Cradle Of Filth - Adest Rosa Secreta Eros Lyrics
My number is 11, as all their numbers who are of us.
My colour is black to the blind, but the blue & gold are seen of the seeing.
Also I have a secret glory for them that love me.
But to love me is better than all things:
if under the night stars in the desert thou presently burnest mine incense before me,
thou shalt come a little to lie in my bosom.
For one kiss wilt thou then be willing to give all;
but whoso gives one particle of dust shall lose all in that hour.
Ye shall wear rich jewels; ye shall exceed the nations of the earth in spendour & pride;
but always in the love of me, and so ye shall come to my joy.
I love you! I yearn to you! Pale or purple, veiled or voluptuous,
I who am all pleasure and purple, and drunkenness of the innermost sense, desire you.
Put on the wings, and arouse the coiled splendour within you: come unto me!
I am the Snake that giveth Knowledge & Delight and bright glory, and stir the hearts of men with drunkenness.
To worship me take wine and strange drugs whereof I will tell my prophet, & be drunk thereof!
They shall not harm ye at all. It is a lie, this folly against self.
The exposure of innocence is a lie.
Be strong, o man! lust, enjoy all things of sense and rapture: fear not that any God shall deny thee for this.
Let the Scarlet Woman beware!
If pity and compassion and tenderness visit her heart;
if she leave my work to toy with old sweetnesses; then shall my vengeance be known.
I will slay me her child:
I will alienate her heart:
I will cast her out from men:
as a shrinking and despised harlot shall she crawl through dusk wet streets, and die cold and an-hungered.
But let her raise herself in pride!
Let her follow me in my way!
Let her work the work of wickedness!
Let her kill her heart!
Let her be loud and adulterous!
Let her be covered with jewels, and rich garments, and let her be shameless before all men!
Then will I lift her to pinnacles of power: then will I breed from her a child mightier

Cradle Of Filth Adest Rosa Secreta Eros Comments
5:01-5:47 Sounds like what smoking weed feels like.
is everyone just ignoring the fact that this song is called "the rose is a secret peanut" but in latin
Thank you Dani for bringing this piece to life
How is this the first time I heard this?
im wondering the same thing lol. i never seen this before
Wevos esta bien luche culero a no mas culero eres tu por robarte vides hijo de perra eres un puto vago que envés de heder sus propios vídeos dislike por ipocrita
fucking 666 perfect in your noise mother fuckeur antichrist of bitch blasphemator :P
So hardcore
yes, yes that is from a horror movie. contrary to what you were thinking just then, I DO know what I'm doing.
i got my cradle back, now it works <3 not saying its best band as i use to aaah :D... and btw yes they never got bad, and respect for that they changed style almost every album a bit. need cuts to change style and make just that kinda msic what u like, but i prefer their earlier stuff, its just so fucking unique, and i can't compare it whit anything, its just art. songs like. splattered in faeces,the raping of faith, as my stomach churns, unbrilled at dusk and this fetid dank oasis, i recommend
I disagree, I don't think the stuff after 93 is "awful".
yes but if their stuff gets u what they did before principal of evil made flesh,everything after 93 sounds awful only because old cof is pure art and most unique death metal or what ever u wanna call it
ya ill kick their ass
I never thought COF would release a good album after Dusk And Her Embrace
Oh that makes sense then, I didn't get the pre-release version. Okay, well thanks.
i have to say that thornography and the other 2002-2009 albums were not that great but this & MitL & the manticore and other horrors are pretty nice again..!
yes you got it if you pre-ordered the album before its release, they mailed me a code for the warehouse i ordered it so i could download it there...excuse my bad english pls
This is the from the special fan edition
The only thing I don't like about the new cradle is their slight tendency towards repetitiveness in their songs, I must emphasize the word slight though. Otherwise they're just as epic as they ever were.
You're welcome :)
Ah, thank you.
Darkly, Darkly, Venus Aversa (Special Fan Edition) :)
Genial song
Difference: Cradle never got bad.
I own darkly, darkly. This song is not on it, I'm not even sure which album this song is on, but I need to know. Someone, do tell me.
This a perfect song, and a wonderful lyrics, really i worship this album
Cthonic-49 Threugy chains
what vid are you talking about?
