Serpent Rites Lyrics


The memories carved in stone

Buried int he darkest roots...

...of Yggdrassil

Forgotten lore of cosmic rights

Runes as old as the world itself

Deepest thoughts

Consciousness spread its glorious wings

Over the highest mountains

And forgotten forests

Yet again, we see the

Infinite cycle of life and death

The essence of all

Forest rise its wings

Feathers made of autumn leaves

And bellow the darkest paths

Only the great serpent knows

The beginning and the end

We call upon the...

Ancient snake

Mentioned in the primeval chapters

Soul of the norse realm - Ragnarok Wyrm

The unnamed destroyer of Eden

King of serpents that wraps

The highest peaks of fortold Tatra

He is life

He is death

He is evil spirit avenger

Bright tempter of first men

Infinite Uroborus and

Nature own creation

The beginning and the end

Only the great serpent knows

The mountains are far away

Too far to see the light

So he brings the fruit

Forbidden flame banned by the gods

Eyes were open, mind was released

Free will was born from the ashes

And dust, the way, that was

The begging and will be the end

Now after many dark ages

And cold winters humanity forgot about

His shimmering presence

Once more long forgotten ancient rights

Shall be remembered with the stimulated awareness

"On śmiercią z życiem wymieszaną, władca rozumu,

dusz zapomnianych pasterz i śędzia.

Z czerni zrodzony – światłem opętany.

Trwa i jest, choć go nie ma!"

Since now, the gleam of will is gone

We all sit on the throne of sorrow

Dressed in black nausea, or we sleep

In the cradle of neverending trance

In the realm without doors

Awake us, dragon

Awake us, snake

Awake great wyrm, lightbringer!

Let the serpent cast away our spirit

From the depths and realms of endless

Cold void - Ginnungagap!

He is life

He is death

He is evil spirit avenger

Bright tempter of first men

Infinite flame and

Nature own creation
