This is a story of Greek messenger
Sent from a battlefield
It comes from the ancient legend

Where Persians met with defeat

It was a long distance run from Sparta to Athens

Twenty seven miles of rush to bring the message of the victory
And finally he reached his destination with words nenikamen


Hero of the Marathon
Somewhere along the road
you're a distant melody

in the ancient history

They run the road in silence

Following his every step
They feel joy and sadness
Throughout the gruelling race

They want to be the hero they want to be the same
No matter of exhaustion no matter of the pain


They run for freedom to overcome weakness
Their body functions working at full steam
The peloton gets longer some break away from the pack

When finishing line gets closer no one survives intact

We won!


Hero of the Marathon
Somewhere along the road

you're a distant melody
of the ancient history


And when we close our eyes
We see the antique land of Greece
