Lyrics

[Original recording originally released in 1997 on the album "anthems to the welkin at dusk".]
[This live recording orginally released in 2000 on the live album "emperial live ceremony".]

[Lyrics, music and arrangements: ihsahn.]
[4:19]

[This next one is from anthems
It's called "thus spake the nightspirit".]

Close your eyes and gaze into
This realm that I reveal
See where eternities are born
Close your eyes, behold the powers
Of the broken seal
See the liars bound in thorns

Fear
And you shall fall
Weakness suffocates your will
Dare
Yet never fail
Wisdom guides the one
The strong who can defy
Death

[Guitar solo]

So I speak, though, am I heard...?
Wasting visions on a world of blinded fools

Still I scorn
The vacant contradiction of life
If only to bewilder
The final truth shall speak my name

Thus spake the nightspirit

Nightspirit, spirit
Spirit, embrace my soul
( Repeat )
