Sisters, The fateful Moment is Truly imminent We'll open gates of timeless fear Forked tongues of our fires grow And lick a sky undone – Preluding the evenfall when we’ll drag down and lacerate the great abhorrer… Sun See the smoke draw specters And warm streams of blood mesmerize demons Three moons fasten on you their all-seeing eye You are irrevocably ours to live or to die We have witnessed an exile of Chaos from earth And we’ll see its triumphal return Scattering corpse powder over these waters we unleash the tempest Tear dimensions, find them, bring their hearts to the Mother Snake's altar In this great hour of the night I summon thee Darkest overwhelming force Come obey our will With the wind I send a spell Profaning these shores Oh, rise from your slumber Give heed to our word! And shaking ground beneath their feet Has frozen and hold its breath Together with the immolated whose ever whispering lips will never be sealed with a kiss of death Soon a burning offing will be the only touch of light And everything else swallowed by the night See the smoke draw specters And warm streams of blood mesmerize demons Three moons fasten on you their all-seeing eye You are irrevocably ours to live or to die

Dressed in a sable shroud She walks with her head bowed Humble, quiet yet horrifying Night on the funereal way Wherever she appears and wherever she reveals herself there fade sources of light, of hope, of life on earth Flame, my stigmas, so everyone can see One cut across the three moons All will bleed with me Too deep to heal for eternity Stabbed by you and so I’ll always be Beneath the weight of a senseless vow Bleeding milliads with you I go down And from that accursed sphere She comes down and draws near to flood into my inner maim As unstoppable black flows There’s nowhere I can hide They still will pervade my mind Creatures or phantoms, leave Me be or emerge from the dark Flame, my stigmas, so everyone can see One cut across the three moons All will bleed with me Too deep to heal for eternity Stabbed by you and so I’ll always be Beneath the weight of a senseless vow Bleeding milliads with you I go down

Longing to see what no human ever longed to see Is dementing… But your eyes are seized by mortal blindness I hear your cry Through the noise of mankind The truth which you thirst for Can’t be conceived by your mind When you are all alone at night Light a black candle, stand on the threshold and say the rhyme The sublunary scenes fade away into the dark Urging you to choose a strange gateway to the gloomiest of all impossible worlds I know you Will find the way And appear – scared and forlorn – In my realm That has no bounds In the world That has no form Ecce, Spiritum Humanum! Stretch out your hand, enter the veil, the quest is over Arrows of light may bring death but they will never reach us Deny instincts Escape from their confines Trust nothing but my voice and follow the burning signs When you are all alone at night Light a black candle, stand on the threshold and say the rhyme The sublunary scenes fade away into the dark Urging you to choose a strange gateway to the gloomiest of all worlds Now you have… …Now you have seen The face of… …real face of mine And wherefore… …And wherefore your Soul must be… …Must be enshrined

I Out from her lair we stepped into the light Deep forest was in our sight Glades seemed avulsed wounds on the firmament With bonelike branches a quiet moon was pent «Take heed, for no one’s able to dissolve the slumbrous mists these lands evolve However, I have powers to define a shape of the fiercest sister of mine» «Don’t trust silence of the forest Don’t yield to softness of this grass Save yourself while you can» II Ominous fog rose from marshes and crowned Tops of ash trees that towered around Down at their roots lurked countless ghostly maids In semblance of insentient pale shades And there I met her glorious and decayed Her clawed hands around my throat were laid Vehemence sparked in her electrum eyes Then she soared up with me into the skies Chorus We’ll fly through the fog Reviving an ancient rite Higher and higher Till this world is out of sight The witch spread her wings to the moon In the triumph of might unsung And she soared in a supreme swoon Till her limbs with the light were one «Don’t trust silence of the forest Don’t yield to softness of this grass Save… but it is too late» ”I want to be inside of you… To feel what it’s like to lose purity and forfeit sanity Fear us not because we lead you to the edge and push you off it, but because We’re the depth swallowing you up without a trace...” III Not only my flesh but my soul was numb with dread too strong to overcome «However beautiful this thrilling flight, Your fall will soon epilogize the night» Chorus We’ll fly through the fog Reviving an ancient rite Higher and higher Till this world is out of sight IV But no salvation brought that dire fall Since something caught me for new thrall «And as a fragile grave rose lay your head On my breast - coldest than a marble bed» Chorus We’ll fly through the fog Reviving an ancient rite Higher and higher Till this world is out of sight Drown yourself in the obscure deep Let another story cross your sleep

