Lyrics

Proserpina! Proserpina!

Come home to momma, come home to momma

Proserpina! Proserpina!

Come home to mother, come home to momma now

I shall punish the earth

I shall turn down the heat

I shall take away every morsel to eat

I shall turn every field into stone

Where I walk, crying alone

Crying for Proserpina

Proserpina, come home to momma

Come home to momma now

Proserpina! Proserpina!

Go home to your mother

Go home to Hera

Proserpina! Proserpina!

Go home to your mother

Go home to Hera now

She has punished the earth

She has turned down the heat

She has taken away every morsel to eat

She has turned every field into stone

Where she walks, crying alone

Crying for...

Proserpina! Proserpina!

Come home to momma, come home to momma

Proserpina! Proserpina!

Come home to momma, come home to momma now

She has turned every field into stone

Where she walks, crying alone

Crying for...

Proserpina! Proserpina!

Come home to momma, come home to momma

Proserpina! Proserpina!

Come home to momma, come home to momma now
