The last resplendecent morning star
heralded the coming of the sun on high
No mist or shadow dared to mar
the sheer prefection of the cloudless sky
from where a gentle breeze would blow
caressing the faces down below
as if to murmur into the heart’s recesses
Life is sweet and…
Life is sweet
De Dionysios Solomos ( no livreto da banda sonora de Eleni Karaindrou para o filme Eternity and a Day de Theo Angelopoulos )
