[Verse 1]
Marble columns greet the morning sun,
Ancient voices whisper one by one,
From the hills where old philosophers stood,
Athens still shines proud and strong and good.

]Verse 2]
Down the narrow streets the music plays,
Bouzouki songs drift through the evening haze,
Olive branches dance in ocean air,
Beauty and history are everywhere.

[Chorus]
Athens, Athens, city of the flame,
Time may pass but glory stays the same,
Land of wisdom, sea, and endless skies,
Greece forever lives where legends rise.

[instrumental solo]

[Verse 3]
White sails glimmer on the Aegean sea,
Carrying dreams across eternity,
Tavern lights glow warm beneath the stars,
Echoing stories from old temple scars.

[Verse 4]
The Parthenon watches through the night,
Bathed in silver moon and golden light,
Heroes, poets, lovers through the years,
Built a land remembered through our tears.

[Chorus]
Athens, Athens, city of the flame,
Time may pass but glory stays the same,
Land of wisdom, sea, and endless skies,
Greece forever lives where legends rise.

[instrumental solo]

[Verse 5]
Oh Greece, your spirit never fades away,
You live in every song the people play,
From mountain villages to harbors blue,
The heart of freedom still belongs to you.

[verse 6]
Jenni fills her home with laughter and delight,
Cooking Greek traditions through the glowing night,
Lisa, Morgan, Halsey, Janessa gather near,
Five hearts full of joy and fun are shining here.

Chorus
Athens, Athens, city of the flame,
Time may pass but glory stays the same,
Land of wisdom, sea, and endless skies,
Greece forever lives where legends rise.
