The mill is napping by the road

The mill is napping by the road
The sun has set in the West long ago
The moon is playing in the creek
And listening to my song
 
Even if you're not here
Even if you're far
I want to tell you and you alone
What's in my heart
 
I want to dream a summer's dream
About you
I want to sing this song at least once
With you by the river
 
Even if you're not here
Even if you're far
I want to tell you and you alone
What's in my heart
 
How should I call you?
Where should I meet you?
Let's go wait for the sunset
And return to meet the dawn
 
Even if you're not here
Even if you're far
I want to tell you and you alone
What's in my heart
 

Passed (and) Forgotten

Passed (and) forgotten, however, I have learned
I neither love you nor hate you.
 
Alone again by myself, you are inside my mind
Look at me, now stop pretending anymore
I forget all that you had said for me
Alone by myself I get along better
 
Passed (and) forgotten all of your mistakes
I put them away and forgave you
Passed (and) forgotten, however, I have learned
I neither love you nor hate you
 
It finished with your last lie
Τhe cycle closed for me and you
I laughed, what if you had made me upside down
Ι forgot, Ι go further
 
Passed (and) forgotten all of your mistakes
I put them away and forgave you
Passed (and) forgotten, however, I have learned
I neither love you nor hate you
 
As much as you insist
You will be staying alone by yourself
With yourself you wage war again
You don’t understand
Αs much as you intervene
Τhe distance gets bigger for us
 
Passed (and) forgotten all of your mistakes
I put them away and forgave you
Passed (and) forgotten, however, I have learned
I neither love you nor hate you
 

Come Back to Me

Crying I ask you
To return to my side
'Cause our great love
Should not end
 
If loving you is a sin,
It doesn't matter if I sin today
Only at your side,
I always want to be
 
Because now, without your love
I'm nothing
Come back to me
I will live for you
And my love for you will always be
 
You left my side
Perhaps for my mistakes
That today I have understood too late
And now, crying, I ask you to return to my side
 
I will live for you
And my love for you will always be
 

I want to die

I want to die, I want to die,
I want to die so I won't be in pain 1
But who will look upon my slum 2
When it will remain deserted and orphaned?
 
I have a mother and siblings, I have a wife and children,
And if I close my eyes 3, they will remain in the alleys
 
The days aren't passing by, the days aren't passing by,
The days aren't passing by so that I won't be bitter
All, no more, the weights have fallen on me
And how am I supposed to carry them on my two feet?
 
I have a mother and siblings, I have a wife and children
And if I close my eyes they will remain in the alleys
 
I want to die, I want to die,
I want to die so that I might redeem myself
But the blackness of poverty 4 has judged me,
I will neither die nor live.
 

• 1. Literally, so I won't be hurt.
• 2. 'φτωχόσπιτό' is a compound word that literally translates to 'poor house'.
• 3. Literally, 'little eyes'.
• 4. Literally, this says 'black poverty', but could be interpreted to mean the darkness of poverty.

I never love

I never love, I am bluntly saying this to you
and if you loved me, tell me why this is any of my concern
 
Don't get gloomy without reason towards bitterness and pain
I never love, I never settle
 
My life is unstable, I like freedom
just like gypsies, who don't live in the same city
 
Don't get gloomy without reason towards bitterness and pain
I never love, I never settle
 
Even if we part ways, so what, this should not scare you
a better boy is suitable for you
 
Don't get gloomy without reason towards bitterness and pain
I never love, I never settle
 

40 waves

I drop oil in the fire
i fall in it again
I am burning for you
i melt my steel in bad condition.
 
E EEE
 
i will pass 40 waves for you
and paths without return.
I have learned to love with my heart
and you have learned to love with compulsion.

