Lyrics
(Variante d'une chanson de Leonard Cohen)
They poured across the borders
We were cautioned to surrender
This I could not do
Into the hills I vanished
No one ever asked me
Who I am or where I'm going
But those of you who know
You cover up my footprints
I have changed my name so often
I have lost my wife and children
But I have many friends
And some of them are with me
An old woman gave us shelter
Kept us hidden in a garrett
And then the soldiers came
She died without a whisper
There were three of us this morning
And I'm the only one this evening
Still I must go on
Frontiers are my prison
Oh the winds the winds are blowing
Through the graves the winds are blowing
Freedom soon will come
Then we'll come from the shadow
Anemoi ánemoi sfyrízoun
Stous táfous ánemoi sfyrízoun
Érhetai i lefteriá
Ki eméis mazí ap' ta skotádia
Writer(s): Anna Marly, Hy Zaret
