The Grim Palace Leaden once but now grey - green Because of the years King Sarrob's tower rise? In the background dark, thick clouds In the foothills of an inaccessible mountain? Which leans and its shadow covers A dead forest that? ? the imbeciles has burned Streams full of lichen and moss? Full of frogs which with their voice. Like being the ones? ? who centuries ago listened To the mystical ritual? ? of the people that glorified The dark lords like being? ? a message for those to come, And those to dethrone. Shadow and silence wrap? ? like a shroud (the everlasting) castle, the king's tower You hear only the wind blast Like an eternal conqueror? ? with his whip!!! Whipping walls rising Wishing to demolish Wishing to liberate souls Worth of eternal peace!!! Here then lives a love The king looking at the palaces (frescoes). Looking at the unspeakable figures Which slide on damp walls!! (The) nights that the full moon call you (to its kingdom) Recollecting mystical rites Sung for them who live beyond (galaxies) Beyond the forest of stars!! Sing the strange hymn - sing the hypnotic psalm!! The damned king Sarrob The ruler whose dreams Are occupied by full of nightmares His tortured soul seeks for salvation!! His thoughts deep in bottomless wells His will dead and incapable In front of the kingship of his wild rush Like a living dead who looks for that Which will bring him back to life Like a wandering soul in The labyrinth of knowledge Seeking for the key of eternal truth! Leaden once but now grey - green Because of the years King Sarrob's tower rise? In the background dark, thick clouds In the foothills of an inaccessible mountain? Which leans and its shadow covers A dead forest that? ? the imbeciles had burned Streams full of lichen and moss? Full of frogs which with their voice!!! Sing the strange hymn! Sing the hypnotic psalm! 4. Darkness Falling Shadows without faces Memories without emotions Lust, desire, rain, terror, A lake of fallen feelings In your evil mind!!!! Sometimes I feel the grief From any creatures upon The altar of sacrifice!!! Sometimes I fell the fear When darkness falling!!!! 5. Creation Of Satan Mind that shadow That might follow you Look at her fiery eyes Listen to her whispering Whispers of madness!! An infernal creature A miasma an impious being Some abominable Creation of Satan!!! Mind those eyes The eyes of a nightmare Fall in the arms Of despair!!! She is waiting - beyond any concept of time To give you - the kiss of paranoia To drop you - to the darkness of loss To worship you - like an infernal god!

The Sign Of Eternal Curse So many different images In the loneliness that kills Waiting the time to strike The clock of the galaxy to strike The beats to be heard!!!!! In dreamy kingdoms In forgotten castles In obscure ruins I look for the key Of the secret dragon!! I look for it in virgin paths In oblique cliffs In unholy graves In secret catacombs Which oblivion has erased From my memory!!!! That which brings happiness - to others That which brings the end - to me!!! Ancient sign that rises Natural phenomena that awake Contracts signed by blood Last wills never seen, under the light!!! The last prophet has foretold it But it was forgotten through time The dark wizards saw it But nobody believed them Because the lived in the time of darkness! Perhaps some day We will be free from the curse The secret will be revealed And future will be present, By bringing back the time!!! I am surrounded by incorrigible scenes Rustle of leaves without wind Hope without luck Waiting to meet you My eternal destiny But he won't let you Aw he knows the dark secret!! Me will be waiting for the sign In the sky, the sea, The four winds, the hades, The abyssig horizon... Where ever it - will be revealed... Where ever it - will be revealed... It must!!! It must!!! 7. A Vision Of Nameless Soul Far from the eternal horizons Far from the gates of sleep Guarded by unspeakable demons (Where) I lived endless lives (Where) I beheld the pale moon of sorrow (Where) my agony ran away like a howl out of my mouth (Where) my eyes were petrified by fear!! I roam for centuries over the vast oceans Under the fierce black clouds Torn by lightnings and thunders I saw the eternal kingdoms rose!!!! I ran like a wolf Under enormous trees of primordial forests Where the leaves rustling Cause a strange chill Knowing that sometime? ? it will appear You feel its shadow and its grotesque sight You are like a hunted animal At the mercy of the ruthless predator!!!! I traveled over snowy mountains I was hearing screaming of pleasure and terror When the night covered them and the sky As a sweet lover, kissed their peaks I crossed dead rivers And out of cursed lakes - I saw!!!! - life!!! I walked into vast deserted palaces In endless chambers I scrutinize occult frescoes My tear was petrified by looking At strange figures!!! Everlasting melancholy, everlasting loneliness Everlasting pain, everlasting blasphemy! I saw life rose from the water, I saw the truth I didn't wish to know!!! I heard hysterical cries Of invisible demons Rose out of deep green swamp In the vertigo of eternity. How insuperable is my spirit's sin How huge the size of my condemnation No salvation I can find I couldn't even remember I couldn't even describe I wish I could die - to forget -!!! Everlasting melancholy, everlasting loneliness, Everlasting pain, everlasting blasphemy!!!! 