#StamatisSpanoudakis
Lightning strikes (Θάρθεις σάν αστραπή)
Composed, arranged, produced & performed by Stamatis Spanoudakis
Lyrics: Stamatis Spanoudakis
Choir: Dionysis Apostolatos
From the CD "Marble king"
Directed by Τasos Birsim at Herodus Atticus theater 1998
Edited by Niikolas Economidis
LIGHTNING STRIKES (Translated by Ion Stamboulis)
Lightning strikes when you're near
joy for all when you're here
earth and sea and all of the sky
'neath your watchful eye
I will be dressed in white
just to hold you so tight
you're the light and I am the heart
never shall we part
King of Kings, help the King, help the King
Mercy, mercy Oh Heavenly Father
Constantinos Dragatsis Paleologos
Emperor of Romans with the Grace of God,
At-the-Saint Romanus gate
Gallantly riding his white leg-ged mare
Mercy, mercy for the four times "beta"
Marmaras, Bosphorus and Black Tuesday
Shudder oh Sun, cry mother earth
The city has fallen, the city has fallen
The capital and the golden gate
And the purple-born at the Red Apple Tree
The city was the honest sword
The city was the spear
The city was the secret key
To all of Romania
Patience dear Lady
No need for tears
And be sure that when they're due
They'll be yours again
From Romans gate you did go
where you went I don't know
an Angel will return with you
when the time is due
In the church we will be
hand in hand you and me
joined in voices that shall be free
together we will be
Constantinos Dragatsis Paleologos

yes why istanbul? i am a turkish. language is dynamic and language change is directly proportional to art and cultural values so Constantinople is istanbul now 1.islambol 2.islambul 3.IstAnbul. we can say language is live and if your language is good your social live is good but we cant speak turkish but we are turkish... its istanbul

Great 2000 years of history. The last Roman true heirs, the Greeks. I hope Greece will overcome all the hardships it is facing now. The last emperor of Rome also impressed me in Korea. Only if you're alive, the will of the last emperor is immortal. You are Rome and Constantinople.

The Serbian Empire destroyed and conquered most of the Byzantine Empire and buried the hopes of the Palaiologos Dynasty. Serbian incompetence led to their quick collapse, allowing the Ottoman Turks to conquer the Balkans and surround Constantinople on all sides. Last to bear the Byzantine cross, what a laugh!

Constantine XI lives forever as the last Roman that bears the strength, duty and defiant nature of those Trojans, Romans and Hellenes before him - Hector, Aeneas, Horatius, Scaevola, Cincinnatus, Marcus Camillus, Leonidas, Alexander, Scipio, Caesar, Augustus, Trajan, Hadrian, Aurelius, Gallienus, Aurelian, Constantine, Majorian, Justinian, Heraclius, Maurice, Basil and the Konmenoi before him.
