Shamhain (Umbrae Ritualis) - Lyrics - Abhor

Abhor and Mehraela were a brother and sister who were martyrs for the Christian faith. The book of their "acts" has been lost. Their feast day is celebrated on January 9 in the Coptic Church.

While, mad human, I pour the blood of madness. My art is like a trapped bat in a small snare that is life. Like the ivy that suffocate the oak, now I kneel down myself in front of the Mather: receive us among your arms like imperiture stars, your sons come towards you, sempiternal moon Endah *** Alckhoth Dem nevr Isht Ehn hat Eshagt Morset nevr Isht Ca jd ol Faa Ca jd ol Hom
