AUREUM TEMPUS
06:09
|
|
||
the golden age
power and force at waste
to die to ressurect in the far future
to die to resurrect in the golden age
to start either from the beginning
or from the middle or from the end
to say what has to be said
what a gorgeous age
the age clouded by miseries
the age of destruction

METUS
05:20
|
|
||
I wish to kindle hatred towards myself
that's the destiny
that's the circumstances
obeying the fear with a bit of irony
a honeyed mouth
with milky words
hides a heart
filled with gall and evil deeds.
my life is good when my mind is confused
i ignore my misfottunes
the world is a mirror of the game
nothing is new under the sun
nothing is new under the moon
a rare bird, the white crow
obeing the fear
the eternal low
the law of retribution
the same through the same
obeying the fear

AETERNA VITA
05:25
|
|
||
nothing is made out of nothing
no delay
before,again,further,after
the servile cattle
is longing for a miracle
the third is given
everything is made out
of nothing
eternal life in a morass
|

IMPERIUM
04:25
|
|
||
the eagle catches flies
the donkeys are pleased with scanty food
miserable vassal plebs...
empire...
new order comes again
new babe – new care
new ruber – new laws
time dictates a new order
the lame leg is always better
the empty vessel makes the greatest sound.
one way or another the donkey catches flies
the eagle is pleased with scanty food
empire
the weal of the homeland is the higher law
they create a desert and call it the world
splendid miracles
the eagles and the donkeys catch flies
empire
the weal of the ruler is the higher law

MANIA GRANDIOSA
03:31
|
|
||
who can teach the bounds of good and evil?
we have poison fot life and for pleasure
our gorgeous age...
one man is to another man a monster
flesh eats flesh
bloody insanity
i don't care at all about people
all of you – throw yourselves into the flames
i declare myself god
being of sound mind and memory
i put all my hopes in myself
let the world perish
that's my will!

VIVINUS UT EDAMUS
04:11
|
|
||
we live to eat
we're addicted to nothing
wasting time before the mirror
hoping for what?
when all the meal is eaten
we leave having done nothing
|

ODA TORTORUM
02:56
|
|
||
want to hang? - learn!
learn and hang
to hang is human
first learn,then hang
always ready, almost a fighter
almost great
always ready for the straight way
almost dread
choirs of virgins sing for you
the determined to die salute you
to hang is human
|

SPERO
03:50
|
|
||
the sail calls me
in the sea of insanity
lost in time
like a mad wave
i'm torn between fear and desire
i have a hope
to sleep in a bed of roses
to live in eternal bliss
who calls me insane
will hear the same
|

MEDIA NOX
06:13
|
|
||
i'm catching the moment
burning the bridges
selling the smoke
my mind is asleep
against my will i stay alive
great art of silence
great art of mistake
i'm shouting nonsense
i'm shouting the forbidden
putting the poison aside
anything but that
the fatal moment has not come yet
midnight

NOS HABEBIT HUMUS
03:46
|
|
||
god created the world for his convenience
without our partaking
against the human being
i'm bringing you the great news earth will take us!
don't ask about tomorrow
we are but dust and shadow
that's a great mystery
earth will take us
what is a madness to throw down the gauntlet to death
remember how short your life is
we'll all be drinking our vernomous drink
let the devil finish it off
drink as much as many years you wish to live
drink and forget aboit the empire
all to a man, in any case
earth will take us

TENDICULA
03:44
|
|
||
the times drags on
as if it stopped
slow swiftness
reach the peak – praise yourself
nonsense
oh when will the vanity of the world
come to its end!
When i'm asleep
perpetual sleep
trap

VINCULA TENET
04:08
|
|
||
to muster up courage
to call gad a friend
but fetters hold me
to choose a hostile path to walk
against the wind
but fetters hold me
to get closer to heaven
what an effort, what a labor!
but fetters hold me..
it's time to drink so let's drink
but fetters hold me...

MORITE HODIE
03:23
|
|
||
die today
i'll die tomorrow
the hunting dogs
have a short life
despise you! hate you!
hunting dogs
die today
like a bandog
i'm sapient
i'm pleased with my fate
die today
but i died yersterday
|

INTER
05:23
|
|
||
between life and death
i hope in vain
between life and death
i weep in vain
i reject idols between life and death
i fight shadows in between life and death
i believe lies between life and death
i long for love between life and death
i teach what i don't know between life and death
sorroful shelter between death and life
i help to cross life to death
darkness bears light

ODOR MORTI
05:47
|
|
||
the will of a ruler is the highier low
their obedience is absolute
let them hate if only they fear
let them hate if only they back up
justice is in force
nothing is an inconsistent as the crowd
100-eyed monster
to please the crowd from heaven to hell
time to draw the line
the odor of death,specific odor
time to draw the line
every hour hurts,the last one kills
the sea is messed up with the sky
not even a spot for the Troy was
lots of disasters,great cloaca
the war of all against everyone
even the ruins have perished
the silence strikes with fear
adomination of desolation
the odor of death,specific odor
the show is over,the horror song
the last reason the argument of the slaughterer
the last chance to lye shamelessly
time to draw the line
i said

FINIS ROMA
04:08
|
|
||
it takes ages to build the city
and an hour to destroy it
the last hour has come
rome must be destroyed
the fury of the teutons
with fire and sword
leaves ruins in its wake
turning everything to smoke and ashes
woe to the defeated
the end of Rome
rome must be destroyed
now and forever
rome must be destroyed
thus and the only way
rome must be destroyed
let the eternal city perish!
let rome perish
time to destroy
