WOLFSHADE (A WEREWOLF MASQUERADE)
She brought the Night
Hidden in her sad Wolf eyes
The perfume of a twilight
Her strongest scent
Half Wolf, Half female
What a strange wedding
Mother Nature
Has offered us to see...
Her mask lays lost
In a fatal dawn
Closed were the eyes of the Sun
He sleeps
And in the name
Of Her Father
She will kill
My child kills
Your nightly birth
A requiem God can't forget
For your life is just
A celebration of his death
Without his thorns in her heart
She wears a shadow as face
A werewolf masquerade
In her eyes the wolfshade
She brought the Night
And by the night was brought
We are but children
Of the powers she had set free
Your nightly birth
A requiem God can't forget
For your life is just
A celebration of his death
Without his thorns in her heart
She wears a shadow as face
A werewolf masquerade
In her eyes the wolfshade
She brought the Night
And by the night was brought
We are but children
Of the powers she had set free
Strange are the ways of the wolfhearted...
LOVE CRIMES
The cold nights
Have awakened Me
The soft winds
To undress Me
The nails of two witches
Have touched Me
Their caress cuts
Like the sharpest ice
Yes it is their way
This so mysterious way
Of welcoming Me
Welcoming Me
Their way to remember
Distant nights of Passion and Doom
Where, naked, have I bathed
In velvet waters
Witnessed by an accomplice smile
Inside an innocent Moon
Serene were the beings
Who guided Me
Empty were the hands
Which undressed Me
To carve strange symbols
Unknown to Me
But lay so dearly
Inside of Me
This is my way
This so mysterious way
Of welcoming She
Welcoming She
My way to remember
Distant nights of Passion and of Doom
Where we both wore flesh crowns to defy the skies
In their blue and so vague tyranny
We are mute villains
Drinking of Love as insolent Vampires
Valsing through stars and skies
Leaving subtle traces of loss
At that and all to come
Winter nights
Like neophyte ravens
In the strangest nest
Charmed by the wilderness
Of this strange host
Drawing naivety
With our blood and semen
Ritually engraved
In our hearts and chests
Marks of a pain
Signs of a love crime
That will forever
And never last
It is our way
This so mysterious way of loving
Of welcoming thee
Welcoming thee
Our way to remember
Forever lost nights of Passion and Doom
Remembrance served in cups of sorrow and pride
For all the eternities we will still cry
For having lost
Amidst the stars our bride
Untouchable in her smile
Inside the great Silver Eye
Every night she is
Condemned to shine
To shine
...OF DREAM AND DRAMA (MIDNIGHT RIDE)
You've no mother to feed you
Or to lick your so deep wounds
Nor Earth where to lay your timid crown
You've suffered by your father
And even the Moon lies to you
When she shines
When she shines
When she shines...
When she shines
When she shines
The seduction of an altar
Is a weakness in her movements of Death
It is a mere vanity of Woman
To delay her
Midnight ride...
Suicide...
Midnight ride
Midnight ride
Midnight ride...
Beautiful dagger you may now leave your case
Wild red tears at the lady's hand
Kissed were her breasts with your sharpened face
Given is now what Love had taken
Death and Love
They together danced
Yes, the flames did smile to her
Invited her to their fiery peace
To a funebre dance
Around a bonfire
Where all Women are naked and alone
Immolating their pride
May they forever ride
Far, in a midnight crime
(Take out the ????)
Midnight ride
Suicide
Midnight ride
Midnight ride (ride ride ride ride ride)

