Pilgrim of the nightly spheres Behind the sleeping cascades You wander restelessly In hope of finding the gateway - to eternity Darkness your constant companion When the ancients spoke of a realm - a realm where nothing dies, but yet all is dead your visions where so clear, but yet captured in a dying world. Pilgrim of the nightly spheres, child of sin, child of the dark, yours is the monument of scorn for you've left the trail of weakness just to find loneliness "...will you ever find the gateway, will you ever reach the gateway, the gateway to eternity - to eternal life..." Pilgrim of the nightly spheres I know one night your star will ablaze in the nocturnal horizon to show me your traces in the dark

Embraced by solitude I leave this world As the last tear of blood leaves my veins, I long for harmony For the last time I look up to the nightsky And watch the stars in a blackwind dying For the last time I watch the fading of the candlelight ... and I whisper my final breath into Eternity knowing that all life ends someday Oh, may the autumnal winds carry my empty soul Into the vale of oblivion Where I shall forever wander over The fields of melancholy To be a solitary shadow out of time "Oh please let me long for silence, let me walk the path of sin, but your weepings - full of grievance. Oh, please take my hand and follow me into the night, just follow me to a place, where darkness shines so bright."

"From the kingdom of damnation we arise..." As the apocalyptic dragon flies over the land misery returns - set the world in flames Thunder and lightning gather in the nocturnal sky, the stench of corpses fills the night - we're the devil's scythe We arise in a sea of fire, holocaust - our only desire. We the tyrants of doom, the infernal spawn, the prayers for luciferian dawn. We bring you pestilence and pain In the dark lord's name we shall reign! As the apocalyptic dragon flies over tha land misery returns - set the world in flames Christianity bleeds - forevermore!!

Close your eyes and follow me to a land beyond the gates of agonizing dreams. Ride with me upon hills of martyred souls, where once blood was spilled for the one, the master ring, created in the flames of Amon Amarth. "One Ring To Rule Them All, One Ring To Find Them, One Ring To Bring Them All, And In The Darkness Bind Them." Feel the agic of the winds of wrath and walk with me on the blackened paths through Thaur-nu-fuin. Enter this world beyond all human dimensions and close the gate of life forever to unveil the secrets of this long forgotten tale of ancient glory. A tale that seemed to be lost in the hidden shadows of Mordor...

... and I still hear the sound of shattering swords, I still see the empty eyes of the fallen warriors, I still hear their screams on the wind for I am one of the ancient race, summoned by the scars of time Once I had risen amongst the Nine through a spell of cast behind the shadowwalls of Minas Morgul. Nazgul, hunters of the night, damned to search for the One, even death cannot take this heritage from me. I still roam the mighty forest of Neldoreth, like Carcharoth did in ancient times, feeling eternal emptiness inside. Like in thousands of nights before I look up to the starless skies above, where once Glaurung ruled in a silhouette of fire, and again I feel endless torture - I have failed...

In a land of never resting shadows, where I have found the essence of profound immortality. In the land of Mordor I shall wander eternally, awaiting my sunless dawn to fall into the funeral embrace, where I shall dwell in silence. Wistful I cry for the end Minas Morgul - Once my empire, Now withering in a spectral morning veil; Who can deliver me from this unbearable destiny? "Ash Nazg Durbatuluk, Ash Nazg Gimpatul, Ash Nazg Thrakatuluk, Agh Burzum - Ishi Krimpatul" A sunbeam ends my journey, dawn breaks in the east - Soon I will return into these dungeons with the nightshadows by my side... A tale that never ends!

Forgotten, the poisoned words of love Tempted by the chalice of dissolution Invoking the spirits of unholy origin A flow of orgasmic fire dwells within me Chaos is my prophecy Never to be lost again in this soulconsuming dimensions Venomous emotions of love faded away The enigma of death I've solved For my salvation is your damnation Can you see my shadow in the flickering candlelight? A shadow that offers you insight into Uziel's visions Can you feel the presence of woeful souls in this moonlight night? Somnabulists amongst a deceptive race I've seen the truth Desecration was the key that opened my eyes I am your inner tyrant Endless scorn is my revenge Chaos, my prophecy - Asphyx is thy forseen fall Asphyx is me

Mournful shadows rise, dusk spreads her wings - the tombworld longs for me I kiss the withered rose I still hold the flame that dies I drink the wine of bitterness for the last nocturnal caress Night falls again - I feel the pouring rain Melancholy - soon I will leave this void called life Solitude - as I fell the blade of my knife Death - I adore thy precious art I open my veins a last tear freezes my skin The dark sorrounds me within a veil to oblivion I entrust my spirit into death's merciless arms And another void awaits me Utopia is lost

As darkness falls for the last time I awake from my apparently infinite sleep A silver fullmoon glows on this winternight Waning into oblivion ... and I follow the northern storms that bring dusk upon the icy landscapes ... and the storms lead me to majestic forrests lakes and mountains I've never seen before Melancholy within seems eternal As I walk through the undergrowth Of these endless woods But then I see her sleeping under the dark trees - my beloved nocturnal queen And the children of the night watch over her Like the moon watches over the night As I get closer to her she awakens From her majestic sleep As she embraces me again I feel her magical attraction Together we walk the path of salvation And together with the wolves She sings her sweet serenades And with these, her majestic serenades She reaches for my black, bleeding heart Which only beats for her She kisses me with her lips of fire And this kiss covers my heart With a dismal shade of sadness And her hair of gold, waving in the wind Seems to me like the starcovered horizon Her sweet art is the key to my solitary heart And together we open the gate to infinity Into the duskimpregnated land of dreams, where our spirits shall rest eternally I look into her eyes, knowing that this moment won't last eternally ... and the sun never rises, for she is the forgotten flame engulfing my heart ... and in the black wind her shadow fades away into the melancholy of the night And again my heart is touched by an endless solitary darkness

Tempting symphonies reach me From out of the distant dark Awaking from their slumber Shadows are dancing by my side While the moonchild reflects her portrait in the sky And whispering echoes are engulfed In the obscurity of night - I welcome thee, moment of mournful splendour As the moon caresses the waveless sea And the wind sings its bitter sweet melody, My soul leaves its carnal prison To melt once again with the desolation of the night - I yearn for thee, moment of mournful splendour
