  1. Nocturne
  "Lost in a dream...
 Drowning in the eyes
 Of a statue who dreamt a little dream of me...
 Incipiunt hic tenebrarum lectiones secundae,
 Cum Lucifer receptaculum noctis evasus,
 Demergitur in undis somniorum suorum...
 ...Quem statua observat.
 
 But here there is no light."
 
 
 
  2. Ethereal Journey
  Vaste oceane stellate, virgo omnis malefici,
 Est hospes mirus se mergens in sinum tuum.
 Creaturam tuam custodi,
 tempestate ignem arce,
 Quem non restinguere potes.
 Venit Lucifer!
 Venit angelus mortis!
 
 Luciferian Revolution!
 
 Far beyond the sky,
 Far beneath the heavens,
 Where once before I died,
 To perpetuate my hymen...
 
 ...with a star...
 Heading for the open sky... where the flames
 never dared to come...
 The rays of the moon linking
 the spheres... the molochian comets...
 
 During my ethereal journeys,
 With celestial glory and pride,
 I will celebrate the day
 When you become my bride.
 
 To rape the shining stars in the secrets
 of the dying light.
 The starred delights will enrapture
 my soul to insanity.
 Rapturous elevation frightening
 the God of Light.
 I tear the flowers of the sky,
 The firmaments of stars embosomed
 in His Creation,
 But the starlit ocean will not quench my
 thirst for their glowing nectar:
 I drained the wine of a thousand suns.
 
 Sanctus, sanctus, sanctus,
 Dominus deus sabaoth,
 Pleni sunt caelum et terra gloria tua.
 Hosanna in excelsis.
 
 You are the light, I am the flame,
 The freezing blow of my thoughts
 unburns me
 And I am dying but cannot die.
 
 The divine has deserted the altar
 Where your pain is multuplied in the prism
 Of my lust witnessed by the stars.
 The delight burns at its paroxism.
 
 To rape the shining stars in the secrets
 of the dying light.
 The starred delights will enrapture
 my soul to insanity.
 Rapturous elevation frightening
 the God of Light.
 I was made the Morningstar,
 Embowered from the night...
 God of Lie, I am the Prince of Darkness,
 the Star of Mourning
 Hunting the light of salvation.
 
 O Domine,
 Dona nobis vim, ut eum oppugnemus.
 In nos luminem perpetuum fundi iube.
 
 You took the fire in my eyes
 When I was starving of light.
 You take delights in my cries
 For I am dying but cannot die.
 
 While entrusting the flame
 to a celestial abyss,
 I will get drunk of screaming and of pain,
 And the silence and the night
 will move at last unto me.
 
 Far beyond the sky,
 Far beneath the heavens
 Where once before I died,
 To perpetuate my hymen...
 
 With a star!
 
 
 
  3. The Luciferian Revolution
  Flores solis, ardentes in aeternum,
 Ne secuti sitis fatum floris venenati...
 Colores delectant, inebriant odores,
 At siccatur sinus perpetuo lacrimando...
 Nam angeli cursus firmamentum
 lacrimarum...
 
 I depart from this world of grey
 to reach the red eternal.
 
 Red, the scarlet letters burn within my mind:
 We won't follow the Sun in its course.
 We will follow the Moon in its curse.
 Lacerate the heavens, devour the Sun,
 rape the light.
 
 We are waiting for an eternal night
 Where to keep Heaven's tears away from the
 eyes of the sun,
 Cast away from your universe of warmth,
 of love and shelter,
 The path of the angel is a firmament of tears.
 
 Luxuries of pain, lurid agony,
 The universe echoes the scream
 Of a soul overflowed with sorrow.
 Exhausted, let me drown in your eyes!
 
 Shatter the stars, drag out the ligth
 And drown it in the deepest seas of my mind;
 I need no more brightness:
 I am the night and the shadows.
 I am the field when pain is the seed.
 
 Flores noctis sumus atque alas pandimus
 In profundis tenebrarum
 Solus halitus emanans penna speculae,
 Quam expellit folium mortis.
 
 Shatter the stars, drag out the ligth
 And drown it in the deepest seas of my mind;
 I need no more brightness:
 I am the night and the shadows.
 I am the field when darkness is the seed.
 
 The golden pandaemonic silence soothes me
 As the streams of my satufied thoughts draw
 the pattern of my kingdom,
 Imperium infernale.
 
 But we will regain the paradise
 For in the east of Eden,
 I will shed the blood of Christ...
 