Don't close the door on me

Don't close the door on me
open up, so I may enter
and don't leave me outside
 
Just like the raindrops
are wetting my body
so is my bitter tear
dripping in my soul
 
Don't close the door on me
forgive my mistake
and don't excoriate me
 
Don't close the door on me
the pain I gave you
don't give me back
 
Much as I went astray,
I came back to you,
because you are the
biggest love of mine
 
Don't close the door on me
forgive my mistake
and don't excoriate me
 

Taenia

It's1 a ribbon-shaped anellid2
Invading the human body:
Its scolex bears four suckers
and - by Jove! - it's a true parasite!
Bulimia, anemia, severe inappetence:
they are all proof of its presence.
Headache, vertigo, hypochondria:
Holy shit! - it hasn't gone yet!
 
[You must] eat marinated herrings,
Garlic, salted anchovies,
Do a nice cleaning enema
And your Taenia, your Taenia, will go away!
It won't cause you edemas and haemorrhages anymore!
And your Taenia, your Taenia, will go away
If you expel its head, too...!

Here Where All Ends

Alone again at dawns I think about you
Alone again I dream scenarios
I wonder how much they1 don't know
How much are heartbroken people afraid and they1suffer
 
And my every word tonight is stupid
And my every thought tonight is you
And you know what, that's it
I truly write this at 6 in the morning
 
I am in tears, I am smoking
I am trying not to make any noise so I won't wake my parents up
Just like the old days
But seriously why am I remembering those days
 
And the bad thing is I said that I'll move on
And I met you and I saw her in your eyes
The only difference was that you smiled at me
And you made me hope
 
Why I have to speak, I am overly thinking ways to not show that I am blushing
And if there is something that eats2 me this moment is how much I want to learn everything about you
 
Why I have to let you go, don't go home, not now stay for a little bit
You don't know how long I have to look at a pair of eyes that lights a flame up so easily
 
And all started here where all ends and let everything else go it3's unnecessary
I'm not asking much, I'm not one of them, I feel your love with just an embrace
 
I feel your heart to my heart
I feel your eyes sending messages
And if you're asking me why I'm still not talking and not telling you 'I love you'
It's because 40 waves4 hurt me a lot
 
And wounds don't heal and even if they5 don't seem they5 are always here
But if they5 have something to give it's that they5 taught me to never give up
But I still see myself as a coward when it comes to hold everything I want to say back
I don't let me express myself because I'm afraid of rejection so much.
 
More than everything else in the world and my soul is exposed like a piece of glass, what else do I have?
A drop that flows on the windowpane and suddenly stops and stays frozen
 
A tear flows tonight
Stop lying
And if you're not feeling well it's okay
Leave everything aside and feel
 
The wind on your forehead
A person who is all yours
And all they6 want is your own good
Wipe your tears from your cheek
 
The days of sadness have passed by and only memories are left
Which7 still cause pain, still hold you back and don't let you move on
 
But why is this my fault and why is this your fault
Why you should listent to this song
Because I have a problem in my head
So much that I'm afraid that love will turn into a waste
 
Come again for a little bit, come again and tell me that I treat you good
Because to me that's the important, everything else is pointlless and a turn off
 
But why is this my fault and why is this your fault
Why you should listent to this song
Because I have a problem in my head
And I'm afraid that love will change into a waste
 
Come again for a little bit, come again and tell me that I treat you good
Because to me that's the important, everything else is pointlless and a turn off
 
Talk to me about eros, talk to me about nights without daybreaks
Talk to me about everything you want to tell me
Even if I already know the half of them
The way your eyes look at me is wonderful
 
Even if they8 cause pain, I take the risk
Because I'm afraid they know how to love
I don't care where it goes and where we go
Provided we are together and we laugh...

Chinese teacups

A gramophone a gogo
playing and playing
irascible guerilla well
bombing, bombing.
 
He showed the dread in a peculiar way
family house couch springs
old kalimba, old
old kalimba
 
Chinese flower vase, winged dragon shield
mansion
wallclock, fool shield
crossed swords against the wall.
 
Deputy hanging his head, doctor in medicine
experimenting bodies eaten by beetles
A shelf with bloodless scalpels
and dentures
with enervatings in the plaques
Dentures
above chinese teacups
 
A missionary sugar bowl, a light peribody
is the picture of coruro (the picture of coruro)
that died hard and couldn't (that died hard and couldn't)
avoid the dread.

