The Cold Mystic Winds of Nanakanisurra (Dwelling South in the Crimson Desert: Roba el Khaliyeh) Lyrics


Part I - Prelude: Penetrate Thy Sword in Hands of Athame

In this dark and mystical hour of the night, does the goddess Hecate reign supreme? / Kiss the blade of Athame and return to thy alter

Repeat the words! / Light the fire, stand to the North, and drink the wine, return to thy alter / O Asarial, archangel of Neptune and ruler of clairvoyant powers / I ask thee now to open my third eye and show me this hidden light / Let me see my future, moon of silver! / Let me see thy past! / Let me perceive the divine, O moon of silver! / I see the vast universe, O moon of winter! Blessed be by smoke and bell, element of thw Alk / Blessed by wand and the ancient flame, guide ye on the left pathway, face to the North, with salt and sacred sword, I shall concentrate and invoke to thee, under the sacred names of the winds / This symbol of Earth, this symbol of Water, as thy symbol of Winter / O spirits above. O spirits of Air, I light the candles red.

Part II - Abeyance: Commanding Empires of Hidden Light

I invoke and call upon thee, o mother goddess, creatress life and soul of the infinite universe / By candle flame, incense smoke, Do I invoke to bless this rite? / I bless this circle in the divine name of the gods. / Grant me admittance in this consecrated circle of candlelight, promise to respect and obey thy law, and never reveal the craft secrets / O goddess, queen of all witches, I do now open my heart and soul to thee, so mote it be.

I invoke and call upon thee, O great horned god of the Pagans, Lord of the green woodlands and winter winds, by candle flame, incense and smoke / Do I invoke thee to bless this rite?

O great horned god of death / And all that comes after, who is know as: Cernunnos, Attis, Pan, Daghda, Frey, Odin, Lupercus / By the power of the universe and by the ancient and mystical element of water, I concentrate and dedicate this crystal as a magical tool of healing / Queen of the underworld and protectress of all witches; come now into this circle of fire / As I do perform this rite, in your honor!

Part III - Epilogue: Paradisiacal Thoughts of Our Goddess Reborn

Thy equinox sabbat is blessed be this sabbat circle in the divine name of Ostara, ancient goddess of spring, in her sacred name, this sabbat now begins / Light the incense! / The sun has crossed the celestial equator, giving the sun and the moon equal hours, goddess spring is reborn, divine god of darkness! / Divine gods of Light! / Powers I celebrate on this night.

The moon, stars, sea, and earth / We celebrate the sun's rebirth, on this dark and long night, we burn the sacred candles bright!
