Stride La Vampa

The flames are roaring!
The drowsy crowd
Runs to that fire
Happy in appearance.
Shouts of joy
Echo around
Surrounded by cheers
A woman advances.
Sinister shines
On the horrible faces
The dark flame
That rises to the sky.
The flames are roaring!
The victim arrives
Dressed in black
Undressed and barefoot.
A fierce cry
Of death rises
The echo repeats it
From leap to leap.
Sinister shines
On the horrible faces
The dark flame
That rises to the sky.
