20001 - The swords and the shields

N. Lygeros
Translated from the Greek by Angeliki Papadopoulou

The swords and the shields
were ready
for the performance
of Erotokritos
they were only waiting
for the little humans
that they will continue
the tradition
so that nothing from the past
to be forgotten
so that the future
to remain
with values
that Vitsentzos Kornaros
showed us
before centuries
in order to live
free.
