Abstract This paper discusses C.P. Cavafy's poem 'Trojans', with some textual and interpretatative remarks, as well as about the meaning of the poem's 'we', its language and its relation with Homer's Iliad and Cavafy's own poem 'Thermopylae', and with special attention to Helmut von den Steinens incorrect translation of the first lines and Bertolt Brecht's poem based on them, 'Bei der Lektüre eines spätgriechischen Dichters'.
