The apostrophe ( ’ although often rendered as ' ) is a punctuation mark, and sometimes a diacritic mark, in languages that use the Latin alphabet or certain other alphabets. In English, it serves three purposes:
According to the Oxford English Dictionary (OED), the word comes ultimately from Greek ἡ ἀπόστροφος [προσῳδία] (hē apóstrophos [prosōidía], "[the accent of] 'turning away', or elision"), through Latin and French.
The apostrophe usually looks the same as a closing single quotation mark, although they have different meanings. The apostrophe also looks similar to the prime symbol ( ′ ), which is used to indicate measurement in feet or arcminutes, as well as for various mathematical purposes, and the ʻokina ( ʻ ), which represents a glottal stop in Polynesian languages.
The apostrophe was introduced into English in the 16th century in imitation of French practice.
Introduced by Geoffroy Tory (1530), the apostrophe was used in place of a vowel letter to indicate elision (as in l'heure in place of la heure). It was frequently used in place of letter e when no actual vowel sound was elided (as in un' heure). Modern French orthography has restored the spelling une heure.
Tiago Iorc (pronounced ee-ork - born November 28, 1985) is a Brazilian musician, singer-songwriter and recording artist. In 2007, his debut acoustic single "Nothing But a Song" reached a nation-wide audience after being featured on a popular Brazilian soap opera. The attention toward his voice and music got him his first record deal and led to the release of his debut album Let Yourself In in 2008.
In 2009, Let Yourself In was released in Japan by JVC Records and "Nothing But a Song" peaked at number 11 on Billboard's Japan HOT 100 Chart. In early 2010, his album was also released in the Philippines by Universal Records and later in South Korea by Kang&Music - where his song "Fine" gained notoriety after being featured on a popular South Korean drama series. This led to a brief promotional Tour in Seoul where the public granted him a Best Foreign Artist Award for his performance at the 2010 Grand Mint Festival.
His second studio album Umbilical was released October 2011, and had New York-based Andy Chase as producer.
Daniel Lopes (born 12 November 1976) was a contestant on the first season of Deutschland sucht den Superstar. Lopes was born in Brazil and adopted by his German stepfather. During the show, he dated fellow contestant Juliette Schoppmann. They have since broken up.
Lopes was eliminated on 11 January 2003, and ended 7th on the show. After his elimination, he was signed to a label. His album For You was released in February 2003, while the competition was still going on. Because of this, he was apparently dropped from the tour. Lopes released 2 singles off of For You: "Shine On" and "I Love You More Than Yesterday". "Shine On" reached #14 in the German charts in March 2003. He has released two other singles including "Last Christmas/I Used To Cry" (which came out in late 2003) and "Change The World" (released in 2005).
Bob Dylan ( /ˈdɪlən/), born Robert Allen Zimmerman on May 24, 1941, is an American singer-songwriter, musician and artist. He has been an influential figure in popular music and culture for five decades. Much of his most celebrated work dates from the 1960s when he was an informal chronicler and a seemingly reluctant figurehead of social unrest. A number of Dylan's early songs, such as "Blowin' in the Wind" and "The Times They Are a-Changin'", became anthems for the US civil rights and anti-war movements. Leaving his initial base in the culture of folk music behind, Dylan's six-minute single "Like a Rolling Stone" has been described as radically altering the parameters of popular music in 1965. However, his recordings employing electric instruments attracted denunciation and criticism from others in the folk movement.
Dylan's lyrics incorporated a variety of political, social, philosophical, and literary influences. They defied existing pop music conventions and appealed hugely to the then burgeoning counterculture. Initially inspired by the songs of Woody Guthrie,Robert Johnson, and Hank Williams, as well as the music and performance styles of Buddy Holly and Little Richard, Dylan has both amplified and personalized musical genres. His recording career, spanning fifty years, has explored numerous distinct traditions in American song—from folk, blues and country to gospel, rock and roll, and rockabilly to English, Scottish, and Irish folk music, embracing even jazz and swing.
Join us into hresholds of moonless light
Xekonaphim paints your worshipped wheel of flames
Incendere Magi Hortus Rosarum
Black roses, laced with silver,
are now the ashes of Heximeth
The sten stars of Assiah wonders
why the meadows are torched
The holocaust of Atu brings down the pyre of Chokmah
Chokmah fills lust into the virgin stream (silent waters)
A Heximethian spirit looks below the edge of a cliff
...and watches the thieves of serpents
(worm of the eight-fold-star)
Join us into tresholds of moonless light
Xekonaphim paints your worshipped wheel of flames
Incedere Magi Hortus Rosarum
The sun of Tipareth's circle arouses the warlock and seed
Sephiroth plants your heart to grow his oak of VITRIOL
Sepher Yetzirah is the deepest root of Atu
the sun of Tiphareth's circle dances until it falls
Tiphareth!
Your lordship is the sixth sword
that triumphs teh jagged blade
Strike it downward to a rusty point
...and burn the earth as roses burn in the meadow
"Come forth, o serpent, and take your fill of poison"
I am above you and I am inside you
My fierce eroticism is in yours
"For he is ever a sun,
and for he is the winged secret flame"
I am the snake that kissed Gehenna's own worm
I giveth knowledge and delight to the ones
Black roses, laced with silver, are now the ashes of Heximeth
"Any who live alone, long only for mercy,
the mercy of truth is among your traits of bloodlust and vein.
You have not, in all this time, returned to the lowland
of your ancestors. Your feet follow a hoof-beaten,
dirt track down the side of a small, grass-covered knoll.
It is near the round hillfort that your cavaliers call the dun.
The ways of the arcane are more difficult hillfort that words can tell.
You are in complete isolation from this mortal exibition, as others will be,
in due time. Each day at dawn, you speak to yourself and give your
thoughts complete utterance. For there are none surviving now,
to whom you would freely speak with, so impart your heart's desire."
"You, the oppressor, will need to learn to chain your mind,
to wait for the proper time to speak. Nevertheless, you shall be executed
from the creed, under the sigil of the blade, then the number.
In an instant, the feeble and the foreigners lie North from here.
In an instant, a magician, shadowlord, and tyrant raised their powers
above your head. You are separated from your kin, by far distance,
of Time and Tide. You will remember your comrades well,
as they replenish your memory with an immortal essence of everlastingness.
And though you will only see shades of what once was,
you will hear their songs and music forever."
"As golden lamplight escapes from the bleeding skies, winsome peat
smoke scents a chilled breeze that enfolds the imperious settlement,
gathering sounds, and lifts the brave into the night. You shall recall
the winter zephyr, as those were the winds that passed eternity."
The Emperor continued to breathe deep and harshly. His lungs sounded
a death rattle, as they were quickly filling with blood and various fluids,
Before his death and dissolution, the Emperor sluggishly uttered,
"I have granted intelligence towards the crown unto thee.
If you teach him well....."
Here and now, we shall take you within The Third Storm Of Cythraul.
It's only just begun...
Early morning, mankind sleeps
there´s a roaring in the air
inpenetrable fog
Thunder rolls and lightning strikes
hell storms, rush over the earth
but there´s no rain
Hell storms, rush over the earth
Bestial Invasion
Fog cleared up, people scream
they won´t believe that the evil takes control
Hell storms, rush over the earth
Bestial Invasion
Your time is out, obsession spreads
death rules, satans law is in command
Jesus Christ exists no longer
You better pray to the new lord
[Cairn Warrior in Advocated Manner:]
Stones of power
Stillness of her spawn
Gems of symbols

