GREEK LYRICS
Segnoriso apo tin Kopsi tou spathiou tin tromeri;
Segnoriso apo tin opsi pou me via metra tin yi.
Ap ta Kokkala vyalmeni ton ellinon ta iera
Ke san prot' anthriomeni haire o hair'eleftheria.
Ke san prot' anthriomeni haire o hair'eleftheria,
Ke san prot' anthriomeni haire o hair'eleftheria.

GREEK LYRICS (Greek script)

ENGLISH TRANSLATION
I shall always recognise you
By the dreadful sword you hold,
As the earth, with searching vision,
You survey, with spirit bold.
'Twas the Greeks of old whose dying
Brought to birth our spirit free.
Now, with ancient valour rising,
Let us hail you, oh Liberty!
Is it the above you refer to Bafidis?
Dont you think we need a more neutral anthem encompassing ALL.?
Greeks are exactly what 80% of cypriots are.
Greek Cypriots = Ellinon!
If you are a Cypriot, then the current anthem would encompass you no doubt.
I may be Cypriot, but hell no, I am not 'ellinon'.
You wont even get Kiks agreeing to that.
No you are a Turk ... but CYPRUS is the home of Greeks. So that Anthem is true and if you want to live in Cyprus, you had better accept the fact you are not here to Turkify the island but accept it for its historically and majestically Greek identity.
There is NO going back Oracle. I am missing a bit, or had you not realised.
