An Apsara (Sanskrit: अप्सराः apsarāḥ, plural अप्सरसः apsarasaḥ, stem apsaras-, a feminine consonant stem, អប្សរា), also known as Vidhya Dhari or Tep Apsar (ទេពអប្សរ) in Khmer, Accharā (Pāli) or A Bố Sa La Tư (Vietnamese), Bidadari (Indonesian & Malay), Biraddali (Tausug), Hapsari or Widodari (Javanese) and Apson (Thai: อัปสร), is a female spirit of the clouds and waters in Hindu and Buddhist mythology. English translations of the word "Apsara" include "nymph," "celestial nymph," and "celestial maiden."
Apsaras are beautiful, supernatural female beings. They are youthful and elegant, and superb in the art of dancing. They are often the wives of the Gandharvas, the court musicians of Indra. They dance to the music made by the Gandharvas, usually in the palaces of the gods, entertain and sometimes seduce gods and men. As caretakers of fallen heroes, they may be compared to the valkyries of Norse mythology. As ethereal beings who inhabit the skies, and are often depicted taking flight, or at service of a god, they may be compared to angels.

When Sivaji was being pursued, he left the sword with his close friend, Hyder Ali Gohri, who hid it in a secret location. Since their passing, no one knows where Chandrahas is hidden.

Colors became so strange
Our silhouettes painted in black
Our minds so bright and clear
We open our eyes when daylight fades away
We are voyagers in the night
On this trip we make no stay
Avoid the light - until darkness do us unite!
Banish the sun, smash the mask you had to wear
in this untruthful masquerade
Black blood boils inside our veins
Day is night, night is day
We are the few ones who do not fear the dark
We are thieves stalking through the park
Infinite are the ways of the ones
who break the rules in this world full of crap
Eternal is the lust
of the masters of darkness, mistresses in black
And when death comes slipping
we hide in the shadows of the upcoming clouds
When life's heartbeat's quitting
Together we stand under the moonlight's bane
Come with me, hold me tight
Zeig mir den Weg in die Ewigkeit
Until darkness do us unite
Eine Ode an die Dunkelheit
And now close your eyes
Auf der Flucht vor dem Ende der Zeit
Verfolgt von Geistern der Unendlichkeit
Im Innern gebrochen, die Seele zerteilt
Blutendes Herz, doch die Wunde verheilt
Wenn Furcht versiegt, die Fassade zerbricht,
schauen wir auf, erblicken das Licht
"Siehst du das Licht?"
"Suche nicht nur nach der dunklen, kalten Seele,
When the sun at the horizon dies away
and the loneliness awakes
the whole world in its hour of death
I walk the stony path again.
Now I am my own leader
I wretch my life from you
Free from your herd, which follows blind and tries to devour me.
Guided by spirit
In my endless empire
Crawling into infinity
In this endless night
The way is my destination
away from you god of slaves
My sharpened instinct guides me
through this abyss of endless pain.
Only I can pronounce myself guilty, my judge - this is me
I've cutted the strings you hold out of my skin.
Entering the spheres of soul, discovering all secrets you may find
Feeling the despise of this deaf and blind mankind
Irrational created structures procced to hide
[Instrumental]
"We all are just moments dissolving in the dust
and we all shall be prepared for the time before the dawn..."
Creations of sickness, insane crowd of fools
Lack of conscience, defiled at heart
Emptiness and madness - unborn child will die
Hopelessness and sadness - humankind's decay
And when the wind blows stronger than before
And rain swamps the saving shore
We fall asleep for the last time since we've been born
A final breath before the dawn
Dominant leaders absorbing human minds,
Terrified failures are made to obey blind
Lifelessness and badness - in the eyes of death
Coldness let me perceive my breath
I look around but norhing is here
Nothing but extensive blackfields
A threatened atmosphere lies over the land
where am I?
I awake in forgotten worlds
In which I walked in every dream
And I walk through silent fields
There is no hope - there is no fear
I only hear the ground grating under me
I run - but where? There - a light
I see the angel of death is saving me
But I know I will never come back
Pain - all I feel is burning pain
I raise from the clear snowy ground
Slowly the dense fog is dissolving
Reeling I see a vast scenery of ice
and snow
All I see is dark
Dead landscapes
Befrosted paths
This cold ominous place seems timeless
The icy winds are carrying howling screams
There's no daylight - only moon shines on the surface
My pale body is sinking back into the snow
And all I see is dark
Dead landscapes
Befrosted paths
I see no light
Captured in this fields of death
Alone in snowy mountain glens
Grey threatening clouds cover the sky
Above my head the ravens fly
Captured in this fields of death
Alone in snowy mountain glens
There's no way out of this gloomy land
My life seems coming to its end...
The spirits will guide me
To eternal life and might
To the kingdom of fire
To my yearned salvation
And I raise my hands
Like burning wings
I will leave this world
I will fly
We who never feared the moonlight
We who never fled from the rain
All the dying on this earth
All this pain since the birth
I see - they are creeping
They are dying
I feel their fear, the deadlight in their eyes
They are drowning in the angel's tears
Do you feel the eternal fire?
Let it burn, let it burn higher
All the dying on this earth
Let they die in your fire
The great inferno is coming
The end of mortality is near
All the dying on this earth
All this pain since the birth
I see - they are weeping
They are dying
Faces - speaking of decay
After times of desolation
Frozen minds will melt
Our buried souls are rising
The deep fall of heaven
Fallen angels are with me
Their shadows darken the sky
Storms are coming
We will enter a new chapter of time
Beyond damnation of soul
We have left our mortal bodies
We will go everywhere
The prophecy of their tongues
The announcement of their words
Break away from their embrace
Follow you, follow not them
Follow the way of your mind and soul
Threatened by their believe
Manipulated by their lies
Stop their longing to enslave
I left everything behind
I created my own kingdom
I am the force from below
Follow you and follow not them
Break away from their embrace
Follow the way of your mind and soul
Stop their longing to enslace
Unhallowed Reflections
leading me through the night
Their hateful rejection
Turning night into day, day into night
Drifting in floods, no bottom beneath
Sinister the waves arround extend
Shatter on black rocks of neverland
Initiating the fusion of sun and moon
Snow falls in summer, dry rain on my skin
Sinister the waves arround extend
Shatter on black rocks of neverland
Strange are the times
When shadows haunt my mind
Total Soul Eclipse
I've lost myself again... and again...
Confusing emotions inside my head

