did the speaker add a bunch of words or is this a translation and the words just vary according to translation?

[poetryreincarnations]

@GATJR3 Yes translations between languages will always vary a poem like this has numerous translated versions.

That's a great reading Jim, but it's not Cavafy reading it. But a great voice whoever it is - someone English of course! Also a fine translation.
