Stag-like golden antlers With hooves of bronze Sacred to Artemis This Ceryneian doe
The anger of Hera and king Eurystheus For killing the Lion and Hydra This third task for me will be full of doom Thou shall not kill this beast Nor shall thou skin Thou will feel the suffering when it's dead
Stag-like golden antlers With hooves of bronze Sacred to Artemis This Ceryneian doe
After my awakening from the travels way up north I spotted this heavenly creature with antlers Wich gleamed in the sun Afraid of Artemis' anger I will not slay Barefootedly I'll chase it down On the mountain slopes of Ceryneia
And for the length of thirteen full moons I barefootedly chased this hind We ran from north to south, from east to west Troughout thrace, istria And the land beyond the north wind It was not to be captured during sleep Not to be caught with mesh It could outrun my lightspeeding arrows This beatiful, beloved and sacred creature of Artemis
Artemis Forgive me from this desecration It's part of my penance My forever guilt
On the last full moon I passed The gates of Artemis' temple The Ceryneian Hind laid down Before the shrine
Stag-like golden antlers With hooves of bronze The Hind returned to the goddess As it flees from the kingTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
