Westwards I set my sails To the land of Tartessos The land of a fearsome giant A monster with three human faces
One body, three heads And three sets of limbs On the island of Erytheia This herder of magnificent cattle
Guarded by a snake-tailed two-headed dog Together with Eurytion Mortal son of "The Red One" Son of the daughters and nymphs
Slave of this monstrosity Misled by Poseidon God of the oceans Setting foot on the southern wastelands
No food, no food, no water in this dehydrated land I shot an arrow at the golden sun Helios, god of sun Lend to me your chariot of gold
I will fly it to Geryon To obtain his cattle And bring it to Tiryns To my archfiend Eurystheus
Hiding for my arrival Deep down in the ground As soon as I reached Erytheia I was confronted with the two-headed dog
Sibling of the guard of Tartarus I put it down with one single blow The herdsman of the cattle of Geryon Came to Orthrus assistance
This hesperid-mother's son Killed by my strength Wearing his triple armour suit With shields, spears and helmets
Geryon sprang into action Awoken from their screams and deadly cries Geryon chased me throughout his domain To the river of Anthemus
I ambushed this monstrosity This three-headed giant And shot an arrow between his eyes Arrow with the blood of the Hydra forcefully shot
I pierced his mortal skull Traveling back, Passing the Aventine hill Cattle stolen by the fire-breathing son
Betrayed by his sister, Killed with my club Getting back safe with the cattle In my beloved homelandTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
