Odysseus between Scylla and Charybdis

The songs are 'Ta palia mou vasana' (TA ΠΑΛIA MOY BAΣANA) and 'Veggera' (ΒΕΓΓΕΡΑ) from Giannis Parios (ΓΙΑΝΝΗΣ ΠΑΡΙΟΣ).

Odysseus (Ὀδυσσεύς), the protagonist of the epic poem ,The Odyssey (Ὀδύσσεια) by Homer (Ὅμηρος), has to go through a narrow pass, beset by danger on both sides. On one side, there is Scylla (Σκύλλα), a nymph turned into a sea monster, with dog heads from her waist, catches men with her long tentacles to eat them. On the other side, there is Charybdis (Χάρυβδις), a naiad turned into a sea-monster that creates whirlpools that pull men down the sea to drown.
