The Nine Ghosts of the Ring of Power
Osculum Infame Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Where born the fabulous Rings of Power
Their work of domination started with Ancient Kings,
Warriors and Wizards -
Perverted by glory and power
Became the slave of the Lord of the Ring:
Spectral were their appearances
As though mere shadows in darkness...
Nazgël, damned souls of the tenebrous Lord...
The Night walks with them:
Death howls from their mouths
Knights of Chaos, riding obscure Dragons...
Horrifying apparitions led by the madness
Of the Prince of barad-Dër
With a blind devotion
The Army of Mordor gathered about
The sinister towers of Minas Morgul
A cursed fortress for the Black Ghosts;
Where forbidden sorcery is practiced.
The beginning of War, marching
To an epic battle against golden armour:
The Chronicle of the Infinite Quest
[Autumn 1996]
The Nine Ghosts of the Ring of Power is a song that delves into the world of J.R.R. Tolkien's Middle-earth, specifically exploring the creation and influence of the Rings of Power. The opening lines set the tone for the song, invoking the name of Sauron, the main antagonist of the Lord of the Rings trilogy. The Rings of Power, which were forged by Sauron, are described as tools of domination that corrupted the hearts and minds of their bearers, turning them into slaves of the Lord of the Ring.
The song goes on to describe the Nazgul, the nine ringwraiths who were once kings, warriors, and wizards, but have been transformed into spectral beings by the power of the Rings. They are described as horrifying apparitions who ride on obscure dragons, spreading death and chaos wherever they go. The Army of Mordor, led by Sauron, gathers around Minas Morgul, a cursed fortress where forbidden sorcery is practiced. The stage is set for an epic battle between the forces of good and evil, and the song hints at the endlessness of this struggle with its final line: "The Chronicle of the Infinite Quest."
Overall, The Nine Ghosts of the Ring of Power is a song that captures the darkness and dread of Tolkien's world. It reminds us of the corrupting influence of power and the terrible cost of greed and ambition.
