Mithras, God of the morning, our trumpets waken the wall!
'Rome is above nations, but thou art over all'
Mithras, God of the morning, our trumpets waken the wall!
'Rome is above nations, but thou art over all'
Now as the names are answered, and the guards are marched away,
Mithras, also a soldier, give us strenght for the day!
Mithras, God of the sunset, low on the western main,
Thou descending immortal, immortal to rise again!
Now when the watch is ended, now when the wine is drawn
Mithras also a soldier, keep us pure till the dawn!
Many roads thou has fashioned: all of them lead to the light,
Mithras, the soul of a soldier, teach us to die aright.
Mithras! Mithras!
Mithras, god of midnight, here were the great bull dies,
Look on thy childern in darkness, oh take our sacrifice!
Mithras, God of the noontide, the heather swims in the heat,
Our helmets scorch our foreheads; our sandals burn our feet,
Now in the ungrit hour; now ere we blink and drowse,
Mithras also a soldier, keep us true to our vows!
Mithras, God of midnight, here where the great bull dies,
Look on thy childern in darkness, oh take our sacrifice!
Many roads thou has fashioned: all of them lead to the light,
Mithras, also a soldier, teach us to die aright.
Mithras! Mithras! Mithras! Mithras!
Ancient Rites is a Belgian band playing black metal (initially) and folk metal (recently) formed in 1988. The initial lineup consisted of guitarists Johan and Phillip, drummer Stefan and Gunther Theys on bass and vocals. In 1990 the *Dark Ritual* demo was released in the underground scene, gaining worldwide attention just as black metal was gaining importance in the metal scene. Soon after the release of this demo Phillip died in a car crash and not long after, Stefan committed suicide. However painful this episode was to the band, they decided to continue and Stefan's position was taken by his drum roadie Walter Van Cortenberg. Ancient Rites has released numerous albums, including *The Darkest Hour* (1994), *Blood of the Ancients* (1996) and *The Serpent's Embrace* (2003). Their musical style is characterized by dark and atmospheric sounds, with folk and melodic influences. Some of their most representative songs include *Dark Ritual*, *Blood of the Ancients* and *The Serpent's Embrace*.
