2. Ancient Queen
The Ancient Queen.
Deadly hate, deadly love.
Dark under the shadow.
Death has been resisted.
The Ancient Queen,
ruler of the domain.
Keeper of the fury,
the Queen dwells in shadow.
Dark rivers run though me.
Darkness follows everwhere.
Kingdoms falling again and again.
Crawl to thee over again.
The Ancient Queen, the darkest woman.
Stepping through her shadow.
She who sees the soul.
Black is her blood.
Keeper of the fury.
Stepping through her shadow.
Do you see her soul?
Black is her blood.
Keeper of the fury.
Dark under the shadow.
Thy destiny lies with her.
The Ancient Queen,
ruler of the domain.
Keeper of the fury.
In shadow... shadow.
3. My Empire's Doom
Once our lord has come again,
all black hearts will celebrate
the darksome fiend
in the kingdom of sorrow.
Nocturnal fiends,
the beings of the night and shadows
calling forth the pure spirit
of the night.
Our reign may come secretly.
Your Lord's castle is gone.
His glory is no more,
and nothing can stop the purifying.
They remember how you conjured
all those years of sorrow.
Blasting winds of darkness conquer.
Dark lords and their minions coming through.
Hate and sin to remain.
Empty hearts fearing thy name.
Darkness hammers through on the priests.
Darkness hammers forward on the cross.
Servants of God, we will desecrate your coward race
with darkness.
Darkness hammers through on the priests.
Darkness hammers forward on the cross.
Servants of God, we will desecrate your coward race
with darkness.
Once our lord has come again,
all black hearts will celebrate
the darksome fiend
in the kingdom of sorrow.
When he returns his spirits must choose purity.
When he conquers kingdoms of death
our dead shall all reign again.
Our reign may come secretly.
Your Lord's castle is gone.
His glory is no more,
and nothing can stop the purifying.
They remember how you conjured
all those years of sorrow.
Awakened from the shadows to create.
Riding with me and with all his chosen.
Our lord to be has come again.
Riding from the past.
Little you know your life fades.
4. Forgotten Centuries
5. Night of the Graveless Souls
When the depths(?) are creeping in
Dark is the fe../affraid tonight
Winds of storms are gathering
Seem to ignite the flame
A dream in the shadow of the sight
Ghastly winds blows tonight/in your/their eyes
They have started to ??? inside
If the deep grows pain/black(??)
Dark is awaiting/gaining(??).. control
Souls of the air appear
In the center is/in ..they appear to rape your ways
In the earth lies the evil burning
Curse this heart again ??
When the souls from the grave ??
Feed on my/their flesh
When the depths(?) are creeping in
Dark is the fe../affraid tonight
Winds of storms have passed
(The) black have been returned
6. Moon over Kara-Shehr
[This lyric was deciphered from the version
of the song found on the "Scattered Ashes" album.]
Our time is upon us.
Master! Appear!
Over the nocturnal sky
from the mountains of black we ride.
Fly!
All thy servants fly
though the serpent's darkened sky.
Hears the opponent cry,
ravaged by his terror.
Master! We ride with the storm
in his name, the sire, wolves' king.
Enter the power coursing
through veins of the night.
Who gathers winds, summons thunder,
summons rain, summons might?
Power ripples through me.
Armageddon's thunder will bring others to my side.
The throne is mine.
A blackened storm of evil.
Evil.
Evil.
Evil.
Master! We ride with the storm to take
revenge in the sky upon the one
who cast thee from his side.
7. Witches Sabbath
[This lyric was deciphered from the version
of the song found on the "Scattered Ashes" album.]
Shifting shadows guide my way in the autumn.
From this fell alliance eternal night shall arise.
Hear the scream of the wolves calling again.
Legions are wreaking destruction upon the fortress.
They must beware his rage.
Once again he is risen.
Towns are burning, the gods arise.
Welcome the nocturnal nightmare
And suffer again.
And suffer again.
He shall suffer. Dying breed of stalwart men.
We will never deny what you can see.
In malice.
They will understand my pain.
Shifting shadows guide my way in the autumn.
From this fell alliance eternal night shall arise.
Hear the scream of the wolves calling again.
Legions are wreaking destruction upon the fortress.
8. Lord of the Storms
Earthquakes are breaking the silence,
a vision of hate.
A wicked, foul spell of evil.
Dark winds command the throne.
Cleansed by the evil hand,
a crusade of the burning land.
A servant in the shape of a snake
blackens the bodies red.
Then it appears, the storming wind,
a challenging scar burns through the light.
A cloud of darkness prepared for me
to complete the circle of death.
The serpent gains mastery of the wind
through the storms and through the streaming snow.
Sorrow blackens the Earth when the Moon fades.
Dark winds command the throne.
Earthquakes are breaking the silence,
a vision of hate.
A wicked, foul spell of evil.
Dark winds command the throne.
Cleansed by the evil hand,
a crusade of the burning land.
An embrace from Death.
9. Wrath of the Tyrant
The wolves bark with wind - in summertime??
As the moon pass(es) the shadows
It was a grim tale
Frost/first?? are therein?? from the earthly womb
??..through the empty air
When the night lose control
??Wide the gates are put open here??
The rage of fires are dead
Carrying the deaths/depths of his fallen warrior
Deep inside of me - in his grave
Walk upon this earth tonight
Carrying the staff of gold/ghoul?? swords??
A grand sign of evil will
They arise?? - death and destruction
To a time (when) the angel cries
Open your eyes again now, he's here
He is the master of fear/death
He is the wind, He is the storm
He is the woods, He is the roots
Nobody will escape the wrath of the tyrant
Forever the beast shall wander the earth
