1. Nomen Omen
I am the bearer of evil, lurking among your fears
Laughing at your compassions, failure human beings
Summoned by ancient rituals to annihilate your peace of mind
I'll scorn your superstitions, lore of a vulgar mass...
Hear and listen the knell, rising at your last day
I'm waiting in eternal patience to take you down, cold, to the grave
You cannot run from me, you cannot fight or hide
I reign in your belief, I grow beneath your eyes
You'll die all, you'll die!
You'll die all, you'll die!
Exciter of old frustrations, I hide behind the light
Cursing the optimism born from your preacher's lies
You cannot perceive the meaning of most of these enlightening words
Keep praying in the shade of the cross until it takes the form of the horns
You'll die all, you'll die!
You'll die all, alone!
"The thunders of wrath doth slumber in the North,
in the likeness of an oak whose branches are dung-filled
nests of lamentation and weeping laid
up for the Earth, which burn night and day
and vomit out the heads of
scorpions and live sulphur mingled with poison.
These be the thunders that in an instant roar
with a hundred mighty earthquakes
and a thousand as many surges,
which rest not,
nor know any time here.
One rock bringeth forth a thousand,
even as heart of man doth his thoughts.
Woe! Woe! Yes! Woe be to the Earth,
for her inquity is, was, and shall be great."
2. Strange Rites Of Evil
The night is crawling faster
Devouring the latest lights
Enshrouding and suppressing
The breaths of all feeble lives
Disciples of desecrations
Will meet in the appointed place
Evokers of mournful torments
With the power of the Spell
Devoted to strange rite...
The celebrant in front of the altar
Repeating hypnotic words
The audience stands in silence
And sits at his command
An old woman is singing shrilly
The hymns for request
Devoting her soul and body
To the Master of Hell
Devoted to strange rite...
3. Cemetery
I've been in the cemetery
Tonight alone with my mind
Red lights all over the dungeons
Reflect the spirits of the dead
Let the Spirits rise
And the calling forth will take its place tonight
Cemetery...
Walking around the tombstones
Red caretakers of the respect
Reveal the way through forgotten paths
Of marble slabs and votive lamps
I see the faces of the deceased
My spirit now is flying to them
To their past lives and lost existence
And to the story of humanity
Let the Spirits rise
And the calling forth will take its place tonight
Cemetery...
4. Child Of Darkness
оригинал: Bedemon
Come with me my Child of Darkness
Come with me into the night
Let me show you this land of enchantment
Let me be your guiding light
This world is dead, it's broken its back
But I can show you what must be done
It all lies now within your soul, girl
Use your mind and it will come
My Child of Darkness has given her gift
Of love and lust and burning desire
She lies now while the wind blows gently
Carrying her charms, set the night on fire
5. Radix Malorum
Ire and fire raising up the graves
Keepers of the Mark of Death
High conjurators, preachers of The Spell
Reinassance of Raven's Cult evoked from the past
Dirges at the Funeral bell
Dirges at the Funeral bell
Radix Malorum, Radix Malorum
No defence from your Damnation
Disgrace won't come in vain
The skeptic man regrets his dullness
Revealing loss of faith
His soul's devoured now by Violet vermin
Nibbling light away
Ire and fire... Hail the eternal pain!
Dirges at the Funeral bell
Dirges at the Funeral bell
Radix Malorum, Radix Malorum
6. Dressed In Black Cloaks
Twelve silent figures move in the dark
Their path will lead them fast to the violet lounge
The Horned God's fierce emblem stands above them all
Adorned with faded flowers, stained in rotten blood
Attracting Evil, the Thirteenth Link
Obscene chants are feasting
The Goat and the Grim
Orgiastic screaming and desecration hymns
Young naked adherents opens the coffin lid
The chosen one approaches the corpse lying cold in stink
Reveals her lustful desire licking festering skin
Attracting Evil, the Thirteenth Link
Obscene chants are feasting
The Goat and the Grim
