Drawn towards these lands again Seeking death and sacred soil I ride the longing winds of my blackened soul Growing stronger once I enter my empire beyond Emperium Behold my coming The fullmoon ride above me Enlightening my realm in a silvery glow Yet the shadows crawl beneath my storming sky Guarding treasures from forbidden light I still remember Though ages ago, it seems The first time I entered the gates The revelation of ritual death By which I became divine Sacrifice of the life I had among the flesh of the light And now I enter again Even stronger, yet amazed by what I see In ecstasy, I mock the world Ye entrancemperium Ye entrancemperium Ye entrancemperium Ye entrancemperium Suddenly I memorize Asking what I left behind Nothing Can I ever comprehend? Will my longing never end? Never! Drawn towards these lands again Seeking death and sacred soil I ride the longing winds of my blackened soul Eternally

In Wintry Haze V. In wintry haze The freezing tree Looms bare and high, In silence raise Your dream to him As you go by. His rms are spread - More often fling Him thanks that he When all is sad And cold and dim Can hope for spring. Kahl reckt der baum Im winterdunst Sein frierend leben · Lass deinen traum Auf stiller reise Vor ihm sich heben! Er dehnt die arme – Bedenk ihn oft Mit dieser gunst Dass er im harme Dass er im eise Noch frühling hofft!

Flittermice of Eld Unveiled at the plenilune Fordone by Mournful rest now seeking to be fed again Rising terrestrial power umbraged by celestial light That Shineth Forth from the palace of god - the palace of no return Flittermice of Eld they peer into the morrows, They peer the yesteryears as thoose are coming back. Beholding the son recrucified, beholding gods race browbeaten, Beholding the Devastation of all morals built by them. Flittermice of Eld they fly to blaspheme yehova And to build their Temple (of the) Damned on once holy pleasure ground A Fare to Raise the Flag (of Satan), to desseminate the races, To build the Hall of Battle and to live in Eternal Strife Flittermice came forth from the land beyond the forest Multifarious Winged Black Creatures slew the angels (up so) high. Devastation, Blasphemy, Desecration, Unholy He Who Burned the face of god with the Eye of Our Master

Letzte Wache Wie dunkel sind deine Scläfen, Und deine Hände so schwer. Bist du schon weit von dannen, Und hörst mich nicht mehr. Unter dem flackenden Lichte Bist du so traurig und alt, Und deine Lippen sind grausam In ewiger Starre gekrallt. Morgen schon ist hier das Schweigen Und vielleicht in der Luft Noch das Rascheln von Kränzen Und ein verwesender Duft Aber die Nächte werden Leerer nun, Jahr um Jahr. Hier wo dein Haupt lag, und leise Immer dein Atem war. Last Watch How dark are your temples And how heavy your hands. Far now you have traveled Where my words do not sound. Under the flame that wavers So sad and old you lie, Your lips clenched forever In bitter fixity Tomorrow will come a silence And the air hold a faint Rustle still perhaps of garlands And a decaying scent. But hollower now year by year Will nights be left Here where your heal lay and always You breathed so soft.
