The song, that girl, touches me
time and time again, although I don't want to
think often of her
That girl without hair comb
without dress, just only a number
on her hand
and Antonis who carries someone else's burden
For whom do I carry the burden
of their lives, why
is their life also mine?
It just has to be for you
neighbour, for you, refugee
for girls and for peace
The Ballad of Mauthausen (1963, Iakovos Kambanellis; 1965, music Mikis Theodorakis; 1966, performed by Maria Farantouri)
