This is the Seikilos Epitaph, the oldest known complete piece of music. It includes complete lyrics and musical notation.
Composer David Asher Brown recorded his interpretation of the piece. It’s haunting and mesmerizing.
The lyrics (a poem) are translated as:
while you live, shine
have no grief at all
life exists only for a short while
and Time demands his due

1. David is leaning over his keyboard and pointing to an overlaid description that reads ‘take a moment to listen to the oldest complete song in the world.’ He’s a middle-aged white man with short hair and a short beard. The video then shows an image of the epitaph, a marble cylinder with Greek inscriptions, with rotating text overlaid that summarizes what I’ve noted in my post.
