by Asclepiades of Samos (b. c320 BCE)
Translation by Georg Thudichum (1794 - 1873)

Lang ist die Nacht und stürmisch, und...
Language: German (Deutsch)  after the Greek (Ελληνικά) 
Lang ist die Nacht und stürmisch, und sinkt in der Mitte der Pleias,
Und ich geh' an der Thür' unter dem Regen einher,
Sehnsuchtwund von der Falschen, der Helena. Liebe ja hat nicht
Kypris, sie hat ein Geschoß quälenden Feuers gesandt.
