(Kak mietiel' iz Sibiri poiavilsia nieizviestnyi monakh
Rasputin zapovidil dvor caria i sierdce caricy
S miagkimi slovami i d'iavol'skimi glazami
On propoviedil siekrietnyi um...)
Rasputin, the Black Munk's
Coming like a new born
In Sibiria you saw the Black Munk preach
Russian Gnostic words of hidden wisdom
See the mistery in the ecstatic eyes
Hear a song as sinful as the moon
Rasputin, your fever
Will infect the women
Fell the ecstacy when he inverts the world
Secret Gnostic rites of Khlysti Gospel
FollowRasputin in the enchanted dance
Feel a heat as ardent as the snow
In Sibiria you saw the Black Munk preach
Russian Gnostic words of hidden wisdom
See the mystery in the ecstatic eyes
Hear a song as sinful as the moon
Fell the ecstacy when he inverts the world
Secret Gnostic rites of Khlysti Gospel
FollowRasputin in the enchanted dance
Feel a heat as ardent as the snow
