Worship of the Gods
"UBI VERO ABOLITIS QUAE VEREBATUR, ADESSE SIBI LIBERUM TEMPUS FACIENDI QUAE VELLET ADVERTIT, PECTORIS PATEFECIT ARCANA ET PLANIS ABSOLUTISQUE DECRETIS APERIRI TEMPLA ARISQUE HOSTIAS ADMOVERE ET REPARARI DEORUM STATUI CULTUM" "But when his fears were ended, and he saw that the time had come when he could do as he wished, he revealed the secrets of his heart and by plain and formal decrees ordered the temples to be opened, victims brought to the altars, and the worship of the gods restored." AMMIANUS MARCELLINUS

Fight and crush them Let's hear the cries of dying men Strive through the dust To make them feel our anger! They're so strong! The wary will prevail Nothing to fear We are the most skillful men on Earth Hold the standards! Protect the Aquilifer! The infantry gives a thrust To break their bones, to cut their throats The time which I, As well as you, have desired To prove ourselves supreme To take the glory back In Rome's name... Kill! Kill! Cornuti hold the line! Die! Die! Braccati give the slash! Kill! One by one they shall fall Under our domination! Nothing to fear When you are the best ROMA Bright, the Sun which lights our glory ROMA Ceaseless, our waves of fury ROMA Triumph is near, I take this town for me Argentoratum Countless dead bodies Lay upon the Gates of Tartarus Wounded, half dead Men who taste the depth of Acheron Kill! Kill! Cornuti hold the line! Die! Die! Braccati give the slash! Kill! One by one they shall fall Under our domination! Nothing to fear When you are the best ROMA Bright, the Sun which lights our glory ROMA Ceaseless, our waves of fury ROMA Triumph is near, I take this town for me Argentoratum Light me up!

Follow the smoke of a secret rite Walk deep into the ground Visions fight into my head, dropping tears, purify Silently the Goddess has spoken... Wake up! A shout from the army, screaming outside Takes me out from my offerings Naked, in blood, I answer the army's call This is the will of the Gods Swords hitting shields, show some respect For the Caesar and Emperor Rising from the ashes of glory now gone (I) give myself to you My family, my legion, my men The one and only place I belong I will remember this day for long United, my brothers, under the same flag We'll fight until the last man dies We shall remember this day with pride A clash of thunder all the way down to the ground It's the mark of my destiny The torc on my head shines in the silver moon If the Gods will it, we shall restore our land See them falling on their knees in sad prayer Is it a curse or a fantasy? We never kneel, we're soldiers of the ancient Gods Side by side we fight, men, Gods and Kings War is coming, we're ready to fight For the Caesar and Emperor Taking the field with a heart of fire (I) give myself to you My family, my legion, my men The one and only place I belong I will remember this day for long United, my brothers, under the same flag We'll fight until the last man dies We shall remember this day with pride You never find yourself shaking You don't know the word... FEAR Just to keep on marching you were born Or to face death in battle My family, my legion, my men The one and only place I belong I will remember this day for long United, my brothers, under the same flag We'll fight until the last man dies We shall remember this day with pride

I, Flavius Claudius Iulianus By purple death I'm seized and fate supreme High, hold my Eagle high From now on, you and I, shall be one Take my oath, by Imperial right I declare That the glory of Rome shall return Legions, with me At my command: march! Under the Gaulish Sun, I am Sent to end the Barbarian invasion Opening wide the gate of blood Crush them! Show'em the face of death as we strike We never retreat, we always fight back The kill, in red, will… Light the way to glory Light the dominions of the brave Light the sovereign legions Light the way, live to fight! May the sunlight remain When my body hits the ground From the morning of my past, you left To be reborn in me High, hold my Eagle high From now on, you and I, shall be one Take my oath, by Imperial right I declare That the glory of Rome shall return Flee! I will chase you down There's no place where you can be safe As dawn shall clear the clouds of night I pledge I shall be on your trail You don't rest and neither do I Hide your face, it's your only chance To live one more day in disgrace, in shame Till the day we meet again, Chnodomarius I shall live to fight! May the sunlight remain When my body hits the ground From the morning of my past, you left To be reborn in me

Late, awake at home Sniffing through thy Mysteries Trying to touch thy skin in fever I give myself to the fog The Goddess darkness takes me out of here The cycle is ending, thou finally can see my hands My eyes in Silver shade A nine-day journey I left behind Knowing that I'll never be the same I see the whole so clear The foe, the friend… the same lie in every face Libations in honor My secret unveiled shall remain Step aside Galileans We're no longer requesting thy flesh Cause we shall finally shine King, shine! In thy olden ray light Watch me out from the upper realms No man can stop me on my quest Now the wheel is turning The serpent met the egg My breath, led back to thy principle And through the fire I've seen life beyond my death Now I walk on a better road My King, in light, will provide me strength No matter how dark, I'll be there To your crown I'll sing My eyes in Silver shade A nine-day journey I left behind Knowing that I'll never be the same Step aside Galileans We're no longer requesting thy flesh Cause we shall finally shine King, shine! In thy olden ray light Watch me out from the upper realms No man can stop me on my quest Now the wheel is turning King, shine! Purify the soil below Lead my spirit and take me on Hear me well, from my pagan heart I sing We belong to Nature King, King Helios

