The Hymn of PAS Giannina or Άγιαξ της Ηπείρου (Ajax of Epirus) is the anthem of the Greek multi-sport club PAS Giannina, based in Epirus.[1] The lyrics were written in the beginning of 70s by the Greek songwriter Alekos Kitsakis.[2][3][4]

Historically, the first hymn of PAS Giannina was composed by Alekos Kitsakis (lyrics and music). It was a march-style anthem and more oriented to football matches.[5][6]

In 2017, Mr. Christovasilis, addressed the Epirote singer Giannis Kapsalis (son of the clarinetist Stavros Kapsalis) who is a worthy follower of folk music and adores PAS Giannina to create a new anthem.[7][8]
