Please translate Lyrics to Eleni

[an0513]

I love this song Eleni by Haris Alexiou, however I have no idea what she is saying. I would love it if someone could please translate. They lyrics are -

Zoume s’enan kosmo magiko
me fonto tin Akropoli, to Lykavitto
Gemata ta balkonia, politika aïdonia
Yposchesis ke agapes ke polychrona balonia
ki eftychismena chronia

Ki esy Eleni ke kathe Eleni
tis eparchias, tis Athinas kimomeni
I zoi sou, na to xeris, ine epikirygmeni
Na pethenis gia tin Ellada ine allo
ki allo ekini na se petheni

Ki esy Eleni ke kathe Eleni
tis eparchias, tis Athinas kimomeni

Zoume s’enan kosmo magiko
Ypochthonia doulevi me monadiko skopo
Na se basi sto pechnidi, ti zoi sou pos tha ftiaxi
Na sou taxi, na sou taxi tin psychi sou na rimaxi

Ki otan ftasi na elenchi tis elpidas sou ton pono
den tou ftani etouto mono
Me glykologa se perni ap’to cheri
Se vaftizi tis Elladas nikokyri

Ki eki pou les allaxane ta pragmata ke sikonis to potiri
Arpazi, klevi t’oniro sou ke tou kani charakiri

Ki esy Eleni...

Truly Grateful!!!

Eleni

We live in a magical world
with Acropolis and Lycabettus hill in the background
the balconies are full
of political nightingales,
promises and loves
and colourfull balloons
for happy years

And you, Eleni
and every other Eleni,
sleeping beauty
of the province and of Athens
Bear in mind that your life is outlawed
dying for Greece is one thing
and getting killed by it another

We live in a magical world
that infernally tries
