Nocturnal Funeral |
| In the fields of death at an hour of destruction the wind blew cold |
| A vast field of tombstones and cenotaphs all moisture-stained |
| As I walked across the field I noticed a human circle formation |
| Standing at the edge of a yet uncovered grave deep in mourn |
| (ch.:) |
| Buried and forgotten |
| In the dark and cold |
| In the moisty ground |
| Burial at night |
| Funeral |
| In the name of the father, the son and the antichrist |
| Ashes to ashes and dust to dust to reign in death |
| From the innermost depths of the open sepulcher |
| I heard a human cry for life and freedom |
| (ch.) |
| «I was mortal but I am fiend, I was merciless |
| My teeth shatter as I speak to you |
| Yet it’s not with the chilliness of the night |
| But this hideousness is insufferable» |
| (ch.) |
| That deep, hollow, inhuman voice echoed |
| Echoed down from the pits of the uncovered grave |
| The former human voice was now transformed |
| The former human voice is now the voice of the fiend |
| (ch.) |
| (bridge:) |
| Behold the vast formations of a funeral in the dark |
| Behold with fear the signs after a nocturnal funeral |
| (repeat bridg) |
