1. The Chant Of The Witch

Darksome Night and shining Moon
East then South then West then North
Harken to the Witches' Rune
Here I come to call Thee forth

Earth and Water, Air and Fire
Wand and Pentacle and Sword
Work thee now to my Desire
Harken ye unto my Word

Queen of heaven, Queen of Hell
Horned Hunter of the Night
Lend your Power unto my Spell
Work my Will by Magic Rite
Power of Land (and) Sway of Sea
Might of Moon and gift of sun
Do as I will (and) let It be
Chant the Spell and It be done.

2. Prologue (Waiting For His Coming)

ALONE, in a world of light
ALONE, in the reign of christ
THE BEAST, resting in the deeps of Ade
THE FEAST, I'm preparing

MY HANDS, stained with blood
A CORPSE, bleeding at my feet
THE WIND, rose from the North has dropped
THE SLAUGHTER, now begins

FATHER, You come at last
SATAN, You are here for us
THE BEAST, in the deeps of Ade awakes
THE END, gets near

WE SERVE YOU
WE SERVE YOU
WE SERVE YOU
WE SERVE YOU


3. The Return Of The Horned King

Spirit of the Unknown Domain,
Father forgotten by your children,
A long journey You endured,
Through stranger reigns now here
As an ageless Soul upon Stormy Oceans
You travelled to reach your lost sons.

Master, here we are
Waiting, for Your coming
Lost, is our Source
Mislaid, is our Goal

"Oh my King, You're here at last.
I swear by Your Dark Throne my total obedience,
I seal this Oath with my blood.
Make whatever You want of our lives,
They're yours, and so this world".

Finally He arrives to the Place
Where His people live
Rage when He sees another Lord
On His jewelled throne
For years the battle lasts
Leaving only corpses and dust
At the end our King slays His enemy.

NOW HE SITS ON HIS THRONE

Master, here're our Souls
Meaningless, as we born
Slaves, to the Dark Domain
Fighting, for our Black Faith

"Darkness fills the Air. Stench of putrid things in it.
(Ancient) monuments to a forgotten christ are burning,
His followers are hanged on every tree, their flesh is food for the birds,
Their Souls are the dish of our Lord".


4. Sorrow Of The Witch (Path To A Greater Knowledge)

I wander
With my mind
My true strength
My free hand

Find the Way...
Reach the Pain...

Then a day
I realise
Where to dig
Where to find It

"Beyond the Pain I pass,
Senseless to this body,
My Soul is free to wander
In the Realm of Nothingness,
And here I find the Essence,
Banished in a Rubin Tower,

Yes, I find It, but I cannot catch It,
'cause my Body is calling me,

More Pain I need to go
Beyond the Wall of Flesh,

The Gate to a greater Knowledge is not open yet".


5. Dreamquest (Il Monito Di Nasht E Kaman-Thah) (Intro)

Ascolta la mia voce, odila nella fredda notte, seguila nell'oscurit...,
Sar... la tua guida in questo viaggio. Vedrai strani mondi e creature da incubo.
Afferra la mia mano, raggiungimi nel Regno della Notte Eterna.

Ascolta la Sua voce, odila nella fredda notte, seguila nell'oscurit...,
Sar... la tua guida in questo viaggio. Vedrai strani mondi e creature da incubo.
Afferra la Sua mano, raggiungimi nel Regno della Notte Eterna.


6. Sad Doom Of A Dark Soul (Chutulusumgal's Presence)

I feel You
In my sleeps
In my dreams
When I wake
When I lie...

This cold tower
Called R'lyeh
Is my jail
Feel, oh man
My dark hand
On your doom...

Now I'm blind
Now I'm lost
Show the path
Guide my sight
Where am I?...

Oh poor life being
Leave your body
Feel my presence
Touch my hatred
For your kind
Let me penetrate your life...

"Everything's so vague.
Mist covers my spirit;
I feel a presence,
I hear his breath, I call,
I cry, silence in his voice.
Now I'm lost, no way-out from this land of loneliness..."
You are mine!


7. The Ancient King Of Ice (Mighty Yuksuduk)

Once there was
A waste of ice
Where Kadath rested
With its towers

Once there was
An ancient king
Whose emblems were
13 globes

Lost in times
Forgotten by mankind
The King has hide
His dark globes

"I miss You,
Oh, my King,
Where is your land?
Where are your globes?"

"Beyond the highlands of Leng,
Beyond the Mountains of Madness,
Along the great waste of ice,
There lie the ruins of the unknown Kadath,
Surrounded by the great walls of gore,
With its dark towers that strike
The stars, there lies the Abominion,
Gate to the Abyss of the Outer Spaces,
There (He) lies in the sleep of death,
Dreaming the triumph of his revenge,
But one day even the death will die..."

"There the globes rest,
Keys to their King,
The mighty Yugsuduk,
Convex gate to the Outer Spaces."

"Find'em!"
He wrote
"Unleash me!"
On his stone.

Where is it?
Where are you?


8. The Awakening (Outro)

Other quests lie in front of you, the path is long.

Now it's time to wake, but you 'll be back.

Back to me, in my Kingdom of Darkness


9. Witchlord

Moon... is black tonight
Silence... is mantling every sound
Shadows... coming down the hills.
Fires... are burning in the clearing
Witches... are dancing... ghosts around the pot.

Crying... praying... summoning the Witchlord.
"Witchlord, come to us, thine servants 'till the end.
Possessed by Evil, we're trembling for thy strength".
Windblows... shaking the treetops.
Lightning... flashing through the (clear) sky
Thunder... frightening men asleep.
Black shapes... coming out the pot
Witches... are bowing... boneless before the dark smoke Weeping...
Shaking... summoning the Witchlord
"Witchlord, come to us, thine servants 'till the end.
Possessed by Evil, we're trembling for thy strength".

A blaze of darkness from the Reign of Black strikes the pot in the middle of the glade;
A gust of smoke rising from the circle melts to poison as two horns appear;
A voice of sickness from a goated helm fills the air with a mortal stench.

"Kneel, my servants, I heard your sick pleas, the time has come to fight for your faith.
EVOL, my Lord, send me to drive you, the storm of death we will bring on earth.
Thunder, Plague, Wind, Flood, come to my request, Father give me strength.
Rise up your weapons and follow my dark sword, children of darkness, bow to the Witchlord".


10. Sorrow Of The Witch (Live)

I wander
With my mind
My true strength
My free hand

Find the Way...
Reach the Pain...

Then a day
I realise
Where to dig
Where to find It

"Beyond the Pain I pass, senseless to this body,
My Soul is free to wander in the Realm of Nothingness,
And here I find the Essence, banished in a Rubin Tower,
Yes, I find It, but I cannot catch It, 'cause my Body is calling me,
More Pain I need to go beyond the Wall of Flesh,
The Gate to a greater Knowledge is not open yet".
