Opera IX - Unearthed Arcana Lyrics
Consecrate the altar with your symbolsThis is the night when the breeze willrekindles the sacred fire and when theSacred stones will sing your new nameIt's the night of the breeze rekindlingthe sacred fire, (it's the night) of thesacred stones singing your new name.Draw the circle with the athame andundress your candid bodyTo let the eye of the Gods see your essence.Guardians of the north, sacred spirits ofthe earth In the dark of your warm wombaccept my death I offer you my greetingsand) I welcome youGuardians of the east, sacred spirits ofthe Air As the sun rises from the eastafter the night, Guide my soul to a newbirth. (Lead my soul to a new dawn)Guardians of the South, sacred spirits ofthe Fire. Protect me and lighten myjourney on the new path Watch over meand make my journey on the new path brightand clear I offer you my greetings andI welcome you Guardians of the west,sacred spirit of the water Purify me andmake me clear as new spring I offer youmy greetings and) I welcome you Death is waiting and widening itsvoracious mouth. I am entering the dark before the creation I amentering the womb of the Goddess May my body born again Maymy soul stay in peace May my heart be ready Sink yourself in thewarm Earth Sink your mind in the ancient litany Dark mother take me in Let me beborn again We all come from the samewomb This is the song of the goddess,the key to the great union.Anoint your breast and your wombWiden the door of the new fateAnd introduce yourself with your newname Ensemble of flesh enlived by newpower Take the cup and the athameraising your arms to the sempitern eyeAs the cup is female so the knife ismale Now joined They bring blessingConsecrate your sacrifice andenjoy the gifts of the great motherClose your circle and step over,in the truth that all (the ) circles holdGo now you, new creatureNow the master of the Only artThat all the arts containsAnd where all the arts come from.Live with honourAnd with honour die.You the master of theOnly arcane craftThat all the arts gathers..