She cries the quiet lake
Weeping waters
Taciturnity
Found
She cries the quiet lake
Dripping ruptures
Immortality
Bound
Enduring: death is mine to keep
Timelessness: unborn in timely shape
Balancing: between stone and sky
Promulgate: lamentations
Continually: she wails and she whines
Nonetheless: linking stone to sky
Leveling: the tarns to the tides
Circulate: limpid-forming tears
[Tea's Diktat:]
"The darkness is starting and control is done:
The cosmic light is fading, as the shadow's won."
[Chorus - Cairn Warrior in Encouraged Mode:]
It's the lake of your liquid, glass heart
It's bringing your writ; it's bringing you tears
It's filling your thirst and never with fears
It's the tears of my liquid, glass heart
We are three high kings in honor.
We are the midst of Dagda's spell -
We are three armored forces, and
We are the gold-torqued leaders.
Three wild horsemen:
Three fearless in combat -
Three gold-crowned conjurers of clash, yet
Three clannish chiefs from the Kingdom of Midhe...
The leading, foremost tyrant -
The subsequent tormentor, and
The past intimidator of Cythr¡ul
Are impending.
"Has there ever been a better idol than Dagda?
Will there ever be a better icon than myself?"
"In the yes of myself, I fervently speak."
The trio goes out at dawn.
Fiercely, we plan to fight our assailants:
Three of us versus three thousand: complete.
"In the eyes of myself, I adroitly scream!"
"WE WILL ARRIVE AT THE STONE OF DESTINY." (Tara)
"WE WILL REACH THE PERDITION OF IBID." (Cythr¡ul)
INVINCIBLE: we are to their spears!
INTREPIDLY: we occupy our posts!
A FORECAST OF DESTINY!
INVISIBLE: they are to their hands!
INSOLENTLY: they amuse their own pride!
INTERCHANGEABILITY: INNERCHANGEABILITY!
"With the sway of myself, weather means disaster.
I affirm each day for the men of the brave."
[Repeat Verse]
As our swords of steel, their mead, and courage are fused.
Is it not the throne for our Master of the Gulch?
On its trim are rings of pearls, polished.
One seat remains near the jaded citadel.
[First Supposition - Narration:]
"The plains of adoration do lie somewhere below Tara, way below Tara, as a matter of fact.
Sometimes give as Moyslaught and as always, Crom Cruach is welcomed."
"With the sway of myself, weather means disaster.
I affirm each day for the men of the brave."
[Final Supposition - Narration:]
"The notorious Klan stands by the ramparts at Tara where all enemies are approaching.
Being bound by a geis, the three have no choice but to stand against the feeble units.
Enveloping in an opaque mist, they suddenly find themselves in a magical place where they are
received by the deity Manann¡n and a courtly witch. Finally, they begin to walk up the steep
grassland of Tara, with wand and sword, which enables them to distinguish the truth from the lies."
It is the chair for our Master of the Tor.
It is embellished with bullion: marked.
It remains on top of the lofty mound.
It streams gray and silver lining.
It will be an accolade given to us.