This song feels like Bal Sagoth.
Bei tempi quelli di midian
Zamyel vero ora sono peggiorati
0:56 sound like Megadeth
Sometimes kaybord-girl singing too....
Asian metal bands tend to dress super feminine. It's the style and the ladies seem to like it. So power to them. xD
It was in the Special Edition. It came with 4(if my memory serves me correct) songs not in the original.
Who said that new Cradle sucks?
the vocalist isnt a girl... lmao ik he looks mad feminine in the Vid (IDK WHATS UP WITH THAT) but hes not a girl
stop that dimmu is great too and both are really good bands in their own way..
F#cking ripper lyrics \m/ \m/
the pause at 6:16 is so fucking epic
well i like Cthonic better then both of them im just saying they r equals
COF is actually quite a lot better than DB, but they're both the best metal bands I know of.
That's true.
I find my enjoyment of a song on youtube is severely hindered by reading the comments.
they r equal in my books
podia ser PORNOGRAPHY AO INVES DE THORNOGRAPHY
Dude...oui. I totally get you. I'm merely talking respect for decisions made by talented professionals. We can have our personal preferences, yet the bashing is just our bratty inner-child coming out when it happens. (Hear that, elitists???!!!) I'm just as old school. I really only pay attention to "Dusk And Her Embrace" nowadays...But, it's still all respectfully well done dark music.
Aw, Jeez...really?! But yeah. Take it from a guy who's been a gigging metal musician for some 18 years (just hinting that I know a *little* about it)- Just because a band is popular (Cradle) is no reason to a) compare them to a band that has nothing to do with them, just because they are similar in popularity ranking and wear makeup. and b) Write them off as a band that "sucks" because a lot of people know about them. A lot of people eat steak. I'm not gonna go vegan, for fuck'sake.
Man, I've been trying to figure that out for a long time. I've been listening to Cradle since the 90s, and all of that started shortly after, from what I've observed.
They are both comparable to homosexuality, which means they are both gay.
MaharlikaAWA Shut up. You're probably just a belieber
amazing ssssssssssssssssssssssssss
wow ! this song is just amazing ! real art with talent !
Plus cradle have been around longer then dimmu as well
Yah anyone that says cradle is not black metal is a black metal fanboy even tho they arent anymore they never said they were in the first place they are their own genre and dimmu borgir has gone down hill since death cult dimmu should have nothing to do with cradle but people keep comparing them which is stupid
why does everyone talk about dimmu borgir at a cradle of filth song? is there some connection between those bands?
dimmu borgir is good but cof amazing
Personally I happen to like Cradle better than Dimmu. But I think you can't really compare those two, I really like Dimmu aswell. Sometimes Dimmu Borgir fits the situation when Cradle doesn't.
So what... Only black is true. Only black is real... Pure Fucking Mayhem!
I see what he means but I disagree.
And i dont like them much. Sometimes i try...
I will say I prefer Mustis' work over any Cradle keyboardist ever. Even though I love what Martin brought to the table... can't hold a candle to Mustis
Cradle and Dimmu have both been around forever. You can't really compare the two, it's just which band you prefer more. l personally can't choose between the two. I like Dimmu just as much as Cradle. If someone prefers one over the either... heaven forbid we agree to disagree! hahaha
They are not at all "Cradle WANNABES!". Dimmu have their own thing; so too do Cradle. You cant even justifiably *compare* the two. Their goals - whilst not a million aeons apart from each-other - are utterly different. They're not even in competition with each-other for fuck sake.
This song...I listen to this song at least once a day. It's just way too well crafted to be ignored for a day.
I like them both....
Ha! more better than listening to music that sings about money, sex, and drugs
Completely agree! Dimmu Borgir are just Cradle WANNABES! Hails to Cradle!!!
"Ye shall wear rich jewels,
Ye shall exceed the nations of the earth in spendour & pride..."
omg.... fucking awesome... fuuuuuck... when is this coming out??
this album is just shit don't have any song good,dany filth just work for the imperialism ,the real music don't care him ,is just my opinion, i don't have intention to offend anyone but if i do, DON'T CARE ME XD
just respect both bands, dimmu borgier and cradle of filth are both great, its just opinion. there is no equation making any better than the other
@filth69ify1
cos thornography wasn't complete shit lol.
whats funnier than people who mislabel bands, is little goth kids like you who get so butthurt when someone says anything they dont agree with about the bands they like.
