01. L'Ascension

[Instrumental]

02. A New Order

From the depths of this den
The incandescent arrow
To the heights of the gallows
The destruction of the Ten

Through the scarlet gardens
To the vermilion palace
Chaos marches with terror
Eternal loss for a banner

An infernal banquet
Prophetic feast of desolation
Around the fountain
Where the dancing shadows take shape

The flickering flame of the great fire
Lit on the lake
Worship the name of the sovereign
Who makes the earth quake

[ The tremendous speech of the fallen star
To the wretched ones
Set nights on fire, swallow the sun ]

And forbid the dawn

A celebration
Religiously, disorderly
Hell in Heaven
Insanity, unholy

The conquering star has reached
The forbidden court he once called home
Crushing the skulls, beneath his feet
Landing a wave made of dark foam

The renegade order shall rise
And spread pestilence

The soil, thirsty for lifeblood
Would grow and feed a fiery wood
All hail and pledge allegiance
To the standard, soaked in red

The chained foolish angel
Betrayer of his own blood
The desperate jester
The crawling lurker

03. The Renegade Son

Falling father
Overthrown by the renegade son
The battle is won
The left hand pushed him away

The blinding light of the avenging sovereign
The final glance at a defeated emperor
Given over to eternity
Given over to blasphemy

The land of the loss has been reached
An inevitable destination
The land of the loss has been reached
The realm of desolation

The land of the loss
One destination
The land of the loss
The desolation

The unwritten chance trodden
By the feet of the former lord
A wandering shadow
Ghost from Heaven
A ruined face gazing at the magnificent skies

Blaring fanfare
Celestial feast for infernal angels
That macabre dance of euphoric figures
Blaring fanfare
Celestial feast
That macabre dance leads to the east

Contemplating the vile fresco
The doomed masterpiece
An erected, malevolent throne
Laughing thunder
Great stifling vault

Twisted shapes of twisted freaks

Laughter
Laughter from the damned

The looming peace of a god
On the left-hand path
Closes the eyes of a former friend
A fury from the past

A fury that never lasts

04. The Crowning

The malevolent thrones appear
Blazing monuments
Witnessing the advent
The heirs reigning rightfully

All hail Lilith
All hail Lucifer

Long live the reign of the flame
Spread the word and bend the knee before them

Lilith
Lucifer

One crown shared above their heads
Three swords for one hand
One tongue for both of them
Here dwells the dragon
From the shadow of God
To the light from the new lord
The fallen angels
From the depths of darkness
To the hand of the skies
Azazel
From the great garden
To the heights of the mountain
Samael
From infernal princes once
To the head of the militia
Beelzebub
[ The gates of Heaven have been opened
The traitor shall join the weak
The three of them shall fall in Hell
Justice for the fallen angels ]

A holy sentence
For holy violence
Make them forbidden
Alone and forsaken

The king is nothing but a usurper
The realm of flames should grow stronger

Any eye would see
Any tongue would say
That the hand of a traitor
Shall never be my lord

Any eye
Any tongue
Shall never be my lord

The most grotesque farce of all has come to an end
Where the morning star shall fall again
And the wanderer be avenged
The serpent leads the way to the end

05. Stellar Cross

The four branches of the stellar cross
Hold the hanging iron cages

Holy lamentations
Spread on earth by the putrid wind

[By the rotten wings of the extinguished stars
Quis ut Deus
The dragon had fallen]

Under the skeletal tree, autumn
[The pride of the snake
The modesty of the soldier
The salvation on the battlefield]
The almighty saviour Mi Cha El

From darkness to the light
From the light to the cell

The long white coat of winter
Floats above the west
Dropping the hopeless seeds of birth
On the burnt soil of desolation

The eloquent voice he was once
The final threnody whistled Gabriel
Watching above him, Hell

From darkness to the light
From the light to the cell

[Through the river from the western bed]

Spring has bloomed in its jail
Caught like a beast
Rebirth for no one in the east
Unable to breathe the air
The forgotten breeze removed from Raphael
Locked forever by Azazel

From darkness to the light
From the light to the cell

These eyes watching from the south
The fire illuminates the future
An incandescent gladius sword
And in pain, he spreads the word
The fallen king shall return
The prophecy from the punishing angel
Then the light leaves the bird, Uriel

From darkness to the light
From the light to the cell

[The spread wings of the declining seasons
Cast a shadow over the world
The wise ones, forsaken fools
Vestiges of an old era
The heavenly birds, cherished by light
Captive forever, crying out for order]

For order

06. La Tentation

[Instrumental]

07. Au Bord Du Gouffre

Étoile de l'Est
Archange prisonnier
D'un royaume désolé
Appelle le Père
Las de son exil
L'arrivée du vagabond
Vers cette issue fatale
L'insolente ascension

Le sacre du mortel
La quête du divin
La main céleste
Annonciatrice du retour manifeste

[De l'horrible blasphème
À la naissance du Tome
Entends la prière de l'Homme]

Au bord du gouffre
Où la chair est idole
Au bord du gouffre
Où le saint fut symbole

L'air devenu soufre
Le spectacle sinistre
D'un régent désolant
D'une reine aux yeux tristes
Vois le déclin de ces enfants

La voie empruntée par un dieu
Autrefois vengé par le feu
Traverse l'arc flamboyant
Vers le trône, le portail édifiant
Gardé par l'ange renégat
Infidèle et vil soldat

Vers la chute, vers la fin
Lucifer, Lilith, le déclin

Pauvres âmes tourmentées
Par la main, libérées
Par l'Éternel, sacrées

Chassées pour l'éternité
De leurs formes spirituelles
Pour l'enveloppe charnelle

Fuis la colère colossale
Face à l'abysse infernal
Écoute les diables sombrer
Regarde les hommes tomber
