You are laughing

How many years does love last
Keeping a tear secret
Dying every morning in the air
Blooming again every night.
 
Your love is an unbearable folly
A stabbing ravaging the day
A body tossed into the mud
Hugging tenderly the light
 
You are laughing, you are laughing, you are laughing
You are torturing me
You are laughing, you are laughing, you are laughing
You are torturing me
 
You were a flame in the snow, do you remember that?
Who knows where you might be in December
Oh, my soul, the night took you from me
In which sea are you now wandering?
 
I get drunk at the port at nights
I am asking the moons like a lunatic
If time, the thief , will bring you back on July
into my heart
 
You are laughing, you are laughing, you are laughing
You are torturing me
You are laughing, you are laughing, you are laughing
You are torturing me
 

If only you were just a dream

Why were you born, why?
To torture me?
Driving me crazy
ripping off my heart?
 
If only you were just a dream
that is over and gone
If only my heart would stop
asking for you.
 
If only you were a dream
you were a lie
and upon dawn
I could get over you.
 
Why were you born, why?
Who sent you to me?
So that I would walk alone
with my wings cut off?
 
If only you were just a dream
that is over and gone
If only my heart would stop
asking for you.
 
If only you were a dream
you were a lie
and upon dawn
I could get over you.
 
If only you were just a dream
that is over and gone
If only my heart would stop
asking for you.
 
If only you were a dream
you were a lie
and upon dawn
I could get over you.
 

A not handmade icon

The witches warn me about a danger, a black cloud

The requiem of the seal

This was Akrivoula
the grand-daughter of old-Loukena
She is crowned1 with seaweed
she is given shells as a dowry2
And the old-lady is still mourning over
her births of the past.
As if sorrows and sufferings
are ever going to come to an end.
 

• 1. στεφάνια= during the greek-orthodox wedding ceremony, the priest puts on the head of the married couple olive wreaths, reminding the ancient greek κότινος who crowned the heads of the athletes winning in Olympic games. Those wreaths were kept sacred in a frame and were put on the wall, above the bed inside the bedroom of the married couple , for a lifetime
• 2. Akrivoula was the heroine of the novel ' Μοιρολόγι της Φώκιας' , a young girl that fell by accident of the rocks into the deep sea and got drowned while her grandmother, Loukena, was doing laundry by the sea mourning over her lost beloved ones, near the cemetery.

Τhe song of the gypsy

With the batter, with the sledgehammer1
the gypsy wakes up the village
The village, the village
Tralala, laro, laro...
 
For the hammer, for the hammer
the fine young lady is crazy for it
the young lady, the young lady,
Tralala, lari, lari...
 
Inside the fire, inside the fire
the gypsy plays with this glance
the glance, the glance
Tralala, lara lara
 

• 1. βαρειό>βαριοπούλα> big heavy hammer

Psalm

Once again i am headed to your yard, my Christ
to bend over your beloved doorsteps
that my soul longs for, with an insatiable desire
Near you, my flesh rejoiced as my heart did too.
 
Τhe swallow found a nest and the turtle dove a shelter,
so that they would place in there poor chicks to lie down
into your holy altar, my immortal Christ.
Just one day spent in your yard, is better than thousands ( somewhere else)
 
If only i would be thrown aside in the shadow of your Temple
it would be better, than live where sinners hang out.
 

The dark turtle dove

Mother, i am the unfortunate, dark turtle dove
bitten by wind, hurt by the rain
The hapless! Wherever it might turn too, wherever it passes by
founds no rock to stand on, nor a branch to lie down.
 
I am the lonely little boat, the storm tossed little boat
inside the wide sea, inside the foamed sea
i am struggling against the waves, without sails, without a steering wheel
There is no other anchor for me, but your prayer and only.
 

Philosophy

I did many times, but I failed
I said to laugh, 'I can't'
 
'This is the only good thing about me'
I gonna say, but I laughed
 
Anyway
I gloss over everything
My emotion kept in average
 
I praise the best
I look down on the bad
I hid in normal
 
I could understand almost things
But I resist
Always
 
Everything lights and I felt envious
That night, possibly
I can't laugh
Is this minus emotion
Only minus?
oh
This is me
Yes I know I'm right
Yes I know I'm right
 
When I look down, someone said, 'Look up'
By force, I must do the best
 
But as I look down, my eyes looks up
And glare at anything, it's me
 
My philosophy will swing in the future
That's OK, aimlessly
Let's resist
 
Everyone unites and criticize for me
I can't feel nothing and defeat it
This minus emotion
Will multiply by minus
This is me
Yes I know I'm right
Yes I know I'm right
 
