Текст песни: I Am the Ritual + перевод

Miraculous flames

Transform my sacred energy

Into a guardian spirit

I am ash and dust

Traced symbols in newly turned earth

The sanctuary inaugurated

To give these servants new strengths

Separation of the soul

Pull their children out from the lakes

Caressed then by flames

Celebrated by sacrifice

Effigies of death

Seized with sweet frenzy

A climax to the ceremony

Purifying powers of the fire

All smeared with oil

All smeared with blood

Holy mother merciful

Holy mother angel

The hot winds roar

I am the altar

The bone rattle shakes

I am the drum

The canary jar breaks

I am in the soil

Cinders in the hearth

I am the ash

Tail-feathers coagulate

I am the blood

A pile of fragments

I am the dust

Blown to the four corners of the world

Oh lord have mercy on me

Oh lord have mercy on my soul

The initiations end

Leave behind regrets

Draw me in the dust

Throw me to the stars

Sung between the tears

Remembered for a day and a year

The rhythm builds up

I am the barrel

The chanting grows louder

I am the sun

The rope constricts

I am the fever ritual

The feet turn the dirt

I am the dance

The convulsing of muscles

I am the sweat

The vessel is a blessed sacrifice

Sacrificed for us all
