The Sun has died and vanished behind the ridge of ancient mountains,
The wolves’ choir leads the funeral service of the deceased day,
The air thickens and gets cold – this is the triumph of Darkness,
The Black Magic spreads in the air.
From the clefts, caves and ravines,
The shadows are crawling to the light of campfires.
The fearful feast begins for those born in the dark,
For those whose blood awakens only by the dead moon.
The demons of all kinds are raging in the wild dance:
Hitting the drums and blowing the trumpets made of human bones!
The hot flame blackens
And reaches to the sky,
As if about to reach the gray moon…
In smoke and soot,
In growling and grumble –
Something ominous breaks through the shroud…
Indescribable, unpronounceable, unthinkable and unseen: something from the netherworlds.
Black magic – Revelation of the Cosmos
The key to the forgotten doors
From the most ancient times…
