Ecate - Opera IX

Through the sacred hole she stares at the three flames in the dark and damp

ground

En Erebos, phos, In umbra lux

Invoking her power, her effigy will come to life

Dance in a violent vortex of spirals and you will hear her voice

I celebrate Ecate lady of the crossroads, of the moon and the night

I celebrate Ecate in the woods of Avern

In your pale hands you raise the torch that lights our way

The way through the darkness where th shadows hide the sacred mystries

Dark light of the three worlds, lady of the keys, guardian of hell and human

psychi

Lighten my path to your winter reign with your moon scythe

Silver shines in her eyes, because you are the cast and the meretrice,

the lymph and death

In your complete and stronger than any other

Guide me, because obscurity for you has no secrets

In the Avern the torch dims out in the darkness

Ecate, Ecate, Dark Mother take me in

Ecate, Ecate, let me be reborn

Ecate, Ecate, let me be transformed

Ecate, Lady of the crossroads, I stand where three paths meet

Ecate, Lady of the crossroads, I ask that you guide my feet
