Black Legions ravening for blood,

Dark Lords hearken to my call,

Warriors rise forth from the earth,

Battle-spells empower me,

The Throne of Kings, the summoning,

Marble halls sunk 'neath the waves,

Storm-wolves a prowl (beneath) the ebon moon,

Immortal hordes, pledge me thine steel!

The clarion call of battle sounds,

Iron gleams in baleful flame,

Slaughter shines from misted eyes,

Storm-forged blade drink deep.

Stench of carnage fires my blood,

My bride of steel sings in my hand,

Corpse-mounds piled to touch the sky,

Black fury enshroud me!

Bleed for the gods of war!

Flesh to sate the worms!

By this sword I rule!

Dreadful fall of slaughter,

Raw scent of fresh-spilled blood,

Crimson rain falls from the sky,

Ravens ride the storm.

Black cloud of arrows, red storm of swords,

Dark wave of carnage... slaughterfall!

By blood and steel I rule!
