Up in the sky
shone sharp electric eyes,
A mission was given
to carry away a prince.
Loveliest Ganymede,
with beauty so divine,
caught the eyes
of the king of the heavens.
Ganymede was carried away
by the eagle of the king.
Ganymede! Oh, Ganymede!
Couldn't even call out to his kin.
Now stuck forever beside
the king's throne,
Always with a bottle of nectar
and a cup in hand.
- Asteria
