Letra de Reprisal - malis avibus

The ticking hour of Father Time releases memories locked in mind
A wandering beggar digging holes in all unspoken deeds of old
A yellow death lay on his face, a smile so fixed not of this race
Indeed he´d known where he would go, to where he feared it clearly showed

The devil I can safely tell
Has neither hoof, nor tail, nor sting
Nor is he, as some sages swear,
A spirit, neither here nor there
In nothing-yet in everything
He is what we are-a gentleman
A statesman spinning his web of crimes,
A swindler, living as he can

The ticking hour of Father Time released the memories locked in mind
The clock´s monotonous tick obscured to most this man´s so lonely cry
He´d said that with his clenched teeth, he´d seize the earth from underneath
He´d seize the earth from underneath, and drag it with him down to hell
