Standing among ruins in absolute zero
Time is erasing the delusive circles in the dust
Serenity is fading, wounded, warmth is fading by its side
Leaving only emptiness and pain
And with flames of hatred I scorched the earth upon which I fed
Melting every piece of hope left before me
Tearing me apart with every single breath
My hands buried in the ashes, the serpent's venomous fangs sink even deeper
And the pain deserts me, even though I try to hold it back
Nihil invenio nisi ruinas ubi omnis spes dissolvit
Et denigravi lumen, quod conscios inluminat gradus
Will I find anything but ruins where all hope dissolves
And I blackened the light which enlights the conscious steps of I
And behold, the stone can bleed as well
I reached so far that I lost myself and now I rove
My path and destination remain hidden and unseen
I wander through endless apathy, my blood is soaking it with hatred
The wind casts away the ashes of my soul and breathlessness chokes again
---Et nunquam claudant oculi mei, ne maledicantur in aeterna caecitate
et tamen dolori ideo vivo, memoriae meae favillae testor;
quomodo demergant in hoc antiquo sanguine meo
Brachia tendo ad dignitatem---
dignity
needed
to carry
my strength
But instead of power, smoke I reach, burning, suffocating smoke
The voice of fire dumbs me, evil fire, toxic, blue
Beyond the landscapes of rancor lurks a desolate land
et horrores delictorum meorum puniunt me et venena eorum conspuunt in faciem meam
His ego me opponam, sed qui fugiam aut vincam
But who is woundng and what oozes from the stone that bleeds again
And my wisdom vapours as the reverse dissolving of the gold in sulphur
In life's melting breath, in death's cradle
But my sight presses on and I recognize the sunset, though a sunset colourless and grey / void of colour
Trough the monochrome scorned landscape the salamander creeps in fire so it can resurrect the phoenix from the ashes
Sed qui vulnerat, et quod ex saxo adhuc sanguinante manat?
Et nebulat sapientiam meam sicut e contrario dissolutio auri in sulphure
In vitae flatu, in cunabulis mortis
Sed urget visus meus et occasum agnosco, solis occasum sine colore et griseo, colore carens
Alveus monochrome contempta topiarum salamandra igne serpit ut phoenix ex cinere resurrecturus
And the fire spils the water,
and the stone is bleeding in flames
When was I abandoned by divinity
shall fire ever be tamed
Show me a clue, reveal thy path to me,
I listen to the wind, I am led by the water
The elemental fire I internalize, enchaining it in my cold heart

In a never-ending race with time,
this race I've lost before its dawn
The colours of persistence are running pale
Dimming the sunshine of the spotless thought
Driven by inertia I found myself
on the path I've longed
a destination once craved, but now forgotten
Momentum deprives me
of my ability
to observe my surroundings,
to enjoy the outer world
And everything is and was
so beautiful, colorful, warm
But now all is a palette blurred and mashed
and the contrast of colours I am unable to grasp
Ultuulla, Zikru, Sagkal
Still I've burned once already
and I'm fearless before your hell
I shall consume your vital fire, next your ashes
I enclose with stones the circle of eternal fire
Wrapped in static I am numbed in this endless stream of time
I sense the stone's cold embrace
But yet this stone I've seen already
It shines exposed to sunlight and under moonlight it screams
It screams voiceless, it deafens, synchronously it chants
it whispers and it speaks
And reminds me with its speech
timelessness to summon
Timelessness emitting time
But also reason it demands
in order to explain
And I witness how the seed of Oak
is growing in seconds
seconds lasting longer than years, condensed in a moment,
stretching through the ages
I entreat to find this window
while the window for the eyes is sealed
But it's revealed before wisdom, knowledge and will
through it the truth of moonlight sees
If only I could take a glimpse in time that is to come
To see where my path leads and where I will take the fall
Whether I will rise and press on
But the mighty Owl of wisdom awakes in the crown of the Ancient Oak
And its spread wings shall veil the light empowered by the sun
And its massive wings of justice give me back my sight
And I see the window shatter between the Owl of wisdom and myself
And towards the sunset the Owl is fading
Sunset in a sky pierced by the light of stars

