Σπασμένο Καράβι [Spasmeno Karavi] [English translation]

A wrecked ship, let me be away in the deep,

let me be like this

without any masts, without any sails,

let me sleep.

Let the place be soft and the shore tranquil

all around

the hulk tilted and the bow there

where I'll lay.

Let the sea be spiritless and the fish dead,

let them be like this

and the rocks astonished and the stars remote,

let them gaze.

The hours beat less and the days sad

without clemency

and like this sunken and inanimate in muted nights

the moon.

Like this let me be a ship ravaged, lifeless,

let me be like this

on dead sands and in hollow water

let me sleep.
