English to Greek

 

For a 2009 production of Trojan Men

Original:
Pallas Athena, bastard child of hate and death!  Avenge me!  Avenge me or you are forsworn!  Hear my voice! You are no son of Zeus!  You are forsworn!

Translation (dactylic hexameter):
Παλλὰς Ἀθηναίη, μίσους νόθε καὶ θανάτοιο,
κλῦθί μοι εὐχομένῃ, τῖσαι δ᾽ἐμὲ δειλοτάτην δή.
εἰ μή, ἀτιμοτάτη τε καὶ οὐ τέκος αἰγιόχοιο!
