Lyrics

Woman the Enigma
© Issachar Tal van Kekem
A woman for a friend, a woman for a slave
A woman to punish if she will not behave
A woman to laugh with, a woman to crave,
A woman to proudly display, a woman to lave

Chorus:
The woman, desired - lusted after,
Taken and possessed, cannot be owned
Man’s arrogance met by laughter
Never to be atoned
Man to be dethroned

The woman, unlike the man, is from this side
As well as from the Other Side.
Willed into life by The Single Lord,
And cleft of His accord
The man descended to Earth, to toil and to cause turmoil,
But the woman’s spirit remained in Heaven
And on Earth is a translucent voile

Chorus:
The woman, desired - lusted after,
Taken and possessed, cannot be owned
Man’s arrogance met by laughter
Never to be atoned
Man to be dethroned

The man was anterior
But the woman is superior
The man can forcefully clasp,
But he can never grasp
Her nature, to him, forever inscrutable,
Unfathomable, inapprehensible

Chorus:
