Liber Umbrarum Vel Coniunctio Lyrics
[Proclamator:]
Timeo, trepido; in basilicis atris erro. Nescio, nememini quo modo huc adveni.
Librum Iuvenis quiete domi legebam. Sed qui estis, spiritus advenientes?
[Umbrae:]
Lemures aut spiritus non sumus! Nonne nos cognoscis?
Liber sanctus sum : Draconigenus sum : Et feminea aeterna sum
[Proclamator:]
Certe vos cognosco; in somnis mihi torquetis! Mehercule, abite, mali spiritus!
Redite ad infernos, magnopere me temptatis! Cur mi apparuistis; quid vobis mecum rei est?
[Umbrae:]
Tibi apparuimus, ut completus fias. Consanguinei sumus, tu et nos.
[Proclamator:]
Intellectu careo! Venitisne ex animo meo?
[Umbrae:]
Ita vero; de te sumus partes. Assume nos et invenies!
[Proclamator:] Nunc intellego!
[Omnia:] CONIUNCTI SUMUS.
[English translation:]
[Bawler:]
Timorous I tremble, lost in murky hallways. I know not nor recollect
how I came to be here. I was perusing the book of the Youth in the quiet of
my home. But who are you, approaching spirits?
[Shades:]
Lemures or spirits we are not! Dost thou not recognise us?
I am the sacred child : I am dragon-kin : I am the eternally feminine.
[Bawler:]
Verily I recognise you; the tormentors from my dreams! By Hercules,
begone, evil spirits! Return to Hades - you tempt me overmuch! Wherefore did
you appear to me; what be your business with me?
[Shades:]
We appeared to thee so thou wouldst become complete. We are consanguinous, thee and us.
[Bawler:] I understand not! Did you spring from my soul?
[Shades:] Forsooth; we are part of thee. Embrace us and thou shalt see!
[Bawler:] I comprehend now!
[All:] WE ARE CONJUGATED.
