Lyrics:
"DIONYSUS & CHORUS:
Oh, Dirce dear, your life’s now spent
By hands of those who sought their due.
In sacred spring, your blood is lent;
And thus, I honor you anew.

This stream shall bear your name so bright
—in memory of faithful deeds.
For, in your death I find the light
To spread my worship, as it needs.

Your fervent zeal, your loyal heart,
did aid my cause, from very start;
Through rites and revels, wild and free,
You made all Greeks to worship me.

In fields and groves, where my name spread,
Your hand did guide, your voice had led.
With ivy crowned and thyrsus high,
Your faith ensured my cult would thrive.

In grief I stand, though godly might
—for, even gods do mourn the night.
Yet, dignity must hold its sway
—as, tears of gods in shadows lay!"

From my upcoming book "Antiope" (a reconstruction of Euripides' tragedy "Antiope", in English verse, based on the surviving fragments of the play). A part of Act 5, depicting Dionysus' lament for his beloved Dirce; right before Dionysus' punishment on Antiope for the cruel murder of Dirce by her sons, Amphion and Zethus.

This track is a soft-sounding blend between eastern and western music metric systems and music scales, thus honoring the dispersing of the worship of the ever-living Dionysus himself in all these lands.
