The Poems of Sappho: 82: I have a fair daughter...

Ἕστι μοι κάλα πάισ χρυσίοισιν ἀνθέμοισιν ἐμφέρην ἔχοισα μόρφαν, Κλῆισ ἀγαπάτα, ἀντι τᾶσ ἔγω οὐδὲ Λυδίαν παῖσαν οὐδ᾽ ἔρανναν. [transcription] I have a fair daughter with a form like golden flowers, Cleis the belovedest whom I cherish more than all Lydia or lovely [Lesbos]. A fair daughter have I, Cleis by name, Like a golden flower she seems to me. Far more than all Lydia, her do I love, Or Lesbos shimmering in the sea. Quoted and commented upon by Hephaestion.
