On the twenty-eighth of October,
Greece awakens to a memory,
of the great “OXI” Day,
A resounding voice like thunder, that cannot be silenced.
***
In Athens, the battalions march with pride,
and the white and blue flags flutter,
telling the tale of a great refusal,
by a leader who spoke a resolute “No” that would not yield.
“OXI” was the decisive word,
A refusal that did not fear the strength of the invasion,
So the mountains embraced the cries of the heroes,
And Greece became a field of glory and victory.
So celebrate
the glorious “OXI” Day,
From Thessaloniki to Crete, and on every island,
Candles are lit, the fluttering flags are raised,
For the martyrs who irrigated the land with their blood,
So that freedom remains a right for all.
