καὶ καπυρὸν γελάσας παραμείβεο, καὶ φίλον εἰπὼν
ῥῆμ᾽ ἐπ᾽ ἐμοί. Ῥίνθων εἴμ᾽ ὁ Συρακόσιος,
Μουσάων ὀλίγη τις ἀηδονίς: ἀλλὰ φλυάκων
ἐκ τραγικῶν ἴδιον κισσὸν ἐδραψάμεθα

— Paton edition

Un rire qui fuse au passage, et dis sur moi une parole amie. Je suis Rhintôn de Syracuse, un petit rossignol des Muses; aux parodies tragiques, nous avons cueilli notre lierre

— Waltz edition

Laugh frankly as you pass by and speak a kind word over me. I am the Syracusan Rintho, one of the lesser nightingales of the Muses; but from my tragic burlesques I plucked for myself a special wreath of ivy

— Paton modified

Fatti una bella risata passando, e una buona parola
dimmi. Rintone fui, di Siracusa,
un usignolo di Muse piccino; ma un'edera colsi
tutta mia, parodiando la tragedia.