 
 
  4. Eden (The Angel in the Garden)
  Horror atque terror
 Quid faciebas, malefice
 Die irae, dies ille
 Sovet saeculum in favillam.
 Lost in the garden,
 with the blood on my hands,
 Captive of the luminous trees,
 Of wisdom and of life
 the Holy Keepers,
 My face unmasked, monstrous, bloodred,
 Is shining through the emerald light.
 Numquam diruetur templum
 adamantinum
 Nos, qui olim vicimus,
 vincemus te iternum.
 I eat the deadly flowers
 of murderous lust,
 And begin to chant my freedom.
 Musical death, of Heaven the dirge.
 The Universe I master,
 I make mine the burning delights of life,
 The joy of power unbounded,
 Eternal Fury of celestial destruction...
 Lucifer, damnatus es, pro ea,
 quae faciebas.
 Persequemur te,
 iterum perdemus te,
 Inferna dulcius perfugium
 Quam vorago cruciatuum,
 In quam te praecipitabimus.
 Non est dominus noster,
 nihil potest.
 God is dead
 God is dead
 God is dead
 
 As I tore the shreds
 of this morbid dream,
 I abandoned my heart,
 And on the silent ocean of my soul,
 The waters were so calm
 one could hear the dying of light.
 
 
 
  5. The Silence of Light
  I heal my wounds in
 the orchard of misery
 Where the fruits and the trees
 have turned to dust.
 Be merciful, my Lord.
 The meadows of Light and Pulchritude
 Are blackened and soiled
 by emptiness and despair.
 
 Domine, eius miserere,
 Lord have mercy on me.
 Eam libera de animis damnatorum
 Sine eam fulgere in refugio tenebrarum.
 
 Confutatis maledictis,
 Alas, that day of tears
 and mourning.
 Flammis acribus addictis.
 
 Miserere, miserere,
 Salva me.
 Gloria in excelsis Deo.
 Gloria.
 Hosanna in excelsis.
 
 Eternal rest give unto me, O Lord,
 Perpetual Light cannot shine upon
 the soul of the Damned.
 
 Salva me, libera me.
 Ille sanguis, ille cruor.
 Lumen moritur.
 
 Numquam lumen moritur!
 Numquam!
 Hosanna in excelsis.
 
 Eternal rest given unto me, O Lord,
 Because Thou art merciful.
 
 Non dono tibi soporem aeternum,
 Nam misericors sum.
 
 
 
  6. Antienne
  Errante à jamais sous la lune blafarde et voilée,
 Qui pleure la nuit, la pluie des douleurs étherées,
 La pierre au doux visage, levant ses yeux étoilés,
 Guette l'âme seulette qui va au travers des cieux
 Son envirant périple - rêve inachevé des dieux!
 Et songe, sous l'if sombre et le cèdre mystérieux,
 Voler cet attelage avant qu'il n'atteigne des lieux
 Que son impuissance empierrée ne saurait explorer.
 
 
 
  7. Dancing under the Closed Eyes of Paradise
  SOPOR AETERNUS...
 
 O mortis secretum, ubi finis nervorum?
 O funeris algor, ubi sonus somniorum?
 
 The insane wine of the night misled my soul
 At the confluence of dream and of pain...
 We dance under the closed eyes of paradise,
 And our eyes tear the insane space
 of the light.
 
 Saltemus sub oculis coniventibus paradisi!
 
 The voilence of the winter moon
 spreads a mantle
 Of cold icy pain over my petrified landscape.
 Seized by the freezing frosts
 of the diabolic winter,
 Our hearts breathe the winds of sadness.
 
 Saliamus, saliamus aeterno,
 Saltemus, saltatum mortis!
 Saliamus, saliamus!
 
 But what is in my heart can only be read
 by the winds
 That gathered my words of pain.
 The veil of the nigth falls at your feet
 Revealing the views of the fiery sky.
 Kyrie eleison.
 The gentle sapphirian night wrapped me
 in its maternal warmth
 And her hair, studded with stars,
 had a scent of sensuality
 As I lay embraced in her sweet caress.
 How tender is the nigth
 in her amorous delights.
 
 Where are the flowers I gave you, my love?
 The amaranth, the rose and the lily.
 
 Buried within the glacial vault
 of my thoughts,
 Take from me this fading breath,
 Enfold me in your veil of darkness
 To celebrate the reign of black eternal night.
 
 And in the snows, glittering
 in the cold fragile moonlight,
 Appeared the incandescent flowers...
 The blood of angels,
 Said one of our round.
 "Our blood".
 
 We dance...
 ...and the blowing of the winds is
 our only music,
 We dance.
 
 
 
  8. Les Ténèbres du Dehors
  Lamentorum tuorum error cordes nostra refrigerat,
 Lacrimarum tuarum tener ros adustiones mitigat...
 Stella diuma, caelum tuam lucem continere non potest...
 
 As I entered the limbs of solitude,
 Cum Lucifer paulatim penetraret
 Cum penetrares sinum tenebrarum
 The darkness grew deep inside me
 In simun limborum solitudine,
 Reflected in the eyes of the statue
 Eum tenebrae impleverunt
 Lux te reliquit
 Of what I once was and no more shall be.
 Atque chaos interius astri morientis
 In oculis statuae angelicae repercussum...
