Therion

Litany of the Fallen

Therion


Outcast down from heaven
From grace holy severed
Return now forever!
Echoes from the past inferno
Climbing on a new crescendo!
Gateways, light forbidden
Wisdom to us given
Reclaim what was hidden!
Those tongues that could not be silenced
Carried on our voices rising!

Back in the days of Jared
The silhouettes of angels
Upon Mount Hermon gathered
As brethren, as forsaken

Dragon Mother rise
Spread your wings this night
And fly to alight the star of sin
Sharpen the claws again
Bringing rapture inhumane and fly
A new day will begin
All your wisdom bring, thy kingdom born within!

This day, the beginning
Speaking of the ending
Of times soon descending!
Tread now on the sacred meadows
Covered by your ancient shadows!
Beauty veiled in darkness
The Sun shall devour –
Enter night time hour!
Insight to your true disciples
Once more to derive from Qliphoth!

They would become the Watchers
Grigori, Shemyaza
To wield the arts forbidden
And drink the wine from Naamah

Dragon Mother rise
Spread your wings this night
And fly to alight the star of sin
Sharpen the claws again
Bringing rapture inhumane and fly
A new day will begin
All your wisdom bring, thy kingdom born within!

Dragon Mother rise
Spread your wings this night
And fly to alight the star of sin
Sharpen the claws again
Bringing rapture inhumane and fly
A new day will begin
All your wisdom bring, thy kingdom born within!
Dragon Mother rise
Spread your wings this night
And fly to alight the star of sin
Sharpen the claws again
Bringing rapture inhumane and fly
A new day will begin
All your wisdom bring, thy kingdom born within!

Come forth, Imamiah!
Come through, O Armaros!
Come forth, Amazarak!
Come through, O Forneus!
Come forth, Asmodeus!
Come through, O Focalor!
Come forth, Sathariel!
Come through, O Gomory!
Come forth, Chazaqiel!
Come through, O Hagenti!
Open the gates!
