Hymn to Zeus

Zeus greatly honoured, Zeus imperishable, here to you

We experience redemptory and spreak, we declare

Ow King, that from your head all the holy came

Mother earth and mountains highest lines

And the deep sea and all everything that the sky can embrace

Ow Son of Cronos Zeus, leader, thunderer, brave-heart

All-father, root of entire world and terminus of it

Earth-shaker, Augmentor, Purgatorial, All-shaker

Lightning, thunderer, fertile Zeus

Hear me: variform and give health

And holy peace and impiccable glory of wealth
