Riſe, Darius, aweful pow'r;
Long for thee our tears ſhall flow.
Why thy ruin'd empire o'er
Swells this double flood of woe?

Rode thy navy's gallant pride;
Navy now no more, for all
Beneath the whelming wave-

Ships that are ships no more,

Weh, weh! Du schiedst,
Ewigbeweint von den Deinen, hinab!
Wer, wenn, o Herr, dein Herrscherstab noch
Waltete, klagte dann

Um solchen Weh's zwiefachen Schlag,
Der Persis' Land schlug?
Hin sind die gewaltigen Schiffe,
Treiben entmastet, entmastet!
(Aus der stygischen Pforte schwebt der Geist des Dareios herauf, und schreitet auf die Höhe seines Grabes; die Greise sinken auf die Kniee.)
