1. The Dawn Of A New Age

"And I looked, and behold a pale horse:
And his name that sat on him was Death
and Hell followed with him. And power was given
unto them over the fourth part of the earth,
to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death,
and with the beasts of the earth".

And then again "I saw and beheld, a black horse;
And he that sat on him had a scythe; And a crown
was given unto him and he went forth conquering, and to conquer.
And there was a great earthquake, and the sun became black
as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood.

And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth,
even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs,
when she is shaken of a mighty wind. And the heaven
departed as a scroll when it is rolled together,
and every mountain and island were moved out of their places."
Almighty mountains and rocks, I beg you fall on them.

For the great day of wrath is coming, and who shall be able to stand?

[From The Book of Revelations: Edited and partly re-written by Satyr.]






2. Forhekset

Forhekset av tidenes vind, Besatt av Nattens kolde gufs
Under ravnsvart himmel de bedriver Blodskam og hor
Med skingrende stemmer de p†kaller Dypets makter
I en sirkel bundet av Grimme visjoner

B†ret av dyrets Glans, Omfavnet av dídens vinger
Av det dypeste hat i det sorteste av det morke
I en eng av torner...N† i fullm†nens besettende lys

De nagler englene til jorden med sjel og kropp
Kaos hersker over de hvite domener
Profetier blir oppfylt
Jorden st†r i et hav av flammer






3. Mother North

Mother north - how can they sleep while their beds are burning ?
Mother north - your fields are bleeding

Memories...The invisible wounds
pictures that enshrine your throne (gone?)

A Future benighted still they are blind
Pigeonhearted beings of flesh and blood
keeps closing their eyes for the dangers that threat...ourselves and our nature
And that is why
they all enrage me

Sometimes in the dead of the night i mesmerize my soul
Sights and visions prophecies and horror
they all come in one

Mother north - united we stand (together we walk)
Phantom north - I'll be there when you hunt them down






4. Du Som Hater Gud

Du som hater gud og kristent liv
Fíler hans n‘rv‘r som en bitter kreft
Her m† det skjendes og skjendes kvasst
Himmerikets enger dynket i blod

Hater av gud
Og lyspesten

Se inn i guds lamme íyne
S† soytter de i hans †syn
Sl† i hjel hans ynkelige lam
Med klibbe

Gud med diff og dine
Har du lagt mitt norgesrike i ruiner
Fordumstiders staute skikk og bruk
Kvestet du med dine stygge ord
N† skal du bort fra v†r mark






5. Immortality Passion

I am the beast in passionate pain
I am the grim being of the highlands
Of the other side...
I am winter when you freeze
I am the hammer and you are the anvil

Forever in warfare my heart is
With my passion of despair
Still though I was there when the hills were born
And when the wind blew for the first time
So there are reasons for my existence

Seems like I dwell in a circle
Somewhere in the Nordic Hemisphere

Where the howling winds rage
And the mountains are majestic
I can breathe and where there is
Human flesh I feel strangled

Open the gate to immortality
I stand proud awaiting the glory
Of a new morning...darkness






6. Nemesis Divina

Eder har gjort vaart rike raattent
eder har gjort vaart gull rustent
og Hammene fra de veldige sletter er alt vi har aa minnes fra verdig
manns lid

Eder har bragt kvalmende lys i dragens hule
eder har malf kors paa hammer
og vi har siktet pilen paa menneskesínnens usle trone

Nemesis divina splinten i íyet paa jehova
Nemesis divina kniven i hjertet paa guds sínn

Eder har bragt elsk til fiende
Eder har gjort ravn til due
Men def olme íyet er vendf mot eder og hevnens klokke ringer

Eder er vitnesbyrd om brente broer og glemte sanger
Eder er barmhjertighetens fedre og milleniumspestens budbringere
Dog skal en dag naa komme da eder barn i tre skal henge

Nemesis divina splinten i íyet paa jehova
Nemesis divina kniven i hjertet paa guds sínn

For stridsmenn har naa hevet íksen og bespottelsens tegn er reist
Nemesis divina - for straffen maa komme
