Lyrics

The grim visage of the night
Enthralls the vast silhoutette of ancient rome
Where in his glorious cruel palace
The grand emperor resides in baptized blood
Nero, emperor granded with satan's flame
Ordered his sorcerers to forsee the world's fate
Threatened by a swarm of impure creatures
The christian plague and their false father god..

Ave nero!

And there he sat, only lightened by the moon
To his left and his right impaled christian heads
And he asketh the wise elder ones
How to slay god's lambs in masses
At the same hour in the great colosseum of rome
The lions hunt for frightened feeble christians
Their screams of unbearable pain
Mirrors satisfied smiles of joy onto nero's face

[Emperor nero:]
"Hark, the dread beast's hunger stilled with the flesh baptized and innocent
Guide me to this hallowed place where the devil's eyes can see their deaths
You can call me god of flames for fire shall melt all their souls
In blood, I'll wash my hands clean which will set their houses on fire

Intruders of light, into flame thou shalt be forced
The roman empire will hunt thy weak souls
Intruders of our realm, death be with you
Neros cruel hands shall break thy saviour's neck

Chorus:
Where the battlefields will drown in holy herde's blood..
Time of colossal christhunt, time of retaliation!
Where the flames of hell spread through all temples of christ..
Time of colossal christhunt, time of retaliation!

The arena is filled with the roar of the beasts
Nero, grand emperor, be one with them
Summon the old gods, the spirits of fire
Make the night become day by the shine of burning rome..

[Emperor nero:]
See, the flames raging wild and tall, consuming the flesh of the false believers
Blood runs like rivers, my work is done, my enemies fall for my victory
Go and announce that they burnt rome themselves, the world's hate shall fall
Upon them
In the whole world the lions shall long for christian blood with rage in their eyes!"

[Repeat chorus]

The arena is filled with the roar of the beasts
Nero, grand emperor, be one with them
Draw all thy swords and rage war against christ
Nero, thou monument, watch upon us all!

Intruders and weaklings fall to their knees
The horned silhouette of nero inflames all their fears
Intruders from heaven. erased thou shall be
Thy beds now are burning, thy flesh is ablaze

Those of the light... they shall die!