I am NOT afraid
I am NOT afraid to say
I got my soul I'm ready today
 
Everything lights and I felt envious
And you don't forget that thought and will glow
This minus emotion
Is not only minus
Oh
This is you
Yes you know You're right
 
Everyone unites and criticize for me
I can't feel nothing and get back it
This minus emotion
Will multiply by minus
This is me
Yes I know I'm right
Yes I know I'm right
 
I am NOT afraid
I am NOT afraid to say
I got my soul I'm ready today
 

The Armenians and the Greeks

The earth's spinning round and there’s a fire in my soul
I hurry towards my friends, already waiting for me!
And proud Mount Ararat beckons in beauty
The marine soul of Hellas held tight by the waves.
 
Only love and friendship
Unite us, light the way for us.
Together in a single song
Joy and sorrow
We feel once more
 
Chorus
The Armenians and the Greeks are brothers forever,
The same heart beats inside us!
And in the dance in a circle we will tell one another:
Yia sou, yia mas, anush to you,
Let us be merry in this hour!
 
We are two peoples like companions in destiny,
And have always shared everything.
For centuries we have walked beneath the same cross,
And in our truest heart, we're with the same Christ
 
Only love and friendship
Unite us, light the way for us.
Together in a single song
Joy and sorrow
We feel once more
 
Chorus
The Armenians and the Greeks are brothers forever,
The same heart beats inside us!
And in the dance in a circle we will tell one another:
Yia sou, yia mas, anush to you,
Let us be merry in this hour!
 

Adventure

Hello Hello Hello
It's an unrelated
Hello Hello Hello
Question on my side but
Hello Hello Hello
Have we met
Hello Hello Hello
Before, somewhere? 1
 
In the heart of the rainy town
Were we acting crazy?
We probably were.
Through the night
All through the night
We were singing in a daze
 
Unnoticed by anyone in the dead of night
Were we acting crazy?
We probably were.
Through the night
All through the night
We were dancing in a daze
 
Spelling meaningless vocabulary
Lining up our words
But actually
But actually
Not being told by anyone
 
Following meaningless notes
We played a melody
So frankly
So frankly
Let it resound in the wind
 
Every possible problem
And the repeating hardships too
With those we always
Have come to sing the substance of the words
 
Even the greatest challenges
And the disasters which seem to press hard
With those we always
Have come to sing your tears
 
When the thunder stopped roaring
Were we acting crazy?
We probably were.
Through the night
All through the night
We were waiting in a daze
 
You were approaching anybody
Were you acting crazy?
You probably were.
Through the night
All through the night
We were dancing in a daze
 
We were dancing to meaningless words
We played a waltz
But actually
But actually
It was to rock the words
 
Following a meaningless scale
Playing a melody
So frankly
So frankly
Let it resound
 
In cloudless August
The mountain range painted in brownish yellow colors
Has always reflected
The substance of our words
 
With our daring strategy
And a master-plan that's difficult to describe with words
We always
Take you along
 
Hello - Hello - Hello
I wanna sing a song for you
Hello - Hello - Hello
I wanna paint it all in blue
Hello - Hello - Hello
I wanna spit out things I drew
Hello - Hello - Hello
At the place where all the flowers are in bloom
 
Every possible problem
And the repeating hardships too
With those we always
Have sang the contents of our minds
 
With our daring strategy
And a master-plan that's difficult to describe with words
We always
Take you along!
Take you along!
Take you along!

Braća grci

Ne umoriču se da pričam,
I hoće mi se da peva samo o glavnom:
Iznad Grčke sunce zauvek će biti svetlo,
I duh ovog naroda će biti jak.
 
Ko braća svi smo mi grci,
I u srcu, i u duši,
I zauvek smo živimo ko jedina familija,
Elines...
Stanemo smo zajedno u jedan krug,
Elines, Elines,
Nek svi zapali ovo igranje!
 
I oblaci na plavom nebu
Sjaju ko belo-plava zastava,
Svi grci su ponosni na istoriju drevnu,
Da su prošli sve tuge preko vekovi i godine.
 
Ko braća svi smo mi grci,
I u srcu, i u duši,
I zauvek smo živimo ko jedina familija,
Elines...
Stanemo smo zajedno u jedan krug,
Elines, Elines,
Nek svi zapali ovo igranje!
