Chorus of Frogs
Brekekekex koax koax,
Brekekekex koax koax,
275
Marshy children of the waters,
the harmonious cry of hymns,
Let us sing, my sweet
song, Koaxkoax,
which for Nysian
280
Dionysos, son of Zeus,
we sang at Limnae
when in drunken revelry
at the Feast of the Jars
the crowd of people marches to my sanctuary.

I'm starting to hurt
my butt, Koax koax!
Maybe it doesn't bother you!
