Lifting the sails of my trireme
Setting course to King Minos' land
Pray to the ancient God of the Seas
To cross his domain

Mountain-high waves crashing the bow
Asking all strength of my slaves
Rowing the seas, domain of the Gods
Getting us save to the island of Crete
Created by Him, the God of the Seas
The God of all Earthquakes and Horses
Setting foot on this island
To capture this snow-white bull

A gift from Poseidon
To be sacrificed to the Gods

Given permission by the mighty King
To take this beast away
Wreaking havoc and uprooting crops
And levelling orchard walls
Killing a dozen of King Minos' guards
In trying to capture this beast
Leaving this monstrosity
For me to take to Tiryns

A gift for King Eurystheus

Poseidon enraged
For the sacrificion of another bull
Made the Queen of Crete
To fall in love with “The White One”
After nine full moons
She gave birth to a monster
Half man, half bull
Known as the Minotaur

As revenge for his misbehavior

Lifting the sails of my trireme
Setting course back to Tiryns
Blessed by King Minos
For being the savior of Crete

Sneaked from behind
Barehanded I throttled this beast
Brought it back, back alive
So not needed to be slaughtered
Eurystheus, servant of Hera
Wanted to sacrifice in Her name
She refused this sacrificion
As it would reflect my glory
