letra de hymn to aphrodite - granville bantock

Loading...

daughter of zeus
immortal aphrodite
queen of the broidered throne
distress’d i pray thee
weaver of wiles
break not my heart with anguish
o goddess, hear me!

now hither come, as once before thou camest
hearing my voice afar, and lean to listen;
camest with golden chariot, leaving swiftly
thy father’s dwelling
beautiful, fleet thy sparrows drew thee hither
round the dark earth
from heaven’s height descending
whirled thеy with wings
through deeps of middle aether
fluttеring came they

then thou, blest once, with lips immortal smiling
didst ask –
“why weepest thou? what is befallen?
whom wouldst thy heart and beauty
draw to love thee?
who wrongs thee, sappho?

“she who spurns gifts shall give;
who flies shall follow;
if she loves not, unwilling soon shall love thee.”
ah, come, from care release, fulfil my yearning;
help, i beseech thee

daughter of zeus
immortal aphrodite
queen of the broidered throne
distress’d i pray thee
weaver of wiles
break not my heart with anguish
o goddess, hear me!
