Greece is a woman

Greece is a woman

Ellada is her name

Her beauty is known

Wisdom is her fame

But she is suffering

And she is in pain

Everyone wants her

But nobody cares

Her body is aching

Covered with trash

Her soil is drained

Poison is vast

Greece is a woman

Ellada is her name

Her crystal clear waters

Cleansing your field

Her virgin beaches

Bringing you peace

Money and greed

Greed and money

Her body shivers

From anger and grief

Burnt down her forests

So she cannot breathe

Greece is a woman

Ellada is her name

She feeds you with fruits

But there’s not much left

Her sweet waters’ well

Is empty and dry

And she won’t give more

Unless you try

Try to be gentle

And plant good seeds

Try to be loving

And then see breaths

Greece is a woman

Ellada is her name

She is your home

Take care of her well

Nourish her garden

Blossom she will

She loves you deeply

Offer the same

Greece is a woman

Ellada is her name
