Far out in the sea there was an islandon the rocky edge of which lived three Sirensthe three sisters of magic songHalf human and half birdthe Siren sisters sat in a field of flowerssinging in voices that excited the hearts of menThe attractive songs were so sweet that ships were attracted to the island and struck to pieces on the rocksNo sailor nor ship had ever been known to pass the Island of the Sirens without being attracted to  disaster

Acting on the advice of CirceOdysseus took careful preparation against the SirensBefore their ships came to where they could hear the songOdysseus had himself tied to the  mast stopped the ears of his men with wax and ordered them to ignore his orders and gestures when they were passing the fatal island

Soon they came in sight of the rocky islandand the attractive song reached the ears of OdysseusIt moved him so much that he struggled in  despair  to free himself and shouted for his men to turn towards the rich and flowery grass land of the singing sistersBut no one paid any attention to himThe sailors kept straight on until they were completely out of hearingThen his friends freed him and took the wax out of their earsFor once the Sirens had sung with no effectsThe eldest of the sistersPartheropeloved Odysseus so much that she threw herself into the sea after his ships had passed

 

[希腊神话] 海妖塞壬

遥远的海面上有一岛屿,石崖边居住着唱魔歌的海妖塞壬三姐妹。半人半岛的塞壬姐妹们坐在一片花丛里,唱着盎惑人心的歌,甜美的歌声把过往的船只引向该岛,然后撞上礁石船毁人亡。过往的海员和船只都受到迷惑走向毁灭,无一幸免。

奥德修斯遵循女神喀耳斯的忠告。为了对付塞壬姐妹,他采取了谨慎的防备措施。船只还没驶到能听到歌声的地方,奥德修斯就令人把他拴在桅杆上,并吩咐手下用蜡把他们的耳朵塞住。他还告诫他们通过死亡岛时不要理会他的命令和手势。

不久石岛就进入了他们的视线。奥德修斯听到了迷人的歌声。歌声如此令人神往,他绝望地挣扎着要解除束缚,并向随从叫喊着要他们驶向正在繁花茂盛的草地上唱歌的海妖姐妹,但没人理他。海员们驾驶船只一直向前,直到最后再也听不到歌声。这时他们才给奥德修斯松绑,取出他们耳朵中的蜡。这次塞壬海妖们算是白唱了歌。三姐妹中的老大帕耳塞洛珀深深地爱慕着奥德修斯。当他的船只走过后,她就投海自尽了。
