Could you please translate it or summarize it in english. :hathello:

I won't do it justice, but I'll translate the bold portions.

Sung by Sfakianakis, written by Maurakis

The wings opened the gates
in front they stood and shouted like thunder "Molon Lave" (come and get it)
It's not a myth, don't kid yourselves
In our days you are lost, but not forgotten
in these unfortunate times

Lighting and thunder mark your body
rabid dogs, want to tear
your land again like flesh

Your children chosen
dedicated to a death and living in foreign lands

Where are you "palikaria" (brave young men)

Cries that shouted "aera" (WW2 battle cry)
we will remember that day
our lost homelands
Until when on Hellas' "neck" (top)
will traitorous leaders nest

Oh, sad Hellas, deserted but glorious
how I love you
The heroes that ask us
not to let them eat
more parts of our homeland

But we gave birth to (Kolokotronis) and Karaiskaki
Who did we raise again, where are you palikaria?
Why and how can you be forgotten?

My country how much I love you.

Nice and what has this song to de with FYROM Macedonia, or did you mean it is from Macedonia region of Greece.

The song is about modern Hellenes not living up to the standards set by their forefathers. It is about defending your homeland and about all those that have already been lost. Politicians are also attacked for their traitorous actions.

Now, what does this song have to do with Macedonia? Well... perhaps only a Hellene can really understand. Hellas has fought 6 wars ("Makedonikos Agonas", 2 Balkan Wars, 2 World Wars, Communist/SNOF guerillas) in the past 100 years for this land. The mention of FYROM being called "Macedonia" drove millions of Hellenes (in Hellas and across the world) to street protests 10 years ago. The "softening" towards FYROM by the then ND government led to its collapse.

Today (much like then PM Mitsotakis predicted) it is quite different.

How true. But as I can see anyway, there are still those who will not forget to honor our ancestors.

Which album is that song from?

Nice lyrics. Is it a new song?

The song is from the 1997 album "Empeirion Sullektis" (ÅÌÐÅIÑIÙÍ ÓÕËËÅÊÔÇÓ).

What are the rules with regard to putting up links to copyrighted material (mp3's)? Perhaps I can put the file up somewhere in case you would like to hear it (if you can't get the CD or an mp3 download). This song is AWESOME.
