Spyros Giasafakis - Epitaph of Seikilos

[@iliast]

The exact translation is:
"While you live, shine
Have no grief at all
Life exists only for a short while
And time demands its toll."

[@MarkellosVicente]

This simple ancient song seems to demand a classical attention.

[@Carminielloz]

Did she speak Greek before starting playing?

[@DaemoniaNymphe]

Yes, she did

[@Bearded_Tattooed_Guy]

She quoted one of the insciptions of the Seikilos Stele:
"I am a tombstone, an image. Seikilos placed me here as a long-lasting sign of deathless remembrance."

[@alexharrington6459]

Yes and ancient Greek at that.

[@2010georgian1]

yes, a very common thing to do with ancient music

[@user-cg7cc7zj3e]

Now if Denmark could just return it ( tablet) home.

[@chanrabutazo]

[@alexharrington6459]

She spoke ancient Greek.

[@aaronm.3581]

She said Don't Eat the Brown Acid

A Modern Lyric Set To This Timelessly Beautiful Music.
THE WORD OF GOD
IN A WORLD OF LIES
SOME MAY FORGET
THE WORD OF GOD
SPEAKS TRUTH STILL YET
SUN MOON THE STARS
ALL NATURE PROCLAIMS
THE WORD OF GOD
FOREVER REMAINS
THE WORD OF GOD
FOREVER SHALL BE
ETERNAL TRUTH
UNIVERSALLY
IN A WORLD OF LIES
SOME MAY FORGET
THE WORD OF GOD
SPEAKS TRUTH STILL YET
THOUGH EVILS LIES
TYRANTS SUSTAIN
SPREADING WAR
HATE HUNGER AND PAIN
THEY LIVE TO DIE
IT WAS EVER THE SAME
THEIR CRIMES THEIR LIES
GOD WON'T FORGET
AS A CHILD WE'RE BORN
TO LIVE AS TO GROW
TO LEARN OF LOVE
BEFORE LIES KNOW
TO FIND LOVES TRUTH
AS WE LIVE THRU LIFE
WITH THE WORD OF GOD
TO GUIDE US TO LIGHT
IN A WORLD OF LIES
SOME MAY FORGET
THE WORD OF GOD
SPEAKS TRUTH STILL YET
SUN MOON THE STARS
ALL NATURE PROCLAIMS
THE WORD OF GOD
FOREVER REMAINS
THE WORD OF GOD
FOREVER SHALL BE
ETERNAL TRUTH
UNIVERSALLY
IN A WORLD OF LIES
SOME MAY FORGET
THE WORD OF GOD
SPEAKS TRUTH STILL YET

Pro tip: Remove the man from the thumbnail, and add the woman, or at least both, and you'll get more views. I thought this was going to be sung in a deep man's voice, but I clicked anyway.

[@monkeytherapycentre7364]

What a stupid fucking comment

[@DeltaDusk125]

I like the man's singing.
I already heard another version with a woman singing.
Why would you assume we would rather listen to female singers than males??
