Polvere da sparo

A pugno chiuso, Pavlos!

The world has become a big prison
and I ‘m looking for a way to break the chains.
There is a place waiting for me,
there at a high mountain peak for me to arrive.
That’s why I stretch again my two hands very high,
to steal some light from the bright stars.
I cannot take it down here and I’m about to choke from
this human misery, as much as sorrow.
I cannot stand it anymore and all these people were not from me,
so I followed another path and not the one they forced me to.
It was rough, tough and with many pitfalls,
bad love and friends like venomous vipers.
It had monsters with strange uniforms
always secretly lurking in the shadows.
Don’t stop if you decide to follow it,
tighten your teeth firmly and do not cry.
I took it myself and reached its end
and as the old wise people write in books
when the sun reaches its end,
eagles will light a fire from above.
To those who betrayed me by back stabbing me I want them to know that
I will not bother to cry.
And to all my old loves I want them to know that
I will not bother to cry.
And to those that threatened me burning chains I want them to know that
I will not bother with fear.
Let them come and find me at the mountain top, I’m waiting for them and
I will not bother with fear.

They told me not to have “crazy” dreams,
not dare to look at the stars,
but I ‘ve never took them seriously,
I took the whole world in my arms.
They want nowadays to build me a nest,
where there ‘s more fear, ugliness
and a moaning cry and a heavy chain,
carrying the curse of the gods and blasphemy.
I will not shed a tear and I will not be afraid.
I will not let them steal my dreams.
I fly free, high, very high
while they are jealous of my proud unbound wings.
And I’m waiting for other brothers to come here
in this mountain peak waiting for them all,
as long as they don’t cry and fear
living in this well thought fraud.

To those who betrayed me by back stabbing me I want them to know that
I will not bother to cry.
And to all my old loves I want them to know that
I will not bother to cry.
And to those that threatened me burning chains I want them to know that
I will not bother with fear.
Let them come and find me at the mountain top, I’m waiting for them and
I will not bother with fear.

To those who betrayed me by back stabbing me I want them to know that
I will not bother to cry.
And to all my old loves I want them to know that
I will not bother to cry.
And to those that threatened me burning chains I want them to know that
I will not bother with fear.
Let them come and find me at the mountain top, I’m waiting for them and.. 

Il testo di una canzone di Pavlos Fissas, conosciuto nel mondo della musica come Killah P…
ucciso dai fascisti di Alba Dorata nelle strade di Keratsini, periferia ovest ateniese.
Trentaquattro anni, rapper, era con un amico e la sua fidanzata in giro quando è sono stati attaccati da un gruppo di Alba Dorata, partito neonazista greco, finchè non è arrivata una macchina, il cui autista è sceso e l’ha colpito a morte, al cuore e allo stomaco.
E’ morto poco dopo in ospedale, mentre la sua morte è stata “vigilata” da una moto della polizia che è intervenuta solamente a coltellate date: il suo assassino, 45enne appartenente ad Alba Dorata di nome Georgios Roupakias (Γεώργιος Ρουπακιάς) e più che conosciuto nel mondo dell’estrema destra greca, è stato poi arrestato.

Ecco quei cosi schifosi de Alba Dorata

Le strade greche hanno risposto immediatamente a questo balordo assassinio: più di 26 città hanno visto ogni vicolo riempirsi di determinazione, odio antifascista e scontri con la polizia. Athens, Thessaloniki, Patras, Larisa, Chania, Rethimno, Iraklio, Kozani, Trikala, Komotini, Mytilene, Chios, Kalamata, Corinth, Preveza, Volos, Agrinio, Arta, Ptolemaida, Mesollogi, Samos, Serres, Giannena, Alexandroupolis, e Livadia: tutte queste città erano solo una piazza, solo uno slogan,
un solo urlo di rabbia che si propaga per un paese che non ne può più della repressione dello Stato e della manovalanza fascista che sempre più colpisce migranti e antifascisti.
Si contano centinaia di arresti, ma anche una determinazione che non verrà fermata con la repressione, nè con le cariche della polizia.

A PAVLOS, A PUGNO CHIUSO!
