mono gia sena and greek words in english font
efgarstis
Σβήσε το φως κι ασ' τη σιωπή να μιλά
svise to fos ki as'ti siopi na mila
extinguish the light and let the silence speak
είναι στιγμές που λέν' τα μάτια πολλά.
einai stigmes pou len'ta matia polla
these are moments, when your eyes say a lot
Η μοναξιά δεν ήταν φίλη καλή
i monaksia den itan fili kali
the loneliness is no good friend
δεν είχα όνειρα, ώσπου σε γνώρισα και ζω απ' την αρχή.
den eicha onira ospou se gnorisa kai zo ap'tin archi
I didn't have a dream until I met you and began to live again
Μόνο για σένα κάνω όνειρα ξανά
mono gia sena kano onira ksana
Only for you I dream again
μόνο για σένα διαγράφω τα παλιά.
mono gia sena diagrapso ta palia
only for you I erase the past
Έδωσες χρώμα σε μια ασπρόμαυρη ζωή
edoses chtroma se mia aspromafro zoi
you put color to my black and white life
νιώθω πως όλα θα τ' αλλάξουμε μαζί.
niotho pos ola tha t'allaksoume mazi
I feel , how we will change everything together
Θα σ' αγαπώ, όσο θα ζω
tha s'agapo, oso tha zo
I shall love you as long as I live
τη ζωή μου δίνω, πλάι σου να μείνω.
ti zoi mou dino, plai sou na meinw
what a life you gave me, beside you I want to stay
Πόσες βραδιές είχα σε μένα κλειστεί
poses vradies eicha se mena klistei
How many evenings have I closed myself
πότο, τσιγάρο, η παρέα γνωστή.
poto, zigaro, i parea gnosti
drink, cigar and familiar company
Ήρθες εσύ σαν ήλιος στη συννεφιά
irthes esy san ilios sti sinnefia
you appeared like sun out of the clouds
και με ανάστησες, ζωή μου χάρισες στα πρώτα σου φιλιά.
kai me anastises, zoi mou charises sta prota sou filia
you revive me, with your first kisses you gave me my life(as a gift. Freely translated)
Μόνο για σένα κάνω όνειρα ξανά
mono gia sena kano onira ksana
Only for you I dream again
μόνο για σένα διαγράφω τα παλιά.
mono gia sena diagrapso ta palia
only for you I erase the past
Έδωσες χρώμα σε μια ασπρόμαυρη ζωή
edoses chroma se mia aspromafro zoi
you put color to my black and white life
νιώθω πως όλα θα τ' αλλάξουμε μαζί.
niotho pos ola tha t'allaksoume mazi
I feel , how we will change everything together
Θα σ' αγαπώ, όσο θα ζω
tha s'agapo, oso tha zo
I shall love you as long as I live
τη ζωή μου δίνω, πλάι σου να μείνω.
ti zoi mou dino, plai sou na meinw
what a life you gave me, beside you I want to stay

Άνθρωποι τύχης είδωλον επλάσαντο, πρόφασιν ιδίης αβουλίης.

Your translation was very good
Άνθρωποι τύχης είδωλον επλάσαντο, πρόφασιν ιδίης αβουλίης.

Then we are waiting you![]()

I'm always grateful, if I can learn something....
These corrections I made were minor. You got the meaning of the song and that makes me so happy![]()
Άνθρωποι τύχης είδωλον επλάσαντο, πρόφασιν ιδίης αβουλίης.
~Δημόκριτος~
..because it was quite a long years work, to learn your beautiful language enough to understand most of the songs...because I just love the music...axxx
Ηehe, you're right. Greek language is so good. If you don't say good words about you house then it will fall down and it will bury you underHehe a greek proverb.
