Chorus
That murder wrought by the daughters of Danaus, which the rock of Argos keeps, was once the most famous and notorious in Hellas; but this has surpassed, has outrun those former horrors . . . for the unhappy son of Zeus.
I could tell of the murder done by Procne, mother of an only child, offered to the Muses; but you had three children, wretched parent, and all of them have you in your frenzy slain.
Alas! What groans or wails, what funeral dirge, or dance of death am I to raise?
Ah, ah! see, the bolted doors of the lofty palace are being rolled apart.
Ah me! see the wretched children lying before their unhappy father, who is sunk in dreadful slumber after shedding their blood.
Round him are bonds and cords, made fast with many knots about the body of Heracles, and lashed to the stone columns of his house.

Chorus
The maids of Delos raise their song of joy, circling round the temple gates in honor of Leto's fair son, the graceful dancer; so I with my old lips will cry aloud songs of joy at your palace-doors, like the swan, aged singer; for there is a good theme for minstrelsy; he is the son of Zeus; yet high above his noble birth tower his deeds of prowess, for his toil secured this life of calm for man, having destroyed all fearsome beasts.
