A sólyom asszony fia

Se lepedő, se egy matrac, hogy lefeküdhessek
Még fény sincsen, hogy olvashassam leveled
Az édes leveled, oh, édesanyám
Nyár van, itt mégis fázok a hidegtől
Széltében egy méter, hosszában kettő
A cellám, oh, édesanyám
 
De nem élhetek térden csúszva
Én vagyok a sólyomasszony fia
Oda se neki, ha trajtam sebeket szakítanak
Ellen állok a kínzó tüzek rohamainak
Anyám nem sajnálkozz, anyám ne sirass
 
Egy véres rongycsomó rajtam a ruházat
Azzal vetek nyughelyemül ágyat
A nedves betonon, oh, édesanyám
A mellettem lévő cellában
Testvért hoztak valami sorstársat
Vajon, meddig bírja majd, oh, édesanyám
 
De nem élhetek térden csúszva..
 

An old love story

Versions: #1
Don't mess with ashes to light again the fire
our love is dead for good.
But even there are some sparkles that exist
with a blowing of the wind, these also would be lost for good.
 
With a new love, I will find my new path in life
you have been and an old love story for me
you have been and an old love story for me
with a new love, I will find my new path in life.
 
Once you laughed when I was crying
you treated me like a dog pushing me from here to there.
But now those years have passed forever
and the new times are not the same
now it's my turn to laugh and it's your turn to cry.
 
With a new love, I will find my new path in life
you have been and an old love story for me
you have been and an old love story for me
with a new love, I will find my new path in life.
 
Your image has been erased from my heart
spiders are covering it and it is hidden inside its shame.
In order for you not to be my life's shadow
go and search to find someone else
before your heart would grow old.
 
With a new love, I will find my new path in life
you have been and an old love story for me
you have been and an old love story for me
with a new love, I will find my new path in life.
 

This is our last night together

Versions: #1
This is our last night left
that we will spend together
you will be far away from me
before the morning comes
because this is our last night together
 
My love, I am losing you
it was written in the stars
but as long as I live in this world
I would be waiting for you to come back to me
 
My love, you will be gone
it was written in the stars
but as long as I live in this world
I would be waiting for you to come back to me
 
This is our last night left

you will be far away from me

I want to die

I want to die, I want to die,
I want to die so I won't be in pain 1
But who will look upon my slum 2
When it will remain deserted and orphaned?
 
I have a mother and siblings, I have a wife and children,
And if I close my eyes 3, they will remain in the alleys
 
The days aren't passing by, the days aren't passing by,
The days aren't passing by so that I won't be bitter
All, no more, the weights have fallen on me
And how am I supposed to carry them on my two feet?
 
I have a mother and siblings, I have a wife and children
And if I close my eyes they will remain in the alleys
 
I want to die, I want to die,
I want to die so that I might redeem myself
But the blackness of poverty 4 has judged me,
I will neither die nor live.
 

• 1. Literally, so I won't be hurt.
• 2. 'φτωχόσπιτό' is a compound word that literally translates to 'poor house'.
• 3. Literally, 'little eyes'.
• 4. Literally, this says 'black poverty', but could be interpreted to mean the darkness of poverty.

I never love

I never love, I am bluntly saying this to you
and if you loved me, tell me why this is any of my concern
 
Don't get gloomy without reason towards bitterness and pain
I never love, I never settle
 
My life is unstable, I like freedom
just like gypsies, who don't live in the same city
 
Don't get gloomy without reason towards bitterness and pain
I never love, I never settle
 
Even if we part ways, so what, this should not scare you
a better boy is suitable for you
 
Don't get gloomy without reason towards bitterness and pain
I never love, I never settle
 

Don't close the door on me

Don't close the door on me
open up, so I may enter
and don't leave me outside
 
Just like the raindrops
are wetting my body
so is my bitter tear
dripping in my soul
 
Don't close the door on me
forgive my mistake
and don't excoriate me
 
Don't close the door on me
the pain I gave you
don't give me back
 
Much as I went astray,
I came back to you,
because you are the
biggest love of mine
 
Don't close the door on me
forgive my mistake
and don't excoriate me

παρακάνει
και στο Χατζηκυριάκειο άμυαλη
άρχισες το, άρχισες το σεργιάνι
 
Στη Δραπετσώνα τα `φαγες στου Παύλου και στου Γκίκα
και στα Ταμπούρια του Μηνά, του φουκαρά
που του `μεινε, που του `μεινε η γλύκα
 
Εδώ να κάτσεις φρόνιμα τ’ ακούς ξεμυαλισμένη
γιατί αν ήρθες για μαλλί, άμυαλη,
θα φύγεις κου θα φύγεις κουρεμένη
 

Zinguala

Zinguala, Zinguala, Zinguala
You are my sun, my moon, and my light
You are a singularly luxurious jewel of the world
My dark-skinned beauty
My eternal joy
Zinguala, Zinguala, Zinguala
 
Zinguala, Zinguala, Zinguala
Tell me what is making you bitterly unhappy
If you leave me I would not stand your loss
My dark-skinned beauty
My eternal joy
Zinguala, Zinguala, Zinguala
 

Into the street of madness

Into the street of madness
Number zero
You left me alone
I'm burnt by pain
Into the street of madness
You will find me
To talk with you
Without you.
 
And you are far away from me
And i'm losing myself
And i don't feel anything
And i don't feel,
Into the street of madness.
 
