"Εδώ είμαι. Μη Φοβάσαι. ― Μη βασανίζεσαι άλλο. Ήσυχος, στο στρώμα πλάγιαζε· σκεπάσου,
να μη βλέπεις ―να μην κοιτάς. Δεν πρέπει να Κοιτάς
το τίποτε· γιατί κι εκείνο στο τέλος θα γυρίσει, και θα σε δει.
Δεν πρέπει
―ν' αφήνεις να βλέπει
η ψυχή· γιατί αυτό που μόνο εκείνη μπορεί
να δει, στο τέλος ―θα το Δείς
―κι εσύ· "

“Here I am. Don’t be afraid. ― Don’t torture yourself anymore. Quietly 
lie on your mattress; cover yourself,
don’t see ― do Not look. You should not Look at the
Nothing; or Nothing will return in the end, and will See you.
You Should not
―let the soul to see; for what only soul can
see, in the end ―you'll see."

This piece was composed for the Ancient Drama Theatre play "Orestes" by Euripides translated by Giorgos Chimonas and staged in 2014 by the Theatre Group "KUNST" directed by Michalis Sionas.
