This Too Shall Pass (EP)

Midnight Priestess The only reason I can assume this isn't more loved is because it isn't well-known, a tragedy for sure. A short and interesting EP for all your witchy needs, with a ton of variation in the tracks. The ordering of the songs is really well done, giving a neat flow and never becoming tiresome, which is helped by the differing styles of the songs. Buy this and submit to your (perhaps) pagan ancestry whilst consecrating a ritual under the moonlight. 12 out of 7 stars (and one moon). Favorite track: Selenophile.

Awake 02:59
Falling so deeply into what has never been Distorted view through mind that tells you what it is it’s seen Breaking through walls that we have made inside our heads Challenging the echoes that are spreading only dread Heart beating onwards, pushing through the veil of lies Keep your eyes off of the ground and look up to the skies We are resilient, we can break through hearts of stone Always keep on thriving even though we are alone We will never break, never Now we are awake Never, ever give up Never, ever stop

Huldukóngur 04:15
Ríðandi og rekandi yfir sand
 Myndi synda höfin með þitt perluband 
Ég vil sofna, vil bráðna í þitt land og 
horfa upp í hið dýpsta augnsamband

 Hvenær munt þú taka við mér, elsku Huldukóngurinn minn?
 Hvenær munt þú birtast mér? Á morgun eða hinn?
 Já, viljugur er andinn... 

Í gegnum þoku og í gegnum vind
 Vil horfa á þig, en sé bara spegilmynd
 Mæti þér loksins í dimmri bjarklind
 Þú myrkrið mikla, fegursta ímynd

 Hvenær munt þú taka við mér, elsku Huldukóngurinn minn? 
Hvenær munt þú birtast mér? Á morgun eða hinn? 

Stór er hindrun tungumáls
 samt mun ég dansa frjáls 
Í ríki hjartabáls 
Lífsins annáls 

Vil vera ein með þér 
Þar sem enginn sér
 Við vorum saman hér
 En þú slepptir mér

 Hvenær munt þú taka við mér, elsku Huldukóngurinn minn? 
Hvenær munt þú birtast mér? Á morgun eða hinn? 
Hví erum við aðskilin...


 English translation: 
Riding swiftly over the sand
 I would swim the oceans with your pearl necklace
 I want to fall asleep, to melt into your realm
 and look up into those deepest eyes

 When will you receive me, my beloved Elfking? 
When will you appear to me? Tomorrow or the day after?
 Yes, willing is the spirit...

 Through fog and through wind
 Would look upon you, but only see reflections
 Finally meet you in a dark birch grove 
You the great shadow, the most beautiful sight

 When will you receive me, my beloved Elfking? 
When will you appear to me? Tomorrow or the day after?
 

Large is the hindrance of language
 but still I will dance free
ly In the land of the heart's fire
 The annals of life

 Want to be alone with you
 where no one can see
 Here we were together but you let me go

 When will you receive me, my beloved Elfking? 
When will you appear to me? Tomorrow or the day after?
 Why are we separated?

Necromimesis 06:13
I truly believe I'm dead how can this be in my head? I can't breathe, I cannot breathe You are looking right through me for there is no one here to see I am gone, I am long gone Put white roses on my tomb Place your wishes in my womb Perhaps a Weeping Willow will grow Perhaps but I would never know Necromimesis my name 'You're not dead' is what they claim Perhaps they don't see I am below Perhaps but I would never know Necromimesis my name... Cut off my limbs, there will be no blood There will be no soul, there'll be only endless mud Gone, I am gone, I am gone, I am gone I am gone, I am gone, I am gone, I am gone... Necromimesis, Necromimesis, Necromimesis There I've placed four canopic jars For I've returned back to the stars Don't mourn too long for I will see The truth I fear inside of me If you were to take my final breath and put it through your lens Would you find me where I left you forever? If you were to take my farewell thought and put it in a sphere Would you say I would leave you never? Put white lilies on my tomb Place your wishes in my womb Perhaps a Sighing Cypress will grow Perhaps but I would never know Necromimesis my name 'You're still here' is what they claim Perhaps they don't see I am below Perhaps but I would never know Necromimesis my name...

Við fljúgum svo langt Jörmungrund yfir að sjá hver enn lifir sjá hver enn galdrar, sjá hver enn semur hver er tilbúin er dauðinn kemur Við fljúgum, dimmir skuggar Bíðum með skilaboðin Við fljúgum, sjáum allt sem er Hvað mun vera sagt við Goðin? Einn sem allt kann, einn sem allt man Hugsun sem hugsaði sig í tilveru Minning virðist betri í fjarveru Lífið og dauðinn sem að hanga yfir þér Með einu auga hann allt og ekkert sér Áfram, við fljúgum inn, Huginn og Muninn Inn, inn, inn, inn... Ef felur sig einhver, sjáum við hvert sem hann fer heimurinn eins og gler, enginn okkur hulin er Aftur til Ásgarðs fljúgum við svo heim komum viskunni á sveim sjá hver dó í ró og hver við átök hver mun berjast er byrja Ragnarök Við fljúgum, dimmir skuggar Hrafnási hjá, með Gungni sjá hann gljá Við fljúgum, sjáum allt sem er Í bardaga við Fenri, endar allt þá? Einn sem allt man, einn sem allt kann Hugsun sem hugsaði sig í tilveru Minning virðist betri í fjarveru Lífið og dauðinn sem að hanga yfir þér Með einu auga hann allt og ekkert sér Áfram, við fljúgum inn, Huginn og Muninn Huginn og Muninn, Huginn og Muninn Huginn og Muninn, inn, inn, inn, inn... English translation: We fly so far over Jörmungrund to see who still lives see who still performs magic, see who still composes see who is ready when death comes We fly, dark shadows, waiting with the messages We fly, see all that is What shall be said to the Gods? One that knows all, one that remembers all Thought that thought itself into existence Memory seems better in absence Life and death that hang over you With one eye he all and nothing sees Onwards, we fly in, Huginn and Muninn Should someone try to hide, we see wherever they go The world is as glass, no one is hidden from us To Ásgarð, back home we fly bringing the wisdom To see who died peacefully and who died suffering, who will battle when Ragnarök begin We fly, dark shadows With Hrafnáss (Óðinn), see him gleaming with Gungnir (Óðinn’s spear) We fly, see all that is In battle with Fenrir, is that where it all ends? One that remembers all, one that knows all Thought that thought itself into existence Memory seems better in absence Life and death that hang over you With one eye he all and nothing sees Onwards, we fly in, Huginn and Muninn https://youtu.be/maatpvIUsHE

Selenophile 05:00
Drawn to the night, of the Moon's beloved sight Fearful of the light, of the Sun's unwielding might Selenophile Bathed in blue, only me and you... [Invocation] Wisdom, Eternity; I call to you, I call to you Insight, Clarity; Come to me, come to me Selenophile Selenophile It's your form I'm seeking When I open my eyes Filled with painful longing As I'm searching the skies Bathed in white, I fear to catch alight... [Invocation] Beating heart, Yearning; I beseach you, I beseach you Vastness, Intensity; I welcome you, I welcome you Fearlessness, Creation; Enter me, Enter me Selenophile Selenophile Bathed in you, I see all that's true...
