When bright-eyed Bacchus in leopard-skin cloak 
dances on slopes of Mount Vesuvius, 
my heart swells whole with passion for the truth 
that urges me to rise on demon wings 
and with compassion for the common folk 
oppose the tyrant in grand hall of gold. 

With Sisyphus I roll the Justice Stone 
up to the top of Helicon at dawn, 
then aim its power at idol of greed 
with feet of clay, though its head glitters gold, 
to free humanity from tyranny 
so we can dance with Bacchus in the rain. 

Sweet grapes that swell from soul of sun and rain, 
transforming soil of sorrow into juice, 
I drink pure liquor of your timeless truth 
that sparks weird visions in my flashing brain 
till I feel power of divinity 
animate my clay body with God Light. 

Born from fertile womb of the scarlet moon, 
graceful Selena with star-silver eyes, 
wild Bacchus leads us dancing in the woods 
to free our hearts from sorrow of hard work 
so we can worship wise Astaria 
who sings in temple on her ziggurat. 

Through bitter darkness of the raging storm, 
that shatters homes we built with crafting hands, 
we see star lamp of holy Liberty 
gleam bright in hand of wise Astaria 
whose voice inspires our aching hearts with hope 
when she recites Creation of the World. 

No matter how deep in the wilderness 
I wander on grand mission of my heart 
in quest to find the Holy Grail of Life, 
I see bright light of Liberty shine clear 
as beacon on tall ziggurat of faith 
that guides me safely on the road back home. 

All lies of politicians dissipate 
as smoke of guns in gust of holy wind 
when wise Astaria speaks words of faith 
for simple is oration of the truth 
while cruel deceptive lies twist facts in knots 
that bind our hearts with hope for fantasies. 

When Bacchus leads us to the apple grove 
that flourishes on Mount Parnassus slope, 
he teaches us to spot deceptive tricks 
that cheaters use to scam us of our wealth, 
secured by laws of wise Astaria 
who guards the world so we may all live free.
