Minas Morgul Lyrics


Darkness is ravening within

The black tower of sorcery,

Where brooding spires oversee

These ghastly courtyards ebony…

Necromantic banners fly high

In the lands where hope and daylight die

Through haunted spectral topiaries

Soporiferous deadly mist…

Come back black winds murder the stars!

Come back - back to Minas Morgul!

Benighted figures dance beneath

An eerie moon’s mystic eclipse

Morgul demons and Nazgul knights

With loathsome songs now praise the Eye…

Cruel arts appease perverse desire

Painting shrines of bone whereon crimson

Anguished blood of sacrifice anon

Grimly stains the (once) holy marble halls…

Come back black winds murder the stars!

Come back - back to Minas Morgul!

“And lo! There stand the Nine – with hands upraised they embrace the moonlit sky… Where sunlight fails and flowers die fearsome cries echo in the night summoning the Lidless Eye…”
