zilevo- giorgos mazonakis

[dya]

Please, can you help me with the lyrics of this song: Zilevo played by Giorgos Mazonakis? I'm interested in the english translation first. I'd like to see the lyryis in greek, also (but not with the greek alphabet), but first, I want to understand what he says!!
Thank you very much!

Πάει πάλι πέντε, παρά πέντε
Pai pali pende,para pende
ργησες καρδιά μου, στην υγειά μου
rgises kardia mu,stin igia mu
Ξέσπασα
sespasa
Πήγε πλέον έξι, ποιός ν αντέξει
pige pleon eksi,poios n anteksi
κι έχω γίνει χάλια και μπουκάλια
ki exo gini xalia ki boikalia
έσπασα
espasa

Ζηλεύω, ζηλεύω
Zilevo,zilevo
εσένα π' αγαπάω και λατρεύω, ζηλεύω
esena p'agapao ke latrevo,zilevo
Μου λείπεις και τα σπάω και χορεύω, ζηλεύω
mu lipis ke ta spao ke xorevo,zilevo
Γιατί ακόμα θέλω ν' αγαπώ
giati akoma telo n'agapo
Ζηλεύω, ζηλεύω
zilevo,zilevo
εσένα π' αγαπάω και λατρεύω, ζηλεύω
esena p'agapao ke latrevo,zilevo
Μου λείπεις και τα σπάω και χορεύω, ζηλεύω
mu lipis ke ta spao ke horevo,zilevo
Γιατί κοντά σου έτσι μόνο ζω
giati konda su etsi mono zo

Έχει γίνει μέρα, φεύγω σφαίρα
exi gini mera,fevgo sfera
Φεύγω απ' το σπίτι, κι ας μου λείπει
fevgo ap' to spiti,ki as mu lipi
Χάθηκα
xatika
Πήρα τα κλειδιά μου, την καρδιά μου
pira ta klidia mu,tin kardia mu
Είπα να ξεφύγω, πριν να φύγω
ipa na ksefgo,prin na figo
Στάθηκα
statika

At least now, i can pretend to mumble the words while listening! Thank you again!
And if someone, please, has the time to provide me with the translation, i'd be very grateful!

Lilian, SAGAPO!!!!!!!
I didn't expect you to be on-line now, and I could only hope that you'll see my message and you'll help me with Zilevo, someday!
Funny thing: while listening the song, and not understanding any word but zilevo(which I found in a dictionary) I had the feeling that there is something about love and drinking and madness and sadness because of love. I had this strong impression that the singer has the voice of an upset, maybe drunk, tired, upset, sad man.... Now, when reading your translation, line by line, I kept telling myself: yes, that's exactly what I expected him to say!...Your translation came as a confirmation of my guessing. Strange.... Maybe Greek language together with Greek music have a way of transmitting certain messages beyond the literal understanding of the words.
Efharisto!!!!!

Later edit: does this song, Zilevo, have a video?

[_Lillian_]

I bookmarked the site, so as not to miss it!

I think that this

Maybe Greek language together with Greek music have a way of transmitting certain messages beyond the literal understanding of the words.

is irrelevant to greek music and lyrics. It has to do with the singer and how he performs. If he feels it, the message will be understood by the audience, even if they don't understand the language. I myself shudder when listening to a song called "O Pastor", by Madredeus, but I have no idea what the lyrics say! I think it's portugese.
Anyway, I got off-topic! Have fun with Zilevo!

I think there is a video of the song, where Mazonakis sings live at a night-club.
But I don't have it and I don't know where you could find it.. sorry!

[dya]

I agree it has to do with the singer first! If he is not convincing, the song is doomed. But there is something about this kind of greek music, that gives you the impression of getting the main idea without understanding the words. I think it's about creating certain sensations for the one listening.

Thanks for the info, i'll keep searching for the video
