  1. (bkz: eloy) 'un ocean albümünde ki (bkz: poseidon's creation) sonra gelen ikinci şarkı. ilk şarkıda anlatılan atlantis'in yaratımı ve poseidon'un kleito'ya aşık olmasından sonra, hem ilk şarkının sonunda hem bu şarkının cansızlığı tasvir eden ilk kısmının devamında yavaş yavaş insanlığın doğuşu anlatılıyor. fakat "örgütlenen" topluluklar güç ve toprak için savaşıyorlar. ne demişler "...lakin insan tamahkârdır."

    no native soil, no ocean, no salty wave, no sky above
    no living being
    no movement, no colours, no elements, no eye to see anything
    complete emptiness
    before all was nothing?

    the moon, companion of the sun
    touching celestial globe
    motionless starry sky

    the planets don't know where to move
    they are unaware of puissance and of hope
    intrinsic virtues awake!

    all of a sudden appears a light
    horizons open wide
    voices fill the air
    and the gods made love!

    the layers tremble and raise in staggering
    and words transform into flesh and blood

    the act of uppermost magic has begun
    impulses working on and on
    movement here and there
    vibrations move the atmosphere!

    transcendental forces penetrate
    the planet we call earth
    and all spheres of the universe
    all the elements burst!

    a warm powerful breeze
    inspires inanimate matter
    and a creature, shaky reeling on two legs
    extends it's hands shivering against the sky
    primary procreation is accomplished!
    primary procreation is accomplished!
    primary procreation is accomplished!

    man arises out of dusty clouds
    eyes are staring all around
    ears are noticing unknown sounds
    legs are pounding on the ground

    now man knows he's not alone
    so his hands take up the stone
    anxiety to hold his own
    fighting for the creatures throne

    man forms tribes to enlarge his chance
    to survive the primeval living-dance
    the strongest ones fight for leadership
    and by these fights they attain the grip

    on the weaker ones who become suppressed
    by their violence so are we possessed
    by the same ideas in a world
    that's full of fears and tears and "progresses"