A silk veil strewn over you
Your face is the cosmos
You hide it in shame
The lord of fates enthralled

Your daughter, your weapon
You want to be the cosmos!
No shame, no limits
Mother of Ninlil acts

Sin is conceived in the monarchy of death
The dynasty persists: the lunar god comes

An empty void will always enlarge itself
It stretches from the nether waters inside

Ushum-Gal allots the beasts to the chantry
Eridu!
Erech!
The waters twist and turn
The malign sprite dances
The natural fiend strikes
The bottom of the sea
How deep the engulfment sleeps?
And the chasm, how deep?
How deep the engrossment haunts?
And the gulch, how deep?
The bedlam is always wide awake
And the chaos alive
Between The Absu of Eridu:
It will call the temples
The bedlam is always wide awake
And the chaos alive
Between The Absu of Erech:
It will call the mountains
The bedlam is always wide awake
And the chaos alive
Between The Absu of Eridu:
It will call the temples
The bedlam is always wide awake
And the chaos alive
Between The Absu of Erech:
It will call the mountains
An empty void will always enlarge itself
It stretches from the nether waters inside
As the chaos lives again: vapors condense
A barbaric land where the sword is the law,
and killing is the way of life.
An infernal wasteland and down a barren plain;
A warrior stands the test of fate.
His face is cracked from the wicked hands of time,
and scars from war have past,
Taking the reins from a shadowy steed,
I shall kill the foyus at it's layer!
Morbid Scream!
Skulls and bones lie relics in the sand;
Remembrance of men that came before.
The ground is scorched from the dragon's breath,
and corpses burned to stench and ash.
I awake in fury when the dragon attacks;
Advancing in anger - spitting fire.
Our barbarous laws, my thundering axe,
The detestable xul
Is chained to Ninnigal
Acknowledge the prayers
Subsequent to earth
The seventh gate of Nana - "Outcry thy sin!",
While the sixth portal of Lord Mastema opens wide.
Nana: God of the Moon: I convoke to thee.
Our terra firma regrets burning the scriptures
An abyss will seek menace towards the reign once again.
Ostentation of your heart is
A heart filled with lunar parallaxes
If you look, The elders anticipate the arrival
...Of the black and amoral innocents
If you look, The Celestial Pantheon will burn
[Cairn Warrior's Appetency of Invultuation:]
I am the one to seek the courtly witch -
She is the one to find me.
I am the one to yearn the dazzling bitch -
She is the one to bind me.
So I say, the spell has begun!
[Tea (Courtly Witch):]
"The darkness is starting and control is done..."
[Cairn Warrior:]
Stones of power inside this sphere
are stark stones of magick -
I am joining the mystic ring,
with this woman, as we implore.
We do implore.
I am aiding the mystic writ;
I am gifted knowledge from deep wells!
[Chorus - Cairn Warrior's First Myaltic Rite:]
Candle of fire, candle of might,
Create my desires here on this night -
This candles stream is suddenly flaming higher!
Bring to me my heart's desire,
My words of strength are suddenly hung,
So I proudly state this spell has begun!
[Cairn Warrior:]
Stones of power within ire
are strong stones of cabal.
I am joined int he magick round,
with this bitch, as we implore.
We shall explore.
With Paralda by my side,
I am granted sylphs and zephyrs!
[Cairn Warrior's Second Myaltic Rite:]
Show me the rings of your cosmic fire,
Make my pathway carved and clear.
Give me a code that's no will of mine,
To show me your presence is here!
[Repeat Cairn Warrior's Second Myaltic Rite]
[Chorus II - Cairn Warrior's Last Myaltic Rite:]
Courtly witch of the beast -
Courtly bitch of the daring arm,
I am your tyro, yet never alarmed!
A dash of thistle, and in my dreams -
Give me the silver-gilt key,
That will unlock the spell...
"He who lives alone, longs only for mercy, the mercy of falling on his side.
The brave have perished in laurel-crowned glory,
yet the brave shall carrythe name of Eire into eternity."
"Eternity is like a flame, it's essence is so limitless."
"Eternity is a deathless pith covering the Southern and burning shores of his
paradise, the Tir Na N'og. When legends of steel were strong, it was louder
than any uproar of thunder."
"...of Celtic fire, he was born. He will live on... FOREVER."

