The Night Masquerade — текст песни (dimmu borgir)

A scarlet sunset
the threshold to nightplay
A sinful oath is to be sworn
A beckoning bloodlust
among the seekers
Tyrranic hunger yearns
A gathering in flames and fires-
Devil`s daughters dance
Scourged in filth, obscene and lewd-
Longing for dark desires
The nocturnal beast appears
in an evil despotic shape
Expectant watching gracelessly
before demanding the sluts of lust
(the Beast)
Come forth harlots, let`s begin!
(the Beast approaches: )
Rise and give praise in front of Me
and receive eternal life from Me!
Welcome my spirit in jonour of Me!
So drink of the blood I provide you
and you shall all forever wander in the shadows of death...!
(the chanting whores: )
Oh yes, Master! Let us receive
Thine offer and drink with Thee!
And become a part of Thy realm
with lust, sex and sodomy-
for we are those who seek life eternally...!
(the Beast: )
Blood is life and it shall be all ours!
