1. It is Pyx Lax
2. It is a duet with Eleftheria Arvanitaki
3. It is from a CD single with Tsaknis and Maxairitsas
4. It is from his personal album (1rst one)

Great choices nevertheless.. I found this translation I keep in my computer from the old days (etsi panselinos?) so here it is,

========================

2. Exo ksexasei to onoma mou - Εχω ξεχασει το ονομα μου

GR

Οι νύχτες όλο πιο συχνά θα πλησιάζουνε
όταν εσύ θα περιμένεις να χαράξει
και το πρωί που οι πλατείες θα αδειάζουνε
δεν θα υπάρχει πια κανείς να σε κοιτάξει.

Είναι οι άνθρωποι μου έλεγες πουλιά
σαν χειμωνιάσει πάντα μακριά πετάνε
κι έρχονται ίσως να σε δουν κάποια βραδιά
άν έχουν σπάσει τα φτερά τους ή αν πεινάνε.

Τώρα που θέλω να γυρίσω
ξέρω κανέναν δεν θα βρω
έχεις αλλάξει το όνομά σου
και δεν υπάρχεις πια εδώ.

Εδώ οι μέρες μου περνούν με την βροχή
νύχτες ναυάγια στους δρόμους περπατάνε
θέλω να πω μα με τρομάζει η σιωπή
κι οι απουσίες από δίπλα μου περνάνε

Μην έρθει πάλι ο χειμώνας και χαθείς
και τα πανιά σου μην τα σκίσει ο αέρας
κι όπως φυσάει τα σημάδια δε θα βρεις
θα 'χουν σκορπίσει στα συντρίμμια κάποιας μέρας.

Τώρα που θέλεις να γυρίσεις
εγώ φοβάμαι να σε δω
έχω ξεχάσει τ' όνομά μου
και δεν υπάρχω πια εδώ.

The nights will come closer more often
When you will be waiting for the dawn
And in the morning, when the squares will be emptying
There wont be anyone to look at you anymore.
You used to tell me that humans are birds
When winter comes, they always fly away
And maybe they come to see you some nights
If their wings are broken or if they are hungry

Now that I want to come back
I know I wont find anyone
You have changed your name
And you don’t exist here anymore

Now that I want to come back
I know I wont find anyone
You have changed your name
And you don’t exist here anymore

Here my days pass with the rain
Nights like wrecks walk in the streets
I want to talk but silence scares me
And absences walk by next to me
(I don’t want) the winter to come again and you will disappear
(and I don’t want) your sails to be torn by the wind
And as it blows you wont find the signs
They will be scattered in the ruins of some day

Now that you want to come back
I am afraid to see you
I have forgotten my name
And I don’t exist here anymore

Now that you want to come back
I am afraid to see you
I have forgotten my name
And I don’t exist here anymore

Well Ypnos, I found them written like I said. I know Pliatsikas made part from Pyx Lax Great band indeed.
Thanks, awsome songs

Sosollikos this is the translation of “Olo m'afanis na s'afiso" that someone made for me here in this forum. Enjoy !!!

"OLO M'AFANIS NA S'AFISO"
"YOU KEEP LETTING ME LEAVE YOU"

Agapis fos, tis yis taxidia
Love's light, (is) (the) earth's travels
Mavra, paraxena pehnidia
black (dark), peculiar games
Sto fos tou iliou th' akoumpiso
on (the) light of the sun I will "lean on" (rest)
To kalokeri na miriso
(so as) the summer to smell
M' aspro pani tha taxidepso
with a white sail I will travel
Mikro koritsi tha se klepso
young girl (lass) I will "steal" you
O sagapao meno piso
as much (long as) I love, I "stay behind"
Ki olo m' afinis na s' afiso
and you keep letting me leave you
