Our translations: ENG FRE

Dir auch wurde, Kleanorides, Sehnsucht nach der Heimat
Tödlich; dich schreckte der Süd nimmer, der winterlich stürmt.

Fatal; the south-wind that storms hibernally never frightened you.
Thus the deceptive season took hold of you, and, flowing mightily,
The waves washed away the allure of lovely youth.
