Translation of the song lyrics Flesh Falls, No Ghost Lifts - In Twilight's Embrace

Flesh Falls, No Ghost Lifts (original)

The pendulum swings
And with each swing a longer shadow is cast
We belong to the world of matter
And as dust we will become one with the ground
Seizing days, taking all for granted
Bred to consume, not to experience
All surface, no substance
We’re leaving but ash behind
Like a nebula we haunt
Like a whirlwind of randomness blind
Traceless for the world to come
Transient forevermore
Flesh falls, no ghost lifts
Terror, fear, repulsion and awe
Shall fill the hearts of men
When death’s sickle is risen
To bring the ultimate orgasm of life
As climax begets climax
Iron is driven through flesh
Teeth decay, body turns pale
Cadaverine scent fills the air
Miotamy się za życia jak dusza
Co nie może wyzwolić się od ciała*
A ciało ciąży niby brzemię
Trudno odrzucić świata zalotne uroki
Przepędzić jak mary, w nieistnienie
Gdy za jakiś czas przyjdzie nam spotkać śmierć
Gdzieś na skraju życia, które dobiega końca
Czy będziemy w stanie spojrzeć jej prosto w oczy
W których odbije się to, co po sobie zostawiliśmy?
Vanitas in excelsis
Et omnia vanitas

Flesh Falls, No Ghost Lifts (translation)

The pendulum swings
And with each swing a longer shadow is cast
We belong to the world of matter
And as dust we will become one with the ground
Seizing days, taking all for granted
Bred to consume, not to experience
All surface, no substance
We’re leaving but ash behind
Like a nebula we haunt
Like a whirlwind of randomness blind
Traceless for the world to come
Transient forevermore
Flesh falls, no ghost lifts
Terror, fear, repulsion and awe
Shall fill the hearts of men
When death's sickle is risen
To bring the ultimate orgasm of life
As climax begets climax
Iron is driven through flesh
Teeth decay, body turns pale
Cadaverine scent fills the air
We struggle like a soul in life
What cannot free itself from the body *
And the body is like a burden
It's hard to dismiss the world of flirtatious charms
Drive like a mary to non-existence
When we meet death in some time
Somewhere on the edge of a life that is ending
Will we be able to look her straight in the eye
Which reflect what we left behind?
Vanitas in excelsis
Et omnia vanitas
