Phoniker, auf, Sidons Kind! 1
Auf, schnelles Seeruder, der Wogen Vater,
Freundlich den Schiffenden!
1380
Chorführer schöntanzender Delphine, wann von den Winden
Nicht erregt, schweigt das Meer,
Und Pontos' helläugiges Kind, die Meerstille, den Ruf hebt:
„Spannt die Segel, und gebt sie preis schwellenden Lüften auf hoher See,
Nehmt die tannenen Ruder zur Hand, und geleitet Helena mir
1385
Zum gastfreundlichen Port, zum Haus des Perseus!" 2
Erste Gegenstrophe.
