Dedicated to a valiant hero.
Heart of Worth
With your unconquered heart, you’ve kept your worth,
your greatness won over your lot;
forever held in memory’s light,
from Zeus you gain the most joyous sight.
My old beloved friend, I turn from pain,
that stirs like restless rain;
for, in your eyes, I still can see
a breathing spark of gentle green.
And of your words, soft and kind,
their tender grace stays in my mind;
and of your soul, so light, so fair,
I keep its touch beyond despair,
like butterfly wings in the air.
Ἀρετή καὶ Τιμή
Dove l'essenza dell'esistenza risiede
Il nulla dell'oblio viene superato
E il figlio prode avanza verso la Vittoria.
