| Lyrics: |
Standing on the riverbank the laurel tree
The only memory that i have
she was hunting, her dress short to her knee
her arms bare, her hair in wild disarray
Nevertheless she was enchantingly beautiful
Why did she flee when i said..
Daphne! Do not fear.
Stop and find out who I am:
No rustic or shepherd.
I am the Lord of Delphi
and I love you
O fairest of maidens, you are lost to me
But at least you shall be my tree
My heroes shall wreathe their brows with your leaves in victory
You and I shall be joined together
whenever songs are sung and stories are told.