Se dioksan ap'tin Kokkinia | Σε διώξαν απ΄ την Κοκκινιά

παρακάνει
και στο Χατζηκυριάκειο άμυαλη
άρχισες το, άρχισες το σεργιάνι
 
Στη Δραπετσώνα τα `φαγες στου Παύλου και στου Γκίκα
και στα Ταμπούρια του Μηνά, του φουκαρά
που του `μεινε, που του `μεινε η γλύκα
 
Εδώ να κάτσεις φρόνιμα τ’ ακούς ξεμυαλισμένη
γιατί αν ήρθες για μαλλί, άμυαλη,
θα φύγεις κου θα φύγεις κουρεμένη
 

Everything's Black

What's a drink to me
when my heart's in pain
after all I lost you, and I can't get you back
it's all gone black, it's all gone black
 
What's money to me
or even sweet drunkenness
after all with fire, my openness you attack
it's all gone black, it's all gone black
 
What's life to me
without you now
after all you've in him you see, something I seem to lack
it's all gone black, it's all gone black
 

Zinguala

Zinguala, Zinguala, Zinguala
You are my sun, my moon, and my light
You are a singularly luxurious jewel of the world
My dark-skinned beauty
My eternal joy
Zinguala, Zinguala, Zinguala
 
Zinguala, Zinguala, Zinguala
Tell me what is making you bitterly unhappy
If you leave me I would not stand your loss
My dark-skinned beauty
My eternal joy
Zinguala, Zinguala, Zinguala
 

Around The Sun

How far the earth is from the sun
How far away from me you will be, you will be
I live from you and around you I rotate
As the earth spins around the sun
 
I count the seasons
I count the empty sky
In orbit around the sun
Around the sun
 
How high, I climb high to reach you
But you burn my wings like the sun
I fall in the night to the earth trying to forget
But how can I forget the sun
 
From your light I awaken
Again in the empty sky
In orbit around the sun
Around the sun
 

Into the street of madness

Into the street of madness
Number zero
You left me alone
I'm burnt by pain
Into the street of madness
You will find me
To talk with you
Without you.
 
And you are far away from me
And i'm losing myself
And i don't feel anything
And i don't feel,
Into the street of madness.
 
Into the street of madness
Number zero
The time who hurts me
Is talking about you.
Into the street of madness
You will find me
To talk with you
Without you.
 

Who am I

Who am I to judge a sinner,
To make cun of an insane
Who cries into the tavern(restaurant),
Who am I, i have my own drawbacks
And i tell that i cannot forgive you,poor girl
 
The rock of sinless is not for me,
I dont throw it to the sinner, the thief,
Because of the way of life ,
I throw the rock in front of my mirror,
Others can try to be like god,
Who am I.
 
Who am I, to throw a rock to thiefs
Who live behind closed doors, behind the bars,
Who am I to judge a killer
And to applause everyone else.
 
The rock of sinless is not for me,
I dont throw it to the sinner, the thief,
Because of the way of life ,
I throw the rock in front of my mirror,
Others can try to be like god,
Who am I.
 

Open mom, open

Get up, my sweet mother
and run to open the door for me
to squeeze in your arms
the child you'd written off
 
Open mom, open up
it's not a stranger knocking
It's your son knocking, my mom
the one who took the wrong road
 
I made you bitter, I hurt you
and you aged for me
but let all those things
be forgotten
 
Open mom, open up
it's not a stranger knocking
It's your son knocking, my mom
the one who took the wrong road
 
A neighboring door opens up
and someone shouts to me:
'Don't knock at that house
nobody lives there!'
 

The dog from Trieste

For many years
I've been far from you
My old Trieste 1.
I've been left alone an
I wanted some,
some company.
 
So a guy from Treviso
sent me a cute dog
born in a tavern.
But that son of a dog,
That son of a dog of dog
was always sad.
 
It never greeted me,
not even to me that I'm its owner.
So I sent a letter,
a compliance letter.
So the trevisan guy 2 answered me
explaining me why.
 
