Άντιστροφή Β + 

Alas! our children’s sorrow, and their pain + 

In slavery. + 

Alas! our warrior sires nobly slain + 

For liberty. + 

Alas! our country’s glory, and the name + 

Of Troy’s fair town; + 

By the lances and the fighting and the flame + 

Tall Troy is down. + 

I shall pass with my soul over-laden, + 

To a land far away and unseen, + 

For Asia is slave and handmaiden, + 

Europa is Mistress and Queen. + 

Without love, or love’s holiest treasure, + 

I shall pass into Hades abhorred, + 

To the grave as my chamber of pleasure, + 

To death as my Lover and Lord. + 
