Within a hidden cave nymphs had kept a child; Hermaphroditus son of gods so afraid of their love. [Verse 2] As the dawn creeps up the sky     Am9           Am6        Emadd4 The hunter caught sight of a doe. In desire for conquest He found himself within a glade he’d not beheld before. [Bridge]   "Where are you my father?    Give wisdom to your son" [Verse 3] Am9        Am6               Emadd4 And as his strength began to fail He saw a shimmeriiiiiiing lake.   A shadow in the dark green depths Disturbed the strange tranquility. [Bridge]    "The waters are disturbed    Some creature has been stirred" [Instrumental interlude] | /  /  /  / | /  /  /  / | /  /  /  / | /  /  /  / | | /  /  /  / | /  /  /  / | /  /  /  / | /  /  /  / | | /  /  /  / | /  /  /  / | /  /  /  / | /  /  /  / | | /  /  /  / | /  /  /  / | [Verse 4] As he rushed to quench his thirst A fountain spring appeared before him And as his heated breath brushed through the cool mist A liquid voice called "Son of gods drink from my spring". [Verse 5] The water tasted strangely sweet.   Am9           Am6          Emadd4 Behind him the voice called again. He turned and saw her in a cloak of mist alone And as he gazed her eyes were filled with the darkness of the lake.

La chanson évoque une rencontre magique entre Hermaphroditus, un enfant issu des dieux, et une nymphe qui habite une source mystérieuse. Isolé dans une clairière, il recherche désespérément de l'eau et, guidé par une voix enchanteresse, découvre une fontaine argentée. Lorsqu'il s'y approche, il est attiré par la beauté de la nymphe, dont les yeux semblent emprisonner l'obscurité du lac. Leur union est imminente, soulignant un désir de fusion et de communion. Le contexte de cette histoire tire ses racines de la mythologie grecque, où l'amour et la transformation sont souvent au cœur des récits. Cette rencontre entre Hermaphroditus et la nymphe symbolise la quête de l'identité et de l'amour dans un monde empreint de mystère et de divinité.
