Mors Tenebrarum (Death of Darkness)

This is the death of darkness,

This is where the lamb is slain,

This is where the light scatters the blackness.

 

Here death’s sting is harmless

Here is where the light reigns

This is the death of darkness

 

The worries of mortality, its harshness

All the pains are locked in chains

This is where the light scatters the blackness

 

No longer shall the night be starless

No longer does hope seem vain

This is the death of darkness

 

Here darkness is no longer marquess

For the blood of the lamb has been its bane

This is where light scatters the blackness

Here life is no longer heartless

Here love and hope fall like rain

This is the death of darkness

This is where light scatters the blackness.
