Mono dyo tragoudia eho kai trito molis vgei

De ksero pou vrika to ptoma mia kai tote itan ekei

Tora periplanomai ston tafo tis mousikis

Gia ta dyo tragoudia kai to trito molis vgei



Enas plousios mou eipe fere kota kai zoumi

Mono dyo tragoudia eho kai trito molis vgei

De ksero pou vrika to ptoma mia kai tote itan ekei

Piga sto lefko iko kai rotao ton pyravlo

An pote den eixe complex I kati san afto

Here's a direct retranslation of greek#3 from greek back to english. some people thought it'd be fun to read. the english of course is not correct, but I translated it literally. in greek too, s

Hings sound weird. like, the expression with the 'chicken and juice'. never heard it before!



I just have two songs and a third one when it comes out*

I don't know where I found the body** since then it was there

Now I'm wandering around music's grave

For the two songs and the third one when it comes out



A rich guy told me "bring a chicken and juice" (!)

A poor guy told me that he can't tell

And now I'm waiting like a chicken for God on earth



I just have two songs and a third one when it comes out

I don't know where I found the body since it was there then

Now I'm wandering around music's grave

For the two songs and the third one when it comes out



I went to the white house and asked the rocket (!)

If he ever had a complex or something of the sort

But he started babbling like he as on tv

"i don't have just two songs

What do you want from me? "



I bought some new, tight bluejeans

And a 'baglama'***

And I told the ladies to be nice to me

So that I won't feel guilty for not going far

For the two songs and the third one when it comes out



* literally 'as soon as' but it would be too long

** literally 'dead body', cadaver

*** a very tiny traditional greek guitar-like instrument, a tiny 'bouzouki'
