Ouranian Cyclops Lyrics


You, three brothers born with only one eye

Exile became your life

Ouranos your father decided to get rid of you

Fearing you to turn against him

With your deformed appearance

And your incredible strength

Hurled you down in the Tartar

To secure his celestial supremacy

Ouranian Cyclops

Nameless dwellers of hell

Banished because threatening

Divinities preferred to expel you

From the Olympian kingdom

Twice banished, twice released

First time delivered by your mother Gaia

Brother Kronos and the titanic horde

To get over with the Ouranian reign

Once your father defeated

Your brother enthroned

And your job carried out

In the struggle for Olympus sovereignty

Kronos, to keep his domination on the kingdom

Sent you back in the Tartar

Nameless dwellers of hell

Banished because threatening

Divinities preferred to expel you

From the Olympian kingdom

Second time, Zeus

Survivor of Kronos' infanticide feast

Came to save you from your jail

Grateful to you savior

You'll forge lightning, thunder and thunderbolt

Who'll strike the infantivore father

To commemorate

Your primordial role in this strife

Your weapons, (lightning) "Asteropes"

(thunder) "Brontes" and (thunderbolt) "Arges"

Became your names

Grateful to those who emerged you from obscurity

You gave Hades an invisibility helmet

To Poseidon his trident

And to Zeus thunder and lightning