SITTU ASAR MU
The prodigal reflection of mine,
I witness,
reflection reasonless and souless
reflection denseless, empty, chaotic
rippled by the memory of the stale water
Silvery reflection, foggy and deceiving
Simulating fleshless life
but the essence of the reason it has never reached
The reason for its own existance, for the evanescent path of its
And the depths below, they lurk, inquire
muddy depths of darkness
But the reflection of mine denies
each ray of light
each glimpse of hope and sorrow,
instinct or emotion
Et oblivio est eorum quae in profundo latent
et oblivio est suae potentiae
Et Oblivio cavae voces ima sub
Urget me transire reflexionem meam et eam delere,
nisi sine tacito inaniter relicto
The moon reflects the vicious golden light
The yellowing of silver without the touch of flames
The peacock's tail blooms at sunrise
The speech of every color imprisons me in its grey stare
And the wind is dancing on the ceiling of the endless depths
Dance sinless,
weightless
and unbound
And the wind is gently touching my reflection full of sadness
Wispering and caressing my image with the cloudy gifts of sky
Aqua autem, tam congelatio quam fervens, simpliciter reflectitur
Et non curat doesnt
quorum anima est in eo
reflectitur
Et nescit quod oculi mei observationem meam observant
universum aquae colligentes
universitas tam magna quam lacrima.

Embraced by the souless dark vacuum
The monumental granite giants chant
with their ancient mystic voice
Spilling the echo through the
valleys full of darknesss
Oculi ad videndum, aures ad audiendum (Eyes to see, ears to hear)
Let the philosopher learn to dwell in a paintless realm, void of landscapes
Void of tears, colours and beauty
Blinded by the present and the omens let his empty stare
entangle in the roots of past
Let the cloud eclipse the lunar light
And let him use vibrations instead of paint
Synthesizing colours from the sonic palette
And let the wind spread the coventant into eternity
Clouds are fading like memory of beauty
The wind is slowing down
The light slowly creeps through the valleys
and absorbs the darkness
Surdus Nisme Nuru
the granite song has been sung
AInu Nara Kerum
whispers silenced by the rivers
And even starless the magic sky is full of tales
And no one else can tell what the cosmic void contains
DANNU BATILT USMI
What will the time reveal
ANSHAR ZUMRU RABI
Future dethrone the past
How does one reach the celestial mind in seek of knowledge and reason?
But there's no one to give an answer, nor direction, meaning or destiny
And the shapless sky beyond all form is somehow omniscient and speaks
Wordless yet bringing clarity with sonic landscapes
Time is buried in the purified soil
All motion is paralyzed,
all rivers frozen in a moment
The valley has lost the wind's caress
Surdus Nisme Nuru
the granite song has been sung
DANNU BATILT USMI
What will the time reveal
And even starless the magic sky is full of tales
And no one else can tell what the cosmic void contains
SALMU UDI UTTU
the granite song has been sung
AInu Nara Kerum
whispers silenced by the rivers
The wind scatters the clouds, draining out the warmth, it fills the atmosphere with its breath
The crystal space reveals the stars

Teach me how to see,
so that I can stare
into nothingness before me
so that i can stare
into burning light
Read Me
Invoke the creation of matter
within the core of my void
and bring into this vacuum
the warm breath of seclusion
plant the seeds of disbelief in me
so they can grow the fruit of my rebirth
And Im reborn iron instead of golden
Rusty, but righteous and truthful
Describe to me the sunrise
Introduce me to the peacock
chasing every sheaf of light
with his every feather of colours unseen
colours of magic radiating different in every eye
and with the look of thirst i seek the burning sphere in the sky
But it hides from me ,avoids me
and only spots of lunar delusion i see
Here i find the scars ive left in earth
so they remind me to hide from the silver light
that every honest judgement purifies
however something pushes me towards it
and i spread my arms, scarred and skinned
and im ready to uproot my yellow heart
i deny reality and truth
and depict the world whith the pigment of my soul
pigment made of colours that Ive never seen
no one here who I can ask, no one to perceive
the picture that I paint
the feeling and the sight
No one to enjoy a picture
lacking shades of emptiness and pain
however can i stream vibration
unlike the one enslaving me
I need to stop lookingn in that mirror
beyond which lies the crystal soul of sky
yet again I stare in its depts with hope to find this burning sphere
but now up there neither moon nor the sun nor the stars appear
The ambassador Mercurius hopelessly approaches
why am I forsakend banished buried in the cold and souless soil
i carve new wounds the old ive torn apart
my hands are bathing in the nether blood of mine
I paint the eyes that look ahead
and I crave to see what they see
