Oh Tyndarids, lords of all guest-welcoming, + 

Oh Helen of the tresses beauty-crowned, + 

Take pleasure in my praises, when I sing + 

Akragas far-renowned, + 

Chanting her son’s Olympian victory, + 

The glory of his tireless-footed team. + 

The Muse hath thrilled me with new harmony + 

Of wedded song and dance, in revelry + 

Where Dorian sandals gleam. + 
