What Are The Lyrics For Invocations Beyond the Outer: World Night By Bal-Sagoth?

The Testament Of The Winds:
Many thousands of years ago, they ruled the globe
But the pressing fist of great power carried a heavy price
and now their dominion has fallen beyond time and shadow
Look now, to the interior world

The Explorer:
Ah yes, this ancient map (its true origin unknown
mayhap even crafted by the same vaunted cartographer as the infamous Piri Reis map itself?)
won in a game of cards at Portsmouth docks
a fortuitous hand indeed! (This could eclipse even Blackthorne's discoveries in Antarctica!)
Wagered by a grizzled mariner (in whose weary rum-addled gaze gleamed the knowledge of something far greater)...
Twin axial portals to the inner reaches
one at the very polar pinnacle of the world
the other hidden beneath the lost ice-bound megalopolis!
(See also: "In Search Of The Lost Cities Of Antarctica")

Seeking answers to the cryptic riddles of the universe
Secrets of the blackest (most impenetrable) deeps of the umbra
Wreathed in frozen shadow and ice-bound peril
Subterrene halls of horripilated wonderment

Tatsumaki Maru voyage north, ever north!
Cleave a path through the massing Arctic ice
Agleam with all the colours of the aurora
Far beyond Ny Alesund lies our goal

Wreathed in frozen shadow and ice-bound peril
agleam with all the colours of the aurora
The portal to the tenebrous cryptic core of this world's subterrene inner sanctums

Invocations and ideograms (dreams of the Xtaxehedron?)
Conjuration of the inner world's (tenebrous) denizens
And their star-spanning progenitors, spawned beyond the outer-world night

Hail Klatrymadon, Ave Zuranthus
Arise great Kur' oc, come forth, lord Guul-Kor
Zul'tekh, Xuk'ul
Ka-kur-ra, Xothan-Kur
Kur' oc, Guul-Kor
Azor Vol-thoth

These darkling subterrene dominions
astir with strange and terrible beings
sired by entities whose genesis
was far beyond the nighted void of our own outer-world!
The legacy of the First Ones, spawn of the Mera!
But, it is here written that one day
when even the War of the Lexicon
and the cataclysmic Great Chaos War have faded to naught but distant memory
a great conflict shall be waged between the forces of Order
and the dread avatars of the Z'xulth
Vile fiends of the Outer Darkness, They-Who-Lurk-And-Breed-In-Limbo
The Dewllers In Eternal Shadow unleashed through The Gate To That Which Lies Beyond!
The Black Galaxy disgorges its malignant horrors!
Mankind shall suffer inestimably at the hands of these sinistrous
black titans of maleficent Chaos!

Ebon ziggurats and monads beneath the earth
A Vril-Sun rising!

These stygian pitch-black vaults are filled with batrachian devils
Dire crystalline watch-dogs of the chasmed deeps
(For the gleaming jewels of truth are not without their protection)
Vril-gorged adamantine fiends of the threshold
Spawn of the ersatz interior sun
(Behold, a vast plasma-fuelled crystalline illuminatory orb, a vril-sun rising!
And marvel at the colossal terra-forming machineries of the First Ones!)

Quaere verum
Sic itur ad astra!

The Testament Of The Winds:
Far, far beneath the surface of this coruscating sphere
at the very core of our mysterious globe, lies
the true path to man's dark destiny beyond the heavens
