我歌唱女孩和她的胳膊——多么珍奇啊
那佩着手镯的白色裸臂
它曾经被海伦所拥有,以这位美人之名,
希腊人屠灭了特洛伊。海伦成了罪魁祸首。
为了土地和财宝而开战
听起来不够荣光。就像保姆去抓跑丢的孩子,
把你的女人变成神话!没人可以逃脱。
“欧罗巴”之名来自兽性的施暴:
叫这个名字的女孩骑在牛背上,,公牛想要
把精液洒遍一个大洲。
老宙斯不想挨骂,
地图上没印他的名字。
让我们回到一切的开始,
当罪人并不知道他们正在犯罪。
他少了一根肋骨,而她将用一生去懊悔:
当亚当对上帝说:“是她让我去做的”。
夏娃学到“学习”是一件危险的事情:
它将带来无穷的麻烦。
受过教育的女人是一种危险。
锁好你的伴侣!饲养一个驯服的陌生人
保持贞洁和女德,满足于礼拜和育儿,
而不是像圣女贞德,里外被烧成灰儿。
无论我们挥舞的是权杖还是扫把
你们都显然害怕我们翻身上位。
如果我们能够成功登顶--我说这个并无敌意——
我们的宽容大度可不是你们教的。

Arms and the girl I sing - O rare
arms that are braceleted and white and bare
arms that were lovely Helen's, in whose name
Greek slaughtered Trojan. Helen was to blame.
Scape-nanny call her; wars for turf
and profit don't sound glamorous enough.
Mythologize your women! None escape.
Europe was named from an act of bestial rape:
Eponymous girl on bull-back, he intent
on scattering sperm across a continent.
Old Zeus refused to take the rap.
It's not his name in big print on the map.
But let's go back to the beginning
when sinners didn't know that they were sinning.
He, one rib short: she lived to rue it
when Adam said to God, "She made me do it."
Eve learned that learning was a dangerous thing
for her: no end of trouble would it bring.
An educated woman is a danger.
Lock up your mate! Keep a submissive stranger
like Darby's Joan, content with church and Kinder,
not like that sainted Joan, burnt to a cinder.
Whether we wield a scepter or a mop
It's clear you fear that we may get on top.
And if we do -I say it without animus-
It's not from you we learned to be magnaminous.