:D
CRADLE! CRADLE! ALL HAIL! CRADLE!
You know what I find fucking awesome? This one song Cradle composed about Aleister Crowley's The Book of the Law, is a hundred times better than Dimmu Borgir's Abrahadabra, which the whole album was dedicated to The Book of the Law. Cradle, absolutely amazing.
This album was a rather large disappointment. some good stuff, but overall... meh.
Thank you soo much for sharing! <3
Whuuut??!
This song isn't on my double CD >.<
Which version is this? :O
at the start ...reminds nox arcana..=/
AWESOME :D
@AlucardaDark lillith in the apocrapha (sp?) she is the first wife of adam but then she decided she wanted to basically rule over both adam and god so god cursed her so in a sense she is kind of the female verson of satan
@fireblastedwasteland
Same here. Got it at their concert in Philadelphia in March 2011
Fuckin' "A"
love that one soooo much..rly i just gonna crazy more & more about that band!
@fireblastedwasteland
why you think i'm looking especially for that one :)
ooooooow,this is great!fantastic album!i'm a big fan of cradle
From the point of view of the story of this album, I beg you guys to tell me WHO is the one speaking here as I am really unsure.. is it Satan? Or some other.. mysterious someone? message me if you've got the slightest idea, thanks.
okay...gonna give it a try: i'm still looking for a shirt from COF. (a wolf in creep's clothing)..i've searched the internet for months but can't find it anywhere :(.
does anyone has a clue where i can find this shirt. .
lammegoedzak I'm sure you've tried ordering it directly from COF themselves... Surprised you can't/couldn't find that one. You can get them in Dublin alright.
OH, it's 'a secret glory'.
I was pretty sure it was 'a secret blowie'.
Paaaah. THIS is the Cradle I know. Belting riffs, climaxes, mesmerising poetry and a hint of an orchestra. Not that constant blastbeat stuff they often churn out. :}
@Taotrac my feiends while i agree with you that thornography was "based on dark fairytale-esque melodies"
Her ghost in the fog does not sound nothing like any song in Thornography .
@Taotrac The album is not in fact about dark fairytale-esque melodies it is about Lord Byron and his experiences! But can't deny it is great!
kinda getting sick of everyone saying "I wish Dani's voice was the same as the early days of COF" how about, YOU scream and screech like he has for 20 years, and see if your voice is the same.
@adam123456789097531 i pretty much like all of cradles music old and new
Aleister warned the book of law should not be study or memorize. I got my hands on a copy read it once and pass it on. This song creeps me out.
I like how he used the Book of the Law written by Aleister Crowley. I think it was pretty amazing!
@Taotrac hell yes, they are the least sellout band, if mainstream is what you want to call i would hardly consider them pop culture, thornography was on of those transitional albums when they got new band members, i like it alot, i never question his music, for you never question the art of an artist
@lonewolf5925 Was that English?
@fraternovaeres Also noticed that that was a verbatim from The Book of the Law:or,Liber AL vel Legis. Undulyingly, most are tempting to assert their 'superegogatory evaluation" rather than see that the artists coalesced many differing elements to nascent a musickal ployglot. Bravo Fraternovaeres.
encore un bijoux merci dani
ATTENTION TO ALL.....SATAN IS NOTHING ! HE IS NOT THE AIR TO THE THRONE OF THE UNDERWORLD ITS HERS.........LILITH IS THE QUEEN SHE IS THE MOTHER OF ALL NOCTURNE CREATURES
All the cradle haters that liked cradles early music must check out a new band called "Lamia Antitheus" go to their myspace they fucking copied cradles early material note by note but they still sound awsome. unfortunately for Lamia Antitheus no Band can take Cradle of Filths place no matter how hard they try CRADLE FOREVER!!
You gotta evolve with the artists you love. If you can't change with them, leave them behind, don't dwell on hatred.
Thornography sucked fucking dick.
