Lyrics
Leaving the massive walls
Of the mighty fortress of Tiryns
Heading for the Western Seas
Cleansing the stable of the son of Eleius
The King called Augeas
Cattle consisting of a thousand oxen
Immortal, in divine health
The repulsive scent in my lungs
Inhuman humiliation
Only cleansed three decades ago
An enormous pile of excrements
Cattle consisting of a thousand oxen
Immortal, in divine health
The repulsive scent in my lungs
Inhuman humiliation
Fulfill this labour in a day
And be rewarded one-tenth of the cattle
I drove the oxen away
And commenced the purification
To clean this mess in a single day
Is too much work, even for a God
I need water from the rivers
...The rivers...
To combine the nearby rivers
The Arcadian Alfeiรณs
And Pineiรณs from Erymanthos
With my club I crushed the spit
Right after succeeding this labour
An agreement nor honoured
Since this task was not ordered by him to be done
I claimed my reward in court
But was banished with Phyleus
In anger I returned and slayed the King
The repulsive scent in my lungs
Inhuman humiliation
