Description
"Nightingales keep one awake in Platres". Tearful bird, In sea-kissed Cyprus My homeland I remember, Moored alone with this fairy tale, If fairy tale it truly is If true how can men not resort To the deceit of Gods If it is true How would another Tefkros, many years later Another Aiantos, Priamos or Ekavi Or some unknown, anonymous, even though He’s seen Scamandros overflow with corpses Lack the fate to listen to The messengers who come to say How so much pain, so much life To the abyss have gone All for an illusory idea of one Helen. George Seferis in 1963 was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature. (Translated by: B. Mihranian)
