Emperor The Acclamation Of Bonds Lyrics

(Words: Ihsahn/ Music: Ihsahn & Samoth/
                    /Arrangements: Ihsahn)
                             Vide
                      Ravens caw in reverence
                   Anthems to the Welkin at dusk
                     In celebration of the few
                            The kin
                         Beyond flesh
                         Beyond words
                       Those of the core
                         Beyond gods
                        As gods received
                       I float among them
                      On wings once broken
                       Now gleaming black
                       I share their song
                       Of words unspoken
                       Cries of the past
                   In times of fiendish tempest
                 Bloodlust turns against the coil
                      Hungry to the fall
                       I greet the pit
                        Blind Savage
                        Cursing Life
                Yet, at the moment of my final step
               The hands and golden chains are given
             Bidding me that which can not be deprived
                 The bonds of trust and unity
                        Till the end
                 Brethen and sisters of my circle
                    I acclaim thee all
           When guiding stars are clouded and deranged
                  Fear not to take my hand
                  The bonds of trust and unity
                      As gods received
                        Till the end
