Song Dedication: "Black Madonna" - Theatre des Vampires

Greetings. The job hunt continues hence my recent absence. Today I wish to dedicate a song to my beloved Wifey.....the lyrics to this song I found, whilst looking for Magdalene-related songs, are interesting indeed. The song is "Black Madonna" by Italian Goth band Theatre des Vampires:


The lyrics are:

"An echo blowing among the desert,
Forgotten prayers buried alive
In the burning sand
Arabian memories
Of her scent, in the wind
Her ebony hair so long and tousled,
Alabaster skin, so pure and cold
Carved by the hands of sin
Her crimson lips
The Black Madonna


Kissed by the Son of the father
Beloved more than sons of his faith

Moving her body in the sand
She is the sinner, Salomé
The seven devils dance with her
With the dance of the seven veils.

She is the one who knows All
Black Madonna, Magdalene
With the dance of the seven veils
Black Madonna, Salomé
She is the blood, she is the Grail.
Black Madonna, Magdalene.
With the dance of the seven veils
Black Madonna, Salomé

She was crying, sweeping his feet
Drying the drops of innocent tears
With black hair, over and over
She gasped with pleasure, in the sand
Like a poison snake
The Queen of Mystery
Her voice is lost in the desert

...The Black Madonna
"

Now.....let the countdown begin to All Hallow's Eve/Halloween/Samhain......it's fun time my batlings!!!!!
