    O, Krampus Beast

    On Krampus Days, these Krampus Days
    We celebrate Your glory
    Lord Krampus Beast, great Krampus Beast,
    We hail your gory story
    Your sulphur stench withers our youth,
    Your seven tongues can taste our truth
    Your visage at my windowsill;
    I close my eyes yet see you still
    On Krampus Days, these Krampus Days
    We worship Your true Power
    On Krampus Days we offer You
    Our sanity to devour
    Your poison crown of dripping horns
    Will rid us of our human forms
    Oh Krampus Thing, Great Krampus Thing
    You are the One True Winter King