Trebraruna filha da Dor
Guerreira sagrada, Deusa do Amor
Trebraruna teu leito semente
Acolhe-nos agora num muy doce abraço
Trebraruna és Vida és Morte
Da Lua és filha, dos Lobos consorte
Trebraruna pagão é teu ventre
Ansiado refúgio de quem ainda te sente
Viva!
Trebraruna és tu quem nos gera
Alimento teu seio d'Amor e de Guerra
Trebraruna a tua voz é
A melodia mais doce da nossa Terra
Trebraruna nós tuas crianças
Beijamos teus olhos cerrados com fervor
Trebraruna cantamos para ti
Somos teu eterno, fiel trovador
Vampiria
You are my destiny
My only Love
And true destiny
Vampiria...
You're a beast, evil one
Above your head, lays a Star
In your heart is buried the jewel
Of a Serpent who wished to die
Your red long tongue has her poison
And you'll spread it as you breed
In a unique Transylvanian dream
Conceiving the creed of all creeds
Vampiria
Fly
Vampiria
Vampiria
Fly
Oh Vampiria
In your eye
Burn
Defying
All those who in silence sleep
In a city
Once named Desire
Dreaming with the entombed dear
In a city
Once named
Desire
Desire
The lady has fallen
In a blossom
Spread far away by undesirable winds
To females
Conspiring in gloom
Hiding your pearls from the pigs
So open your arms!
They're shaped as wings
A serenade of revenge
Draws on your lips
The sombre hill you're staying in
Is now defined
And your Star
Had start to shine
Depart now
On your bright wings
The world envy
The skies have always
Seduced you
Precious Queen
And you know your time
Has come
To fly
To fly away with Me
So far...
Queen of all my sleepless nights
For whose beauty I, Faun
Have played my pipes
With heart
Queen in white silk, skin like milk
Horns of Faun, lips of dawn
You are now honoured you with my presence
As I'm honoured by your sight
I crown
Your perfection
The predator in your breast
I devour
Tempted is now my light body
From where it burns spirals of exotic scents
Rose, sandal, jasmine, all kinds of incense
Of incense
Aged fragrances only dreamed of once
Dragons do dream far beyond the sense
Far beyond the sense
We make love in the dusty throne
Of a Modern
Sodoma
Come to Me
Step further into my nakedness
Caress me in your breasts of Fire
Breed my flame
Have no fear or weakness
I welcome you in my hole of desire
Desire
Have me now, Prince
Have me here
Your beg still whispers in my ear
Daylight has broken into a strange nostalgia
Night tired candles seem like two lovers
Melt in a embrace of conspiracy
Between us there is this strange chemistry
But would
You die for me?
Would you die for
What I've longed to be?
Imperious, choleric, irascible
Extreme in everything
With a dissolute imagination of the like
Which has never been seen
Atheistic
To the point of fanaticism
There you have me
In a nutshell
And kill me again
Or take me as I am
For I shall not change (De Sade)
Never
Breed of a nameless force
Origin of our Sin
We are as large as Gods
We are their tragedy
We are the four arms
Of the solar Cross
Lightning in incredulous faces
The flames of Uthopy
Would you die for
This?
Would you die for this?
ALMA MATER
Mother Tongue speaks to Me
In the strongest way I have ever seen
I know that she sees in Me
Her proudest child, her purest breed
She speaks to Me in colours
That I can't really understand
I only know that they are ours
And to those I'll proudly bend
For I am your only child
And you my dearest mystery
From an ancient throne I defy the world
To kneel before the Power within
For I am your only child
And she is dearest mystery
World can't you see it?
Am I alone in my belief?
Virando costas ao Mundo
Orgulhosamente sós
Glória Antiga
Volta a nós!
Alma Mater
Breaking waves announce my Bride
It is the only way the Sea could sing
Legends of Lusitanian pride
He sings the words I cannot spring
At the Moon Mountain six wolves cry
Your lost glory we'll regain or die
For I am her only child
And she is my dearest mystery
Pagan Gods in conspiracy
For the sword of Tyranny
Mother Tongue has spoke to thee
In the strongest way they've ever seen
World can't you see?
I am not alone in my belief
Virando costas ao Mundo
Orgulhosamente sós
Glória Antiga
Volta a nós!
Alma Mater!

ATAEGINA
Na Ara da Vida jaz uma morte
A ti te lanço a minha sorte
Ataegina tríade fatal
Pálida Deusa, doce é teu mal
Centenas de corvos sobre o rochedo
Cantam em coro histórias de Medo
De Primaveras que a morte abraça
Em ti encontram a sua desgraça

Já se choram filhos perdidos
Para terras amargas sem retorno
Onde à voz dos Deuses Perdidos
Bebe o povo o sangue do corno
Corças alvas trazem esperança
Lembram destinos, a vitória
Nobre Guerra, furiosa dança
Do pó sai um rumor de glória
