music by Manos Hadjidakis (inspired by a piece from Mozart)
verse by Nikos Gatsos
Χασάπικο 40
Ήλιε μου ήλιε μου βασιλιά μου
μη μ' αφήνεις σήμερα
συννεφιά συννεφιά στην καρδιά μου
στο κορμί μου σίδερα
Αγόρι ματωμένο θεριά σε ζώσανε
χαράματα σε πήραν και σε σταυρώσανε
Ήλιε μου ήλιε μου βασιλιά μου
πες μου τι μου ζήλεψες
φώτισες μια στιγμή την καρδιά μου
κι ύστερα βασίλεψες
Αγόρι ματωμένο θεριά σε ζώσανε
χαράματα σε πήραν και σε σταυρώσανε

Χασάπικο 40
/ Hasapiko 40
Have to admit I am not "knowledgeable" (... as yet !!!), ... to the "origin" of "the reason why", this particular "type" of "traditional Greek dance", known aS "Hasapiko", ... is actually literally translated to "buthcher's", ... or as an "adjective" to be "relating to a buther's" ... !!! ... !!! ... !!! ......
I KNOW !!! ... the "(WHA-)funny" thing is that, I have never "realised" it before ... !!!!!!!!!!!! ... You see ?!? ... this "forum" allows for all sorts of "lessons" to be had !!! ...... ... I am EXTREMELY "intrigued" to find out about this now ... so, I promise, as soon as I am able to "elucidate" on the "buther's subject", will do so ...
... !!! ... ... ...
Ήλιε μου ήλιε μου βασιλιά μου
/ ilie mou, ilie mou, vasilia mou
sun, sun, king of mine
μη μ' αφήνεις σήμερα
/ mi m' afinis simera
do not "leave" me today
συννεφιά συννεφιά στην καρδιά μου
/ sinefia, sinefia stin kardia mou
(it's) cloudy in my heart
στο κορμί μου σίδερα
/ sto kormi mou sidera
(there are) iron (chains) to my body
Αγόρι ματωμένο θεριά σε ζώσανε
/ agori matomeno, theria se zosane
"bloody" (dripping in blood) boy, wild beasts have gotten hold of you
χαράματα σε πήραν και σε σταυρώσανε
/ haramata se piran ke se stavrosane
(at) day break they "collected" you and crusified you
Ήλιε μου ήλιε μου βασιλιά μου
/ ilie mou, ilie mou, vasilia mou
sun, sun, king of mine
πες μου τι μου ζήλεψες
/ pes mou ti mou zilepses
tell me, what are you jealous of me for ?
φώτισες μια στιγμή την καρδιά μου
/ fotises mia stigmi tin kardia mou
you "lit-up", for just one moment, my heart
κι ύστερα βασίλεψες
/ ki istera vasilepses
and then, you "set" (went down, sunset)
Αγόρι ματωμένο θεριά σε ζώσανε
/ agori matomeno, theria se zosane
"bloody" (dripping in blood) boy, wild beasts have gotten hold of you
χαράματα σε πήραν και σε σταυρώσανε
/ haramata se piran ke se stavrosane
(at) day break they "collected" you and crusified you

I still haven't finished eating! LOL! I wonder when I'll explode, cause most certainly that will be the next step in my "evolution" !!!!
As for "age-wise", allow me to take a bow!!! Show respect to the...elders, συγνομι, age-wise ones, that's what my parents taught me!!! LOL!!! -
... LOL LOL .. You know, ... the "age-wise", was NOT refered to as "the aged that are wise" ... BUT, "in regard to age" ...
For example, ... "I don't think we are going to be able to go to the supermarket aswell, cause "time wise" we are late as it is !!! ... "
You see ?!? ...