Only in front of a flask of wine
that son of a dog greets
'Cause it's a dog from Trieste,
'Cause it's a dog from Trieste
 
In front of a flask of wine
that son of a dog greets,
'Cause it's a dog from Trieste
and it likes wine!
 
Since some months ago
I've learned to drink,
As a porter of the dock
And in this way I know
That one day I'll here
my death knell.
 
But who gives a... pardon!
They can make ding dong
If I'm gonna die happy
'Cause that son of a dog,
That son of a dog of dog,
Is so happy.
 
Now it licks me like a crazy
'Cause I stink more and more of wine.
And I know it loves me, that I have a friend
For the very first time in my life.
And it's enough one year of this good life
And then what will be will be.
 
Only in front of a flask of wine
that son of a dog greets,
'Cause it's a dog from Trieste
Cause it's a dog from Trieste.
 
In front of a flask of wine
that son of a dog greets,
'Cause it's a dog from Trieste
and it likes wine!
 
'Cause it's a dog from Trieste
And it likes wine! Yeah!
And it likes wine! Yeah!
And it likes wine! Yeah!
 
Happy so and then, well!
Happy so and then, well!
 

I'll say it outwardly

Why do you ask me secretly
If my heart cries for the woman I love
for man it'll never be a shame
to speak of his love outwardly
 
I'll say it outwardly
for her I wither,
I tyranize myself, I hurt
suffer and melt
 
Why do you put salt on my wounds?
Why do you treat me to poison?
Doesn't anyone feel me in this Dounia?*
I'll leave far away and forget
 
Dounia is a large mountain range near Sparti which is often used metaphorically in songs to refer to something of great magnitude
 
I'll say it outwardly
for her I wither,
I tyranize myself, I hurt
suffer and melt
 

Catastrophes and worries

Catastrophies and worries
beat me day and night
I never breathed
in this bullet
 
Mother why did you birth me
to live Ike a damned man
worries hit me,
poverties and injustice
 
I never did injustice to anyone
why would they do injustice to me
and why would they separate me
from the woman that I love
 

The fisherman

Why don't you want me
my lady
because I'm a fisherman?
I'm a bit of a troublemaker
as a fisherman and boater is
 
And you dare to think
that you won't be well off with me
 
I have a small boat
with oars and a sail
and I fish every night
alone with the fishing line
 
And I sell the fish I catch
in the market
 
And if I walk barefoot
don't look at me and laugh
I know how to look after
the woman that I'll have
 
And to cater to her happiness
no matter if I'm a fisherman
 

Unending cigarette

Versions: #2
I'll walk alone this night too
in hopes of finding
the water of your disrememberance
and in dark basements
I'll find a sign in a glass
until dawn's panic
 
Endless cigarette
my heavy loneliness
resembles a woman
tired from the street
she flashes a smile
sits near me
treats the next round
and pats me on the shoulder
 
I see your eyes
In a glass with a lit candle*
and weep silently
The noose of your song
wrings around my
again hazy mind
 
Endless cigarette
my heavy loneliness
resembles a woman
tired from the street
she flashes a smile
sits near me
treats the next round
and pats my on the shoulder
 
*Candle set next to religious icons as part of prayer and ceremony
 

People of the Sand

In the wind
Alone
Back again
Will return to home the soldiers.
Where, for what,
Why-
Maybe barely later
Will know those, where they will come.
 
[Choir]
To grow with grass
With sea to breath
(Don't be afraid, if) will die of ague
Will reborn one.
 
The desert
Again of sky
Asking over again:
Where disappeared the water?
Don't sleep-
Said to her-
Maybe tonight
You will be remembered...
 
[Choir]
To grow with grass
With sea to breath
(Don't be afraid, if) will die of ague
Will reborn one.
 
People of the Sand in the road,
in the road, <...> in the road, people of the sand, in the road <...>
 
[Choir]
To grow with grass
With sea to breath
(Don't be afraid, if) will die of ague
Will reborn one.
 

