> LYRICS:

> Explanation taken from the inlay booklet:
>
> "The Black Flame is from The Papyrus Of The Undying, unearthed by Maspero
> in 1883 and quickly disposed of by private auction. A translation of the
> text was later published in an article in the Cairo Archaeological
> Critiques May 1902 and in the book Textes et dessins magiques by G.
> Daressy (Cairo 1903) and reprinted by Lexa in volume 2 of his La Magie
> dans l'Egypte Antique (Paris 1925). The papyrus of the undying was
> generally dismissed as rambling, illogical, profoundly incoherent,
> perverse and profane to such an extent that it became regarded as a curio
> - a minor text of secondary importance that originated from a small,
> uninfluential serpent cult. The papyrus is believed to date to the end of
> the fifth dynasty, about 2350 BC, and appears to be the work of the
> priests of the Cult of Seta. It deals with matters of the underworld,
> afterlife, and magical regenerative formula, as well as several
> blasphemous chapters devoted to the destruction of the sun god Ra. The
> historical value of such questionable material was, at that time, nou
> doubt considered of lesser importance than other more popular works such
> as Budge's new translations of The Book Of The Dead. For this reason, the
> radical and unpopular Papyrus of the Undying fell to dismal obscurity.
> The text did not reappear again until 1912 when it was purchased by Rollo
> Ahmed, a native egyptian cult expert and author of of several books around
> the turn of the century. Mr Ahmed did much further research into the
> papyrus and circulated several new translations of the text. However,
> because of his reputation among legitimate scientists as an occult
> practitioner, largely from his early years soent studying the dark arts at
> first hand in Africa, South America, and Asia, his views and
> interpretations of the Papyrus were dismissed as unsubstantiated, and
> never fully accepted among the mainstream of the academic community of
> his time. The original of the manuscript was quickly acquired by the
> museum of Cairo and put on private display until 1939 when famed Nazi
> occultist Otto Van Anza took it to Germany. Presumed lost during the fall
> of Berlin in 1945, it was recently rediscovered in the burnt out remains
> of a bunker underneath a construction site in east Berlin in 1998. The
> papyrus has been partially restored and is now on private display in the
> Berlin Museum OF Aegyptologie. The lyrics of the Black Flame are taken
> line by line from chapter 36 "The chapter for being reborn". It mentions
> Baboui, the dog-faced ape, guardian of the lake of flames, who feeds upon
> the overturned bodies of the enemies of Osiris--rending, raping and
> devouring the souls of the damned. Baboui also holds the power to open the
> gates of the Duat, or underworld. The chapter seems to be a magickal
> formula for escaping fiery chained imprisonment in the underworld. It
> bears a strong resemblance to Spell 316 of the Pyramid Text Of Unas, but
> seems to have several distinct variations, probably relative to it's use
> by the priests of the Cult of Seta."
>
> BTW: Seta is also known as Set, Satha, and possibly Anhur, but NOT Apophis
> (aka Apep)...apparently Set and Apep are supposed to be enemies, so this
> translation may be innacurate because it calls upon help from both of
> these gods.

> Withdraw thy phallus, Baboui
> Open the gates of the Duat
> For I am burning in Aataakhu
> Chains bind me *I left this line out to save filesize...
> Flames encircle me
> And burn my flesh.
> Open *as above

> For me the gates shall open

> The breath drawn by the gods

> Arise Apophis return
> That I might return
> Born by the flame
> Drawn by the gods who clear the way
> That I might pass
