Текст песни Opera IX Act IV: Congressus Cum Daemone

The sacred fire burns in the stone circle
In the centre of the all I'm waiting for the guardian
Powerful thunders rumble in the air
And lightnings herald the storm
Darkness turns into light and light grows into darkness
While the salamanders are continuing to dance in the heart of fire
The moon stops growing
She stretches the fronds shades as spectral witnesses
And Eurus, the east wind, gives them life

6 are the towers, 4 are the revealed seals
And now I am waiting for the next one

Thunder is rumbling again
Like the dragon's awakening from the deep abyss
I honour the dark simulacrum of the depth's gates
That is silently waiting for the event's completion
I desert the realm of chaos and
I liberate over the infernal rivers
I follow the way of the red snake
Ancestral flight
...into the depth
I will celebrate the umpteenth passage ritual
A new baptism in a space without time
Tisipnon, fury of the occult power, is waiting for me
To deliver me the black book of the supreme knowledge

I cross the hidden paths of Shaytan to violate the ayernus gates
That raise from the deep abyss up to the horrid vault
3 are the bronze doors and 3 of iron and 3 of diamonds
They are wrapped up by an eternal fire
That makes all red-hot but nothing destroys
At the sides of the awful passage 2 guardians are waiting for me

First guardian:
"Be aware of your virtue, oh animal, and the abyss
With its spectres will be overcome
Rejoyce as a new spirit and the barking of the
Infernal beasts will become silvery chant
Beyond these portals you can join the perfect lightof the space without time"

"I am Angelikos Phosphoros, Lucifer, Morning Star"

Second guardian:
"Welcome spiritual warrior who, conscious and daring, utters the secret name
Before the black diamond gates
Welcome ensign of light
This pathway knows the steps, dreads and triumphs of your search
Welcome insane hero, the only one who has descended the stairs of damnation
You, blazing sun, dare-devil who faces the hades to win yourself"

"I greet and thank you, obscure guardians, who allow my passage
Without rending my flesh. I, brave rambling being, go and reveal the fifth seal"
