Hermes Song

Hermes’ Song

 

I pray to you the messenger God

The God of travelers and thieves

The trickster son of Zeus

Help for I’m on my knees

 

I do not want to die

Just because of the thieves

I don’t want to see you

Take my soul to Hades

 

The God who slayed Hera’s beast

The beast with 100 eyes

As the trickster God you are

A forever story you try

 

As the beast fell asleep

Every eye gradually shuts

Must make sure each eye is close

Before you try to cut

 

You take out your godly sword

And with one move, off his head!

Hera’s beast named Argus

Is now forever dead

 

Oh Hermes the athletic one

Who invented some sports we play

Like the sport of boxing

And many more to say

 

But now where are you?

I’m just oh so confused

I’ve praised you oh so much

I guess we all lose

 

As I lay on the road

Just waiting to die

A fast godly man came

It was Hermes I see fly

 

With his wings on his feet

And on the cap on his head

Hermes saved me life

Now I shall not be dead
