To stem the current is no vain attempt
   the Knowledge preserved for us alone
   in this world of mud and rust
   decipher what is coded by our hands
  
   Defiled our names
   soiled glory of gods
   dismal new faith
   spawn of deliverence
  
   Oh Wisdom formless and odious
   the sexless parent of disbelief
   restricting rules they can make
   means nothing to Your Being
  
   Defiled our names
   soiled glory of gods
   dismal new faith
   spawn of deliverence
  
   Restore what was broken
   no single word is missed
   with fiery tongues speak to us
   to souls gashed, souls hardened
  
   Oh Wisdom formless and odious
   the sexless parent of disbelief
   restricting rules they can make
   means nothing to Your Being
  
   Defiled our names
   soiled glory of gods
   dismal new faith
   spawn of deliverence
  
   This conceit waste
   regain we must
   on Hermes' touch
