    Talking Of course it's NOT mazonakis........

    This song is talking about the feelings of a karsilama's dancer

    Music: Miki Theodorakis
    Lyrics: Michali Ganas
    Sung by Vassili Lekkas
    CD: Asikiko Poulaki (AKTI 1996)
    Track no: 02




    Χάρτινος ο κόσμος, ψεύτικος ντουνιάς,
    A world of paper, a phony world,
    μόνο το τραγούδι ξέρει πού πονάς,
    song is the only thing that knows where you're hurting,
    μόνο στο ρυθμό του είναι νόμιμο
    only in it's rhythm is legal
    τ' ανυπότακτο που κρύβω και το φρόνιμο
    the feeling of rebel that I hide, and also the submissive one

    Βήμα κι άλλο βήμα, βήματα παλιά,
    *******
    Step by step, old steps
    ο χορός ανοίγει σαν την αγκαλιά,
    dance is opening like a hug

    κοίτα με στα μάτια, πάτα όπου πατώ
    You should look me in the eyes, and step wherever I do
    κράτα με καλά απόψε μην αναληφθώ
    you should hold me well this night, so I won't get my ascension

    Πότε σαν πουλάκι, πότε στα δεσμά,
    Sometimes (free) as a little bird, sometimes with bonds
    όλη η ζωή μου ένα ξάφνιασμα,
    my whole life, a surprise,
    νιώθω πιο δικό μου ό,τι έχασα
    the thing that I feel I own most, is the one I lost
    κι όσα έχω δε μου κάνουν και τα ξέχασα
    and the things I possess, I don't like em and I forgot em


    ******** Notice: The phrase "step by step" refers to the dance steps
    while the "old steps" to the dancer's life

    "Gilgamesh, where are you hurrying to?
    You will never find that life for which you are looking.
    When the gods created man they allotted to him death,
    but life they retained in their own keeping"
