Repentance Of A Dying Libertine

from Sade by Paragon Impure

/

lyrics

IV - REPENTANCE OF A DYING LIBERTINE

I was created by Nature
with the keenest of appetites
and the strongest of passions

I was put on this earth
with the sole purpose
of placating both by surrendering to them

Incidental effects essential to Her designs for me
Conform entirely to Her laws
Criminal in your eyes,
perfectly straightforward in mine

I repent only
not sufficiently acknowledging Her omnipotence
Blinded by the absurdity of your doctrines
I did at times resist Her
…and am heartily sorry for it.

I picked only flowers
when I could have harvested ripe fruits


Based upon the repentance of the dying man
Dialoque entre un prêtre et un moribond, 1782
