Aphrodite Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Daughter of Cretan Kings
Enticed by the Great White Bull
of Zeus;Riding Him high!
Taken fast out to Sea
Far from her home on land
Taken fast out to Sea
Lost in the Rapture of Storm God
Lost in the Rapture of the Storm
Her Brethren searched endlessly
For Zeus had taken Her away
Off to distant Lands
that would bear Her name
Lost in the Rapture of Storm God
Lost in the Rapture of the Storm
Sing the tale of Europa!
Daughter of Cretan Kings
Enticed by Great White Bull

Her Brethren they searched
For Zeus took her away
