IMNOS EIS TIN ELEFTHERIANS

Adopted in 1864

The National Anthem is the same as that of Cyprus

Words by DIONYSIOS SOLOMÓS (1798-1857)

Segnoriso apo tin Kopsi tou spathiou tin tromeri;

Segnoriso apo tin opsi pou me via metra tin yi.

Ap ta Kokkala vyalmeni ton ellinon ta iera

Ke san prot' anthriomeni haire o hair'eleftheria.

Ke san prot' anthriomeni haire o hair'eleftheria,

Ke san prot' anthriomeni haire o hair'eleftheria.

TRANSLATIONI shall always recognise you

By the dreadful sword you hold,

As the earth, with searching vision,

You survey, with spirit bold.

'Twas the Greeks of old whose dying

Brought to birth our spirit free.

Now, with ancient valour rising,

Let us hail you, oh Liberty!
