Thrill with lissome lust of the lightA
O man My manB
Come careering out of the nightA
Of Pan Io PanB
Io Pan Io Pan Come over the seaC
From Sicily and from ArcadyA
Roaming as Bacchus with fauns and pardsC
And nymphs and styrs for thy guardsC
On a milk white ass come over the seaC
To me to meC
Coem with Apollo in bridal dressC
Spheperdess and pythonessC
Come with Artemis silken shodA
And wash thy white thigh beautiful GodA
In the moon of the woods on the marble mountA
The dimpled dawn of of the amber fountA
Dip the purple of passionate prayerD
In the crimson shrine the scarlet snareD
The soul that startles in eyes of blueE
To watch thy wantoness weeping throughE
The tangled grove the gnarled boleF
Of the living tree that is spirit and soulF
And body and brain come over the seaC
Io Pan Io PanB
Devil or god to me to meC
My man my manB
Come with trumpets sounding shrillG
Over the hillG
Come with drums low mutteringH
From the springH
Come with flute and come with pipeI
Am I not ripeI
I who wait and writhe and wrestleJ
With air that hath no boughs to nestleJ
My body weary of empty claspK
Strong as a lion and sharp as an aspK
Come O comeL
I am numbL
With the lonely lust of devildomL
Thrust the sword through the galling fetterM
All devourer all begetterM
Give me the sign of the Open EyeN
And the token erect of thorny thighN
And the word of madness and mysteryM
O pan Io PanB
Io Pan Io Pan Pan Pan PanB
I am a manB
Do as thou wilt as a great god canB
O Pan Io PanB
Io pan Io Pan Pan Iam awakeO
In the grip of the snakeO
The eagle slashes with beak and clawP
The gods withdrawP
The great beasts come Io Pan I am borneQ
To death on the hornQ
Of the UnicornQ
I am Pan Io Pan Io Pan Pan PanB
I am thy mate I am thy manB
Goat of thy flock I am gold I am godA
Flesh to thy bone flower to thy rodA
With hoofs of steel I race on the rocksC
Through solstice stubborn to equinoxC
And I rave and I rape and I rip and I rendA
Everlasting world without endA
Mannikin maiden maenad manB
In the might of PanB
Io Pan Io Pan Pan Pan Io PanB
