                              Black Duncan recovered himself for a moment 
Then he took his Lochaber-axe 
He swayed his arm in the air 
Dashed forward, and with a last fierce blow 
He split in two the thick skull of Rannoch. 
The fight had ended 
The storm took full possession of the inn again 
The slain Rannoch was dragged away 
The Duncan taken care of 
And the game continued. 
Few days later Black Duncan rode forth again 
The fierce gale had passed over 
As always, there was still a fresh Nordic wind 
But the skies were clear and blue 
with only a few white clouds 
There was still a long way to go.

                              Hear the reap of Armageddon, see the fire scorch the sky 
Watch the sorcerer awaken, millennium of evil dreams 
Altars red of evil rites, faithful feel their glory near 
Possessed warriors go berserk, blood reddens the moon 
Ancient lords return to earth, now evil finally prevails 
Mortals run but cannot hide, pray to god to no avail 
Total destruction delights demons, satisfies the Antichrist 
Witches sing, evil chorus, mankind surely is now . . . 
 
. . . DOOMED TO DIE, christ did lie 
. . . DOOMED TO DIE, the heavens cry 
 
Hear the bells of evil chime, undead legions march from Hell 
Heed the call of hate & war, feel the winds of mayhem blow 
Blasphemy & victory, the Master hath returned 
Take His hand with no fear now, enter his eternal realm 
Sound the charge, into battle, fiery chariots ride the sky 
Holding high the banner black, hailed by strong ones & the wise 
Side by side into the war, at last the prophecy fulfilled 
Witches sing, evil chorus, the universe forever now . . . 
 
. . . DOOMED TO DIE, god did lie 
. . . DOOMED TO DIE, the angels cry

                              The moor lies black . . . unholy clock strikes twelve 
Trumpets break the silence . . . the wind is howling 
Bloodred torches blaze . . . tearing the night apart 
Hideous people appear . . . sick laughter is heard 
Forming a circle . . . around a vacant throne 
Suddenly they kneel . . . the Master arrived 
Sits on the throne . . . the Sabbatic Goat 
Time to worship . . . osculum obscenum 
 
All over the moor . . . strong stench of blood 
Sacrifices commenced . . . twelve hanged men 
Little dead children . . . with golden daggers cut 
Drink the blood . . . unholy communion 
Witches and demons . . . rejoice in sin 
Unbelievable orgy . . . ritual debasement 
Demons play music . . . the faithful dance 
New converts step forth . . . Full Moon Baptism

                              Seven blazing gates to cross 
Before I reach my goal 
Seven purifying porches 
For my parting soul 
After life my soul takes flight 
Into the eternal night 
Heading down the blazing lane 
To Satan's promising domain 
 
Seven blazing gates...... 
 
Crossing the fires of darkness 
Raise the excluding spell 
Passing the thresholds of timeless 
Leaping right into Hell 
Treelike flames surround my spirit 
On its way so darkly lit 
A road untrodden, all floating round. 
Underneath no solid ground 
 
Seven blazing gates...... 
Crossing the fires...... 
 
Soon I will behold the highest 
Lowest prince in all His might 
I will join His ranks infernal 
And worship Him in this inferno

                              The druid slept under the oak 
A lone raven whispered evil words 
Called to Lugh lord of battle 
Followed the spear to hail & kill 
 
Hordes of Gog & Magog in the sky 
Under the sign into war we marched 
Filled the forests with blood of priests 
Defended our race with honour & pride 
 
Slaughtering disciples of holy lies 
Pain we never felt only hate 
Protecting our secret country in fury 
But too many liars came to our lands 
 
Facing defeat with unbowed heads 
For centuries the light of day they ruled 
But in the dark night Celtic rites prevailed 
 
Now the druid has awakened 
Lost sword found the raven flies again 
Sons of coldness & woods return 
Our ancestors will be avenged at last 
 
Again we march under the sign 
Once more soil will mix with blood 
Deny the preachers of love & peace 
Join the proud legions to hail & kill 
 
Days of darkness & evil await us 
In storms and rain we fight again 
Showing no mercy to cowards and traitors 
Out of chaos new order to arise 
 
Pure tribes will ride into glory again 
The millennium of light soon to fall 
The Celtic rites will now prevail forever

                              I sold my soul in a cold & dark past 
Infernal contract signed with evil blood 
Gave 1000 years of earthly pleasures 
Now I hear my Master calling me His child 
I see the bridge glowing in the dark 
Across the bridge of death I must walk 
A godforsaken path to the eternal fire 
Final part of the evil road I walked 
Before long I will enter Hell and...... 
......KNEEL BEFORE THE MASTER'S THRONE 
 
Dark desires of lust & evil in mind & soul 
At last in Hell I will meet the Countess 
Reward for lives of total darkness 
Unholy 13 lives I lived on earth 
Faithfully spreading the Horned One's gospel 
Crossed the bridge I enter His kingdom 
Halls of Hell full of fire & brimstone 
Sword of thunder & steel still by my side 
Before long I will see my Master and......