Never Blow Out The Eastern Candle
Your five-fold kiss was rather invoking;
Beside the chancel is your unphallic wand,
And use it wisely in order to fly.
MOONFIRE!
ALLAXITOS!
My jewel is the lust from your kiss;
Your breasts made me the lover of the three-fold locus,
So take thy hand and join me for elixir,
And we shall ride the portentous serpent tonight.
Your five fold tongue has defiled me,
I'm stranded by the tree of Storax
Thus, we banish your unphallic wand,
In order to make our nexus ecstasy
MOONFIRE!
CUM TO ME.
ALLAXITOS!
CUM WITH THEE.
NEVER BLOW OUT THE EASTERN CANDLE!
NEVER BLOW OUT THE EASTERN CANDLE!
NEVER BLOW OUT THE EASTERN CANDLE!
Thousand after thousand
The years of tradition linger
For the wisdom of magic(k)
The supra catalyst swells
Servants of the arcane order
The hypnotized beings
Can you commemorate?
The burden of ignorance
Clad in robes imprinted with spells
Regress time - degenerate
Founders of mankind,
Come lay your claim
Revert - Annunaki
Those of the void will re-enter
Clad in robes imprinted with spells
Regress time - degenerate
Founders of mankind...

Though this track is never sung or spoken, in the cd
Booklet they have something wrote down for it, so here it is.
Ioldánach's Accepted Wisdom in Prefaced Tense;
In the great strategy of bout, there will be three thousand score.
They will do as they see fit.
They are neither younger nor older
Than them, in their klans;
A triumph declared: three tyrants will conquer
Surmounting for undying candor,
As one and three will stand as one;
Their swords blemish with crimson clots.
That's a great honor, killing one by one, and
"A GREAT INCENTIVE," according to them.
If they go to where the king is killed, then
They will compose (he shall decompose)-
They will compile a final victory for his fortitude
Namtar, you're the Hyle of plague-ness

Many became the victim of the hunt
and attack
Inside the Order was a ruse for the fall
A greater key was used to open the portals
Afterwards, mages were allocated
underneath
He practiced his knacks and skills of trickery
Most malicious, he became revolting
Spirits were locked inside the mirrored vestibule
The Circle was ambushed by cornered, lined frontiers
Grabbing a staff, he waited for the practical
Dressed in the robe, he adjured the Circle
(Faultless seal, a greater key, ascendancy)
"O' Amy, you're the foremost of sphere and space"
"O' Amy, you're the foremost of fortune and splendour"
He saw and aloof principle as one being
Most sharp-eyed, he watched day transfigure
to the night (from the fire, combustion)
The mages self-sustained the beckon (summoning)
Studying bleak matter tied to obscured strings
A morph-genetic field of imps disturbed then
ANNIHILATE - the seeds of real
ABANDON - the standard dimension feel
ASSIMILATE - the logic of chaos

One silver cloud collapsed below the glow of a harvest fullmoon.
'Cause we're here to make an oath
and we'll raise our realm in a sky of maroon.
Our stratosphere turned dark; however,
the Western winds never stopped blowing.
All deceiving religions fall, we'll gonna close our hands,
and make our own way.
Ignite the wroth flames -
3 fires to the sky
Before the violence,
We stand before the most, wild beast.
We'll rape the peace.
Once again,
We summon you,
To join us all!
Standing upon the sand of the shores
was a Queen, with a crown, of 13 stars.
She worships the dragon above,
which exalts impiety in that wild beast.
Our father is here with us and we'll summon you to join us.
If we're bonded by jewels and blood on our fists,
then we hail you within kingdoms of mist.
Gorias! (The silver sword of the moon)
Finias! (The flaming lancet of the sun)
[Cairn Warrior's Atrocious Assertion to War:]
I (still) admire the flow of echoing horns.
Mimicking blows so boldly, I hear...
I stand visibly, high, on this splendid bastion,
To remember a High King, a tyrant of no fear
I am the first son: a commander without a father,
"Fortuitous doom," the last of his predictions.
I'll take advantage by igniting the balusters...
Preparing enraged flames with sweltering speed.
[Chorus I - Cairn Warrior and Art Aenfer's War Exclamation (High King of Tara):]
(THESE ARE THE) PILLARS OF MERCY!
Today, I am callous...
Tomorrow, I am king -
Immortal, strong, exultant, and conquering!
[Chorus II:]
PILLARS OF MERCY!
My song and my word are iniquitous -
Gathering assemblies in days gone by!
[Chorus III:]
(FIRE BURNS WITH THE) PILLARS OF MERCY!
My chariot races through saw-toothed hills,
And hurls through every valley and mere!
[Chorus IV:]
PILLARS OF MERCY!
Watchtowers collapse before the lift of the twilight,
I am swift in battle-
My voice is heard!
PILLARS OF MERCY!
Frost, fire, and wind are pelting all the columns...
There is no dilution for them to fight again!
Only three chariots are seen on the charred plains -
Through all the throngs and clusters, lambs and stallions!
"If you should speak to me now,
Then I will chamber Tara's pinnacle.
Why my father? Another damning scuffle?
I (still) admire the sound of echoing horns!"
[Chorus V - Cairn Warrior and Art Aenfer's War Exclamation (High King of Tara):]
(THOSE WERE THE) PILLARS OF MERCY!
Frenzied vultures gnawed the necks of dead men,
As the sturdy, gilded columns had seethed!
[Chorus VI:]
PILLARS OF MERCY!
Enemies' blood spurted like volley sprigs-
The blustery fight was planned, then fought!
[Chorus VII:]
(FLAMES FLAYED ON THE) PILLARS OF MERCY!
Their vapid minds were troubled and sides were pierced-
And warlike deeds had been fulfilled!
[Chorus VIII:]
PILLARS OF MERCY!
We saluted chieftains on the regal Tara -
We hailed the tyrants that governed our waters!
PILLARS OF MERCY!
STRIKE!
[Terminus:]
There shall be no lack of dignity,
For those who oppose them.
[Repeat Terminus]
As we journey over to the summit
We hear the echoes of dispossession
Who is to worry about our affliction
When my body departs from the shame
The wickedness my sinfullness
You may swell to the elysian fields
But the befall of Marduk will trace the literal thruth
The Utuk xul! Wine's Holy Fool!
Whereby to capture and atone the clouded soul
The weeping apparition looks for duration
Conjectures of being vulgar, then godless ways
Euphony sounds the sanctum bell
I will structure the ordained spell
Guide the mistress versus the throne
Here's the first seed of the inquisition
Black lake current sailed past the rushes
Dismal heights will melt the scarlet snow
I'll give my sorrow to the lady in white
'O' pale flower, you'll feel the vein in depth.'
The wanderers of the eroded
The gates of Ganzir!
The Magnum Opus
The Xenolith!
Monuments of a vanquished civilization
A cenotaph of theomorphic conjurations
Sempiternity of the ones of our underworld
Archetypal images awaits the declivity
Infinite and profane thrones
Absymal sighs of the damned
(Lyrical Magick: Proscriptor) (Voice: Proscriptor) (Bass: Equitant)
1st Verse
+++++++++
Laughter from Esharra is convincing, but unclaimed.
The last of Ka drifts across the river
- Our sky outside has not been named.
Two Ugalla-demons start their battle
- Tempest of the creek is floored in flames.
Winds of Imhullu foretold their weather
- Sea-dwelling floods reply without names.
Taste the salty tides of the Apzu
- Alight seven tablets wearing steel of lame.
Laughter from Esharra is convincing, but unclaimed.
Chorus:
6000 years past away to let the Utu tribes hear the lying words against
Azzta's truth.
6000 years past away to let the Utu tribes hear the lying words against
Azzta's truth.
6000 years past away to let the Utu tribes hear the lying words against
Azzta's truth.
Ea's eye is the way........

