Enter Poem or Quote (Required)Required Sappho Translations XV by Michael R. Burch Gaia, rainbow-crowned, garbs herself in myriad hues. (168c) We ran like fawns from the symposium: me, Cleis and reckless Gongyla. (168d) Destiny is from the Muses, / and thus I was destined to leave him / to become / Sappho, Mistress of Song. (168e,f) Unknowing of evil, I was pure innocence. (171) Eros, pain-inducer, desist! (172) She grew like a trellis vine. (173) Mighty Zeus, World-Holder! (180) Little is learned with an easy passage, much by a hard. (181) May I go, or must you? (182) Eros gusting blew my heart to pieces. (183) I live in danger of too much love. (184) Men fell in love with my honeyed voice, but I fell for girls. (185) Sappho: Let me be one of the Muses when I die! Aphrodite: Granted! (187) Eros, story-weaver, never a happy ending? (188) I was very wise, except in the ways of love. (190) That girl grew curvy and curly, like celery. (191) We raised golden goblets inlaid with ivory and toasted the stars. (192) Gold is indestructible. (201) I once instructed Hero of Gyara, the fleetfooted runner. (287) We collapsed, drenched in sweat on both sides. (288) Dawn spilled down the high mountains. (289) Trading rosy health for less heartache, I fled my girlish youth. (291) Such a boy once drove his chariot to Thebes, while Malis spun his fate on her spindle. (292, Malis was a Lydian war goddess) "Thorneater?" That doesn't offend irongutted Arcadians! (293) Hecate, Aphrodite's golden-armored ally, Queen of the Underworld. (294) Learn from Admetus to love the courageous and avoid cowards, who seldom show gratitude. (296) The black earth absorbed grief-stricken tears along with the interred sons of Atreus. (297) Nightingale, sing your song and I'll sing along. (298) Aphrodite, my mind is troubled. I'm still your servant, but Atthis remains a headstrong child. (299) As when before your light streamed like honey but I was in darkness still. (300) She is lovely as before, but where now is Hope? (300a) Aphrodite, do you not love the windlike dances / of beautiful, apple-cheeked Abanthis? (301) Cyprian, how splendid your altar ablaze in blue, silver and gold. Yet you all the more amazing! (302) The bride lovely as dawn's unfolding sky, the groom nearly as handsome. (303) Cyprian, here we come, singing songs and offering libations! (304) A graceful girl, shy as a fawn and as flighty. (305) Glorious passions! Passions uproarious! (306)
