    Default Glykeria and Omar Farouk

    Hello,

    I searched without success on Google the lyrics of a song in Greek talking about greek and turkish friendship. I'm turkish but born in Greece, 55 years old and I'll be very happy to have a translation in french or english of this song
    Γλυκερία - Μες στου Βοσπόρου τα στενά
    You can view the video here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PdqoQ...&feature=share

    I hope you'll agree my demand.

    Thanks

    Adnan

    Μες του Βοσπόρου τα στενά
    ο Γιάννης κλαίει τα δειλινά
    και ο μεμέτης πλάι του
    πίνει και τραγουδάει του

    Τούρκος εγώ κι εσύ Ρωμιός
    κι εγώ λαός κι εσύ λαός
    εσύ Χριστό κι εγώ Αλλάχ
    όμως κι οι δυο μας αχ και βαχ

    Με λίγη αγάπη και κρασί
    μεθάω κι εγώ μεθάς κι εσύ
    πιες λίγο από το τάσι μου
    αδέρφι και καρντάσι μου

    Τούρκος εγώ κι εσύ Ρωμιός
    κι εγώ λαός κι εσύ λαός
    εσύ Χριστό κι εγώ Αλλάχ
    όμως κι οι δυο μας αχ και βαχ
    Ρεμπέτικο για πάντα. Μάγκες είμαστε.

    Oh thanks, very quick ;-)
    But google translation is not good, so I'm still searching a "human translation" because I'm sure this song is very beautiful

    Hi, your Youtube link is invalid.

    This is the message that I get:

    "The URL contained a malformed video ID.
    Sorry about that."

    I put the Greek lyrics up for you, and another member will translate it for you in due course.

    Hi, sorry for my bad link, here is the good one http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature...&v=PdqoQYpnwrc
    I'm not tired too listen it :-) Very good singer. Also in the same tv show I discovered Areti Ketime.
    I am full of nostalgy listening greek or turkish songs. I left the region in 1964, long time.

    ps: rich idea I had when registering in this forum :-)

    Translation taken from Stixoi.info

    In the alleys by the Bosporus
    Giannis is weeping when the sun sets
    and Mehmet, next to him,
    is drinking and singing to him:

    I am a Turk and you are a Greek
    I am a people and you are a people
    you've got Christ and I've got Allah
    but both you and I have sighs and tears

    With a little love and a little wine
    I get drunk and you get drunk too
    Have a drink now from my cup
    my dear aderfos, my dear kardasi *

    I am a Turk and you are a Greek
    I am a people and you are a people
    you've got Christ and I've got Allah
    but both you and I have sighs and tears


    *brother", in Greek and Turkish respectively

    Ho, you all great. This translation sounds pretty good not like google at all. I see here the subject of this song is real :-)
    Full friendship between us, I like it.
    Thanks a lot.
