All hail Dionysus
lord of the vine
Liber Pater
source and surcease of madness
It is you whom I honor
as I prepare my cups
and when I empty them
in vino veritas
You are Zagreus
to whom Zeus bequeathed the throne
You are the bringer of wine,
the liberator and savior of mortals
It is you to whom I pray
when my mind betrays me
when I weep for no reason
when I lay shaking from passions
which even I cannot name
All hail Dionysus
lord of the vine
Liber Pater
source and surcease of madness
