Artemis

I praise you, Artemis, free-hearted child of Zeus

and blessed Leto, courageous goddess who roams

the wildwood with silver bow at hand. Artemis

of many names, Artemis of many lands,

your temples stood shining and tall, in cities

and in villages. In the long days of summer

the maidens dance in your honor; in Brauron

were the little she-bears under your care.

Artemis, the mountains are yours to wander,

fleet-footed and firm of step; the wilds of the world

are dear to you, O guardian of wood and of beast.

Goddess who takes joy in dance and song,

companion of the laughing nymphs in all their play,

of all young maids you are the swiftest and the strongest,

the fairest and the first, in skill and grace the greatest.
