The Greeks planned for warA
On the delightful island of SalamisB
From the harbor of Athens you could see itC
Seized by the enemy's handD

And now our friends the islandersE
Are fitting out our shipsF
Earlier the English didn't loveG
The sweet European soilH

O Europe new HellasF
Save the Acropolis and PireusF
We do not need the island's giftsF
A forest of uninvited shipsF
