Temple of Athena the Savior

Knowledge secret and sacred, wild and free

Youthful Attis Her dying-and-restructuring lover

Boisterous is the sound of the drums, frenzied is the dancing

Exuberant are Her worshipers, Her rites filled with sacred ecstasy

Lions attend the Mistress of the Wild in Her mountainous home

Exotic this foreign Mother of the Gods, Protector of Empires
