Ἀγαθῇ Τύχῃ·
πολλὰ μέν, ὦ Ῥοδοπαῖε, τεῇ δωρήϲαο πάτρῃ
πολλὰ τὰ μήτε λέγειν εὔκολα μήτ' ἀριθμεῖν·
ἡ δὲ πόλιϲ ϲε, πάτερ, μεγάλαιϲ δωρήϲατο τιμαῖϲ
ἱδρύϲαϲα τεὴν εἰκόνα μαρμαρέην
ὅππωϲ μήτ' ὁ χρόνοϲ τὴν ϲήν, πολυφίλτατε, μορφὴν
μηδὲν ἀμαυρώϲῃ λήθῃ ἐπιϲκιάϲαϲ.
ἐυτυχῶϲ.

To Good Fortune. You have made many presents to your country, Rhodopaios, so many that they are not easy to say or to count; and the city has presented you with great honours, father, having set up your image in marble so that time may not obscure your image - you who are loved by many - overshadowing it with forgetfulness. With good fortune!

Vieles hast du, Rhodopaios, deiner Vaterstadt geschenkt, Vieles, das auszusprechen oder zu zählen schwere wäre; aber die Stadt hat dich, Vater, mit grossen Ehren beschenkt, indem sie dein Bild in Marmor aufgestellt hat, damit selbst die Zeit deine, Vielgeliebter, Gestalt nicht beschatten und verdunkeln könne.
