lyrics

(english translation below)

Θα ΄ρθει ξανά απ' τα παλιά ξεδιάντροπη μια φωνή
Ανατροπή όσα θα πει θα ψιθυρίζει στ' αυτί
Γι’ αυτά που χάθηκαν πόθους που κάηκαν να μου θυμίσει στεγνά
Πήδησαν, στρήγκλισαν, χόρεψαν, γλύστρισαν στης λησμονιάς την σκουριά

Δάκρυα πια ας κυλήσουν και ας ξυπνήσουν της ηδονής οι καημοί
Τ' αστρα να πλημμυρίσουν και να ανθίσουν οι διψασμένοι αγροί
Δάκρυα πια ας κυλήσουν και ας βυθίσουν τις λέμβους της λογικής
Είναι αυτή η πρώτη μέρα η καλημέε-ρα της λοιπής μου ζωής

Θα' ρθει ξανά στην παγωνιά ένα φιλί ζουμερό
Απ' τη θηλειά μια αγκαλιά, χάδι απ΄ άγαπης φτερό
Όσα με σκάλωσαν και με κρυστάλλωσαν τα 'χει πια λιώσει το φως
Τα 'χει παιδέψει και τά 'χει μερέψει ο βέβηλος μου στεναγμός

====

A shameless voice from the old days will come again
It will twist everything up
It will whisper in my ear about things long gone
It will dryly remind me of burnt desires
That jumped, screamed, danced and slipped into the rust of oblivion

Let the tears fall and awaken the sorrows of pleasure
Let the stars flood the sky and the thirsty valleys bloom
Let the tears fall and sink the rafts of logic
This is the first day, the “good morning” to my remaining life

From under the frost, a wet kiss will arise
From the noose to an embrace, a stroke from love’s feather
All these things that held me back
All these things that froze me yesterday,
Have been melted by the light,
Quenched and softened by my profane sighs

Trio Tekke Nicosia, Cyprus
