Song Of One Of The Girls [German translation]

Here in my heart I am Helen

I'm Aspasia and Hero, at least

I'm Judith, and Jael, and Madame de Stael

I'm Salome, moon of the East

Here in my soul I am Sappho

Lady Hamilton am I, as well

In me Recamier vies with Kitty O'Shea

With Dido, and Eve, and poor Nell

I'm of the glamorous ladies

At whose beckoning history shook

But you are a man, and see only my pan

So I stay at home with a book