Bridge:
We are the ones who know the mountain passes,
and we'll search the battlefields,
in order to FIND THE ESSENTIAL WEAPONS corroded within the tan dust.
Marduk, Anu, Ellil, and Ea watch us all to test our bold and drastic strength,
so Tiamat SNEERS WITH THE HATE AND COMMANDS the storm-chariot of the horses.
Their teeth and heart carry poison to strike us down,
but cannot fill our veins with venom.
We warned you twice:
"WE COMMAND THE MUSHUSSU!"
"SHARP OF TOOTH AND STRIKE OF FANG!"
"HORNED SERPENT OF THE UNCLAIMED!"
"SHINE!"
2nd Verse
+++++++++
Make a path, fix the hour, and raise the seed
The dragon's semen is what you drink to be crowned by night
"Belet-ili, O great pythoness, kiss me!"
"Belet-ili, O great pythoness, kiss me!"
With the billowing fog, the abyss speaks below
Your wings of force cannot warp you through the times
"Belet-ili, O great pythoness, caress me!"
"Belet-ili, O great pythoness, caress me!"
In the ninth aeon, Esharra ceases the laughter
Then, Imhulla assembles the blazing cycllone
"Belet-ili, O great pythoness, embrace me!"
"Belet-ili, O great pythoness, embrace me!"
Now you are spiritually drunk from the dragon's semen,
So set your arrow in the bow and coat it with the poison
"Belet-ili, O great pythoness, clutch me!"
"Belet-ili, O great pythoness, clutch me!"
...AND SHINETH UNTO THE COLD COMETH...
{MI NA SAMHNA/NOVEMBRE, 1993}
...With sword at my side,
The horns sound the call of assembly.
Black fuckin' leather is my way of life,
as flames and burning winds cover the Earth!
(Slaughter!)
Miles of frozen lands are far behind us...
We ride along the margin of the woods.
O' great is the black swords of Eire.
Thus to speak is the shame of your lord.
We ride through the bleak winter skies;
hearts full of hate and steel shining bright!
Alas, it's ill, to walk in my shadow...
O' master of doom, you are alone.
In chariots of fire we went forth,
To call the spell of blazing flames.
My black sword of Eire has returned.
In glory, of the land, of the flame.
Child of wisdom and words...
Son of magick and the sword.
Call the spells of burning winds!!!
Swords And Leather - ...with steel, flame, and honor!!!
Swords And Leather - ...our brave hearts will conquer!!!
Swords And Leather - ...with steel, flame, and honor!!!
Swords And Leather - ...our Celtic blood will conquer!!!
...With sword at my side,
The horns sound the call of assembly.
Black fuckin' leather is our way of life,
Evil
Summoned to war
Eternal conquest for power
Gathering armies of death
To fight and kill at will
Sinister weapons of war
Piercing metal and man
Warriors
Mounted on steeds
Ride out into the mist
Awaiting
The signal to attack
Swords clash and men fall to their death
Aimless pawn
Only to die by my hand
Battle cry
Blood stains upon his chest
Endless
Eternal Pain
Thousands die for a king
Wretched
Weary souls
Raging battle never ends
Hatred
Inflicting death
Destroying the weak at heart
Eternity
Becomes less
War has drawn to an end
Overthrown
The emperor falls in defeat
Great halls
Crack and decay with neglect
Dethroned
He cries out in vengeance
Impaler
Mark is words of death
Shadows
Crusades of the past
Triumph through the fog
Sunsets drip into dusk
Flows like blood on my blade
Massacre the feckless breed
Dismiss all empty thrones
Riding, beyond the clouds,
damnation ends in despair
Awaiting
The signal to attack
Swords clash and men fall to their death
Aimless pawn
Only to die by my hand
Battle cry
The dragon's guide is chance
When the waters are disturbed
In the name of the great Pythoness
[Instrumental]
Across the northern seas, we travel
The cold freezing winds will arouse us
Spells from a woman have sent us to the seas of avagon
Transformed by our mother, we are
I am CuChulainn, the warrior of Ulster
We'll search the lands to discover the Tir Na N'og
The sea god guides our ship to Ireland
The storms push us to the palace of Visnech
Our swords with fire are rising
Our axes with fire have risen
The call from the silver horn to Visnech splits the air
Warriors answered the horn behind the western lands
Hoofs and steel hammered past the cries beyond the thorned hills
Acknowledging the commands from the king
Our play lies north to the path of Nite
And brings us upon the fortress walls where battles raged
Raise the magick hammer of Mjollnir
Your underworld of Annwvyn draws us through
Emer, thy lucious woman, I shall sleep with you
I kiss the naked skin of white
I lust your black hair, my woman divine
I see a holocaust in your eyes
(You are my princess of live)
(You are my princess of life)
Feis Mor Tir Na N'Og
In the land of Visnech, the darkness never sinks away
All will fall upon the southern steel, yet behind the burning fires
Now, we bathe at the bleeding coast, while women laugh with the Gailant
knights
How sad is it to see my father's fallen halls?
Can I feel the pure blast from the frigid winds?
I awake the gods Epona, Cernunnos, and Lugh
Yes, I'm CuChulainn, warrior fo Ulster
(repeat verse)
In order to worship with fire and sword
The storms shall force us to the palace of Visnech
