18020 - Life’s words

N. Lygeros
Translated from the Greek by Angeliki Papadopoulou, Evi Charitidou

Life’s words
were so innocent
that their sweetness
touched us
deep in our hearts
because then
we understood
that all together
with Erotokritos
we could see
the Golden century
wherever we are
because Hellenism
belongs to Time
and not to space
because it is a gift
to Humanity
that is fighting
against barbarity
for the innocents
through the Justs
who don’t forget.
