hark!Escucha!
the all prophetic incantationla profética incantación
I was here before the beginning cameEstuve aquí antes de que comenzara todo
and I am the one to come after all myths and godsy soy el que vendrá después de todos los mitos y dioses
remain I shall beyond the end ov dayspermaneceré más allá del fin de los días
I pity Thee not oh self despising slaveNo te compadezco, oh esclavo despreciativo de ti mismo
Thy self contempt filled with disgustTu auto desprecio lleno de repugnancia
cast aside Thy scorn ov the earthdescarta tu desdén por la tierra
until I lay my wrath upon the Thee I shall...hasta que descargue mi ira sobre ti...
eat the weak!¡devorar a los débiles!
fuck the flesh!¡follar la carne!
slit the throat!¡cortar la garganta!
consume the dead!¡consumir a los muertos!

drowned in empty blackahogado en el vacío negro
attempt to embrace my universeintentando abrazar mi universo
I learnt how to crawl through knives and thornsaprendí a gatear a través de cuchillos y espinas
drowned in alienationahogado en la alienación
I drag myself through the mudme arrastro por el barro
hatred injected, abhorrence acceptedodio inyectado, aborrecimiento aceptado
when mankind fall preycuando la humanidad caiga presa
I shall arise!¡me levantaré!

and Great Dragon from my mouth emergedY el Gran Dragón emergió de mi boca
and all the treasures ov this world belong to mey todos los tesoros de este mundo me pertenecen
in the sweetest inorganic embrace ov my devoteeen el abrazo más dulce e inorgánico de mi devoto
I pledge my dagger unto Theejuro mi daga ante ti
blessed with the promethean rainbendecido con la lluvia prometeica
tranquility I may find in bottomless pitspuedo encontrar tranquilidad en fosas sin fondo
I shall carry this darkness on my backllevaré esta oscuridad sobre mi espalda
'till the day all the suns eclipse I shall...hasta el día en que todos los soles se eclipsen, lo haré...
eat the weak!¡devorar a los débiles!
fuck the flesh!¡follar la carne!
slit the throat!¡cortar la garganta!
consume the dead!¡consumir a los muertos!
once visiting Krzysztof's lair in London I found "Prometheus Unbound by P.J. Shelley in his library and I was literally blown away. being inspired by Milton's prose throughout most ov Behemoth's history I found something thematically so close, stylistically similar yet very fresh and inspirational. it's obvious that "Prometheus Unbound made a great impact on me during process ov writing lyrics for "The Apostasy. the term "Prometherion is a neology and is a combination ov two words: Prometheus and Therion. lyrically the song envisions the way people deal with harsh conditions and difficult situations. it's shocking how much human beings can be subjected to yet still find release from the chains ov taboos, dogmas and paradigms to see the light in complete darkness. determination might be the most driving and inspirational force in life.una vez visitando la guarida de Krzysztof en Londres encontré