Cold, cold, how cold are the plains of Lugh?
You should ask thy Emer to reply
We've finally found the last paradise
It remains in the light of Tir Na N'Og
With the hand of Ler, Irish Sea god
We shall complete our long excursion
I stood before my reflection
With a beloved adherent
Waiting beneath the cross for a purpose
To drink my tepid blood from the chalice
Impart thou in the text of Scourge
And cleft through the veil of the virgin
Purity is to live
To the highest; and the highest is unjust
[chorus:]
Fantasizing to the third of my gentile sight
In the gate of the mind appears
And arise with turbulence called I
[repeat chorus:]
The artfullness of the blind Shabbathai
For thee have I worshipped the Stars
I cried, while you perpetually died
...On top of Black Montanus of thy Septentrio
Animus of an aged Tetragrammaton
With stains, a lucid cicatrix of disgrace
With joyful, elated Endeavour
O lilywhite goat
Frail as a thicket of thorns
With a collar of gold for thy throat
A crimson bow for thy horns
O lilywhite goat
You made ma Paganal dreams erroneous
Eko, Azarak,
Eko, Eko, Zamilak,
Eko, Eko, Cernunnos
Eko, Eko, Aradia.
Darksome night and ardent moon,
The chalice is passed, then ye fall North;
Hearken to the enchantress' rune--
Listen to the words to cry ye forth.
Earth and water, ether and fire,
Wand and pentacle and sword,
Toil ye unto our desire,
Hearken ye unto our word.
Unfettered and censet, scourge and knife,
Powers of the enchantress' blade--
Waken all ye into life,
Ecliptic sects are obtained by fluxions
Phenomenon of the Holy Qabalah will
Intervene with the serpent of Daath
The inmost godhead of Phallus
Deems the temperament of Kan and Yi King
Ancient attitudes of equipoise
Drastic seasons of ceremonial permutations
There is not a creation in the firmament
The direction to conduct an angels choir
I'm still pleeding to the heinous-eyed cherubim
To see this bemired vesture of waste
Equinox!
You are the force of Lotus
And the Path of live
The venus in my cancer
And consolidation of the dyad
You are the strict joy of ectasy
And the power of yellowish light
Pour water on thyself
Thus shalt thou be
A creator of the sun
Charon will inhibit his entrance
The fields and dwellings of relapsing ruins
Find thou thyself in every star
Achieve thou every possibility
Listen! Heed not the siren-voice of thought
The fable of river #5
Deliverme athwart the earth
Forsaken loam of wondrous slumbers
Thee spiritual and thee fertile
A spawn of full equilibrium
But whose availeth is in this,
For hereby there comenth impair
Facillis descensus Acherni
Noctes atque dies patet
Atri ianua Charnus
Sed revocare gradun sperasque
Evadere ad aurus,
Hoc opus, hic labor est.
There was not a formal sepulcher
Not one sector for the interment
Throth with thee empire of hope
Goat of the welkin, A goat that dwells,
Horned conqueror of the night -
Lend your skill unto the spell,
And force our will by magick rite.
By all the endowment of land and sea
By all the might of moon and sun -
As we do will, so mote it be;
Chant the spell, and be it done.
Eko, Eko, Azarak,
Eko, Eko, Zamilak,
Eko, Eko, Cernunnos,
In the name
I give the powers to the spell
In the name
True visions of time are forthcoming
In the name
I confer brawn to incantations
In the name
Gray vapors begin to clamber high
The great scimitar of Barzai
Alabaster statuette of Yebsu
The representation of Koth
Cobalt flames light the blaze of Laurel
In the day
Mars and Saturn make collision
In the day
Place the ewer upon the fire
In the day
All the secrets are deaf in silence
In the day
I am the Lord of every Spectre
In the light
Grant equal parts of rune and weapon
In the light
Place the green glass onto the seal
In the light
Four winds cry the words of control
In the light
Seven nights will unchain the soul
In the name
I give uproar to the Great Abyss
In the name
I give the powers to the spell
In the name
Of the unction inside the sigil
In the name
Remember!
Remember the drift of the night's fire?
Where the flames run around with desire
Blazes spread to the fore charring the foe
Granting the competence and burning all
The headmaster of magicians is
The serpent -king and the slayer
The possessor of the torches speaks
To the night with desire
The night's fire dances to a song of fall and wonder
The sultry weapon that calls you here now
The majesty is the power
Which corrupts the offspring (the paltry)
That shall never transpire
And always be denied
That shall never transpire
And always be denied (be declined)
The sun is sable
The moon is weeping
The planets are failing
As the earth starts to shake
The flames look secure
Within all the chaos
The fire sounds safe
Like a voice from the sky
The keys to hereafter
The flaxen-crimson embers
The symbols and the signals of
Destruction and withering
A night's fire is
The portrait of what was
Of what is
Of what is to come
So we shall singe them and
We shall burn them and
We will destroy them to
Remember the pith of the night's fire
The night's fire torches hatred to stone
As the sun turns cold
The stars fall fast and

