The Creation Of Inugami

Warlocks of a great nobility
With the knowledge of many secrets
Yet their deeds are malignant and vile.

If an evil act is needed to
Bring misfortune upon a victim
Inugami is to be conjured.

One is to take a dog and
Bury it into the ground until
Only the head is visible above.

Then install two bowls of food
And water before the critter's snout
Close, but so that they
still cannot be reached.

When the wreched beast is driven
Mad with hallucinations and craze
Take a blade and sever
the animal's head.

Bury it under a street and burn the
Flesh and bones, then put the ashes
On an altar and pronounce the spell:

殺戮 された 霊魂
黄泉の 国 から来い
死の 睡眠 から 起きて
足枷を 捨てなさい
僕 の敵 の不幸を 作れ
激怒 を 実 現 し な さ い!

(Satsuriku sareta reikon
Yomi no kuni kara koi
Shi no suimin kara okite
Ashikase wo sutenasai
Boku no teki no fuko wo tsukure
Gekido wo jitsugen shinasai.

Ye, the butchered soul
Come from the underworld
Wake from the sleep of death
And dispose of your shackles
Craft the misfortune of my enemies
And fulfill my will)

The creation of the Dog-God!
