I shall always recognise you By the dreadful edge of the sword, I shall always recognise you By the gaze that forcefully measures the earth. From the sacred bones of the Hellenes reborn, And valiant as of old, Hail, o hail, Liberty! Hail, o hail, Liberty!
Σε γνωρίζω από την κόψη Του σπαθιού την τρομερή, Σε γνωρίζω από την όψη, Που με βία μετράει τη γη. Απ’ τα κόκκαλα βγαλμένη Των Ελλήνων τα ιερά, Και σαν πρώτα ανδρειωμένη, Χαίρε, ω χαίρε, Ελευθεριά!
