Versione francese di Riccardo Venturi
SOTIRIS PETROULAS

Sotiris Petroulas, Sotiris Petroulas
Our Lambrakis lit the word in you; it said to be free
Lambrakis drew tho word from you; we must now be free!
Martyrs and heroes are the flames we must follow
His sky-blue eyes still beckon us forward
It's martyrs and heroes who are leading us now:
Eyes of never-dying blue light our way onward

Sotiris Petroulas, Sotiris Petroulas
The nightingale, lion, and mountain, the clear liquid sky
Nightingale, lion, mountain and sky so liquid blue
Martyrs and heroes leading, leading now
Those free blue eyes are glowing before us
It's martyrs and heroes doing the leading now
It's his sky-blue eyes still summoning forward

Sotiris Petroulas, Sotiris Petroulas
Rise before your own, your people--lead us there!
Call upon, arouse your people--lead us on!
It’s martyrs, it’s heroes always showing us how
His burning blue eyes sparking all fires before us
It's martyrs, it's heroes ever leading us now
His blue eyes in us the purest of all fires for us
Sotiris Petroulas, Sotiris Petroulas
CHANSON POUR SOTIRIS PETROULAS

Sotiris Pétroulas, Sotiris Pétroulas
Lambrakis t’a pris, la liberté t’a pris

Les martyrs et les héros nous guident
Tes yeux bleus nous appellent.

Sotiris Pétroulas, Sotiris Pétroulas
Rossignol et lion, montagnes, ciel étoilé.

Les martyrs et les héros nous guident
Tes yeux bleus nous appellent.

Sotiris Pétroulas, Sotiris Pétroulas,
Les mères soupirent, les montagnes soupirent!

Les martyrs et les héros nous guident
Tes yeux bleus nous appellent.

Sotiris Pétroulas, Sotiris Pétroulas,
Les filles, les jeunes hommes te portent dans leur cœur!

Les martyrs et les héros nous guident
Tes yeux bleus nous appellent.

Sotiris Pétroulas, Sotiris Pétroulas,
Sous ta guide le peuple avancera!

Les martyrs et les héros nous guident
Tes yeux bleus nous appellent.
