HANGAMA HAI KYON -


Why is this commotion
If I have taken a drink
I have not committed a theft
neither burgled someone!

LOVE ME ..(NA M'AGAPAS)

Greek romantic song!

Once you kissed me
spoke to my heart
my body went as DROSOSTALIA
I dreamed what I tasted in my life
who fell in love with my sweet eyes

Love me, are you my boy
Do not forget bright star
Love me, are you the moon I
thanks for turning me straight to heaven

Come take me tonight
To dream you put me
and that you want to do until morning
Those who loved and lived with passion
cry even if they are lucky

Do you love me ..
(translation from Greek)

Mia forá me fíli̱ses
sti̱n kardiá mou míli̱ses
sto kormí mou kýli̱ses san drosostaliá
Ósa oneiréf̱ti̱ka sti̱ zo̱í̱ mou géf̱ti̱ka

 pou se ero̱téf̱ti̱ka mátia mou glyká
 Na m' agapás, na 'sai to agóri mou
 mi̱ me xechnás ástro fo̱teinó
 Na m' agapás, na 'sai to fengári mou

 na gyrnás gia chári̱ mou mes ton ouranó
 Éla apópse páre me
 st' óneiro sou vále me
 ki óti théleis káne me méchri to pro̱í
 Ósoi agapí̱sane kai me páthos zí̱sane
 ésto̱ ki an dakrýsane eínai tycheroí

 Na m' agapás..

FAITH

   is the bird
that feels the light
and
sings   when

the dawn
is still dark!

HAR BAAT PE KEHTE HO!

For everything I say
you answer with provocation
why don't you say what is this
style of conversation!
Flowing in veins is vain
unless blood it is
that flows from the eyes!!
dress struck with the flowing blood
why then my robe need
darning and reparation!!
when flesh is all burnt
heart must have burnt as well
your search for it in ashes
is all an exercise in frustation!!