Bring me satyrs wine I need to drown my pain Don't you see the clouds Rule over the day? Helios, Sun, Must be you beyond that wall No one to blame Means you are losing control Never forget The Sun will rise again Walking our streets Is the fiction of faith Divine for a few And intolerant for the rest Helios, Sun... Will you meet me in my sleep? No one to blame... True God you say It is nonsense! I say How can a man be living Under such a lie, instead of living… Living life without regrets? No one to blame... Heal my sense, my everlasting sight Breathe with me as the morning falls Do not let me go, stay with me Do not let me go unseen My air shall be yours to breathe Hold my will, hold my fragile time Do not let me go, stay with me Do not let me go unseen

Inflamed with war desire Inflexible, Filling the altars with blood Like trumpets, my voice is heard: Fire! Legions storm, embrace every town The shields sound with martial clang Helios! Shall you enlighten me at the end, When all the greatness of Rome Declines and falls Under the fiction of a dead nazarene? Gather the men, we made it this far From Lutetia Parisiorum Through the Empire to nasty Antioch Set on foot for conquest - That's right This life was given to me for a reason, I know To restore our ancient fame Listen! The song of steely weaponry rings out! Dignitas! High and proud, the eyes into the field Every clash rings in eternity Sharpen twice, the blades strike the field Every clash rings in eternity Dignitas!

I have lived long enough, having seen one thing, that love hath an end Goddess and maiden and queen, be near me now and befriend. Thou art more than the day or the morrow, the seasons that laugh or weep For these give joy and sorrow; but thou, Proserpina, sleep. Sleep, shall we sleep after all? for the world is not sweet in the end For the old faiths loosen and fall, the new years ruin and rend. Fate is a sea without shore, and the soul is a rock that abides But her ears are vexed with roar and her face with the foam of the tides. Thou hast conquered, O pale Galilean The world has grown grey from thy breath We have drunken of things Lethean And fed on the fullness of death. Clothed round with the world's desire as with raiment, and fair as the foam, And fleeter than kindled fire, and a goddess, and mother of Rome. For thine came weeping, a slave among slaves, and rejected; but she came flushed from the full-flushed wave, and imperial, her foot on the sea. In the night where thine eyes are as moons in heaven, the night where thou art Where the silence is more than all tunes, where sleep overflows from the heart, Therefore now at thy feet I abide for a season in silence. I know I shall die as my fathers died, and sleep as they sleep; even so. Thou hast conquered, O pale Galilean The world has grown grey from thy breath We have drunken of things Lethean And fed on the fullness of death. Extract from Hymn to Proserpine Swinburne, Algernon Charles (1837 - 1909)

You, Dionysus? No, that can’t be true! Bacchus, the son of Zeus I know, not you! He smells of nectar, you just smell of goats! Grape-less! The Celts pour barley down their throats, So you’re less “Bacchus” than “Back-to-the-Earth,” Your oats are tame, not wild; In flour, not fire your birth! FLAVIUS CLAUDIUS IULIANUS

Never the heat on your shoulders Felt like a burden to you From the West I came To take the war East, into the sand See? You ask for peace when you're weak If the fight is far It's easy to be brave Show yourself! How bold you look behind your walls! It's not to me But to Rome that you are answering! Never going back, I'll stand my ground Face whatever comes One step further into glory Can’t you feel it now? It's my shadow over you Long have I waited for my time Ready I am to fight! Never going back, I'll stand my ground Face whatever comes One step further into glory Come to me! I'm standing right before your walls I'll make it quick! And take to Rome the highest glory Never going back, I'll stand my ground Face whatever comes One step further into glory

Let me lay here, time is no longer mine I worship the Gods, they take me Don't cry for me, I will return When everything's gone, I'll answer Starless night When I fairly fell I saw an end What's the right thing to do? Leave my men? Leave my dreams, fade away? Self-denial Where am I? Asking... but I know the answer so well This is Phrygia, my end Did I fail? Did I fall from grace? None but me says goodbye Let me lay here, time is no longer mine I worship the Gods, they take me Don't cry for me, I will return When everything's gone, I'll answer When the Pagan Empire remembers my name Weakening By the loss of blood Tireless, isn't death a reward? I did well So... why pain remains inside, Still growing inside? Making peace I forgot what hatred did to my kin Those who followed me know well I've stood firm By the Gods you know I've struggled against them So I can die in honor Let me lay here, time is no longer mine I worship the Gods, they take me Don't cry for me, I will return When everything's gone, I'll answer When the Pagan Empire remembers my name How dare you, oh Fates, To take my life so fast and let reason fall? Hear the spears striking the shields It's the tune which takes me higher Foreseeing a dark age coming The fiction of men, shall it rule the world? Thy local creed will take all that you have Out of Galilee shall arise no prophet Another race The Spring supplies One shall fall And another shall rise And When thy mighty Oh, King Helios Touch my pale face in silence I shall return Let me lay here, time is no longer mine I worship the Gods, they take me Don't cry for me, I will return When everything's gone, I'll answer When the Pagan Empire remembers my name
