Artist: dimmu borgir
Song: the night masquerade
Album: Enthrone Darkness Triumphant
Year: 1997
A scarlet sunset
the threshold to nightplay
A sinful oath is to be sworn
A beckoning bloodlust
among the seekers
Tyrranic hunger yearns
A gathering in flames and fires-
Devil's daughters dance
Scourged in filth, obscene and lewd-
Longing for dark desires
The nocturnal beast appears
in an evil despotic shape
Expectant watching gracelessly
before demanding the sluts of lust
(the Beast)
"Come forth harlots, let's begin!"
(the Beast approaches: )
"Rise and give praise in front of Me
and receive eternal life from Me!
Welcome my spirit in jonour of Me!
So drink of the blood I provide you
and you shall all forever wander in the shadows of death...!
(the chanting whores: )
"Oh yes, Master! Let us receive
Thine offer and drink with Thee!
And become a part of Thy realm
with lust, sex and sodomy-
for we are those who seek life eternally...!
(the Beast: )
"Blood is life and it shall be all ours!"
