Miserere, Venere...
Emma Shapplin
Miserere, Venus...
All night
Feels like all night
Your sweetness accompanies me
And reminds me of my fate
Venus
Oh goddess Venus
Now I beg you at last...
Have mercy on my torment
Have mercy, so many years have passed
That I live under my own burden
Goddess Venus, why me?
All night
Feels like all night I'm afraid
I see again those I kill
Alas, I must kill to live!
Venus
Oh goddess Venus
Now I beg you at last...
Have mercy on my torment (etc...)
Happy soul
That will never return...
Have mercy on my torment
Have mercy, so many years have passed
That I live under my own burden
Tell me, Goddess, why do I live
