LYRICS:
Cries the girl in chains,
Guilty of no crime
Victim of her mother's
Arrogance
Where rocks meet sea waters
She's waiting for her doom
There's no hope left while her
Tears fall down
Cold steel on white arms,
Lost deeply in her anguish,
Like a statue she is
Standing still
The cruelest sacrifice
To appease the godly wrath:
Virgin blood will clean the
Parent's stain
Oh, rejoice pretty maiden
The gods are smiling at you now
The storm is almost over,
The harbour is nearby
Glorious help is coming from the sky:
Out of nowhere he stands before her
Spellbound by the beauty of Andromeda
Sweet chains tied Perseus
Winged feet to speed him through the clouds,
Like an eagle he dives on his prey.
On and on he sinks the sword beneath the scales
Before the innocent maid
[Solo: Mirko]
Glorious help came straight down from the sky:
Out of nowhere he stood before her
Glorious help came straight down from the sky:
Out of nowhere he stood before her
Spellbound by the beauty of Andromeda,
Sweet chains tied Perseus
Winged feet sped him right through the clouds,
Like an eagle he dove on his prey
On and on he sank the sword beneath the scales
Until the monster died
Glorious help came straight down from the sky:
Out of nowhere he stood before her
Spellbound by the beauty of Andromeda,
Sweet chains tied Perseus
Shouts of praise and joy salute the hero
While the freed girl walks on the shore
Neverending glory and deep gratitude
Have been won by his feats
