Moon reigns the sky The wind, it seems to cry A column of hooded brothers Reciting texts of their forefathers Fires begin to rise Dark figure in disguise The prayers have been answered The flame, it thrills and almost dances The moon of tribal rites To get the blessing of the sight And under pale and ghostly light Witness the spirits of the night Runes are being carved Bones leave many scars Drops of newborn’s blood Spilled on a metal stud The figure steps from fire He shall grant them their desire Their wish is being spoken The bond is never broken The moon of tribal rites To get the blessing of the sight And under pale and ghostly light Witness the spirits of the night The fire has died out The air brings no sound The pagan night is gone Cast out by the sun Cultists start to spread The sacrificed lie dead Left to rot and wither Until the next rite happens hither The moon of tribal rites To get the blessing of the sight And under pale and ghostly light Witness the spirits of the night
