about

Minos arrives in Sicily where Daedalus had taken shelter and orders King Cócalo to hand him over to be punished, otherwise he would invade the palace. Knowing the intentions of Minos, the king Cócalo manages to persuade him with the help of his daughters to enter and to rest, but is killed by them scalded in a bath. After his death Minos goes to Tartarus, where he is summoned by Hades to join his two brothers and become their judge.

lyrics

END OF A REIGN - BEGIN THE JUDGEMENT
Music by Paulo Melo and Lyrics by Paulo Schmidt

[Dedalus]
I can't believe, I lost my son
My punishment has come
Minos will come after me
I need to hide or I will die

[Minos]
If he escapes from my domain my domain
And then trick the certain death certain death
I will hunt his miserable soul
Kill that liar with my hands

[King Cocalos]
You may hide in my land
Trust me and head for the palace
Guards, follow that man to stove
Let him suffocate and die alone

[Minos]
I know you hide my prisoner here
Bring him now onto his knees
To crush his bones looking in his eyes
And I leave your land behind

[King Cocalos]
Rest before your main purpose
Your journey was so long
Tomorrow you may go
My daughters will prepare
your bath

[Princesses Of Sicily]
Now be scalded and feel the pain
Die by our hands

CHORUS
[Minos]
End of a reign, begin the judgement
All my life I was feared by the world
End of a reign, begin the judgement
After death I mean the oath
After death I mean the oath

End of a reign, begin the judgement
All my life I was feared by the world
End of a reign, begin the judgement
After death I mean the oath
After death I mean the oath
After death I mean the oath

I was deceived by mere weak women
My life is gone and my reign is over

After death I mean the oath

[Radamanto]
I cannot believe my brother is here
The powerful king has been dethroned
Murdered by maiden's hands
Lying before us in underworld

[Minos]
My arrival has a purpose
I will judge all the souls
Of those who come into this world
Hades' depth will be their home

[Eacos]
You got rid of us from the way
To take your crown once and for all
In the end all you gain
Was justice for your blame

[Hades]
Now you will serve to my purpose
Three brothers working along
To realize my judgement
And spread all my torment

[King Cocalos]
Rest before your main purpose
Your journey was so long
Tomorrow you may go
My daughters will prepare
your bath

[Princesses Of Sicily]
Now be scalded and feel the pain
Die by our hands

End of a reign, begin the judgement
All my life I was feared by the world
End of a reign, begin the judgement
After death I mean the oath

After death I mean the oath

End of a reign, begin the judgement
All my life I was feared by the world
End of a reign, begin the judgement
After death I mean the oath

After death I mean the oath
