"A black star - the ancient hate"
A tale from forgotten times
Told of aeons of hunger and lust
This vision of enthroned sin
Was truly the promised sign
So, the winds from the ancient kingdom
Brought forth years of war and pain
And for us the sacred hatred
Was like a blaze ruling the sky
This blackest of sunsets cast its cold waves
Upon this frozen nocturnal waste
The sign for a holocaust to come
This vision was forsooth dark
The arctic star of blackness
A burning eye of hate
And I was reborned
Through its cursing light
("Nifelheim")
