Obsidian Gate - Jackal-Headed Devourer

Dreaded shadow of the land beyond the river
Of dust and sand and of the waterless infertility
Where woe and emptiness are guest of him
Who is both human and chakal, god and beast in one

He who judges mercilessly and cruel any man's departed soul
Anubis, Anubis, what fault rests on my shoulders
That your wrath now comes upon me?
Anubis, Anubis have mercy!

O Jackal-Headed Devourer!

You deny my mouth to open

The storming sands emit armies of locusts
Feeding on my hair, skin and flesh

And the risen dead mock at me

Stung by scorpions and maimed into shreds by rabid canine beasts
The anguish is overwhelming
For the weight of my heart is heavier than the granite
Of the monuments I have erected

O Jackal-Headed Devourer - You deny my mouth to open and speak...

Solo: Zeitz

You deny my mouth to open
In death I will become mere void

The blood I spill is twice the ocean of blood
Which I have poured from my numberless enemies
Son of Ra, Judge of the fallen,
Who casts my soul into the fiery maw of Ammit
You deny my mouth to open
That I might writhe in my sin
You deny me from all bliss
