OCCUPIED CYPRUS: REMEMBERING KYRENIA

"...Pou thn Tzierynian erkoumoun epses eis t'oramam mou

Shierkes-shierkes epkiasasin t'astra ston ouranon mas

" ... I was coming from Kerynia last night in my dream
and the stones were calling me - they knew my name

and the stars in our sky joined hands
and said "we will not be divided in our own country"
