Seventh Gate

Prayer for the Lion Child

Seventh Gate


Silently the moon completes her movement
So lovely in the air, in the air
So noisely the sun will end his movement
But don't you dare, don't you dare

Dark is the heart of eternity
Who wants to will reach it
Through her masters angel, through the moon
Through the dark past, not too soon

One in life and death, highest desire,
deepest sorrow
Honey on your lips you'll wade in blood

He who creates a sea of stars for a game,
to laughter will reduce our name
Garments will shred in the whirls of time
with rings and pearls to entwine

One in life and death, highest desire,
deepest sorrow
Honey on your lips you'll wade in blood

See the lion-child swim and the moon is turning
See the lion-child fly and our souls are yearning
The angels kiss tastes honey-sweet
The willing has end, the will is reached

One in life and death, highest desire,
deepest sorrow
Honey on your lips you'll wade in blood
