Therion - Litany Of The Fallen

Outcast down from heaven,
from grace holy severed –
return now forever!
Echoes from the past inferno climbing on a new crescendo!
Gateways, light forbidden,
wisdom to us given –
reclaim what was hidden!
Those tongues that could not be silenced carried on our voices rising!

Back in the days of Jared
the silhouettes of angels
upon Mount Hermon gathered
as brethren, as forsaken.

Dragon Mother rise, spread your wings this night and fly
to alight the star of sin.
Sharpen the claws again bringing rapture inhumane and fly,
a new day will begin.
All your wisdom bring, thy kingdom born within!

This day, the beginning
speaking of the ending
of times soon descending!
Tread now on the sacred meadows covered by your ancient shadows!
Beauty veiled in darkness
the sun shall devour –
enter night time hour!
Insight to your true disciples once more to derive from Qliphoth!

They would become the Watchers –
Grigori, Shemyaza,
to wield the arts forbidden
and drink the wine from Naamah.

Come forth, Imamiah!
Come through, O Armaros!
Come forth, Amazarak!
Come through, O Forneus!
Come forth, Asmodeus!
Come through, O Focalor!
Come forth, Sathariel!
Come through, O Gomory!
Come forth, Chazaqiel!
Come through, O Hagenti!
