"Paradise is under
The shadow of blades"
I can't help but wonder
What's out of the shade
Atlas is under
The weight of the sky
Zeus cast his thunder
Before my dimmed eye
Paradise is under
The spectre of woe
Will you ever wonder
Who is friend or foe
Olympus is over
Dominion of man
Hyacinthe and clover
Of high ancient land
The sunbasked hills of
Persia at first light
Persephone above
To Hades, at night
To darkness and gloom
Of the Underworld
"Trouves, trouves-nous
Sommeil dans les noir"
Paradise is under
The thunder of drums
I can't help but wonder
When judgement day comes
All my experience
And senescence
I can't tell the difference
Between peace and blindness
