Ithaca

1.      As you set out on your way to Ithaca

2.      Hope that you have a long journey

3.      Full of adventure full of knowledge…

4.      Angry Poseidon- don’t be afraid of him

5.      Laistrygonians and Cyclops- monsters of imagination

6.      They won’t come unless you wake them up

7.      Rising from the bed of an unconscious sea

8.      Raising our mind high we escape into the blue sky

9.      Feeling a rare excitement in the spirit and the body

10.  Leaving behind our troubles with no concern at all…

11.  As you set out on your way to Ithaca

12.  Wish your journey is full of knowledge and adventure

13.  It doesn’t matter what the name of the island is

14.  Not the destination but the journey is important

15.  Someday your end will come in the unending ocean.
