Bound to Eternity
The quintessence embalms forever, For the rose that bloomed on earth, Solve et Coagula operates, It's the dusk of the Dead Head ! The subtle is detached from the vulgar, Mercury and Sulfur remain, The body is ready for dissection, Calcination takes place One burns the petals, The other the bones, They are bound by an oath They are the Red King and the White Queen together, allying Glorious in a perfect wedding, Order substance and sublimate spirit, balancing Nature, and its generous gift of a being, Like a drop of infinite power Life, character and body Bound to eternity Salt shimmers with a thousand crystals, Water reveals the envelope, It communes with spirit and quicksilver, It ends like a scarlet birth ! It heals all cracks, resurrects the Universe For the glory of mankind The Opus Magnum comes to fruition, Nourished by the celestial fire The golden egg Is in gestation stage, For an embodied marriage They are the Red King and the White Queen together, allying Glorious in a perfect wedding, Order substance and sublimate spirit, balancing Nature, and its generous gift of a being, Like a drop of infinite power Life, character and body Bound to eternity
