Εσένα καλώ Ουρανία, Χθονία και Εναλία!
Συ που κατέχεις τα κλειδιά όλου του κόσμου, συ που στο πέρασμά σου καταχθόνια σκυλιά αλυχτούν, δώσε μου την απεριόριστη σοφία σου, δώσε σάρκα και οστά στις φαντασιώσεις μου
Μάγισσα φαρμακίδα και φώσφορε, που φωτίζεις όλα τα σκοτεινά σταυροδρόμια, γίνε ο οδηγός μου στα μονοπάτια των νεκρών και ο αρωγός μου στη γνωση
Μητερα Εκάτη, Mαύρη Μητέρα...
Υποκλίνομαι σε σένα κάτω απο τον αστροφώτιστο ουρανό, αιώνια Βασίλισσα της Νύχτας, Προπυλαία και Πυρσοφόρε, οδηγησε το χερι μου, προστάτιδα των μαγισσών, κουροτρόφε νύμφη, βαδίζω μαζί σου ως το τέλος, εκεί που το φως παυει να υπάρχει, τρίμορφη Μητερα!

She Who Splits The Earth

Emerged from swirling aeons
To reach beyond the prison of flesh
Encumbered with eyes bound to see
To view through the ravenous bliss
Exalted amidst the cosmic wilderness
To rip the fabric of the spheres
To twist and turn the blade in the wound of time
And drink deep from within!
As eternity writhes in the flood of ecstatic scarlet
Break the shackles that tie me down to earth!
O Queen of Earth, Heaven and Sea
Mistress of Death and Rebirth!
Light the crossroads before me so I may see
Across the sunless span of skies and bottomless seas
And as the stars above blaze in their undying fate
Guide me below - through adamantine gates
In the rhythm of my yearning heart - within and without!

Behold the knowledge ripped from the world's dying heart
In white moon's dark and black moon's light
Through waters of blindness and fires of sight
Watchers of the great below shall carve out the mark
Cry aloud The Fallen One's unhallowed might!
On the wings of divine fires I shall soar high
To break through the firmaments dead eyes!
O great Trident of the Crossroads
Pierce through profane doubt!
Behold the ecstasy of fire and flesh
Dive deep into the starless depths!

Mare Tenebrarum

Oh how I yearn to gaze into your bottomless eyes
For I am become sea without shore and a night without stars
To calm the anxious heart with comfort of your infinite light
To dive deep into your sacred blight and bask in glory of unending night
And as my vessel's fires burn bright
Ancient winds guide me far
Where no man has gone before - to the blackness below and beyond!
To the shores of this ancient night
Where black waves crash into whirlpools of time
To the edge of all that is known
To the roadless paths and beyond!
And as space and time transfigures
Come forth swirling in phantom light
Let the subterranean streams erupt and transform into waters of life
With yearning spirit and will unbroken
From depths of sea of night I ask:
Thrust deep your dagger of truth and bury your venomous flames within the wound!

O mistress of ancient night
Grant me the gift of unclouded sight
Oracle of luminous dark and bearer of nocturnal light
You, the offspring of starry skies
Treading the shadowless nights
And heavens which tremble before your might
Come forth, o will without form
Whirling in flames that transform
To you I am sworn
To you I am sworn!
Make me a vessel of your unhallowed Teitanic blood!
O great cosmic soul!
You who negate all space and time
You who shine so bright even the stars pale before you
Reveal to me the pathways of your divine guidance
And allow me to gaze upon thy precious light
As subterranean streams erupt
As darkness swarms and void calls
I ask - emerge from luminous dark!

Of Divine Divergence
06:36
|
|||
|
O source of all
O bearer of wandering flames
O heaven and earth - unbound by lucid frame
Bursting with conscious rays
Painfully I yearn on your path divine
To be consumed by the wakeful fire
With holy voice I call on Thee -
Noumenic, Harmonic, Chaotic, Chthonic!
Lead me beyond the veil of night
Where the shadows of the unjudged reside
O Holy Mother of oppositions hear my plea!
O may I live all the daytime in faith and in might divine
And in holy fire may I die every night of thine!

Ignis in Tenebris
04:30
|

|
In nomine matris
In nomine reginæ
In nomine clarissimæ essent stella
Soul's ascending
Thy Torches' flame burning in me
O mutinous star!
Grant me light and shine through me
O Queen of Death!
Emerge and bring terror no mortal heart can bear
Engulf me, o boundless Plutonian night
For I am a son of the Trident!

Ars Magna Umbrae Poland
Orphean manifestation heralding visions of blissful cosmic pestilence.
One-man esoteric black metal entity.
If you like Ars Magna Umbrae, you may also like:

One of the greatest black metal albums ever!

Stare Into Death And Be Still
by Ulcerate
supported by 76 fans who also own “Apotheosis”
The album description mentions an “emotional apex.” That’s really the difference between Stare and the band’s previous albums. Ulcerate was always supremely technically proficient. I just didn’t care all that much. Their growth has come from making music you will feel.

Söngvar elds og óreiðu
by Misþyrming
supported by 71 fans who also own “Apotheosis”
Swirling guitars, furious drums, vocals that at the same time howl from infinite distance and are right up in your head; everything put into dissonant form with the help of unconventional songwriting. This album is my personal key to the icelanding black metal madness that I've ignored for way too long!
