Orders From the Dead

The world is going up in flamesthe world is going up in flamesthe world is going up in flamesthe world is going up in flames

But these flames are not new to our deadOur dead did cry their final prayer in those flamesOur dead did sing their last lullaby in those flamesOur dead prayed to our infidelite God in those flamesOur dead whispered a last goodbye to their motherin those flames

"της είπα, μάνα, μη σκιάζεσαι, θα γυρίσουμε... έχε γεια... μάνα!"

Our dead clawed their children close inthe world is going up on flames

"τα παιδιά μου, καλέ, μην είδατε τα παιδιά μουγια όνομα του Θεούωχ, μου το πήρανε και τι να θέλω τη ζωήτα παιδιά μου!τα παιδιά μου!"

βάζει μια τρεχάλαγια την θάλασσαπέφτει και πνίγεται

Our dead watched their daughtersbutchered raped and beatenin the still-burning of those flames

Our dead watched an ax remove theirmother’s skulland crown a wooden spitin the continuous burning of those flames

Our dead watched while Chrysostomos'eyes and tongue were pulled out,teeth and fingers broken, one by one,in the laughing and the cheeringof those flames

"αρπάξανε από την τετράδα μαςτου σκίσανε την κοιλιά με μια μαχαιριάτον βάλανε και πάτησε κρατώνταςτ'άντερά του στα χέρια"

Our dead watched their sisters drenched with gasolineand scream with melting skinthe world is going up in flamesthe world which is going up in flames

"Για όνομα του Χριστού μη μας αφήσετεέχουμε μωρά μαζί μας, έχουμε γερόντους, κορίτσια...είστε υπεύθυνοι! Ναύαρχε! Ναύαρχε!

Φωτιά! φωτιά!"

Our dead were dragged in marchesthrough the desert sunfor weeks until the sun burned out their lungsand when the flames turned inside out their mouthsand ripped apart their lips, we heard their final prayerLord, God have mercy, please, upon our souls!

μας προδώσανε, μας ξεπουλήσανεπανάθεμά τους!Ναύαρχε... τι κάνεις;Ναύαρχε... σώστε μας!

Φωτιά! φωτιά!

They saw the world is going up in flamesburied, not yet dead inside the pits engraved :

“GIAOURI, INFIDELI : OUR GOD HAS CHOSEN YOU TO DIE”

Γονάτισε κάτω!Και γονατίζειΞεγυμνώσου!Και ξεγυμνώνεταιΆνοιξε τα σκέλια σου!Και τ'ανοίγειΧόρεψε!Και χορεύει.Φτύσε την τιμή σου και την πατρίδα σου!Και φτύνειΑπαρνήσου την πίστη σου!Και την απαρνιέται

And now the unblessed dead have ordered us to say:This is my grave, my holy bedYOU CANNOT take itYOU can NOT ERASE MY NAMEYOU can NOT ERASE OUR DEADYou cannot erase the deadBecause we have been ordered nowto list their names, their numbers,to give their date of birth, their earthly city,their father’s name, the sweetnessof their mother’s eyes

Orders from the dead

The world is going up in flamesthe world is going up in flamesthe world is going up in flamesthe world is going up in flames

But these flames are not new to our deadOur dead did cry their final prayer in those flamesOur dead did sing their last lullaby in those flamesOur dead prayed to our infidelite God in those flamesOur dead whispered a last goodbye to their motherin those flames

I told her ''Mother, don't be afraid, we'll return.So long, mother!''

Our dead clawed their children close inthe world is going up on flames

My children, have you seen my childrenFor God's sakeOh, they took it away from meWhy should I want my life (now)My children!My children!

She breaks into a runTowards the seaShe falls and drowns.

Our dead watched their daughtersbutchered raped and beatenin the still-burning of those flames

Our dead watched an ax remove theirmother’s skulland crown a wooden spitin the continuous burning of those flames

Our dead watched while Chrysostomos'eyes and tongue were pulled out,teeth and fingers broken, one by one,in the laughing and the cheeringof those flames.

They grabbed one of us fourThey tore up his abdomen with a stabThey made him walk holdingHis own intestines in his hands''

Our dead watched their sisters drenched with gasolineand scream with melting skinthe world is going up in flamesthe world which is going up in flames

''For Christ's sake don't leave usWe have babies with us, elders, girls...You are responsible! Admiral! Admiral!''

''Fire! Fire!''

Our dead were dragged in marchesThrough the desert sunFor weeks until the sun burned out their lungsAnd when the flames turned inside out their mouthsAnd ripped apart their lips, we heard their final prayerLord, God have mercy, please, upon our souls!

''They betrayed us, they sold us offDamn them!Admiral... what are you doing?Admiral... save us!

Fire! Fire!"

They saw the world is going up in flamesburied, not yet dead inside the pits engraved :

“GIAOURI, INFIDELI : OUR GOD HAS CHOSEN YOU TO DIE”

''Kneel down!''And she kneels''Undress!''And she undresses.''Open your legs!''And she opens them''Dance!''And she dances.''Spit on your honor and your homeland!''And she spits''Forsake your faith!''And she forsakes it.

And now the unblessed dead have ordered us to say:This is my grave, my holy bedYOU CANNOT take itYOU can NOT ERASE MY NAMEYOU can NOT ERASE OUR DEADYou cannot erase the deadBecause we have been ordered nowto list their names, their numbers,to give their date of birth, their earthly city,their father’s name, the sweetnessof their mother’s eyes
