Text based on: Evelyn-White H. G. Hesiod, the Homeric Hymns and Homerica. London: William Heinemann; New York: Macmillan. 1914.

1. οἱ μὲν γὰρ Δρακάνῳ σ', οἱ δ' Ἰκάρῳ ἠνεμοέσσῃ
2. φάσ', οἱ δ' ἐν Νάξῳ, δῖον γένος εἰραφιῶτα,
3. οἱ δέ σ' ἐπ' Ἀλφειῷ ποταμῷ βαθυδινήεντι
4. κυσαμένην Σεμέλην τεκέειν Διῒ τερπικεραύνῳ,
5. ἄλλοι δ' ἐν Θήβῃσιν ἄναξ σε λέγουσι γενέσθαι
6. ψευδόμενοι· σὲ δ' ἔτικτε πατὴρ ἀνδρῶν τε θεῶν τε
7. πολλὸν ἀπ' ἀνθρώπων κρύπτων λευκώλενον Ἥρην.
8. ἔστι δέ τις Νύση ὕπατον ὄρος ἀνθέον ὕλῃ
9. τηλοῦ Φοινίκης σχεδὸν Αἰγύπτοιο ῥοάων
10. καί οἱ ἀναστήσουσιν ἀγάλματα πόλλ' ἐνὶ νηοῖς.
11. ὡς δὲ τάμεν τρία, σοὶ πάντως τριετηρίσιν αἰεὶ
12. ἄνθρωποι ῥέξουσι τεληέσσας ἑκατόμβας.
13. ἦ καὶ κυανέῃσιν ἐπ' ὀφρύσι νεῦσε Κρονίων·
14. ἀμβρόσιαι δ' ἄρα χαῖται ἐπερρώσαντο ἄνακτος
15. κρατὸς ἀπ' ἀθανάτοιο, μέγαν δ' ἐλέλιξεν Ὄλυμπον.
16. ὣς εἰπὼν ἐκέλευσε καρήατι μητίετα Ζεύς.
17. ἵληθ' εἰραφιῶτα γυναιμανές· οἱ δέ σ' ἀοιδοὶ
18. ᾄδομεν ἀρχόμενοι λήγοντές τ', οὐδέ πῃ ἔστι
19. σεῖ' ἐπιληθομένῳ ἱερῆς μεμνῆσθαι ἀοιδῆς.
20. καὶ σὺ μὲν οὕτω χαῖρε Διώνυσ' εἰραφιῶτα,
21. σὺν μητρὶ Σεμέλῃ ἥν περ καλέουσι Θυώνην.
