about

Réplique maritime d'Ariane, dans sa version dominatrice, implacable et destructrice –soulignée par la musique-, symétrique du Minotaure. Dans la mythologie, le Minotaure fut abandonné par ses parents et tué par Thésée tandis que celui-ci fut soupçonné de provoquer le suicide de son père afin de lui succéder sur le trône.

Ariadne's maritime replica, in a domineering way, implacable and destructive -stressed by the music-, Minotaur's symetric. In the myth, the Minotaur was abandonned by his parents and killed by Theseus, while this one was suspected to cause the suicide of his father, the king, in order to succeed him.

lyrics

Sur sa poitrine brille un soleil
Et l'amour délaissé sur un rocher
Ivre sur son navire une voile noire tend son ombre
A son image reflet dans un miroir
Il disait : « à moi le pouvoir
Aux autres le devoir »

====
On his chest a sun shines
And love left on a rock
Thrilled on his ship a black sail tightens its shadow
To his image reflect on a mirror
He was saying : « to me, power
Duty for the other »
