To those who think that Greece does not matter today, let me say that they could not make a bigger mistake. Today, like old Greece, is of the utmost importance for anyone looking to find himself.

Hope

And inevitably the day came when a ray of sunshine pierced the air

and managed to get into some minds that were not allowed

and inaccessibly became one with the environment and our frustrated thinking….

A shadow that managed to reach from the edge of the razor

walking in uncharted places shaped by demonic consciousnesses

and guilds that prey on dreams and expectations

of an entire seduced people for many endless years

and unwavering decades, filled with blood

of our grandfathers, fathers, mothers and grandmothers

from the stony and scorched years of survival and need……

A vision that wiped away tears and gave voice to the tragedy of pain

until he managed to shake the foundations of the regime

and the voracious claws of popular consciousness,

to aspire to that higher and unique ideal called HOMELAND.

The Mother of the Greeks, like the warrior Athena and Artemis.

The Greek woman whose eyes are still wet with tears

made the final decision to fight for justice in the dark

 that at the supreme moment the sunbeam managed to pass through,

with helpless difficulty in breaking through fear and habit,

that has shattered every last stone

that holds the foundations of our children's dreams together...

Sworn to the dust she held in her hands

and with eyes fixed on the bottomless sky

He stayed up all night on the steps of the decision that hurts

and in the sacred vision of the broadest and most troubled consciousness.

He took up the unknown and inviolable struggle

to alleviate the anguish and despair of an entire people

who waits leaning on the terraces of wonders

to redeem the intangible and colorless HOPE they gave him...!

A People Whose Homeland Was Fragmented Piece by Piece

and continue with the jaws of voracious barbarity

to tear apart the supreme truth that bleeds 

on hands red with the blood of the ruthless and inhuman

financiers of destruction and poverty.

Like the children of autumn who hang Alpha on their shoulders

and repay the dreams of their lost hopes

and play endless hours in the endless fields of the mind,

when teachers wander around in the carvings of their books

and return to the uninterrupted understanding of the lost age.

 They are children, they will say and they will hang the idea of ​​fraud

on a branch of an unripe olive tree that blooms in Spring.

They are children who did not have time to reach Epsilon

and their expectation was shattered in the glare of the conflict

after the iron shattered their hopes into carefree infinity.

Courage, Mom, and don't be intimidated by the unsaid words.

who open their mouths in parallel to the unchanging Universe.

Courage and be quiet like that conscience that flew away one morning

tied to a dream on the edge of the Horizon that you dream of...

Be quiet like those souls that wander in the valley

without hoping for parallel promises of transparency and security

who opened their false mouths at an inappropriate time

and they will remain suspended in the vast infinity

until the hidden justice of the unpunished shines forth

and may the souls taste a little of the long-awaited vindication.

Stay illegal in the thought of the endless ideas that stir

in some dark alleys with bulletproof glass.

For those who feared the tragedy of the truth

and they uncovered the hide of the unrepentant tyrant who commands you

without counting the drops of blood that streak the cheeks.

So go ahead and take root in the dreams of the children in the fields

 where they began to unfold strength and intellect,

on the dirt roads that were covered over and no longer exist.

Take the hands of the faithful who have sinned and speak a sweet word,

to feel you and get lost in their thoughts.

And with a little unexpected grace in those untrodden alleys

May the heartbeat of all hearts change and beat freely...

In ELPIDA, the children of lost dreams hope

the adults who with some love were forgotten on the dirt roads

and the old men who, with unfocused gaze, reminisce on the benches

What went wrong and what didn't they calculate correctly in the last hour they lost...

Do not be sad, Mother, Mother of the People who was betrayed.

waiting for you to slip away from the invisible vice

that accompanies tearful mouths day and night

and unfolds their sadness every morning they open

to utter that low "I love you" that stood out

from the voices and screams of the barbarians who were tearing down

and destroyed when the cannons of death fell silent.

Let us become one with the soil that covered your thought.

and let's count the oxygen we have left in our handful

to alleviate the pain of the contradictions that wounded us……
