She has magical powers that haunt her From her childhood to adulthood She is rumored to be a vessel for the goddess But the goddess didn't claim her yet She grew into a beautiful woman With a loving husband to call her own They are expecting their first issue Soon their joy is cut short.
The villagers came to claim her body The goddess is ready to take her, they said. Her husband pleads for her dear life I don't care about traditions, he said I want my wife and unborn baby, he said They cry and beg still They just want to be left alone She has found a new life, a normal life She isn't ready to give it up For archaic rituals and traditions.
The initiation ceremony draws closer She is to give up her body for the goddess A total surrender of her body, mind, and soul The goddess will wear her body just like clothes While she is trapped inside with no will left Her husband must forget her and move on Her unborn baby, well, no one knew it's fate yet.
The initiation day is here The crowd is gathered around From the village and the neighboring villages They all wait patiently for the goddess Let my wife go, her husband screams Till his voice is lost Strong men hold him down So he will not disrupt the ceremony.
They started beating the drums The music of the goddess Dance! The chief told her The goddess will possess her when she dances To the special music of the drums She dances and dances and dances Till she started feeling pains in her belly.
Her unborn baby is uncomfortable And her body is weak She falls to the ground and she faints She is awakened by a thunderous slap The chief had slapped her to wake up Dance harder! He screams.
Her husband watches from afar In agony, pains, and heartbreak He wants to save his wife and child But the strong men hold him stronger She dances and dances and dances But the goddess still didn't come She dances and dances and dances Till her unborn child becomes fed up It wanted so badly to leave her body But it didn't take the normal route.
She feels a movement in her belly The baby is coming. she thought She slows down in her dance Dance harder! the chief screams The drums beat faster And she dances and dances and dances She felt a movement in her chest I don't feel so good She thought She can't stop anyway, the chief is here She felt a movement in her throat I'm going to vomit she thought But she can't stop anyway, the chief is here As she moves one more time She opens her mouth wide To let out the contents in her throat But she is afraid of what she sees.
The villagers looked in confusion Is this a fetus they asked Can a woman vomit a fetus? How possible is that? Her baby has rejected her! they all keep saying Her body is infected! they all keep shouting The goddess rejected her body The chief shouted The music stops one after the other the villagers leave.
She turns to seek her husband but he is gone Into a puff of smoke, they all disappear In the square, she is left with her dead fetus Her life is ruined, her world is gone The people ruined her life The goddess ÌSÉRÉ ruined her life.
