Thalatta Thalatta

Hapless pawns of the heavens sent

Seek in my destruction a monument

A semblance of glory to fall their way

Yet my heart's gambit has its say

And they have discovered to their cost

That this is my triumph and they have lost



Oh gods, laugh your fill

Toy with me

Exert your will

You will never subdue me

For in her heart I'm always free

No matter what you have in store

I live in another, always pure

Thalatta, Thalatta, the sea in sight

My soul's heavy load made now light



The victim's part too well learnt

For me to take on the villain's role

I deny you, fates, three times and more

Scream at you 'til my throat is sore

Your minions left to their fruitless toil

As from false idols now I've turned
