Philodemos - Conversation with a Streetwalker lyrics

Hullo. Hullo to you. What's your name? What's yours? Don't be so forward. Don't you, then. Do you have a date? If anyone wants me. Have dinner with me tonight? If you like. Good. How much do you want? Don't give me anything now. That's unusual. You can decide how much to give me when we wake up. Fair enough. I'll send my boy for you. Where will you be? Who knows? When will you come, then? When you want me. I want you now. Lead the way. Philodemos, Epigrams 4 (Anthologia Graeca 5.46). Translation published in Andrew Dalby, Empire of Pleasures (Routledge, 2000) p. 261 Χαῖρε σύ. Καὶ σύ γε χαῖρε. Τί δεῖ σε καλεῖν; Σὲ δέ; Μή πω τοῦτο φιλόσπουδος. Μηδὲ σύ. Μὴ τιν᾽ ἔχεις; Ἀεὶ τὸν φιλέοντα. Θέλεις ἅμα σήμερον ἡμῖν δειπνεῖν; Εἰ σὺ θέλεις. Εὖγε: πόσου παρέσῃ; Μηδέν μοι προδίδου. Τοῦτο ξένον. Ἀλλ᾽ ὅσον ἄν σοι κοιμηθέντι δοκῇ, τοῦτο δός. Οὐκ ἀδικεῖς. Ποῦ γίνῃ; πέμψω. Καταμάνθανε. Πηνίκα δ᾽ ἥξεις; Ἥν σὺ θέλεις ὥρην. Εὐθὺ θέλω. Πρόαγε.