Into the street of madness
Number zero
The time who hurts me
Is talking about you.
Into the street of madness
You will find me
To talk with you
Without you.
 

Who am I

Who am I to judge a sinner,
To make cun of an insane
Who cries into the tavern(restaurant),
Who am I, i have my own drawbacks
And i tell that i cannot forgive you,poor girl
 
The rock of sinless is not for me,
I dont throw it to the sinner, the thief,
Because of the way of life ,
I throw the rock in front of my mirror,
Others can try to be like god,
Who am I.
 
Who am I, to throw a rock to thiefs
Who live behind closed doors, behind the bars,
Who am I to judge a killer
And to applause everyone else.
 
The rock of sinless is not for me,
I dont throw it to the sinner, the thief,
Because of the way of life ,
I throw the rock in front of my mirror,
Others can try to be like god,
Who am I.
 

Open mom, open

Get up, my sweet mother
and run to open the door for me
to squeeze in your arms
the child you'd written off
 
Open mom, open up
it's not a stranger knocking
It's your son knocking, my mom
the one who took the wrong road
 
I made you bitter, I hurt you
and you aged for me
but let all those things
be forgotten
 
Open mom, open up
it's not a stranger knocking
It's your son knocking, my mom
the one who took the wrong road
 
A neighboring door opens up
and someone shouts to me:
'Don't knock at that house
nobody lives there!'
 

I'll say it outwardly

Why do you ask me secretly
If my heart cries for the woman I love
for man it'll never be a shame
to speak of his love outwardly
 
I'll say it outwardly
for her I wither,
I tyranize myself, I hurt
suffer and melt
 
Why do you put salt on my wounds?
Why do you treat me to poison?
Doesn't anyone feel me in this Dounia?*
I'll leave far away and forget
 
Dounia is a large mountain range near Sparti which is often used metaphorically in songs to refer to something of great magnitude
 
I'll say it outwardly
for her I wither,
I tyranize myself, I hurt
suffer and melt
 

Catastrophes and worries

Catastrophies and worries
beat me day and night
I never breathed
in this bullet
 
Mother why did you birth me
to live Ike a damned man
worries hit me,
poverties and injustice
 
I never did injustice to anyone
why would they do injustice to me
and why would they separate me
from the woman that I love
 

The fisherman

Why don't you want me
my lady
because I'm a fisherman?
I'm a bit of a troublemaker
as a fisherman and boater is
 
And you dare to think
that you won't be well off with me
 
I have a small boat
with oars and a sail
and I fish every night
alone with the fishing line
 
And I sell the fish I catch
in the market
 
And if I walk barefoot
don't look at me and laugh
I know how to look after
the woman that I'll have
 
And to cater to her happiness
no matter if I'm a fisherman
 

A mother's heart

For me, my mother you aged
bit by bit you nutured me
and I forgot it all, ah!
and I pushed you aside
and I forgot it all, ah!
and I pushed you aside
 
For a woman, I closed the door on you
I said harsh words to you my mother
and when she left me too,
you came back as before
and showed me love and solace
 
I behaved ungrateful, my mother
for a heart that I loved
my mother, how could you
ah! Forgive me
my mother, how could you
ah! Forgive me
 
for a woman, I closed the door on you
I said harsh words to you, my mother
and when she left me too
you came back as before
and showed me love and solace
 

Unhappy man

Unhappy man*
get used to the fact
that in this life
few will be your joys
more will be your disasters
and countless griefs
 
Tears don't solve anything
So reluctantly take
the pain** that hits you
 
Make room in your heart
to fit your worries
drink the bitterness like wine
in the society of lies
we all live in anticipation
you, get used to it too
 
*human
**incidents which bear pain.
 

If you look at my chest

If you look at my chest
you'll see the scars
and if only you could look deeper
at my bitter heart
that's become a wreck
 
For a woman I lost
every hope and joy
my poor palaces
with my eyes I saw death
countless times
 
They tell me to deny her
and abandon her
but how can I do this
since I live her madly
oh how can I forget her
 

I'll find a talking baglama

I'll find a talking* baglama
like a crying person
so I can hit its cords
and it'll tell my pain
 
My baglama will cast away
the wither of my heart
 
There's not enough room for the pain
in my defiant heart
my baglama remains
as my last solace
 
My baglama will cast away
the wither of my heart
 
I'll find a talking* baglama
to make him my friend
since no one feels me
i'll die with him
 
My baglama will cast away
the wither of my heart
 
*talking/ nagging/
 

When a person gets drunk

When a person gets drunk
nobody should judge him
because who knows what ache
he hides in his heart
 
Some get drunk out of joy
and other out of sorrow
and I, because of my love
who is missing from my size
 
Everyone gets drunk and forgets
but I, I remember her
and as long as she's away
I'll be consistently intoxicated
 
Some get drunk out of joy
and other out of sorrow
and I, out of my love
who is missing from my size
 

I'm a lost body

I am a lost body
a dissapaited substance
missing from my housee
and far from my home town
I'm tumbling downhill deeper everyday
 
For you, heartless woman I'm slowly dying
for you I became a lost body
 
Like the black night birds
I live in darkness
salvation for me no longer exists
My finalé will be pain
and catastrophe
 
For you, heartless woman I'm slowly dying
for you I became a lost body
 
Life's twigs whip me with no pity
but I don't pity my lost body
I'm just crying for* a mother, who I've made deeply bitter*
 
*with the connotation of feeling deep regret and sadness
**+ worried, having been made so upset with the result of weakness and helplessness
