OLD FUNERAL LYRICS

1. Haunted

When an heir is born, he is heard to mourn
And when ought is to befall
That ancient line in the pale of moonshine

He walks from all to hall
His form you may trace, but not his face
'tis shadowed by his cowl
But his eyes may be seen from the folds between
And they seem of a parted soul

Say nought to thim as he walks the hall
And he'll say nought to you
He sweeps along in his dusky pall

As o'er the grass the dew
Then gramercy for the black friar
Heaven sain him, fair no foul

And whatsoe'er may be his prayer
Let ours be for his soul

When an heir is born, he is heard to mourn
And when ouhgt is to befall
That ancient line in the pale of moonshine

2. Devoured Carcass

Lost in a land in the middle of nowhere
Body bolted to the gournd
Trunk-liquor dries in sores
Unsupported on mothers floor

Impossible to stand the heat
Ants begin to eat the meat
Trunk-liquor dries in sores
Unsupported on mothers floor

[Solo Padde]

[Solo Christian]

In a hour the vultures will get their food

[Solo Tore]

They're just now in the eating mood

Towards it comes an adder
It starts to eat the urine bladder

When the snake has had his lunch
The head is just an empty conch

[Solo Christian]

This is dainty to the tarantulas

[Solo Tore]

A relay is this rotting carcass

Lost in a land in the middle of nowhere
Body bolted to the gournd
Trunk-liquor dries in sores
Unsupported on mothers floor

3. Incantation

The man of Ea am I
The mand of Dakima am I
The messanger of Markuk am I
My spell is the spell of Ea

My incantation is the incantaion of Marduk
The circle of Ea is in my hand
The Tamarisk, The powerfull weapon of Anu
In my hand I hold.... Incantation
In my hand I hold.... Incantation

He that stilleth all the to rest, that pacifieth all
By whose incantation everything is at peace
He is the great lord Ea
Stilleth all to rest, and pacifying all
By whose incantation everything is at peace
When I draw night unto the sick man
All shall be assuaged
I am the magician born of Eridu

[Solo Christian]

Begotten in Eridu and Subari
When I draw night unto the sick man
Oh, My Ea... King of the deep, safeguard me!

[Solo Tore]

Incantation
Noitatnacni

Unto the house, on entering
Samas is before me
Sin is behind me
Nergal at my right hand
Ninib at my left hand

When I draw night unto the sick man
When I lay my hand on the head of the sick man
May a kindly spirit, a guardian stand...
At my side.... Stand at my side

[Solo Christian]

Incantation
Noitatnacni
