>>511406008With the help of God, with faith in our honorable struggle, with the support of all Hellenism and with the help of the Cypriots, we undertake the struggle to throw off the English yoke, with that motto, which our ancestors left us as a sacred legacy โCome back with your shield - or on it".
Fellow Cypriots,
From the depths of the centuries, all those who illuminated Greek history in order to preserve their freedom, the Marathon warriors, the Salamis warriors, the Three Hundred of Leonidas and the younger ones of the Albanian epic.
The fighters of '21 gaze at us, who taught us that liberation from the yoke of a tyrant is always obtained with blood. The whole of Hellenism is still looking at us, watching us with anxiety, but also with national pride.
Let us respond with deeds, that we will become "many chariots" of these.
It is time to show the world that if international diplomacy is unfair and largely cowardly, the Cypriot soul is brave.
If our rulers do not want to give us our freedom, we can claim it with our own HANDS and with our BLOOD.
The struggle will be hard.
The ruler has the means and the numbers. We have the soul. We also have whatโs right on our side. That is why we will WIN.
Greeks,
Wherever you are, hear our voice.
Forward! All together for the freedom of our Cyprus.
E.O.K.A.
