White Dove

music by Manos Hadjidakis
verse by Nikos Gatsos


Άσπρο περιστέρι
/ Aspro peristeri
White Dove


Όποιος πόνεσε μέσα στη ζωή
/ opios ponese mesa sti zoi
who (ever) was "hurt" in "life"
όποιος έκλαψε σαν μικρό παιδί
/ opios eklapse san mikro pedi
who (ever) "cried" (just) like a "little child"
τώρα τίποτα πια δε σου ζητά
/ tora pia tipota de sou zita
no longer is "requesting" any thing from you
μόνο στ' όνειρο θα σ' αναζητά
/ mono st' oniro tha s' anazita
only in (a) dream, will be "seeking" you

Άσπρο περιστέρι μεσ' τη συννεφιά
/ aspro peristeri mes' ti sinnefia
white dove, (with)in the "overcast"
μου 'δωσες το χέρι να 'χω συντροφιά
/ mou 'doses to heri na 'xo sintrofia
you "offered" me (a, the) "hand", to have (as a) "companion"
άσπρο περιστέρι μαύρο μου φτερό
/ aspro peristeri, mavro mou ftero
white dove, black "feather" of mine
κάθε καλοκαίρι θα σε καρτερώ
/ kathe kalokeri tha se kartero
every summer, I will "anticipate" you

Όταν σήκωσα το βαρύ σταυρό
/ otan sikosa to vari stavro
when I "lifted" the "heavy cross"
μου παράγγειλες να 'ρθω να σε βρω
/ mou paragiles na 'rto na se vro
you "sent for" me to "come", to "find" you
κι όταν δάκρυσα σαν την Παναγιά
/ ki otan dakrisa san tin Panaya
and when I "cried" like the "All-Saintly" one
ήταν άνοιξη και Πρωτομαγιά
/ itan anixi ke Protomaya
it was spring and the "First of May"

Άσπρο περιστέρι μεσ' τη συννεφιά
/ aspro peristeri mes' ti sinnefia
white dove, (with)in the "overcast"
μου 'δωσες το χέρι να 'χω συντροφιά
/ mou 'doses to heri na 'xo sintrofia
you "offered" me (a, the) "hand", to have (as a) "companion"
άσπρο περιστέρι μαύρο μου φτερό
/ aspro peristeri, mavro mou ftero
white dove, black "feather" of mine
κάθε καλοκαίρι θα σε καρτερώ
/ kathe kalokeri tha se kartero
every summer, I will "anticipate" you
