Hymn To Zagreus lyrics

Sing,

Of Zagreus, oh muse

Slayer of hydras

First of his name

Born

Of Zeus as a serpent

In spite of Queen Hera

Zagreus came

Torn

To shreds by the Titans

Devoured in pieces

From his heart aflame

The seed

Of Dionysus grew

The God of wine and feast anew

To live

At home on Olympus

Never presuming

His origins true

Wrath

Of thunder and lightning

Struck down the Titans

Burned into sand

Up

From out of the ashes

Born of the Titans

The mortals did stand

To live

The model of the gods

At once divine and further flawed

In twain

The blood of immortals

Of Zagreus ending

It flows in their veins

The prince

Under the mortal ring

Prisoner to his king

Never to leave

Steadfast

Endlessly toiling

Doomed to remain

Endlessly toiling

Doomed to remain
