"OXI".. The Great Day of Freedom
By: Rand Morsy
On the twenty-eighth
of October,
A great day that never fades,
Its memory is a light that illuminates
our paths,
And the strong, resounding **voice of freedom**.
"OXI"
Oh, the melody of courage and defiance,
"Greece" cried out "No" in the face of the aggressor.
So it earned glory
and eternal persistence
Let all places celebrate the victory.
In the schoolyards,
The voice of the young rings out,
With heroic anthems,
Setting hearts ablaze,
They march in the parade
in their beautiful attire,
A salute to the spirit of resistance,
generation after generation.
***
"OXI"
Is not just a fleeting memory,
But it is the soul of the nation,
And an overwhelming power,
A message that dignity is not compromised,
And that the Greek people do not surrender.
