As jewels of a marble kind A curtain of black fell like rain Of Hag the dusk awaken the dead And the sun bled away
Eu oiço o crepusculo cantar São os filhos da noite que em melodias obscuras Desejam o luar com paixão e ansiedade E que com ódio amaldiçoam a luz
Aghast the sun hides Ra ashamed The ominous vulture screams And an ebbing light is wrung by nightfall Eden is in ruins, flames of carmine glow in midnight skies Reflections in the waters as a dance of shadows In pale horizons the moon lay hidden beneath a cloud And thrive to dominate — Ate queen of the dead
Cold frost falls from a pallored sky A shadded funeral firmament as horizon The twilight of a sun through the wail of dusk As the moon lay hidden beneath a cloud And the crow wept and so did the sun Sharing tears of blood like the sweetest wine In choir the breed of the night sing forth the dark Of the singing dusk to welcome the eternal night So by Autumn leaves the queen is crowned The glowing scythe through fogs of funeral reaping life
Dawn be fearful of the disgrace of an ebbing sun Hidden beneath a cloud a black moon brings forth chaos
Held the jewels of atrocity On streams of crystal dreams in slumber At dawn the sleep, by dusk they haunt The children of the damned And let immortality kiss the skin of Lilith As the deathly Ereshkigal walks the Yaruu Diva of black vests empossed and seductive might In feasts of ambrosia and orgies for the gods
”Depressa, depressa ó dragões da noite! Que a manhã possa descobrir o olho do corvo”
”E agora secretas e negras bruxas da meia-noite?” Shakespeare
Like an harpia, the betraying face of an angel Vulture in hunting fashion, fallen from the Zenith Yggdrasil, the nest of Fenris, Hel goddess of Elvidnir Night and day are nine from Asgard
As the Górgona bathes in crimson infernal lakes Of sibilant serpents and horrors that descend to the abysmal lands A petreal image in the Eternal night At the doors of Ishtar the decline of an empire
”A não ser que a Górgona saindo dos lagos infernais Armada de horrores e caracóis de serpentes sibilantes Me torne, pela visão monstruosa, Numa imagem pétrea na noite Eterna.” Homer
And listen to the singing dusk As the moon lay hidden beneath a cloud The ominous vulture screams To poison the ebbing light... forever doomed As jewels of a death painted red Like a curtain of raining blood Hag the moon, queen of the dead Bleeding the sun away... forever Hidden beneath a cloud a black moon brings forth chaos
