Versez les parfums,
Tressez la couronne;
Séléné rayonne
Au fond des cieux bruns.
Décorez ma tête
D'un long voile d'or.
Qu'à chanter encor
Ma Lyre soit prète!
Taillez mon bûcher
Dans le coeur des chènes;
Je porte les chaînes
Dudivin Archer!
Phoïbos m'appelle
Et me tend les bras!
Ne me pleurez pas.
Ne me pleurez pas,
Je suis immortelle!
