| Hail Hades, invisible God Deity of many buried treasures
Your home is the infernal regions
Where the Sun rays never penetrate
Gateway to the blackened underwold
Guarded by Cerburus the Jackal
Mournful abode and refuge of souls
Mute ghosts and shades of the dead
The Kingdom of spectres and shadows
Mysterious unplumbed depths
Subterranean powers and cataclysm
We lay white lilies at the graves
Remove the tumbled mossed tombstones
Allow the mania to pass through
Appease their anger and rage for injustice
Grant us wealth and riches in life
Grant us rebirth and renewal in death
An eternal spirit in the happy Elysian
Fields
Only for the just and favoured ones
