As Moses went up to the mountain to see his God

We remained down here and made our lord

Nobody claimed ignorance of this sin

We brought our finest jewelries to make this thing

 

Be at the front and fight until you’re dead

From dawn to dusk I will lay with her in bed

Nobody claimed ignorance of this sin

We brought our finest jewelries to make this thing

 

Standing at her door Miss Passion winks at me

In her hand my ring; in my hand her key

Nobody claimed ignorance of this sin

We brought our finest jewelries to make this thing.

 

I know the truth, but this crowd calls for blood

I will wash my hands then hand over the sword

Nobody claimed ignorance of this sin

We brought our finest jewelries to make this thing

 

His command was clear “Eat it and die”

Yet we both ate it with blissful sighs

Nobody claimed ignorance of this sin

We brought our finest jewelries to make this thing

 

The fact remains that I loved the Christ till I died

But for 30 shekels of silver I would have left my mother’s side

Nobody claimed to be ignorant of this sin

We brought our finest jewelries to make this thing

 

But are people of today better than those of the past?

We know the commands and sins and still forget fast

Every misstep we make is actually a conscious step

The punishment of hell a fable with no depth

Nobody claimed ignorance of this sin

We brought out finest jewelries to make this thing

Prince of Art
