relinquishment of spirit and flesh

dimmu borgir’in in 1997 tarihli enthrone darkness triumphant albümünden bir şarkı.



king of tempests and storms
lord of innumerable figures and forms
blessed with thy cold i am
as i upon the shoulders of mine
bear the burden of thine

once i got touched by a fire from beyond
an invitation to darkness of which i could not resist
caressed by the feathers of the fallen
i took the fate in my hand

my raging commander
my constant shade
my soul’s persecutor
my eternal divinity

revealing thy powers in visions and dreams
invoking your magic at night
honoured i am to mission thy word
within a creed is sworn of majestic might
an infernal allegiance in which i pay my share
an unholy awakening inside of which i intend to bear

beholding thy commotion
i entreat you with devotion
i subsume your might with strength
i will carry on with you as my guardian
against the lambs of the light

possesses by the true god of earth i am
