- I am a maiden of bronze and am set upon the tomb of Midas.
- While the waters flow and tall trees flourish,
- and the sun rises and shines and the bright moon also;
- while rivers run and the sea breaks on the shore,
- ever remaining on this mournful tomb,
- I tell the passer-by that Midas here lies buried.
