Notated transposition of the Seikilos epitaph melody

I created this score with the following lilypond 2.2.5 code:

\score {
   \notes {
     \time 6/8 
     \clef treble
     \key d \major
     \relative c''{
       a8 e'4 e4.
       cis8( d e) d4.
       cis4 d8 e d( cis)
       b a4 b8( g4)
       a8 cis e d cis( d)
       cis a4 b8( g4)
       a8 cis b d e cis
       a a4 a8( fis e)
     }
   }
   \paper { }
   \midi { }
 } 

and invoked the interpreter with the --preview flag to get this simple PNG and the accompanying midi.

For the melody itself:

This image may not be in the public domain in these countries, which moreover do not implement the rule of the shorter term.
