Parakalo, I need lyrics and translation of "Prwino tsigaro"

Here is a nice version of this song:

Πρωινό τσιγάρο

Χαράζει η μέρα και η πόλη έχει ρεπό
στη γειτονιά μας καπνίζει ένα φουγάρο
κι εγώ σε ζητάω σαν πρωινό τσιγάρο
και σαν καφέ πικρό και σαν καφέ πικρό

Άδειοι οι δρόμοι δε φάνηκε ψυχή
και το φεγγάρι μόλις χάθηκε στη Δύση
και γω σε γυρεύω σαν μοιραία λύση
και σαν Ανατολή και σαν Ανατολή

Βγήκε ο ήλιος το ράδιο διαπασών
μ' ένα χασάπικο που κλαίει για κάποιον Τάσο
κι εγώ σε ποντάρω κι ύστερα πάω πάσο
σ' ένα καρέ τυφλών σ' ένα καρέ τυφλών


Morning cigarette

The day breaks and the city is in repose.
In our neighboorhood a chimney is smoking,
and I want you, like a morning cigarette
and like bitter coffee, and like bitter coffee

The streets [are] empty, there is not a soul in sight,
and the moon has just sunk in the West,
and I am looking for you, like an inevitable solution
and like the sun rising, and like the sun rising.

The sun comes up, the radio is sounding off
with a chasapiko which cries for some Taso
And I, I make my bet with you, and afterwards, I pass,
on a hidden hand: four of a kind, four of a kind.

beautiful song

Euxaristw poli, y!

Hi Toni and Y!

This song is dedicated to Manos Loizos, a composer who died in early 80's. (So there's a fault info in the given link from youtube)

In 1985, 4 years after his death there was a big concert in the Olympic Stadium of Athens which attendance was more than 80.000!
From that concert was taken the first recording of the "Prwino Tsigaro" that sounds in your link Toni. The song is written by Alkis Alkaios (Lyrics) and Notis Mavroudis (music).

Here are the only 2 uploaded links from this concert:

As for the translation....
In the last two sentences goes like this:

κι εγώ σε ποντάρω κι ύστερα πάω πάσο
And I bet, with you as my stake, and afterwards, I pass,
σ' ένα καρέ τυφλό σ' ένα καρέ τυφλό
on a hidden hand: four of a kind, four of a kind.

Nice work Y!

oh well...no need to thank me..I found that translation
but I didn't know that song before I saw that 'video' ..really nice one..

Amethystos, 10th of June I will see in concert Haris Alexiou in my city, Barcelona, and she will sing songs of her Tribute to Manos Loizos...I hope that "prwoino tsigaro" will be one of them...
