Hand of Glory

Disturbing the peace
Of the night for a raid
Stealing goods taken
Through greed

A playtoy transcendental
Powers had made
This is the thing
That you need

Hand of glory!
Stopping all the sleepers
From awakening this night

Hand of glory!
Witchcraft triumphs in joy
While the fingers are set alight

All who live in
This house fell asleep
The hand was making
Them drowse

Now there's time to
Take all that you need
No hindrance to plundering
This house

Hand of glory!
Stopping all the sleepers
From awakening this night

Hand of glory!
Witchcraft triumphs in joy
While the fingers are set alight

First you need a hanged man's corpse
Cut off the left hand and preserve it
But dress it not with tannin pure
Witches know the right mixture

The hand makes successful
Your robbery well
But just take care
Of the thumb

If it don't burn someone's
Not in the spell
And he'll discover
Your plan

Hand of glory!
Stopping all the sleepers
From awakening this night

Hand of glory!
Witchcraft triumphs in joy
While the fingers are set alight
