about

A song about Adamastor - the fictional cursed beast that torments portuguese sailors in "Os Lusiadas" the portuguese epic historical adventure written by Luís de Camões.

lyrics

From above upon the sky nightfall clouds arise
A roar from the depth and the black
Stinging hearts with mortal fear
Threatening the divine, a mystery of the earth shall attack
The torment is revealed, deformed figures in the skies
Abnormally strong and hale, black mouth of terror
Heinous brutal eyes, a beast psychologically frail

Feel my rage, unbearable to take
Through words I’ve said too much
Hear the stroke, the giant’s lair awake
See the downfall of Adamastor!!

Speak to the adventures who dare to cross his way
And sailed to the creature’s den
Seeking through the hidden secrets of the mother Earth,
What’s beyond the limits of men?
From the beast a deadly curse unleashed upon your dare
He’ll bring shadows and destructive hell
No end for torment punish war scares
You shall see vengeance in my dwell

Perdition!
Ruin and disgrace is all I see
Shipwrecks, blood and MISERY
Torturing smell of death at sea
Wishing never being born I’ve plea
War of giants, between colossus forces
Conquering the waves of the free
Captain of the sea, all the goddess I despise
Master of war seeking full demise
She came with my curse, and my heart to rust
Torturing my mind and engulfing my trust
Determined to start a war, in order to possess
The feeling that turned my spirit into a mess
Nymphs and giants, love to death betrays,
Chest holding hopes and desire prays
Love was perdition, I abomination
A curse for ire, grief and temptation

[Portuguese Poem based on “Os Lusiadas”]
“Começei a sentir do fado inimigo,
Por meus atrevimentos o castigo
Converte-se-me a carne em terra dura,
Os membros em longas águas de amargura
A nuvem negra bramingo pelas profundezas do mar sofucante
Sou aquele oculto e grande cabo agozinante
A quem chamais vós outros, tormentório
Eternamente Adamastor!!!"
