Amphitryon


ÉPHAPSAMÉNÉE : 
Euthymeians ! 
Honour my name, 
My lineage. 
I'm your king ! 
I lead Sumphokéras, 
Which shuts up the Sumphos, 
Virtuous beverage for gods. 

CHOIR : 
Blissful child, clairvoyant hero, / Éphapsaménée, 
Descendant of gods. / You are a mortal. 
Opulence, a gift for your realm, / Interpret of dreams, 
We believe in you. 

ÉPHAPSAMÉNÉE : 
Justice is mine, 
My sight is yours, 
I, Interpret of dreams, 
My reign begins… 

ATIMÉ & AKRÉMOSUMÈNE : 
Defend Sumphokéras, 
Protect our pantheon. 

ÉPHAPSAMÉNÉE : 
I'll foil the assaults of the Pharmelides 
As my faith leads my sword 
And my dreams foresee them 
Coming ahead of our walls. 

AKRÉMOSUMÈNE & TEIROMÉKRÉOS / CHOIR : 
You are my own flesh and blood, / We're all Heliamenides, 
Stay in the way of Justice. / Born of first Héliamène. 
Take care of Euthymeians, / Two peoples, two believes, 
Pharmelides covet Sumphokéras. 

ÉPHAPSAMÉNÉE : 
We don't have to fear 
The stateless Pharmelides, 
Sumphokéras is ours ! 
(They're) Beyond the Unseen Lands, 
Unable to conquer us. 

GODS OF THE PROARCHÉIA : 
We must live a carnal life, 
We possess bodies we care. 

Sumphos, save us from disappearance. 
It means immaterial life for us who drink its water. 

Glorious king ! Clairvoyant ! 
Obey us ! 
Your power… Legacy ! 
Proclaim the "Right Order" of Xeilos the ancestral. 
We all are under your aegis now. 

ÉPHAPSAMÉNÉE : 
I swear allegiance, Xeilos !
