Lyrics
Oh, loving father
Drenched in glory
Why did you take them?
The children, their fire: this mixture of poison
This ritual for paradise
Your freedom obtained by filicide
A father
Oh, so loving
"Breathe, my child"
The father muttered to a lifeless son
Gazing into fading, frigid eyes
"Breathe!"
He exclaimed as panic gripped his withered lungs
The tragic realization of transgression
Branched its way into the
Heart
A seaside burial was in order
For the sons and daughters
Torn asunder
"Children, may you rest now"
These words were carried by the wind
The water listened closely
To the distant cries of the deceased
"We shall grant you life to punish the betrayer"
The waves had spoken with disgust
Towards the mortal man
Tiny limbs arose
From the sands of the shore
They marched upon the hillside
To share with their creator
The tragedy that they endured
"Seek out reprisal and bring his body to the sea"