8. Emerging From The Immortals 9. The King Of Asine We looked all morning around the castle Starting from the shaded side, There where the sea Green and without luster - breast of a slain peacock. Received us like time without an opening in it Veins of rock dropped down from high above Twisted vines, naked, many - branched, coming alive!!!! Hollow in the light Like a dry jar in dug earth At the water's tough, while the eye following them Struggled to escape the tiresome rocking, Losing strength continually On the sunny side a long open beach And the light striking diamonds on the huge walls. No living thing, the wild doves gone And the king of Asine, whom we've been Trying to find for two years now, Unknown, forgotten by all, even by homer, Only one word in the Iliad and that uncertain, Thrown here like the gold burial mask You touched it, remember it's sound?? Hollow in the light Like a dry jar in dug earth The same sound that our oars make in the sea The king of Asine, a void under the mask Everywhere with us, everywhere with us, Under a name: "Ασιυην τε... Ασιυην τε... " And his children statues and his desires The fluttering of birds, and the wind In the gaps between his thoughts, And his ships anchored in a vanished port, Under the mask... a void!!! Behind the large eyes the curved lips, the curls Carved in relief on the gold cover Of our existence!!!! A dark spot that you see traveling like a fish In the dawn calm of the sea. A void everywhere with us And the bird that flew away last winter With a broken wing a bode of life, And the young woman who left to play With the dogteeth of summer, And the soul that sought the lower world Squeaking, and the country like a large Plane - leaf swept a long by the torrent Of the sun with the ancient monuments And the contemporary sorrow... sorrow!!! Shield bearer, the sun climbed warring And from the depths of the cave A startled bat, hit the light As an arrow hits a shield: "Ασιυην τε... Ασιυην τε..." Could that be the king of Asine. And the poet lingers, looking at the stones, And asks himself, does there really exist Among these ruined lines, edges, points, Hollows and curves, does there really exist Here where one meets the path of rain, Wind and ruin, does there exist The movement of the face, shape of the Tenderness!!!! Of those who've shrunk so strangely In our lives, Those who remained the shadow of waves And thoughts with the seas boundlessness, Or perhaps no, nothing is left but the weight, The nostalgia for the weight of A living existence!!! Shield bearer, the sun climbed warring, And from the depths of the cave A startled bat, hit the light As an arrow hits a shield: "Ασιυην τε... Ασιυην τε..." Could that be the king of Asine!!!! There where we now remain unsubstantial Bending like the branches of a Terrible willow - tree heaped in? Permanent despair While the yellow current slowly Carries down rushes up - rooted In the mud? ? image of a form that The sentence? ? to everlasting bitterness Has turned to marble the poet a void!!! Behind the large eyes the curved lips The curls, carved in relief on the Cold cover of our existence!!! A dark spot that you see Traveling like a fish In the dawn calm of the sea. A void everywhere with us And the bird that flew away last winter With a broken wing abode of life. We've been searching for so carefully On this acropolis Sometimes toughing with our fingers His touch upon the stones. The king of Asine, a void under the mask Everywhere with us, everywhere with us, Under a name: "Ασιυην τε... Ασιυην τε..." And his children statues and His desires the fluttering Of birds!!! Shield bearer, the sun climbed warring, And from the depths of the cave, A startled bat, hit the light As an arrow hits a shield: "Ασιυην τε... Ασιυην τε..." Gould that be the king of Asine!!! King of Asine, king of Asine!!! 10. Spirit Of The Tomb 11. Angel Of Revenge I call (summon) you the unborn The lord of the night The ruler of the abyss. I call (summon) you through The silence of the viper The crying of the dead The pain of an injured cat!!! Through the mystic passage In the land of dead Trip to another dimension (Where) meet the kings of elements (Where) they define the power of gods!!! (Where) they define the power of gods!!! "He who once was an outcast More villainous than divas guts We appeal to you now, Send the angel of revenge!!!" Behind the crystal dreams Where revenge causes victims Among innocent and guilty. Incorporeal figures Get out of the shadow Leading the dance of immortals Spirits, fires, lightnings!!! I'm always seeking salvation Nevertheless I end up To everlasting isolation. Archetypes of ancient rituals And mystic, apocryphal knowledge, Belief of some kingdom Lost in centuries!!! My eyes never saw The Promised Land My look wanders In dark places, unholy and abyssic!!!! And when time stops And the sunbeams Pass the gates Of the dark kingdom, Of the folds of the mind Covered with webs, Then all the beauty, Will overflow, And the hope Of a suffering world!!! My eyes never saw The Promised Land My look wanders In dark places, unholy and abyssic!!!! Send the Angel of Revenge!!!!
