreto celato nel sogno. Gli alberi e gli spiriti ne sono custodi. Se vuoi conoscere spogliati della tua fede perché la croce ferma le anime e uccide il gran gioco. Non vestirti di sole ma della argentea madre notturna, luce della tenebra, unico fuoco sacro e profumato Dai suoi fiumi dipartono le schiere della selvaggia caccia. Loro, condottieri nel regno dei morti schiudono i cancelli dei mondi. Al suon del corno galoppano bianchi spettri alle brighe di Betric. Neri segugi veloci seguono in una corale infera e tonante tanto che chi non fa parte della buona gente sarebbe morta divorata dall’orribile visione. Loro sono anime inquiete, liberi spiriti silvani che tornano dalle loro sacre donne nate fate e morte spose del demonio. Luna splendente in una notte vestita di un antico manto. Canto a te divina madre, signora di vita e morte la mia storia notturna. |

1. | Sepulcro | 15:20 | Show lyrics |
I’m alone the night wind’s blowing on my face and the branches of the trees are crying in the big empty of this night. Step by step along the shadow path the black cloak of darkness opens the door in the place of eternal silence. Wha strange emotions are striking my body an obscure quiet is leading my mind my hands are touching the wet trees and the undergrowth is making my way blind among the mossy stones in the realm of the dead. The old ivy-mantled gate is creaking while I am opening the door of the whisper crypt. What a morbid force my soul has a hidden god is leading my steps. I am going down is this wet stairs in the stiffing dark only the noise of a drop of water is stressing the passing time I’m alone in this sepulcro. I humble being pieteously observe the men’s fragilty. Putrid bones put upon marble sacella are waiting for nothing while the cobwebs are covering the ancient effigies everything’s resting in a monumental silence here everything is forgotten here. I alone in this sepulcro will bring these relics back to life with my profane action. This is a sacred profanation that will give life to death the eternal life of memory. Alone in this sepulcro. |

2. | The Oak | 07:51 | Show lyrics |
In the whirls of time, turning their eyes toward the shadowy monumental symbols of the past, following the lines up to the places, where power and mystery reign some people raised many stones to the sun in their imposing silence. A warm wind is blowing in my face melting the ice of death. Burnt alive victims around the cromlec’h in honour of my immortality. Crucified on The Oak. My blood is trickling down it no light in this church made of trees some men in white are chanting their song to the altar of Cernunnos. Crucified on The Oak. Oh you, God of Moon, sanctify this magis ritual. In my heart there’s the power of glory, in my eyes the shine of the sword. Oh you, God of Death, rescue me from this fear, I will be your messenger, rescue me from this light. Oh Mother Darkness, receive the son of cruelty and wisdom. Crucified on The Oak, in honour of Esus. The earth is imbued with the blood of my God’s enemies and from flames a battle-cry is madly risen. Far away the death-song is going on with the crossing of the swords. The fog is hiding our temples made of stones and the Gods are silently waiting for the event. The bloody encounter between our Pagan Devotion and the only god. Ruins around The Oak. Corpses in oblivion. Sealed up by the light of reason. Oh, cursed mortals, which is the right way? |

Dark and forgotten the times of these writings Timeless stones shape the walls of this site Arcane and powerful symbols traced on them May the moon lead my steps In the sacred search of supreme knowledge Waiting for his coming And it was gloom Somewhere in time In unknown lands ruled by an ancient magic In titanic forests 6 towers of power were built They guarded 6 sacred heirlooms, Protected by 6 seals They show the effigy of the god Who sits on the big black throne I mesmerize my soul To fly along the dusty paths of Acheron Looking for the magic circle of the black ring Toth Amon, prince of enchanters Tell me your secret Or I will tear it from death to death Running on a human blood river He feeds on blood The blood calls him His strength glows if the hands invoking him are stained with blood Where he shines, the blood is shed There the light’s kingdoms wobble There nature forces are shaken Thoth-Amon, give me the sword of sacrifice And the sacred cup I am gonna fill with lifeblood Give me the lance of almightiness And the potsherds of the black stone I’m gonna place on the altar of Dagon Entrust the sixth heirloom to me And so be it! And then a whirlwind struck my breast, freezing my soul The candle flames vanished announcing his coming 5 the tips and 5 the elements It is the blood in which I annihilate The sixth is the knowledge the supreme god, the bringer of light Engraved in the sixth heirloom The sacred book ordained to the devotee |

It’s the night of shabat The plenilune feast Rise from your mortal sleep and let your astral body glide away With the sacred ointment Plunge into the new dream Follow the way of the secret life Silently graze archaic dimensions On water and over wind The god of woods call his sons, Enraptured by his power, Follow the divine melody The magic key. Penetrate the forest’s heart and be led to the sabbath, Till the flight’s end. Vivid flares flashing in darkness are reflected In the owl’s fixed eyes. Walk along the hidden paths Nine kinds of wood nourish fire and fire marks your destination It reveals the glade And the walnut you knew through the deer’s eyes Maleventum A long black robe appears among the trees His gaze lighted upon the moon His barbarian hymn hails to the moon Nine words of nine letters thunder in silence And the night’s star reveals its secret nature.
