Song Offering (Kriosa Lysia)
Apollon, far-shooting healer,
Brother of mountain-roaming Artemis.
Zeus-loved Leto bore you
On Delos which gave her rest.
Paeon, yours is rocky Delphi,
Well-loved and sought worldwide;
You cleansed and blessed your sacred precinct
Where your holy priestess prophecies.
Once again, bright Phoebos,
The world turns its eyes towards you.
For Sunday sunrise in holy Delphi,
We the Kyklos pause and remember
With song or silence, bay or fire
Holy healer, enthusiasmos, guide
We listen for your inspiration
And seek to be purified.
Bless us, heal us, keep us strong
Far-seeing Daphnephoros,
As the cycle of the Sun continues,
Mindful of each other, we circle `round to you.
