I've chosen the dark, I've chosen the night
 
 I've lost hope of loving a day of life
 
 The shades of night belong to me
 
 I am at one with hell
 
  
  Dead inside, I watch the time pass
 
 I wait the coming of my day
  
 
 My journeys are always within me
 
 There where is found the bottomless pit
 
 Where, there in I plunge, always a little deeper
 
 There, in that other world where only unity is harmony
  
 
 Sheltered from the regard and rules of men
 
 Their colour is absent, light is black
  
 
 Enemies of the sun, the phantoms of the shadows
 
 Have taught me to delight in horror
 
 Faces without eyes, and silent lips
 
 Float in the immensity of empty space
 
 A sweet melancholy fills my heart
 
 Life as a whole seems absurd
 
 Silence is so pure, so profound that it intoxicates
 
 The emptiness, annihilates all
 
 And nothingness takes its place
