Opus Magnum [English translation]

In the name of the rose, in the name of the cross

Mysterious is the covenant

Tattered shadows in dark arches

Red seals the mouth

In the frenzy of my senses, enchanted whispers

The clocks stand still

Mirrors hung with grey on flickering walls

Gloomy the Glockenspiel

Great work find me

I am as pure as white snow

Great work bind me

Take me into your circle

The rite turns eternally

Through the slaughter of life

Silence brings ruin

The true faith has been attested to

Beating of breasts

Sacrificed

So innocent

My blood

Purified

The work is great

Lightning orbits

I am ready

In the ocean of desire, in the knowledge of the faith

Terrifying the torment

Pitiful fears in pale faces

Ready for the ritual

The rite turns eternally

Through the slaughter of life

Silence brings ruin

The true faith has been attested to

Beating of breasts

Sacrificed

So innocent

My blood

Purified

The work is great

Lightning orbits

I am ready

Beating of breasts

Sacrificed

So innocent

My blood

Purified

The work is great

Lightning orbits

I am ready