Chorus:
The Wanderers of the Waste infested plateaus:
Time and Space
Then, Sirius prearranged calendars of lone
Continuum
Astral sketch was not self-incandescent
Its light was produced by rays of the Sun
Eyeless void felt generations of heat
The first seed of Mind – The Light of the South
Breath by itself
Without wind, pyramids…
Concentrated
Cyclic flux, triangles…
Air nor Earth nor were protected as of yet.
The water was not deep, yet unfathomable
Nonentity occurred
Darkness swathed in darkness: unmanifestation
Decree:
Chaos never dies
Sothis hides beyond the aeon
Locked forever
Unfaltering
The Sun behind the Sun spawns twin aspects of tide
Up, down was beginning to frame itself
Casters of the second seed gained control (of the Deep)
Energy was beneath - impulse above.
Demonic laughter your cremation
Your lungs gasp for air but are filled with blood
A sudden crack as I crushed your skull
The remind of your life flashes by
A life that soon won't be
Smiling with axe in my hand
Evil's rotten hand you'll see
I come forward
Deathcrush
I'll send you to your maker
I'll send you to your death
Death nicely crucified
Death, heads on stakes
The barbeque has just begun
Deathcrush - Deathcrush - Deathcrush
Crush - Crush

Sea of uruk
I taste the salt of you
I hunt through sands of Roba El Khaliyeh

You shall drown the fearless ones
The sword of Lapis Lazuli Diadem
Your fullness and strength is my delight
Edin Na Zu, Edin Na Zu
The stars have spoken to me
They've told me the tale of your past
Battles were clashed by you
Long before the cosmos existed
O' mountains of Mashu
Please help me to find the grey stone
I lost it, yet it's symbol unequals your race
I am in search of the Northern Nineveh;
it's beyond the hills of Zagros
I thrust my sword onto the veil, and then, in the Earth
Reversed lightning strikes Sumerian sands
They glance at me with eyes of Sunkun Varloorni
Their eyes flare red with glowing embers
Follow the path of gold and ye shall find the symbols:
Arra, Agga, and Bandar
In my sleeping village of Bet Durrabia,
Shabatu forces the nineteenth hour
Ye go to thy Apzu; the unsightly abyss of Enidu
Ye go to thy Apzu; the impious axis of Enidu
I have traveled beneth the seas
in search of our master's palace
I have finally found the grey stone
of the immemorial ones
I have raised my armies in the lands
of the eastern, summoning hordes
I have seen Ngga, God of Heathens,
as my sword Diadem gleams
The cosmos shall be greeted from the blood of thez serpent
A serpent well known as Tehom Mummu Tiamat
Man shall be greeted from the blood of Kingu
Thy queen of mashu will haunt the vision of your breed
O' my queen, I feel your skin of white,
I touch your breasts of life,
yet there's a battle I must fight
Zagros, Avagon, Ngga, Shabatu
Thy skin of white misses you
Please don't leave me ever, nevermore
Unless you go, please take me with you
We'll ride onto wings of Anzu
I heard the bellow of wolves behind the half-burnt waves
The tides of uruk swept your tongue across the salty floor
We have found the Apzu; our birthplace toward Avagon
We have found the Apzu; our meridian toward the dark

