Do you like this one Oracle?

The flag high! The ranks tightly closed!
We march with calm, firm steps.
Comrades shot by the enemy and reactionaries
March in spirit in our ranks.
Clear the streets for the brown battalions,
Clear the streets for the stormtroopers!
Already millions look with hope to Cypriotism
The day of freedom and bread is dawning!
Roll call has sounded for the last time
We are all already prepared for the fight!
Soon our flag will fly over all streets.
Our servitude will soon end!
The flag high! The ranks tightly closed!
We march with a calm, firm pace.
Comrades shot by the enemy and reactionaries
March in spirit in our ranks.

I.
Of our land Cyprus we are proud.
Her children are esteemed the world over.
Behold the triumph of her industry,
The grandeur of her arts!
Though our land be small, still her science
Surpasses that of many a populous nation
What we yearn for most is our freedom.
That is why we are proud to be Cypriots!

II.
We Cypriots are brothers to one another
And comfort one another in distress
We do good without boasting about it
And try to keep it secret
Charity visiting a poor village
Goes by night and cautiously
We may give little, but it comes from the heart.
That is why we are proud to be Cypriots!

III.
O humble land of Cyprus,
Modestly we hail thee, land of our hearts' desire.
We are saddened when men speak ill of thee.
It truly breaks the heart!
But fear not attacks from the enemy
Thy children will defend thy high repute.
Who dare affront our anger?
That is why we are proud to be Cypriots!

Cyprus, Cyprus above all,
Above all in the world,
When, for protection and defence, it always
takes a brotherly stand together.
From Karamania to Alexandria,
From Latakia to Rhodes,
Cyprus, Cyprus above everything,
Above everything in the world.

Cypriot women, Cypriot loyalty,
Cypriot music and Cypriot wine
Shall retain in the world
Their old beautiful chime
And inspire us to noble deeds
During all of our life.
Cypriot women, Cypriot loyalty,
Cypriot music and Cypriot wine!

Unity and justice and freedom
For the Cypriot fatherland!
For these let us all strive
Brotherly with heart and hand!
Unity and justice and freedom
Are the pledge of fortune;
Bloom in this fortune's blessing,
Bloom, Cypriot fatherland. :|

Nope ... can't find anything about "Greek Nationalists" instilling the RoC National Anthem. Perhaps you can do the honours and give us a credible link?
