| Clear-voiced Muse, sing of Hephaistos, | |
| famous for craft. He and owl-eyed Athena taught | |
| glorious works to earthbound humans, | |
| who used to live like animals in mountain caves. | |
| Now they easily learn skills from Hephaistos, | |
| whose skill is renowned, and live their lives | |
| at ease in their own houses all year around. | |
| Be gracious, Hephaistos; grant excellence and wealth! |
