A Greek melody’s lyrics and setting was found on the gravestone of a rich merchant named Seikilos who dedicated the world’s first musical note to his wife in Tralleis in AD 1-2.century.You can get the chance to listen to the earliest known song of the earth (lament) and its first note music in Aydin,
“Seikilos planted me, I am a stone statue, to keep the memory alive, my duty forever …”
The lyrics of the song are as follows:
Shine as long as you live,
Don’t worry about anything,
Life is short and time
Makes you pay one day…
Euter’s (pes) son Seikilos was made it when he was still alive.
