    "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"

    Yes, That is the one! Thank you very much.

    I heard it at the carnival in Rethymno, Crete. Is it a Greek traditional song? How would I get the lyrics to it?
