Lyrics:
Why didn’t you ever allow me
To take the first step
So that the dung beetle and I
Would carry the blame.

You preach about beauty and goods
But raise the wave of conscriptions
Then speak of privileges and morals
It must take obstinacy to bring about peace.

I turn into a chess piece of your games
Do you weigh on our oblivion?
Hands fall, heart is astray
And the crowds burst into flames.

I see an ocean-load of guilt,
And its waves rapturing our lives
Our soil and own footsteps
Trampling an olive tree branch.

Peace I sit before you,
As to lament Youth
My ancestor’s poem I shall find again
In the sword’s sharp edge.

Which broke virtues,
Stark and mental boredoms
Aristophanes laughs at me
While Trygaeus seems vexed.
