| In a virgin world primeval | |
| A newborn bullcalf emerged | |
| Wondrous and celestial | |
| Three cranes to be its witness and droves | |
| Its honour mantled the face of the earth | |
| A blessing unleashed to the earth | |
| Unseathed the embodiment of life | |
| Tarvos - the embodiment of life | |
| Tarvos - the genesis of time | |
| The earthy heathlands roamed by esus | |
| Questing condign sacrifice | |
| A divine yearning hushed by the prodigy | |
| Three cranes to wake up the slumbering taur | |
| To warn him 'gainst the imminence of a huntergod ravenous | |
| "A drawn struggle through innominate days | |
| As ultimately the sword of esus | |
| Pierced the bulls heart | |
| Three cranes to lament as its blood laves | |
| Creation wept under an eclipsing sun | |
| As gloom descended upon world | |
| Three cranes to catch a drop of blood | |
| And leave far away..." | |
| A blessing depraved from the world | |
| As snow fell for the first time on earth | |
| Three cranes returned | |
| Pouring out the blood | |
| To the ground of tarvos' death | |
| And out of nothing | |
| The soil sacrified, the divine bull was reborn | |
| Under a newborn sun nature rejoiced | |
| Thus spring came back on earth | |
| Overcame the brumal reign | |
| Through esus came back | |
| To fell the bull, the eternal cycle has begun | |
| Tarvos - will always be slain | |
| Tarvos - ever to be reborn again |
