Kalimera, ti kanis !

Well i hope that i learne good my 1st lesson in Greek language, but please ligo ligo with me, need mor time to understand som word agin. whatever, belive me, lestning to a beautiful song help to much to learn.

Well thank you again and agin as i say it will be not enough for my dear Maria gr. Really i was pleasant surprised when I have read the tradiction which you made very very good.
Finally it is a philosophical and humain song !!!! Belive me my dear that what i feel each time i listen to it, i feel that Alexiou, throught her melodieuse voice according with the beauty music, talk with the soul, with the spirit, so whay this song move all in the bottom of my thinking. Thank you very much Dear Maria gr

by the way, yes it is thrue, as i tould you, the song of Asnavour is very beautiful if singing in french, but not in englishe, as charles Aznavour havent a good english, so whay i traied to translat it in englishe (of cours my english is not so good as your my dear, but belive me i made as much as I could to get the song understood, therefore if it is a bad tradiction, I wish that you will agree all my excuse).
