|

|

Come with Apollo in wedding garb<br />

|-

|

|

Come with Artemis adorned with silken shoes<br />

|-

|

|

In the moonlight of the forest, upon the mountain of marble<br />

|-

|

|

Dunk the purple of adamant prayer<br />

|-

|

|

That soul which is startled within blue eyes<br />

|-

|

|

The grove that is tangled, the trunk that is gnarled,<br />

|-

|

|

and mind-and-body come over sea<br />

|-

|

|

Hey man! Don’t be left behind!<br />

|-

|

|

Come with drums that mumble deeply<br />

|-

|

|

Come with flute and come with pipes!<br />

|-

|

|

I who wait, writhe, and wrestle<br />

|-

|

|

My body, so tired because of the grip of emptiness<br />

|-

|

|

Come, oh come! And<br />

|-

|

|

Because of the lonely lust of demonry.<br />

|-

|

|

That which devours everything<br />

|-

|

|

Give the sign of the Open Eye to me<br />

|-

|

|

O Pan! Io Pan!<br />

|-

|

|

I am a man<br />

|-

|

|

O Pan! Io Pan!<br />

|-

|

|

In snake’s grasp<br />

|-

|

|

Great beasts come. Io Pan! I am carried<br />

|-

|

|

I am Pan! Io Pan! Io Pan Pan! Pan!<br />

|-

|

|

With steel hoof I race over rocks<br />

|-

|

|

Small creature, bird, girl, wild-woman, man<br />

|-

|

|

Io Pan! Io Pan Pan! Pan! Io Pan!
