You Who Immolate Lyrics


Burn with lust among the oaks

Under every green tree

You who immolate children in the wadies

Among the clefts of the rocks

Whom did you dread and fear

That you told lies

And me you did not remember

Nor take to heart?

When you cry out

Let your collection of idols save you

All these the wind shall carry off

A mere breath shall bear them away
