Summary[edit]

Description
English: Poem by the Ancient Greek lyric poet Sappho, painted on a wall of a building at the corner between the Oude Singel and the Volmolengracht in Leiden, The Netherlands: "But thou shalt ever lie dead,/nor shall there be any remembrance of thee then or thereafter,/for thou hast not of the roses of Pieria;/but thou shalt wander obscure even in the house of Hades,/flitting among the shadowy dead."

Text

κατθάνουσα δὲ κείσηι οὐδέ ποτα μναμοσύνα σέθεν
ἔσσετ΄ οὐδὲ ποτ έις ΄ὔστερον· οὐ γὰρ πεδέχηις βρόδων
τὼν ἐκ Πιερίας· ἀλλ΄ ἀφάνης κἀν Ἀίδα δόμωι
φοιτασηις πέδ άμαυρων νεκυων εκπεποταμενα
ΣΑΠΦΩ

Nederlands: Gedicht van de Griekse lyrische dichteres Sappho, geschilderd op een muur van een gebouw op de hoek tussen de Oude Singel en de Volmolengracht in Leiden, Nederland. Vertaling (poging:)
Maar je zal altijd dood liggen, en er zal geen herinnering aan jou 
Zijn dan en later. Want je heb geen deel aan de 
Rozen van Pieria. Maar als onbekende zelfs in het huis van Hades
Zal je zwerven fladderend tussen de schimmige doden
