[At The Beginning Is Death]
[Music: A. Nasseri / Lyrics: A. Nasseri]
Tremens factus sum ego [I shake because of the
facts]
Et timeo [and I'm scared]
Dum discussio [while I talk]
Venerit at que ventura ira [it will come to the upcoming
wrath]
Et timeo [and I'm scared]
Dum discussio [while I talk]
Venerit at que ventura ira [it will come to the upcoming
wrath]
Herbei, ihr Leut' - das Fest beginnt [come run up you people, the celebration starts]
Nehmt Platz auf besten Rngen [take
your seats on best places]
Seht, wie der flehend Mann dort kniet [see how the begging man kneels there]
Seht den Ketzer, ich sag, er
soll brennen heut' Nacht [see the heretic, tonight he shall burn I say]
Soll ihn spr'n, den Tod, er kommt langsam und lacht [(he)
should feel death, it comes slowly and laughs]
Und als die Tchter des Teufels er nennt [and as he tells about Devil's daughters]
Die
Sense den Faden des Lebens zertrennt [the scythe severs the thread of life]
Und als sein letzter Schrei erstirbt [and when his
final scream dies]
Die Flammen ihn verschlingen [flames consume him]
Und Kindesweinen bricht die Still.... [children's crying breaks
the silence...]
Seht zur Asche ward er, der die Lgen erzhlt [see to ashes he went who told those lies]
Im Zeichen des Kreuzes [under
the sign of the cross]
Hat er seinen Tod selbst gewhlt [he chose his death himself]
Doch unsere Seelen sind rein... [but our souls
are pure...]
Doch unsere Seelen sind rein... [but our souls are pure...]
Schenkt aus den Wein! [pour out the
wine]
Profundis Clamavi [endlessly we cry out]
And as the dark procession then has been fulfilled
For their god - a sacrifice
- his blood was spilled
So Death took him to mother's chest
Where he may rest...
And the weather says, it's springtime
See
the leafs of darkest green
And his screams hall in the nightly breeze
As the darkened sorrows feels
Dark are all the autumn
nights
Where mind and stars unite
Knowing forbidden wisdom
And all the things he sees
Collected in a chamber
Secrets of
astronomy
The rage in their eyes
Torches in their hands
And the power of the cross
Bringing fear to all the land
...
and darkness will come to us all!
Profundis Clamavi! [endlessly we cry out]
And as the dark procession...
Schenkt aus
den Wein! [pour out the wine]
