Spirits rising from their grave
(Rhy fig 1a)

Burning shadows in the dead of night

(Rhy fig 5c / 5e)

"Beyond the graves lies the gate
(Rhy fig 5c)

the gate that leads to the dead
(Rhy fig 5f)

We have to leave before the dawn
(Rhy fig 5c)

if not by the sun we will burn"
(Rhy fig 5g)

Spirits rising from their grave
(Rhy fig 1a)
