Morgana
Lord Vampyr Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When first he takes from out the hidden shrine
His god imprisoned in the Eucharist,
And eats the bread, and drinks the dreadful wine,
Feels not such awful wonder as I felt
When first my smitten eyes beat full on thee,
And all night long before thy feet I knelt
You are my lady. my dark desire
Follow the call. of your beloved
Like a dance. dance in the fire
Follow the call. of your prince
Through the forest. I'm awaiting for you
Oh your white neck. your veins
I'm awaiting. my thirst is great
Oh your hot blood. on my mouth
Tonight we'll become one
Lost souls in black
A dark embrace of lust
A dark enchantment
A dark sensation of eternity
Tomorrow you'll see a new world
With your eyes of vampire
You will taste the blood of your victim
Oh Morgana. my dark lady
My dark desire
Tonight will become immortal
Lord Vampyr's song "Morgana" paints a picture of a dark and passionate love. The opening lines draw a parallel between the feeling of a young priest taking communion and the singer's own experience of seeing his love interest for the first time. The use of the phrase "god imprisoned in the Eucharist" creates a sense of reverence and awe, which is then transferred to the object of the singer's affection. The intense infatuation with this person is characterized by a worshipful attitude, as the singer describes kneeling before them until they are "wearied of idolatry."
The second half of the song contains an explicit invitation to the object of the singer's desire. He urges her to follow her beloved (presumably him) and to "dance in the fire" with him. The imagery of the dance suggests a passionate, sexual connection between the two. He describes his anticipation of her arrival, emphasizing her beauty and the allure of her blood. The final lines of the song promise immortality through their connection, as the singer addresses the object of his affections as "Morgana," a name that is often associated with powerful female sorceresses.
Overall, "Morgana" is a highly charged and evocative song that explores themes of love, desire, and the mystical power of blood. Through poetic language and vivid imagery, Lord Vampyr creates a dark and alluring world in which the boundaries between life and death, love and obsession, are blurred.
Line by Line Meaning
Dear heart, I think the young impassioned priest
I believe the young and passionate priest
When first he takes from out the hidden shrine
As he takes the imprisoned God from the secret shrine
His god imprisoned in the Eucharist,
His God trapped within the Eucharist
And eats the bread, and drinks the dreadful wine,
And consumes the bread and the terrible wine
Feels not such awful wonder as I felt
He does not feel the same terrible wonder as I did
When first my smitten eyes beat full on thee,
When I first laid eyes upon you and was struck by love
And all night long before thy feet I knelt
And I remained on my knees all night long at your feet
Till thou wert wearied of Idolatry..
Until you had grown tired of my worshipful behavior
You are my lady. my dark desire
You are my lady, my intense longing
Follow the call. of your beloved
Answer the summons of your love
Like a dance. dance in the fire
Let us move together like a dance, flickering in the flames
Follow the call. of your prince
Follow the beckoning of your princely figure
Through the forest. I'm awaiting for you
In the woods, I'm anticipating your arrival
Oh your white neck. your veins
Oh, your neck so white, your veins visible beneath
I'm awaiting. my thirst is great
I am waiting, my thirst is intense
Oh your hot blood. on my mouth
How I crave your warm blood upon my lips
Tonight we'll become one
Tonight, we will merge as one
Lost souls in black
Doomed spirits adorned in dark garb
A dark embrace of lust
An erotic, ominous embrace
A dark enchantment
A sinister, magical spell
A dark sensation of eternity
A wicked, everlasting feeling
Tomorrow you'll see a new world
Tomorrow, you will bear witness to a new realm
With your eyes of vampire
Through the eyes of a vampire
You will taste the blood of your victim
You will savor the blood of your prey
Oh Morgana. my dark lady
Oh Morgana, my wicked lady
My dark desire
My intense yearning
Tonight will become immortal
Tonight, we shall attain immortality
