by Kostis Palamas (1859 - 1943)

Gyrná ki ormá o Menélaos
Language: Greek (Ελληνικά) 
Gyrná ki ormá o Menélaos
me to spathí sto chéri
to Thánato stīn ápistīn
Elénī na prosférī.

All’ ekeínī ologálīnī
me t’ anthisméno chéri
to antícholo ki antílyto
votáni toy prosférei.

Kai to pínei o Menélaos,
kai toy péftei ap’ to chéri
to spathí, k’ éna fílīma
stīn Elénī prosférei.
