Απόψε θα 'ρθει ο Χάροντας

Να μας καλέσει στον χορό του

Ελεύθερα θα πεθάνουνε

Τα παιδιά του Ζαλόγγου

(The reaper will come tonight

To invite us to his dance

The children of Zalongo

Will die free)

On December the 12th 1803

After the siege of Souli

The village was forced to sign a treaty

To leave behind their lands was agreed

The evacuation would be peaceful

If they obeyed the decree

On December the 16th

The Souliotes formed three groups

And while marching south the third one was

Ambushed and attacked

The men were massacred

Yet around 60 women survived

Facing death they screamed

Freedom or death until our final breath

We'll sing 'til the cliffs below claim us all

We will pay the price

No matter the cost

To shed the shackles of slavery

When pride and courage conquered fear

Certain death seemed preferable to life in captivity

Determination set in as the troops drew near

These women chose to embrace death and to die free

Freedom or death until our final breath

We'll sing 'til the cliffs below claim us all

We will pay the price

No matter the cost

To shed the shackles of slavery

The brave women of Souli

With their children in hand

They decided to die free

They danced, they sang

And then they jumped down to their death

Απόψε θα χορέψουμε

Απόψε θα χορέψουμε

Απόψε θα χορέψουμε

Μια τελευταία φορά

(Tonight we'll dance one last time)

Απόψε πια χορεύουμε

Απόψε πια χορεύουμε

Απόψε πια χορεύουμε

Για τελευταία φορά

(Tonight we are dancing for the last time)

Freedom or death until our final breath

We'll sing 'til the cliffs below claim us all

We will pay the price

No matter the cost

To shed the shackles of slavery
