Lyrics
Cults Of The Shadow
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Secret chiefs cloaked in wisdom
Dark illuminators of Zyx
Brings the putrifaction process
To lead the soul across the Styx
Ludul bel nimeqi ea
Naramtu dianau apsu
The seven ones of Babel
Offer the Grail of Ecstasy
To open the Eye of Shiva
Through the great work of ecstasy
Celebrators of becoming
Appears in the Sethian mystery
To turn lead to gold
Through the great work of Al-khemy
The secret sign of Mendes
Unveil the magic of the goat
Cults of the Shadow
Under Ilan Hizon's root
La tapallah puluthu
Utukke lemnuti apkallu
The seven ones of Babel
Offer the Grail of Ecstasy
To open the Eye of Shiva
Through the great work of ecstasy
Celebrators of becoming
Appears in the Sethian mystery
To turn lead to gold
Through the great work of Al-khemy
Erset la tari ki-utu-kam
Adapa baru sar kissati
Ziqqurrat kutha pet pi girru
Erset la tari ki-utu-kam
Subigo inimicus
Ludul bel nimeqi ea
Naramtu dianau apsu
