lyrics

(english translation below)
Ζάλη, μπουκάλι, αρπάζω την σκυτάλη
Νύχτα το νήμα, μπουρδούκλωσε το βήμα
Ποιος θα σβήσει την φωτιά και ποιος θα με αντέξει
Έλα να βροντήξουμε ν' αστράψουμε πριν φέξει

Πριν μας κλέψει την γιορτή και πριν μας κοροϊδέψει
Με καράτια 'στραφτερά τ' αφτιά να μας χαϊδέψει
Μην τινάζεις τ' όνειρο που έχει η νύχτα πλέξει
Ντού να πυρπολήσουμε το χάραμα πριν φέξει


Μόνη αχτίδα, στη ξέφρενη παρτίδα
Μάγος ο κράσος μου βγήκε πάλι ο άσσος
Μα δεν θα ναι γούρικο μου φαίνεται το χέρι
Είναι που με στράβωσε τούτο το πεφταστέρι

Πριν μας κλέψει την γιορτή και πριν μας κοροϊδέψει
Με καράτια ΄στραφτερά τ' αφτιά να μας χαϊδέψει
Μην βουλιάζεις τ' όνειρο ο πυρετός θ' αντέξει
Ντου να πυρπολήσουμε το χάραμα πριν φέξει


Έχω κυρά μου, μια θέση στην πυρά μου
Ζέστη του βάθους, εγκαύματα του πάθους
Γλίστρησε στην αγκαλιά Μαινάδα ξαναμμένη
Ν' αγκομαχήσουμε τα δυό σαν λύκοι αγριεμένοι

Πριν μας κλέψει την γιορτή και πριν μας κοροϊδέψει
Με καράτια 'στραφτερά τ' αφτιά να μας χαϊδέψει
Μην ραγίζεις το γυαλί της νύχτας πριν τις έξι
Φφφού να ντουμανιάσουμε, τη λαίλαπα να θρέψει

Μην ξεχειλώνεις τ' όνειρο που έχει η νύχτα πλέξει
Ντου να πυρπολήσουμε το χάραμα πριν φέξει

===

Giddy by the bottle, the baton I grasp
The night is a thread; my step, a mess
Who will quench my fire? The flames who will bear?
Let us roar and shine together before the sun is near

Our feast before it spoils, our eyes before they fool
Before it strokes our ears with gold and with jewels
Do not wreck the dream woven by the night
Let’s set it all on fire before the golden sunrise

I am the only beam of light in this wild card game
Wine’s a wizard, here’s the ace again
It’s not that I am lucky, neither is the hand
I became reckless by this shooting star

Our feast before it spoils, our eyes before they fool
Before it strokes our ears with gold and with jewels
Do not wreck the dream, the fever will live on
Let’s set it all on fire before the shining dawn

My lady, you have a place in my blaze
Heat of the depths, lust, burns and pain
Slip into my arms, you flushed Maenad
Let’s groan the night together like hungry wolves

Our feast before it spoils, our eyes before they fool
Before it strokes our ears with gold and with jewels
Do not crack the glass of night before the clock strikes six
Our smoke will feed this hurricane

Do not spoil the dream woven by the night
Let’s set it all on fire before the gleaming light
