    The swallow song

    Lyrics by Haris Alexiou

    Music: Haris Alexiou

     

    Come here close

    to give you a kiss

    Come not my cry

    My white swallow

     

    God forbid our

    from eye looking evil

    God covers us

    when the soul frightens joy

    Tell me, what in fights?

     

    He laughed again

    My crystal-angel

    spring to come '

    illuminate the song

     

    Bees and butterflies

    adorning the wings you wear

    and clouds to open

    the goodness to show you, to speak

    To dwell too sideways

     

    With songs and sapphires

    I'll do the sake

    Do not hurt

    I will send you I Dolphin

    from Paphos to Kyrenia to wander

    all of the island favors wearing

    swallow, life singing

     

    A swallow

    Lyrics: Odysseas Elytis

    Music: Mikis Theodorakis

     

     

    A swallow and the exact spring

    to turn the sun wants a job lot

    He wants thousands dead be reels

    And wants the living to give their blood.

     

    my god Μaster builder with built in the mountains

    my god Μaster builder with have closed amid the sea!

     

    He was taken by wizards body May

    The have buried in a tomb of the sea

    in a deep well the 'junta closed

    sniffed the dark and the whole abyss

     

    my god Μaster builder into the lilacs you too

    my god Μaster builder sniffed Resurrection

    1)The following song talks about all these people who cannot live in freedom

    Oh, my swallow

    My swallow, how will you fly in this black sky?

    Blood is sheading in the sunset

    And how can you cry

    And how can you cry

    Oh, my swallow…

    Oh, my young man, the trains have already left,

    There is no way to go

    And those who spoke about liberty,

    Tell me, where did they go

    Oh, my young man…

    Oh, my little heart

    Prisoned, the sun which you are longing for

    Doesn’t come out,

    Only the crier of the market shouts out loud,

    Oh my little heart

    Lyrics: Lefteris Papadopoulos / Music: Manos Loesos / Voice: Giorgos Ntalaras

    με ζεστή ζεστή φαρίνα.                     me zesti zesti farina
