The Odyssey (/ˈɒdəsi/;Greek: Ὀδύσσεια Odýsseia, pronounced [o.dýs.sej.ja] in Classical Attic) is one of two major ancient Greek epic poems attributed to Homer. It is, in part, a sequel to the Iliad, the other work ascribed to Homer. The poem is fundamental to the modern Western canon, and is the second oldest extant work of Western literature, the Iliad being the oldest. Scholars believe it was composed near the end of the 8th century BC, somewhere in Ionia, the Greek coastal region of Anatolia.
The poem mainly focuses on the Greek hero Odysseus (known as Ulysses in Roman myths) and his journey home after the fall of Troy. It takes Odysseus ten years to reach Ithaca after the ten-year Trojan War. In his absence, it is assumed he has died, and his wife Penelope and son Telemachus must deal with a group of unruly suitors, the Mnesteres (Greek: Μνηστῆρες) or Proci, who compete for Penelope's hand in marriage.
It continues to be read in the Homeric Greek and translated into modern languages around the world. Many scholars believe that the original poem was composed in an oral tradition by an aoidos (epic poet/singer), perhaps a rhapsode (professional performer), and was more likely intended to be heard than read. The details of the ancient oral performance, and the story's conversion to a written work inspire continual debate among scholars. The Odyssey was written in a poetic dialect of Greek—a literary amalgam of Aeolic Greek, Ionic Greek, and other Ancient Greek dialects—and comprises 12,110 lines of dactylic hexameter. Among the most noteworthy elements of the text are its non-linear plot, and the influence on events of choices made by women and serfs, besides the actions of fighting men. In the English language as well as many others, the word odyssey has come to refer to an epic voyage.
First official recording done by J Ri. This song is part one of three of an abbreviated retelling of Homer's Odyssey. The instrumental is from Common's song Be from the album of the same title which was produced by the late legend J Dilla. All rights belong to UMG.
This is my submission to the STA Travel Internship. It was a lot of fun to make hope you enjoy it.
This track is off my refinedhype.com released "The Odyssey: Lost At Sea" mixtape. A good friend of mine, Paige Beller allowed me to use a loop of her guitar playing from her original song I May Be No One and attach her last chorus to create a brief, but powerful look into a story of romantic deceit and the toying with of hearts. (The Only Home I've Obtained And Need) Instrumental is from Big Seans Okay. Recording done by J-Ri of Aplha Team records. Please rate/comment.

A ti, ahora que estoy pensando en ti
que estoy atada solo a ti,
aunque me cueste ser sincera.
Pienso que casi no s? ni lo que s?,
si fui una santa si pequ?
si te aborrezco aunque te quiera.
T? dir? s si hice de menos o de mas
si fui adelante o hacia atr? s,
si he sido falsa o verdadera,
que se yo, si heche al amor o? l se march?
si busque un si y encuentro un no,
quien de los dos fue responsable.
(estribillo)
Ver? s, todo empez? porque dud?
dud? de ti, dud? de mi
de lo visible y lo invisible,
ya lo ves creci? despacio entre los dos
la cordillera del rencor
con su lareda inaccesible,
y escap? de nuestras manos
eso que fue inevitablemente amor
o simplemente un imposible.
Mientras duerme estoy
pensando en lo de siempre
en que estar? so? ando ahora
al fin y al cabo que mas da
a ti.
A ti, ahora que estoy pensando en ti
que estoy atada solo a ti,
aunque me cueste ser sincera.
Mientras duerme estoy
pensando en lo de siempre
en que estar? so? ando ahora
al fin y al cabo que mas da
