Default Έρωτά μου- Γιώργος Μαζωνάκης

Καλησπέρα!!!!
Around here, we have a saying: the way you start the year, that way you'll carry on through it!

Now, here, I start it as I finished the last one: struggling with Mazonakis!!! Is there SOMEONE(all capital letters!!!!) who may wish to join me? Παρακαλώ!!!!

Ευχαριστώ!!!


Έρωτά μου- My lover
Κοντεύουν ξημερώματα _ The daybreak is coming
κι ο ύπνος δεν με πιάνει.- And the sleep doesn’t catch me
Αλλάζει η νύχτα χρώματα- The colours of night change
κι ο έρωτας ονόματα.- And the names of passion
Θε μου, θα με τρελάνει.- My God, it will drive me crazy

Έρωτά μου, πες μου κάτι, My lover, tell me something
δεν μπορώ να κλείσω μάτι,- I can’t close the eye( Ok, I know exactly what it means but there is no English correspondent for the expression)
καίγομαι και ξενυχτώ. I burn and I stay up all night long! (HA! I AM learning!!!)
Έρωτά μου, πες μου κάτι, My lover, tell me something
δεν μπορώ να κλείσω μάτι, I can’t close the eye
πάω να τρελαθώ. – I’m going crazy

Σου στέλνω τόσα σήματα,I send you so many signals
δεν ξέρω τι συμβαίνει. I don’t know what happens
Χιλιάδες γύρω σχήματα,- Thousands of shapes around
του έρωτα σκιρτήματα- The thrills of passion
που με πεθαίνει.- Which kills me

Έρωτά μου- My lover
Pasion of mine
Κοντεύουν ξημερώματα _ The daybreak is coming
Daybreak is nearing
κι ο ύπνος δεν με πιάνει.- And the sleep doesn’t catch me
and cannot get any sleep
Αλλάζει η νύχτα χρώματα- The colours of night change
alter the colours of night
κι ο έρωτας ονόματα.- And the names of passion
and pasion, (its) names
Θε μου, θα με τρελάνει.- My God, it will drive me crazy
my god, it will drive me crazy

Έρωτά μου, πες μου κάτι, My lover, tell me something
Passion of mine, say something (to me)
δεν μπορώ να κλείσω μάτι,- I can’t close the eye( Ok, I know exactly what it means but there is no English correspondent for the expression)
cannot "shut an eyelid"
καίγομαι και ξενυχτώ. I burn and I stay up all night long! (HA! I AM learning!!!)
Έρωτά μου, πες μου κάτι, My lover, tell me something
δεν μπορώ να κλείσω μάτι, I can’t close the eye
πάω να τρελαθώ. – I’m going crazy

Σου στέλνω τόσα σήματα,I send you so many signals
δεν ξέρω τι συμβαίνει. I don’t know what happens
do not know what is happening
Χιλιάδες γύρω σχήματα,- Thousands of shapes around
του έρωτα σκιρτήματα- The thrills of passion
που με πεθαίνει.- Which kills me
that kill me


re, dya mou, re ... I REALLY DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY YOU KEEP COMING TO CLASS !!! ... ... You have already "graduated" ... !!! ... !!! ... with "Mazonakis" ... (instead of "with Honours" !!! hahahahahahaha ... !!!)


As you can see, ... I am merely "improving" the ... "poetic lisence" (that has "expired" in songs like these, anyway ... ... LOL LOL LOL ...), ... you ARE NOT required any more "exams" !!! ... !!! ... !!! ...

What's wrong with the songs? They help me a lot by having "friendly" vocabulary. What do you want me to translate? The Iliad and the Odyssey?!?! Come on! And who would recite those for me, anyway? Remember? Goooood pronounciation!!!LOL!!!

I'm glad you still find resourses for pleasure. You must have something masochistic inside you!! LOL

As I'm sadistic, I do have one question LOL!! :

"Χιλιάδες γύρω σχήματα,- Thousands of shapes around
του έρωτα σκιρτήματα- The thrills of passion
που με πεθαίνει.- Which kills me
that kill me "

Who does kill refer to? To σκιρτήματα? So the verb it's in 3rd plural not singular(I know they look the same) but how was I supposed to realise he meant the σκιρτήματα and not the έρωτα ?

The "Greeks" have this "phrase" ... "να σε πιω στο ποτήρι" ... ... ...

... I guess, the best way to "describe" THIS is, ... "... to like someone so much, ... to feel they are like 'refreshing water' quenching thirst, ... like 'beautiful wine' to 'taste' ..." ... ... ...

The "phrase" you inquire about would "say" ...

"... drink me up, kiss by kiss ..." ... ... ... "consume me, kiss by kiss" ... ... ...


Would that "satisfy" you ?!? ... your inquiry, I mean !!! ... LOL
