Eternal Goddess, Vampyre-Queen, I long for Thy Kiss, the Fountain of Immortality. May Thou send Scarlet Stars in the shadowy Hours of sunken Sun, so their charming Glance shall lead me into Thy fruitful Empire, where Darkness is supreme!

Night has covered the Forest with a solemn mantle, I again visit Her grave (May Her murderers hear our Threat) "Though Thy Slumber may be deep Thy weak Spirit shall not sleep and forever Thou shall dwell in the ominous Fire of this Spell. To Thee lovely Night shall deny all the Quiet of Her Sky" The North-Wind is raving through the trees and touches, roaring, the crystalline seas The Moon looks round in sweet delight in this pure mood I invoke my Bride: "Thus charming as Thy Beauty art thus bloody shall my Wrath them part Oh, golden Strings of Ecstasy encharm us with Thy Melody! So that a Shape of Her may rise and our wild Passion never dies" A dazzling Light spawns out a Vision of my Dearest: "Understand these Oracle-Words of mine and our Embrace (shall be divine) When Skies will be fired with Crimson Cloud all shall be Witness of me enshroud!"

Shadows of the Undead cover the Way beyond into the darkest of all Realms A Guidance to the shining Temple of Thee, oh mightiest and most lustful of all Queens Gleaming Emeralds enlighten my Path in these precious Halls of dark - sexual Beauty The River of Tears Floating in Silence beneath my Throne now filled through my Despair as well Whilst I kneel down "I ask about Thy Wilt" "My Dearest died through holy Hand Without Her all is lost I thirst for Her, the sombre Enchantment of my Soul" "I feel the Honesty of Thy Words Thy Curtain of Vengeance starts falling with the final Rise of the December Moon Resurrect Thy Desired through Her Murderer's Blood." "Thou art Leader of the Wolves, Majesty under the Nightsky but doomed to exist in eternal Darkness! Whether Thy Love is strong enough it may never die! Thou shall kiss and embrace as Immortals! Plant these unearthly Flowers on Her Grave and see them grow as the Portal to a new Existence!" I shall take Revenge and encharm my Beloved again through this royal Promethean Gift This is my final Desire, the Sword of Fulfillment "So prepare now to receive my Kiss, the Touch of Eternity!" I await...

Thy Beauty in Black Candles' Light is the dearest Vision to my Spirit "Thou art - the shining Diamond of my Crown" Harvester I will be of the forbidden Fruits, growing there so deliciously in the Gardens of Thy Breast In my dark-desirous Dreams I see us in Autumn Fields, feeling October's magic Breath "Thou art the Flower that never shall wither" The Reflection of Thy Beauty in the dancing Candleflames creates Memories so sweet, but cold dark as Thy Black Hair, like the Raven-Face of Night Thy Neck is like sculpture-made Thy milky Bosom the loveliest Nature ever formed "Sanguis Vita est! (et) Tenebrae Desponsam meam!" Enchant me eternally with thy voluptuous forms as thy witching fire still burns in me

The flaming Passion in Thy Eyes fills my Heart with Melancholy "Beloved One, embrace me, I thirst for Thy pale Skin" In Remembrance to our final Kiss under the Shadows of the eternal Trees, planted when Raven lost their Seed out of his Claws "Oh come, Beloved One, embrace me, I thirst for Thy marble-pale Skin"
The Glance of the Red Wine, so lovely in dim Starlight Only the Moon is Witness of my Revenge "Thee robbed me my most precious, so await my sinister Lust Lycanthropia, I hunt the Night the Tears of Thine for me like Showers of Gold" Thy feeble Screams create the Mood of Symphonies to my Ears For the Blood of the Weak, who took away my Dearest, is Water of the eternal Life floating through my Veins Like a Shark in deep-blue Waters I dive into Black Sky, tasting Thy Blood "Ah, strengthen me mortal Creatures!" Whilst I feel the Hour arriving when lunar Light will caress the Grave of my Beloved with Resurrection Thou feel Death's Claws Death's pure Claws

"Cold, sad and lonely is my endless seeming sleep down here in this Grave, where Love and Death must part, only the Magic of these Flowers keeping my Soul alive" The Queen of the Nightsky has risen to bewitch me like Bats on evil Wings I fly through Her Kingdom So that the Shroud's pure white may shine in Purple (Yet) the Brightness of another dying Sun then Doomsday will be done "Blood is Life!" This Wine, as sweet as Thy starlike Beauty, my golden Fruit on the Tree of Passion and Delight

Thy mighty Words, Vampyric Mater, Queen of the Undead, still evoke my Mind "Soon my Enchantress shall be Seraphim to my Throne, built of Immortality" As Spy in Darkness I see the weak Creature break the Shadows falling on Her Grave My Bloodthirst is of the Wolves, who gather, what Pride, to an impressive Parade The Purity of the Wintermoon strengthens me whilst Vengeance is mine My hunting Fangs - his Mirror of mortal Decay His Blood drips down like the Grains in Reaper's Sandglass... the once naked Flowers dress! Ecstatic Love or bitter Tragedy? Out of a whirling Storm my Bride ascends "Thou were mine, Thou art mine and Thou shall be mine throughout all Eternities!" Now I touch Thy marble Breasts, shall enchant Thy secret Garden and drown in the Lakes of Thy Beauty "So reunite with me and feel the Passion Thou get crowned with through my Vampyre Kiss..."

As Darkness drowns the Landscape my Time it is to rise Mighty Ruler of the stormy Night Sanguinaire Lust of me, the Pale Nocturnal Majesty Evocative Chants from the Shadow - Kingdom As I fly into the Night my Realm of grotesque Beauty touches Eternity A Choir through this dark Forest where Light never was to be seen only the shining Jewels of my Sceptre, protected by the Raven with the golden Wings The Wolves guard the Path to my Castle Pale Nocturnal Majesty, come await my Breath in Thy Neck... Black Kiss
