Lyrics
Lyrics= Beterarium Deus. Mons dormio Deus, Renuntio decerto terra agminatim. Nobis spiritus!

Amatum floris campus, oblivisror fremitus, verecundum sonitus.

Deus obliverat, ratio aeternus Bapulo pluvit, asper ventus, hir passus dona renuntio.

Gradus vita, non est causa. An desiderium caelum

Despecto veneri filia, carpo quan ob rem herba, et e animus, venenum?

Lanquam rota, vapularis, vurnus non sitio terrus bibulum

Lanquam rota, vapularis, vurnus non sitio terrus bibulum

Ura e Deus nos, inter caelum tonitrus, Biolatum corpus, Guerra Lessatum! Utur diabolum ulbis, gehennalis terrarius,

Amor! Oblitus hic me, Desperatio!
 * -|Translation=

O ancient god. O mount-slumbering god, Declaring war on the earthly army. Our spirits!

Flower of love on the wild, forgotten trembling, Rhythm of shyness.

O forgetful god, eternal reason Striks the rain, fiddle with wind, Before abandons its movement.

There's no more meaning to the step of this life. Only the sky longed for remains

Daughter of respect and scorn, What with the herbs in the basket? Remedy to the soul, or poison...?

Like ground by the wheel, The earth quenched before the scars've dried out

Like ground by the wheel, The earth quenched before the scars've dried out

O the god is angered, thunder resounds in the sky, My limbs will be crushed for ceasing the war! Head to the devil's realm, terra of Gehenna,

Beloved, forgets me with despair!
