I cowered where the light did not reach
Knelt in a circle (of fire) that kept me safe
Safe from the light and its lethal influense
Protected from follies carred by humanity
Winds of fury whipped my sacred face
Storms of thunder danced among the clouds
The elements rage flowed in my veins
I mounted a wind of darkness and death
And I rode the wind of darkness and death
Now on blackened wings, I pass like a shadow
My name lord death, with reverence be it spoken
As the man with the scythe, I am known and feared
Clad in tragedy, I am the dirge
All mortals fear the day I call upon them
To wield my blade and reap their souls
They speak of me with shivering voice
To cross my path no living (thing) desire
Yet I come to them as a redeemer
A saviour in black that bring them rest
Feel my breath breathing down your neck
Oh, feeble mortals you are my harvest
As I ride the wind of darkness and death
Now on blackened wings, I pass like a shadow
My name lord death, with reverence be it spoken
As the man with the scythe, I am known and feared
Clad in tragedy, I am the dirge
I am the dirge hummed among mortals
I am the premonition you have felt
I bring the tidings of your departure
I carry out the cruel twist of fate
When I ride upon the winds of darkness and death
Mortals fear for the lives I have come to reap
I am he who take away yet bring thee pain
When I come with the winds of darkness and death
Life - the final conquest
Death - the eternal conqueror
