In Wicca one of the most important sacred texts  is the Charge of the
Goddess. It is a text which originates from Crowley and which is
adapted and revised (and made much more beautiful) by Doreen Valiente.
She never wrote a Charge of the God, but there are many parralel
pieces written by others. I did some googling and this text is by
Chtistopher Hatton. What is important here is that Death is not seen
as something bad, but as a necessary part of the circle of death and
rebirth which gives people the opportunity for spititual growth. Not
something LV would be able to see. So I don't think this will give any
clues to the prophecy, and I'm fairly sure JKR did not use this, because 
1) this is an unknown text, even if you are Wiccan, so almost no one
would be able to have fun with the clues.
2) When she uses occult material it is clear she knows what she is
writing about, though she uses it in her own way and she does not
believe in it. Interpteting this text the way you do, makes clear that
 -sorry - you don't understand it at all. 

The text itself is inspired by The Song of Amergin, a very well known
rext from Irish mythology.

Thanks for the text b.t.w. I love it.
