Pallas Athena I begin to sing,
The glorious goddess with gleaming eyes,
Brilliantly inventive, her heart relentless,
The formidable maiden, guardian of cities,
The courageous Tritogeneia.
Wise Zeus gave birth to her himself
Out of his majestic head.
Golden armour clothed her,
It was glistening, war-like.
All the gods who saw her
Were overcome with awe.
Suddenly she was there
Before Zeus who holds the Aegis.
She sprang from his immortal head
Shaking her sharp spear.
Great Olympus trembled terribly
At the power of the goddess
With the gleaming eyes.
And the earth screamed awfully
All around her and the sea
Started to move, frothing
With dark waves and suddenly
The salt sea stopped.
The brilliant son of Hyperion stilled
His swift-footed horses
For along time until
Pallas Athena, the maiden,
Unclasped the heavenly armour
From her immortal shoulders.
Wise Zeus was delighted.
Farewell, daughter of Zeus
Who holds the aegis.
And now I shall remember you
And another song too.
