|
Rising sun is beginning |
|
Poseidon seems appeased today |
|
The sea is clam, the breeze slight |
|
My ship glides slowly over the water |
|
I've been lost for many times |
|
I've been waiting for many months to come back to my country |
|
After our victory over the Trojan enemy |
|
Me... Ulysses... Searching for the road of salvation! |
|
Today arises another trial |
|
Wizard Medea has warned me of the danger |
|
The peril of sailing near Anthemoessa Island |
|
Land inhabited by malefic creatures |
|
Birds women, cruel virgins, famous sirens |
|
Who charmed the most intrepid sailors |
|
To wreck them on reefs |
|
And devour them with no mercy |
|
I have undergone many hardships... |
|
I have defeated many monsters... |
|
But this time... How could I struggle against such deadly angels? |
|
How resist their bewitching voices? |
|
Their so captivating and perfidious tunes? |
|
Me... Ulysses... Searching for the road of salvation! |
|
Setting sun is just beginning |
|
The sea is abnormally quiet and there is a sudden breeze |
|
A breathless calm settles on the waves |
|
And my crew is seized by terror |
|
Here we are! |
|
Sirens are approaching... |
|
Only I can resist their dangerous organ |
|
I make my companions plug their ears with wax |
|
And make them tie me to the ship mast |
|
Ordering to them to tie it tighter |
|
Every time I moan for them to release me |
|
Under the hold of this terrible malediction |
|
Their admirable voices fill my heart with the desire to listen |
|
I will not resist... Please unchain me!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
|
But more I scream. More my sailors tighten even more |
|
The ties that imprison me |
|
While the rest of the crew rows even more forcefully |
|
To leave this damned island |
|
Me... Ulysses... Once again I have won! |
|
I have survived the terrible sirens! |
|
Now, can I continue my destiny |
|
And find at last... The road of salvation! |
