(Intro) [short instrumental] Verse 1: In shadows deep, where secrets dwell, The First arise, from Caliban’s knell. With sword and faith, we guard the light, Knights of the Emperor, in endless night... "Honora Leonem, Purga Lapsos...!" [choir] Chorus: O Lion bold, thy name we sing, In Terra’s grace, our blades shall ring. Dark Angels march, unyielding, true, For Emperor’s will, we hunt anew... "Leo Rugit, Tenebrae Fugit" [choir]. Verse 2: Our cloaks of green, our hearts of stone, We bear the sin that none may know. The Fallen hide, their shame a stain, We seek their souls through endless pain... "Honora Leonem, Purga Lapsos...!" [choir] Chorus: O Lion bold, thy name we sing, In Terra’s grace, our blades shall ring. Dark Angels march, unyielding, true, For Emperor’s will, we hunt anew... "Leo Rugit, Tenebrae Fugit" [choir]. Verse 3: In fortress vast, the Rock endures, Its halls of oath, forever pure. With bolter, blade, and sacred rite, We purge the dark, we bring the light... "Honora Leonem, Purga Lapsos...!" [choir] Bridge: Absolve nos, Emperor, our burdens bear, Forgive the shadows we must wear. In silence sworn, our vigil kept, For Caliban’s fall, we have wept... "Leo Rugit, Tenebrae Fugit" [choir]. Chorus: O Lion bold, thy name we sing, In Terra’s grace, our blades shall ring. Dark Angels march, unyielding, true, For Emperor’s will, we hunt anew... "Leo Rugit, Tenebrae Fugit" [choir]. Verse 4: Through warp and void, our quest remains, To cleanse the past, to break the chains. No rest, no peace, till all are found, The First shall tread on hallowed ground... "Honora Leonem, Purga Lapsos...!" [choir] Outro: In nomine Imperator, we stand as one, Dark Angels eternal, till duty’s done. O Caliban lost, O Lion revered, In shadows we serve, our honor unfeared... "Honora Leonem, Purga Lapsos...!" [choir] "Leo Rugit, Tenebrae Fugit" [choir]. 'Ave Imperator'...! [END].
