στον αέρα σαν χαρταετοί,
παίρνω, αφήνω δρόμους και γυρνώ
λες κι έχω ένα φιλί παντοτινό.- Pétaxan ta óchi, ta giatí
ston aéra san chartaetoí,
paírno, afíno drómous kai gyrnó
les ki écho éna filí pantotinó. - The no's, the why's threw away
in the air like kites,
I take, leave roads and return
as if I have an everlasting kiss.

Η δημιουργία του χαρταετού χρονολογείται από τη Δυναστεία της Άνοιξης και του Φθινοπώρου, μετρώντας ήδη πάνω από 2.000 χρόνια ιστορίας.- I proélefsi tou chartaetoú échei tis rízes tis stin Kína, chrisimévontas me polloús trópous, ópos gia kalí týchi, metádosi minymáton, allá kai… polemikí propagánda. I dimiourgía tou chartaetoú chronologeítai apó ti Dynasteía tis Ánoixis kai tou Fthinopórou, metróntas ídi páno apó 2.000 chrónia istorías.
