Neither English nor greek are my Native tongue, but let's try as there came no other translations:

My body

My body, today you won again
and you bent my heart,
burning [= very hot] darkness (is) within me loneliness,
my poor body, I do not command you any longer.

My body,
my body, made of clay
my body,
you do what you like with the mind
my body.

My body, today on the evening you revolted
you left me without soul,
the Erinyes [= Greek goddesses of revenge etc.] will come wherever you go,
my body, you sink (you perish) on the way you go.

(Surely no perfect translation, but perhaps it is a help for you)

Mike A.
