On a sun burned plain Where the thousand years sand hid the ruins Of the city of columns where No man has ever lived I stand in the middle of the circle of salt I draw with my crow claw The name of the ancients Who are remembered only by the time
In the name of Nyarlathotep I conjure Yog Sothoth "The one who lives among shadows" To show me the way I tremble seeing how the eye of the moon Uncovers pale stumps of the ancient city Like claws of the gigantic corpse Shining venomous glare of decay
I fall on my face, in the middle of the circle I twist and twine in pain Something stitched my bowels Like oil, was poured into my bones Heaven was covered by the misty glow Stinking and cold - unimaginabily evil "The one who has no name" noticed me From behind the abyss of time and the angles of space...
I heard the hum of worms And the flapping of millions of small wings I know that my time is running out Becuse "The one who has no name" leads me... For my name is Abdul Alhazred And I wrote down the names of unknown creatures I will be cursed by nations and gods As long as the human race thinks that it rules the world...
