Lyrics

[Music, lyrics and effects: de feis]

[The serpent to himself:]
"Anger, fury and hatred boil within me
Woe to see them enjoy this paradise, while I'm resigned to hell!!
My cunning will prevail and doubt shall be their undoing!"

[The serpent to eve:]
"What reason, what fear provokes this ban?
Knowledge forbidden?
Why envy you this?
Is it a sin to know, can it be death to taste?
Is ignorance your creator's wish for you
Or is blind obedience a proof of your faith?!..
Take from the tree this golden fruit, be one with the gods!
I tell you this freely with love in my heart
Come your beauty has earned this..."
