Mariah of Magdala

Part I: Sin

Mariah of Magdala

The cursed one among women

Better that you were not born

The one full of black evil

Queen of prostitutes

None of modest can be traced in you

Yet men still Adour you

They still come crawling even in black dark	

They do not care if day is scorching bright 

Neither if its black pitch in deep groovy woods

They hunt you from the cave you hide

When they smell your shadow Mariah

They cannot hold on their dripping appetite

That made wet their groins

What charm are you using Mariah!

Why don’t you share with other women?

Do you want all the men to yourself Mariah?