Voor Our Earth of black blemishes with a curse
Conclaves of spirits evoke and call forth
One grand night follows by a lone cold night
As the seven grottos head to the bowels of Earth
The dead shall know there is never peace to make the first sign of Voor
Flouting through the gates of astral planes to the second sign of Kish
Dwelling in the outlines of wraiths to the third sign of Koth
The dead shall nosh upon passageways of ye Elder Ones
Diversified signs inscribe a reminder for the shade of spirits
It protects those who would evoke ye powers by night
Serpentine lamias and ravage-clawed harpies
Liquefy and eat into the gifts of decay
Every dream of man and woman coils by the worm
As the ghouls race to the world of the living
The dead shall know there is never peace to make the first sign of Voor
Flouting through the gates of astral planes to the second sign of Kish
Dwelling in the outlines of wraiths to the third sign of Koth
The dead shall nosh upon passageways of ye Elder Ones
Diversified signs inscribe a reminder for the shade of spirits
It protects those who would evoke ye powers by night
Serpentine lamias and ravage-clawed harpies
Liquefy and eat into the gifts of decay
Every dream of man and woman coils by the worm
Long ago - in the shade of timberlands
Horses and wolves united - with our invoking orbit
In order to blister - the green summer plains
We heard commands - from our benighted master:
"Reap from the illumated sky
...and become visible to thy eye!"
"I beseech thee; I entreat me"
"O circle of storms, my shield is cracked!"
We stand here to cultivate
And summon smoke from the meadow
A sweep of an athame
(The widdershin), willunlock the deep portals
Long ago - in the shade of timberlands
Horses and wolves united - with our invoking orbit
In order to blister - the green summer plains
We heard commands - from our benighted master:
"Ye overseer of the watchtowers below all clouds;
we thank you for framing the Rite of Hagiel.
Bygone and beyond, we must always and without ease, be explused.
The season or solstice is complete when the shepherd of
Wolves lie upon vanishing hill's way.
We shall lure thy lost flock from shadows onto day.
Aloneness is our space of winged sleep and sight;
Ripping tearing slashing the axe
The blood starts to flow the axe of pain
Running for safety eyes start to bleed
Red is the sight of evil pain
Swing of the axe the curse is on you
Returning to take you away
Swing of the axe your evil deeds
Friend of Satan he will succeed
You had your choice
You chose your ways
You took the devil he's wrong
Your mind is mistaken
Your soul has been taken
Your brain's been twisted and lost
I can see
The river of flames
Where you'll be cast and thrown
Heavens of fire
At Satan's desire
Hell is now your home
Sin after sin
Your brains are crushed in
This is the way that you want
Wrong from the start
You weren't so smart

A Cairn warrior dressed in his harness feeling fury and frenzy.
His silky top had blood stained gauze stretched across his pecks.
His tartan had lines of symmetry running east and west.
An embellished shield with an iron face was embraced in his left hand.

"I welcome thee, o' victorious, I'm skirmishing...at the lift!"
"I welcome thee, o' victorious, I'm skirmishing...by the dark!"

He rushed to feed the fire,
As honor gained him a home -
He veered beyond the pyres,
The Son of Cairn sat enthroned.
An iron shield gaped toward the sky,
With oak wood and leather backing;
Reprisal lead the way to his mind,
And so it did.
[Cairn Warrior's Question of Vindication:]
"C¡ bhfuilimid ag dul amarach?" ("Where are we marching tomorrow?")

A shield with an iron face gapes towards the sky,
The death of a man is never going to die.
A resolute falcon gawks back at the armor -
On the wing, yet on the lifting hour.

The last clash will crown one son to the Pictish throne.
"My father's the king!" cries this tyrant, aimed for bloodshed.
Three flags will fly between the Esk and Dee rivers.

Follow the tracks of this mailed horseman (geared with pole-ax in his hand).
The blades from Balkan Hills are sharpened (cut for slaying and whetted to fight).
The child has proven his gallantry (he shall not abuse Teutonic codes).
He's spiked and sent forth in a frenzy (their king sits at his table).

Monuments of a vanquished civilization
A cenotaph of theomorphic conjuratiOns
Sempiternity of the ones of our underworld
Archetypal images awaits the declivity
Infinite and profane thrones
Absymal sighs of the damned
