Glittering-Minded deathless Aphrodite’ Glittering-Minded - TopicsExpress



          

Glittering-Minded deathless Aphrodite’ Glittering-Minded deathless Aphrodite, I beg you, Zeus’s daughter, weaver of snares, Don’t shatter my heart with fierce Pain, goddess, But come now, if ever before You heard my voice, far off, and listened, And left your father’s golden house, And came, Yoking your chariot. Lovely the swift Sparrows that brought you over black earth A whirring of wings through mid-air Down the sky. They came. And you, sacred one, Smiling with deathless face, asking What now, while I suffer: why now I cry out to you, again: What now I desire above all in my Mad heart. ‘Whom now, shall I persuade To admit you again to her love, Sappho, who wrongs you now? If she runs now she’ll follow later, If she refuses gifts she’ll give them. If she loves not, now, she’ll soon Love against her will.’ Come to me now, then, free me From aching care, and win me All my heart longs to win. You, Be my friend. Sappho~~~
