Prometheus [English translation]
Prometheus [English translation]
Recognize the people
Their spirit is frozen
Forced to live
in eternal night
Listen to their complaints
Their enemy is the cold
Damned to wait
in eternal watch
In the tail of the comets
before clouds black as night
I descend from Heaven, burning
My hand holds fire
My mind the knowledge
I'll carry the commandments
of the gods to my grave
I bring you fire
to recognize the power
I bring you fire,
and the wrath of the gods on the world
I bring you fire
the power to burn
I bring you fire
and the ashes that fall from Heaven
To know means freedom
to decide for yourself
No destiny
is conceived by the gods
the inflame the spirit
The seed of knowledge
has made gods
of the people.
My work is done,
the boundaries have fallen
Ignorance, a broken curse
However my punishment
will appear unfathomable
like a book
written by the gods
I bring you fire
to recognize the power
I bring you fire,
and the wrath of the gods on the world
I bring you fire
the power to burn
I bring you fire
and the ashes that fall from Heaven
Forged in steel
chained on the mountain
damned by the gods
saved by no one
My eternal body
a meal for the eagle
The eternal punishment
in the Caucasus valley
I bring you fire
to recognize the power
I bring you fire,
A blaze that lights up the night
I bring you fire
the power to burn
I bring you fire
and the ashes that fall from Heaven
I bring you fire
I bring you fire
I bring you fire
the power to burn
I bring you fire
and the ashes that fall from Heaven