All we see, when barriers fade away: yet unseen territory
Every night she dreams the same
Haunted by a shadow again and again
Captured and lost in a giant mace
There is no way to flee
She begs not to fall asleep
And she prays to god to set her free
She is so afraid to see
The shadow she fears is me
You think you're living
I know you're dead
I am the madman in your head
Did you not know
You don't live twice
I am the secret behind your eyes
Do you wanna hold on crying
for the rest of your life?
Everyday seems to be the same
Quitting this life stops the dying
There is nothing left to win
After endless nightmares she lies weeping in her bed
A blade in her hand, her nightdress is turning red
Her skin becomes paler in this cold and stormy night
When days begin to breathe shorter
and the unbending frost creeps through the woods
When primitive strength seems to be perfect
then you can hear the silence
We are all surrounded by them
They are day and night, life and death
They are the sovereigns of our presence
Awake, awake with new power
When the songs of birds are fading away
And the previously pleasures of mankind
Oh when all these are lying down to rest
The the silence begins to live
All whispers in the wind
from the ghosts of silence
Into the pristine woods they lure
frightened is the mind but clear
Don't deny their existence
because staying silent let they upraise
The ghosts of silence
The treasure of life is so hard to find
Scores of decades filled with grief
Hear the elegies of humankind
Years of pain, an exhausting decease
Crawling in filth and contamination
Earth's entity a poetry
written with words of deepest grey
Drowning in tears caused by soul's desperation
Life means death means charity
in this world of depravity
Nature's virginity has been taken
The storm blows us away
A ruined world we leave behind
All life will soon decay
The incessant fall of mankind
This is judgement day
After our last breathe on earth
In floods we'll fade away
Now we'll die the hardest death,
now we will surrender,
suffer for our sins,
bleed for our deeds,
There's no difference between night and day
Without sun or moon I move
The only candles that enlight my way
Are the blazing flames of you
You are the flames of the everlasting fire
You are the wings, the wings that take me higher
You are the fire, you are the light
You are the key to my salvation
The final day of this sorrow inside
This is the way to my last destination
All insanity that led me astray
My deepest darkest thoughts came true
The only hope that enlights my way
The infinite ways of my universe
It took me time to interpret the
Signs, symbols and signs, the meaning of the
Stars will guide me through the depth's of live
Until the end I will follow the
Signs, symbols and signs, evolving my mind
Millions of paths to my universe
have to be passed by choosing the
Signs, symbols and signs, the meaning of the
Ways I have chosen to exist my live
Until death I am guided by the
Signs, symbols and signs, evolving my mind
"On my spiritual journey during thousand of years
I have passed the darkest ages.
Centuries ruled by sick minds, the withering of humankind.
But sometimes I saw the shimmer of salvation.
I have seen both - the beauty and the cruelty, the darkness...
As I wander through the night
In shelter of the nocturnal sphere
Full moon shines on my pale skin
Surrounded by the Immortal's screams
Virgin of the night
Under your spell I crawl
Craving for liberation
Longing for eternal darkness
Shine on me, star of the damned
And light my path to find my inner self
Beyond the mortal existence
My body - dead, my soul - alive
Voices of the night
They will guide my way
Through this mystic atmosphere
I feel the spirit of immortality
"And he went to the mountain of dead souls
where he could rest and find new strength
where he could die in peace
die in peace apart the world of fools
He raised his head up to the sky
the cold wind caresses his face
and he thought about the time
when freedom ruled this world..."
Oh great beloved mother
They took your grace away
They snatch away your heart
Slowly they drown your life's light
I tried to keep them away from you
I tried to defend your kingdom
I tried to fight against their vanity
A smell of sepsis poisons my entity
For all time we are damned at this place
Distressed childrenfaces shimmer through the spinney
They stare apathetic at centuries gone
Black fog creeps over decaying ground
Eternal night falls from firmament with all grace
Every step into these woods a deeper step into me
This is the real and acting fantasy
We roamed across valleys, through shadow an light
a lifelong quest
True cognition rests on eternity
We who opposed their god to discover our soul
a corroding quest
True cognition rests on eternity
Hunted of those to weak to withstand the awakening
a mental desire quest
True cognition rests on eternity
We had the key to us in our burning hearts
an entity quest
True cognition rests on eternity
Now we stand here at the glades of life
Eras of mankind passing by
The ocean of clouds tears raging apart
The starlight shines at us
They reveal us the unseen secrets
We try to catch the stars
