Pluck up thy beard; tear off thy hoary locks;
And battle thine eyes in tears: thus through the streets
Solemn and slow with sorrow lead my steps;
Lead to my house; and wail the fate of Persia。
CHORUS
Yes; once more at thy bidding shall the strain
Pour the deep sorrows of my soul;
The suff'rings of my bleeding untry plain;
And bid the Mysian measures roll。
Again the voice of wild despair
With thrilling shrieks shall pierce the air;
For high the god of war his flaming crest
Raised; with the fleet of Greece surrounded;
The haughty arms of Greece with conquest bless'd;
And Persia's withered force confounded;
Dash'd on the dreary beach her heroes slain。;
Or whelm'd them in the darken'd main。
THE END
