Chorus

Ah! poor lady, woe is thee! Alas, for thy sorrows! Whither wilt thou turn? What protection,

what home or country to save thee from thy troubles wilt thou find? O Medea, in what a hopeless sea of misery heaven hath plunged thee!

Χορός

δύστανε γύναι,

φεῦ φεῦ, μελέα τῶν σῶν ἀχέων.

ποῖ ποτε τρέψῃ; τίνα πρὸς ξενίαν;

ἦ δόμον ἢ χθόνα σωτῆρα κακῶν
360

ἐξευρήσεις;

ὡς εἰς ἄπορόν σε κλύδωνα θεός,

Μήδεια, κακῶν ἐπόρευσε.

Weh, daß dich das grause Verhängniß traf!
360

Wo flichest du hin? Welch gastlicher Port,

Welch Haus, welch Land wird, Leidende, dir

Rettend sich aufthun?

Wohl hat dich ein Gott, o Medeia, gestürzt

Hülflos in die Wogen des Unheils.
