"Hymn to Poseidon
(Ca. 6th century BC)
My song begins · for great Poseidon
the Earthmover, · endless shifter
of the gaping deep; ·god of waters,
Lord of Helicon, · homed in the expanse
of ancient Aegae. · Earthshaker, you
the gods endowed · with double honor
to be tamer of steeds · and savior of ships.
Hail, Poseidon · sire of waveroads
the blue-haired god · who girds the earth.
Blessed one, I pray · your broad kind heart
take care of us · who cross your seas."
--Translated by A.Z. Foreman