A mother's heart

For me, my mother you aged
bit by bit you nutured me
and I forgot it all, ah!
and I pushed you aside
and I forgot it all, ah!
and I pushed you aside
 
For a woman, I closed the door on you
I said harsh words to you my mother
and when she left me too,
you came back as before
and showed me love and solace
 
I behaved ungrateful, my mother
for a heart that I loved
my mother, how could you
ah! Forgive me
my mother, how could you
ah! Forgive me
 
for a woman, I closed the door on you
I said harsh words to you, my mother
and when she left me too
you came back as before
and showed me love and solace
 

If you look at my chest

If you look at my chest
you'll see the scars
and if only you could look deeper
at my bitter heart
that's become a wreck
 
For a woman I lost
every hope and joy
my poor palaces
with my eyes I saw death
countless times
 
They tell me to deny her
and abandon her
but how can I do this
since I live her madly
oh how can I forget her
 

Unhappy man

Unhappy man*
get used to the fact
that in this life
few will be your joys
more will be your disasters
and countless griefs
 
Tears don't solve anything
So reluctantly take
the pain** that hits you
 
Make room in your heart
to fit your worries
drink the bitterness like wine
in the society of lies
we all live in anticipation
you, get used to it too
 
*human
**incidents which bear pain.
 

When a person gets drunk

When a person gets drunk
nobody should judge him
because who knows what ache
he hides in his heart
 
Some get drunk out of joy
and other out of sorrow
and I, because of my love
who is missing from my size
 
Everyone gets drunk and forgets
but I, I remember her
and as long as she's away
I'll be consistently intoxicated
 
Some get drunk out of joy
and other out of sorrow
and I, out of my love
who is missing from my size
 

I'll find a talking baglama

I'll find a talking* baglama
like a crying person
so I can hit its cords
and it'll tell my pain
 
My baglama will cast away
the wither of my heart
 
There's not enough room for the pain
in my defiant heart
my baglama remains
as my last solace
 
My baglama will cast away
the wither of my heart
 
I'll find a talking* baglama
to make him my friend
since no one feels me
i'll die with him
 
My baglama will cast away
the wither of my heart
 
*talking/ nagging/
 

I'm a lost body

I am a lost body
a dissapaited substance
missing from my housee
and far from my home town
I'm tumbling downhill deeper everyday
 
For you, heartless woman I'm slowly dying
for you I became a lost body
 
Like the black night birds
I live in darkness
salvation for me no longer exists
My finalé will be pain
and catastrophe
 
For you, heartless woman I'm slowly dying
for you I became a lost body
 
Life's twigs whip me with no pity
but I don't pity my lost body
I'm just crying for* a mother, who I've made deeply bitter*
 
*with the connotation of feeling deep regret and sadness
**+ worried, having been made so upset with the result of weakness and helplessness
 

Sâmbătă noapte

Cartierele miros,
A busuioc și limetă
Copiii se joacă în secret,
Jocul iubirii în curți
 
Frumoasa noapte de sâmbătă a mea
La fel de frumos ca învierea lui Hristos
O melodie tristă de Tsitani,
Plânge undeva în depărtare
 
Se duce o altă noapte frumoasă în seara asta,
O altă seară frumoasă
Vine luni,
Va fi din nou amărăciune și întuneric
Ah! Dacă numai întreaga noastră viață,
A fost o seară de sâmbătă
Și dacă numai secerătorul sumbru,
Ar veni duminică seara
 
Bărbații pleacă de la serviciu
Și ei coboară
La pub,
Să-și înece povara lor grea
 
Și se pare că luna se îmbracă
Fetele,
Spală însele în spălătorie
Cu rochia de nuntă albă
 
Se duce o altă noapte frumoasă în seara asta,
O altă seară frumoasă
Vine luni,
Va fi din nou amărăciune și întuneric
Ah! Dacă numai întreaga noastră viață,
A fost o seară de sâmbătă
Și dacă numai secerătorul sumbru,
Ar veni într-o duminică seara
