    Hey, Zakynthos! Though I understand some of it, I'd rather understand it as a whole.
    Can you give a version in English?

    Hey all! I will try to give a translation, though it's very difficult and it will take time. Thank you for your interest.

    Hi Zak!

    Translation seems ok. Why don't you use a table to separate English text so that it can be read by people?

    For those who wanna know the theme of this poem here's a picture of the Destruction of Smyrna

    "Gilgamesh, where are you hurrying to?
    You will never find that life for which you are looking.
    When the gods created man they allotted to him death,
    but life they retained in their own keeping"
