Wonderful song, enjoy it

Εδώ να μείνεις
Stay here

Εδώ να μείνεις
Stay here
Να με κρατήσεις αγκαλιά, να μ' ανακρίνεις
to hold me in your arms, to interrogate me
Της καληνύχτας τα φιλιά τι μου τα δίνεις
why do you give to me the kisses of goodnight?
δεν φεύγω απόψε κι από τ' αμάξι δεν θα βγω
I'm not leaving tonight and i won't come out of the car
κι αν έχεις τίποτα μαζί μου να συγκρίνεις
and if you have something to compare with me
εδώ να μείνεις να το μάθουμε κι οι δυο
stay here in order to learn it both

Εδώ να μείνεις, εδώ να μείνεις
Stay here, stay here
της καληνύχτας τα φιλιά τι μου τα δίνεις
why do you give to me the kisses of goodnight?

Εδώ και τώρα
Right here and now
γιατί είν' ο δρόμος μας παλιός και κατηφόρα
cause our way is old and a descent
της καληνύχτας τα φιλιά δεν είναι δώρα
the kisses of goodnight aren't present
δεν φεύγω απόψε κι απ' τη ζωή σου δε θα βγω
i'm not leaving tonight and i won't go out of your life
κι αν είναι σχέση μας μισή, τα λόγια φόρα
and if our relationship is half, the words (are) run up
εδώ και τώρα στης αγάπης το θυμό
right here and now in love's anger

Εδώ να μείνεις, εδώ να μείνεις
Stay here, stay here
της καληνύχτας τα φιλιά τι μου τα δίνεις
why do you give to me the kisses of goodnight?

Only a thing: Title's song is "Tis kalinixtas ta filia" not "Edo na meneis" (this is only how it starts, but in youtube sometimes appears in this way).


I heard this song live in Athens Rex Theatre...woaw...

της καληνύχτας τα φιλιά δεν είναι δώρα
the kisses of goodnight aren't present


I've just listened to this lovely song again and I think that in this context 'δώρα' would probably mean 'gifts' ( or presents ).

Let me know if you agree

Hahah I know what δώρα means! Yes it's gifts and presents and probably i mistyped, I wanted to write presents... Thanks fro your notice.

Thanks Maria, I thought it was a mistake.

I must say that I am learning so much from reading your posts and can't believe how helpful you all are

μου αρέσει πάρα πολύ. thank you Maria_gr

i loooove this song

Eleftheria Arvanitaki sings Tis kalinihtas ta filia, a Greek song which translates to “The goodnight kisses”. It is a lovely love song, written by Lina Nikolakopoulou and composed by Christos Nikolopoulos.

The song Tis kalinihtas ta filia i......s a song for lovers who try to find a balance, to try to avoid the end. The goodnight kisses can never solve a problem in a relationship. They are solved talking, finding out the truth. Leaving a problem behind is never the solution. Couples who love each other try to work it out, claiming each other.

It’s here you must stay, sings Eleftheria, in a demanding and absolute way. The only way people can find a solution to their problems – even if they break up in the end, this way truth can at least set them free to choose what they want.

The song Tis kalinihtas ta filia was one of the songs in the album “Meno Ektos”, one of the best selling albums in Greek music history, which made Arvanitaki one of the most beloved singers in Greece.
