The ominous flute loop at the beginning is almost like the radiance of the goddess Artemis is being discovered by Hippolytus in the woods.

[Verse 1]
We are moved by your radiance
I have brought you this great crown
I spliced its flowers together
Only the bees looking for flowers in spring
Go freely through its cool grass
[Pre-Chorus]
Your voice is distinct in my ears
Your voice is distinct in my ears
[Chorus 1]
Embe— (Embe—)
—llish your (—llish your)
Gold hair (Gold hair)
Embe— (Embe—)
—llish your (—llish your)
Gold hair (Gold hair)
[Verse 2]
Now blessed lady, take this
Embellish your gold hair
No man alive approaches
My good luck to ride with you
Though your face I never see, may my love
Go throughout life, as strong at the finish as now
At the turning point
[Break]
This comes from a faithful hand
This comes from a faithful hand
[Chorus 2]
Embe— (Your voice is distinct in my ears)
Ah! (—llish your)
(Gold hair)
Only the b—
Only the bees
—llish your (—llish your)
Gold hair (Gold hair)
