THERION LYRICS

1. The Rise Of Sodom And Gomorrah

[Music by C. Johnsson, lyrics by Thomas Karlsson]

(The) Sun enter the Capricorn (and) the Star of Sin will shine
The King of Sodom drink again
Lady Babalons whine

(One) Hundred and Twenty days in the Depth of the Dead sea
And walk the Path of Peccatus
(and) the Setian alkhemy

Rise of Sodom and Gomorrah
Reveal the gnosis of Borora

The princess Justine
sing a song of her sin
of pleasure and pain
and the virtues in vain
to the ear that will hear
and the one without fear
to the old fallen ones and the forbidden thing they all have done

(The) Sun enter the Capricorn (and) the Star of Sin will shine
The King of Sodom drink again
Lady Babalons whine

Rise of Sodom and Gomorrah
Reveal the gnosis of Borora

Hear the king Bera
cry out in the land of Canaan
and the daughters of Lot
cry for their father and their god

('The Cry of Complaint of Sodom and Gomorrah
yes, it's loud and their sins are heavy')

2. Birth Of Venus Illegitima

[Music by C. Johnsson, lyrics by Thomas Karlsson]

Aphrodite is rising from the shell.
A newly born to be seen to expel from from the paradise,
to drink from her well.

O Venus illegitima
Born again without shame
Child of sin is my name

Aphrodite is falling into the hell of her sins and the lust
for that spell of the forbidden nectar from her well

3. Wine Of Aluqah

El-A'awer. Talbis Iblis.
Gulshan-i-Raz. Ya Zat-i-Shaitan.
Drink the wine of Aluqah and breathe the secret smoke of god.
Intoxicated by the green shadows of the paradise.
Know that nothing's true and that everything is permitted.
So read the old man of the mountain in his book of lies.
El-A'awer. Talbis Iblis.
Gulshan-i-Raz. Ya Zat-i-Shaitan.
Ya Zat-i-Shaitan.
Drink the wine of Aluqah and breathe the secret smoke of god.
Intoxicated by the green shadows of the paradise.
Know that nothing's true and that everything is permitted.
So read the old man of the mountain in his book of lies.
The nectar of Aluqah will run down my dreams.
The spring of this paradise hide deep inside the unknown streams.

4. Clavicula Nox

Dark horizons come close to me and
Magic will be my key
I will travel through the gate
To be the finder of my fate
Nox, the night and key I will open your old mystery.
Key of night, open up!
Deep abysses I sink into
And behind the light I go
My long journey never ends,
But I will receive what I send.
Nox, the night and key
I will open your old mystery. key of night, open up!

5. The Wild Hunt

Hunted by the gargoyles through the labyrinth.
Loosing Ariadne's thread. I'm gone astray!
Tumbling into chaos without anything
And my holy guardian angel has walked away.
I'm chasing my shadow inside my own soul
I am the persecutor of my self in the wild hunt
The horned god take me through infernal journeys
The dogs are barking and the owls cry out loud,
Shadows are laughing and screaming in my ears.
I see the outline of the horned man-in-black.
He stretch his hand to my left shoulder in fear.
I'm chasing my shadow inside my own soul
I am the persecutor of my self in the wild hunt
The horned god take me through infernal journeys
I throw my self into all the demons. I cast my self into the wild hunt
The forest is the labyrinth of fear and all the dead running in the hunt.
I give my self unto all my demons and let they eat of my mind and soul.
I will gain strange powers in this ravage. I cast my self into the wild hunt
I'm chasing my shadow inside my own soul
I am the persecutor of my self in the wild hunt
The horned god take me through infernal journeys

6. Eye Of Shiva

[Music by C. Johnsson, lyrics by Thomas Karlsson]

Triunity of the space, inside the sacred maze.
Shiva in the cosmic dance, the divine eye gaze.

Eye of Shiva, dance the world!

Lightening flashes from your eye, destroy the illusion.

All destruction by a glance, set the world in a trance.
Inside the sacred maze, Shiva's cosmic dance

Bom Bom Shiva Bom Shankara
Bom Bom Shiva Bom Rudra
Bom Bom Shiva Vama Chara
Kala Tattwa

Great Eye of Shiva, thunderbolt Rudra, unveil Lady Maya.
Great Eye of Shiva, dance the world into the cosmic maze of outer space.
Unveil Lady Maya.

7. Black Sun

Black sun rising over mankind
All the slavegods will be sunblind
Sorath shining through his new priest
Who proclaim the rise of the beast
Bear the torch across the darkness
And hold up the spear of destiny
Hail Deggial, sign of the black sun
We will light the flames of victory, hail!
Black sun burning the face of earth
And preparing the new gods birth
Sorath coming to the black feast
And speak through the voice of the beast
Bear the torch across the darkness
And hold up the spear of destiny
Hail Deggial, sign of the black sun
We will light the flames of victory, hail!

8. Draconian Trilogy - Part One: The Opening

Lepaca draconis nox Tarados

9. Draconian Trilogy - Part Two: Morning Star

Red dragon from the first morning of time,
Red dragon of ancient depths of the mind,
Rise up from the abyss of ignorance,
Coil into the existence of the blind.
Morning star please bear your light,
Through the day to next night.
Fallen one who stole the spark,
Bring it into the dark.
O Typhon apep lothan
O drakon Typhon apep lothan
Morning star please bear your light,
Through the day to next night.
Fallen one who stole the spark,
Bring it into the dark.
Dragons of tomorrow flying to their babel of yesterday,
They open the seal of Sorath and release the eleventh ray.

10. Draconian Trilogy - Part Three: Black Diamonds

Red dragon burning again and dragging down stars
And fallen angels down from the heavens to the newborn world,
To fulfill the prophecy and be the force to see.
Red dragon flying now and casting down stars
And ancient angels down from the heavens to the burning earth,
To fulfill the prophecy
And be the force in man once again, as it was in the beginning.
The diamonds glimmering in the darkness, to be the stars of the night.
Black pearls will shine so bright, of the draconian might.

11. Raven Of Dispersion

Fly alone into the dark and the cloud of memory
To see the world and angels be hurled into the sea
Of misery and cease to be
Black bird fly, rise very high
To a place above (the) sky
Take me away, lead astray
Where I find another day fly high to a place above the sky
Fly away where I find another day
Black bird fly, rise very high
To a place above (the) sky
Take me away, lead astray
Where I find another day
Fly high to a place above the sky
Fly away where I find another day
The black bird carry me on it's wings
To a place beyond the flood of memory.
The Raven of Dispersion from
A'arab Zaraq fly in ecstacy.