I Lost in the haze of infinity Far from where once before I succumbed To praise his name in the radiancy of the crimson pyres Destroyed is The corporeal frame Washed away Is my dust with the rain And yet I Shall walk the earth again For I am agonizing but can’t die Chorus Abide a thousand lives - You’ll slaughtered be again Forsake the blind belief and then broken will be this chain II And eternal silence sings to sleep Effaces odium and vehemence While unweaving my doomed consciousness slowly thread by thread, so I embrace the grief with dead passion Saving it is my last obsession Yes I want These wounds to be resurrected with splinters of oblivion Turn now to him Behold his true face Do not withdraw the eyes and he won't hold your gaze Chorus Abide a thousand lives - You’ll slaughtered be again Forsake the blind belief and then broken will be this chain III Lost in the haze of infinity Where obscureness alone was my guide My optophobic dreams now have come To the very end, thus Nevermore will my blood fill his fount What was lost Will not ever be found I perceive He does not have power And therefore he cannot abolish me While entrusting yourself to the whispering abyss You’ll depart from the world of dying shades Turn now to him Behold his true face Do not withdraw the eyes and he won’t hold your gaze «And when barely discernible vestiges of his spirit faded away, I winced, and when I winced, I found myself dreaming within another dream and desperation moved onto me as if I’ve penetrated into the heart of darkness».

I As I glide with Them through visions and spaces… Wake from your sleep at once Arise from the semi dead!... …It becomes so hard to find my old traces… …Down there you’re in danger Inhale and open your eyes! Those who know do not speak Those who speak do not know Don’t hide your scorn Glory to the lone Don’t conceal your scorn Glory to the mass Shame to the lone Chorus: You can transform into a storm and tear the world down You can transshape You can escape Just leave behind Their morbid mind Beware! Defences fall in the blink of an eye There is a chink in your armor, my instinct cannot lie II Execrate my name Strip me to the skin… Speak and you will be heard Still left without answers at all… …Cast a stone at me To engrave this sin …For theirs are the symbols And always yours are the words Those who know do not speak Those who speak do not know Here is your home The place where you belong May this dark be my home til I find the place Where I belong «The human being shall be separated from the vale of tears, Sublime yet sequacious …To walk the shining worlds that levitate above the black surface of times May that epiphany dispel all the ephemeral things» Chorus So long I have been waiting here within the circle of chalk Now let this plague stalk It is time for me To break myself free Nothing left to say Get out of my way Don’t stand in my way

I Fleeing from the place that once was called home desperately I raise my head to the dome of the sky fouled with lurid moonlight A lunar disk glints for an instant white Down the dark dell they can’t foresee The secrete forest stands waiting for me Sylvatic shades invoke me again Enthralled by a promise of impending rain Foliage shelters me and finally I cloister myself in the twilight cathedral On this ground I wrote your name so many times That I forgot my own Come to me, come to me, come to me You are the gate, I am the key Chorus Beware of him who entered your heart For he envenomed your soul, inebriated your mind He is the enemy and must be Exiled II I enter an unseen circle once more Сraving to feel you like never before Swayed by a soft and soundless breeze Whispering herbs evoke impious memories And when rain drops conflow with my tears In front of me a black vision appears Darkness casts her veil over us…. Chorus Invade my flesh and dwell in me Every touch is a wound I long for The weeping firmament pours its waters into Our ever thirsting mouths And we sink in the darkness In the blazing sea where you drain my inhale dry Although deliriously I try to hold you close You evanesce and through my fingers slip Then take my heart - I rip it now for you - a bleeding rose But still locked is a garden of eternal sleep
8.
The same night awaits everyone And yet you shall not follow their fate Beware pestilent streams of a withering Day star May the dark secrete you in her vast embrace lest they find you For those marked with a sigil of the moonbreed Must disappear

I And now I can’t trace any moons in the sky keeping a vow of silence evermore No the new, or the full, or even the half one You left me! You left me? How could you be so fell?! Alas, numbing dread seized me It’s obviously that now I’m lone in the misery There’s only a black pole that filled with orphaned stars Their shatters hurt so deep Abruptly their voices invaded my frail mind Then unseen and grim, the Arms dragged me to the night Fen fires or spirits, Guide me now where they dwell The only place to cease This absolute hell Chorus Burning, melting just like candles images of pale angels Waxen tears cascading down their disfigured faces Wreathing, growing thick as fog taking many grotesque shapes, smoke engulfs the deathbed kingly with its fatal embrace II Across these ancient whispering halls An incarnadine path lies It’ll lead me from this world To the great archaos, thereat my tired heart Will desperately outflame Nemo ante mortem beatus Chorus Burning, melting just like candles images of pale angels Waxen tears cascading down their disfigured faces Wreathing, growing thick as fog taking many grotesque shapes, smoke engulfs the deathbed kingly with its fatal embrace Eram quod es, eris quod sum Consummatum est! Oh coldly fulgent luminaries I summon your deadly fire into me This is my body which I sacrifice for you Chorus There is only one way out: Come unlock the blazing door It waits for you behind like A flame waits for a moth Let it burn down Let it all burn Scattering the gloom with the light Now I can see Everything that Has been out of my sight
