Oh, Hyacinthus my heart,
my sanctuary abandoned, abandoned!
for your eyes, your smile and your laugh
Delphi is nothing, incomparable to sands and
waters murky of river Eurotas wading.
Holding you on the banks, embracing
and pleading for this to never end, praying,
my fingertips on your skin, tracing.
Lusted after by all, but only loved by me
Your love, your soul entwined with mine.
In sickness, in turmoil, in health,
in the cold release of death
