Άνω-κάτω -Γιώργος Μαζωνάκης

ΝΑΙ!
Second part of the chorus:
Άνω-κάτω το μυαλό μου, Upside-down my mind
μια το βρίσκω, μια το χάνω. One time I find it, one time I lose it
Ξέχασα και τ’ όνομά μου- I forget even my name
σ’ ένα σου φιλί απάνω.- In your kiss above?????

As for the tenses in the first standza, I suppose all of them are in the past form, right?

So, to revise and correct what has been done so far:

Δίπλα σου δυο βήματα προχώρησα I took two steps towards you
κι από την αρχή σού παραχώρησα- And from the start I granted to you
πάνω στην καρδιά μου εξουσία.- rules upon my heart
Ξέχασα παλιότερα βιώματα, I forgot older life’s experiences
σου ’δωσα μεγάλα δικαιώματα Gave you enormous (amount of) rights
και ανυπολόγιστη αξία And un-measurable value
και ανυπολόγιστη αξία. And un-measurable value

Άνω-κάτω τη ζωή μου
UPSIDE-DOWN MY LIFE
όταν θες εσύ την κάνεις.
WHENEVER YOU WANT, YOU MAKE (=> MY LIFE UPSIDE-DOWN)
Εύκολο για σένα είναι -
IT "COMES" EASY TO YOU
άμα θες να με τρελάνεις.
WHEN YOU WANT IT, TO DRIVE ME CRAZY

Second part of the chorus:

Άνω-κάτω το μυαλό μου, Upside-down my mind
TOPSY-TURVY (THIS) MIND OF MINE
μια το βρίσκω, μια το χάνω. One time I find it, one time I lose it
ONCE LOST, ONCE FOUND
Ξέχασα και τ’ όνομά μου- I forget even my name
I FORGOT (EVEN) MY (OWN) NAME
σ’ ένα σου φιλί απάνω.- In your kiss above?????
OVER A KISS OF YOURS


.

So, to revise and correct what has been done so far:

Δίπλα σου δυο βήματα προχώρησα I took two steps towards you
κι από την αρχή σού παραχώρησα- And from the start I granted to you
πάνω στην καρδιά μου εξουσία.- rules upon my heart
OVER MY HEART, POWER (RULING)
Ξέχασα παλιότερα βιώματα, I forgot older life’s experiences
σου ’δωσα μεγάλα δικαιώματα Gave you enormous (amount of) rights
και ανυπολόγιστη αξία And un-measurable value

And the last standza:

Δίπλα σου δυο βήματα προχώρησα I took two steps towards you
και τον εαυτό μου ξαναγνώρισα, And I knew it again myself
από την αρχή όλα τα πήρα.From the begining I took all(I started all over again?!)
Γύρισαν ανάποδα τα πράγματα Things turned "anapoda"
κι όλα τα παλιά μου συμπεράσματα, and all my old conclusions
άλλαξα για σένα χαρακτήρα I changed for your character????????
άλλαξα για σένα χαρακτήρα.

Excuse my "delay" ... ... ... ...


My mother came over to "present" me with "my own jar of olive - oil" ... !!! ... for my "new place of residence" ... ... ...

"Olive - oil" ... BIG "thing" over here ... ...

And we are "fortunate" to still be "having our own produce" of it ... my family, I mean ... !!! ... ...

.

No problem! If you don't have time now, we can continue later. I'll be having guests in like about an hour or so, too.

As for olive oil- I envy you for that. And for many others we don't have..

And the last standza:

Δίπλα σου δυο βήματα προχώρησα I took two steps towards you
BY YOUR SIDE, I TOOK TWO STEPS FORWARD
και τον εαυτό μου ξαναγνώρισα, And I knew it again myself
AND MYSELF I RE-ACQUAINTED
από την αρχή όλα τα πήρα.From the begining I took all(I started all over again?!)
I COMMENCED ANEW
Γύρισαν ανάποδα τα πράγματα Things turned "anapoda"
"THINGS" TURNED UPSIDE-DOWN
κι όλα τα παλιά μου συμπεράσματα, and all my old conclusions
AND ALL (OF) MY OLD DEDUCTIONS
άλλαξα για σένα χαρακτήρα I changed for your character????????
I CHANGED, FOR YOU, (MY) CHARACTER
άλλαξα για σένα χαρακτήρα
I CHANGED, FOR YOU, (MY) CHARACTER

Ευχαριστώ!!!!!I lost 1 kilo because of this song!! Which from all the 44 I weigh, means a lot!!! LOL!!!
I could never have managed to translate the song without your help. Thank you for your patience and time and skills and EVERYTHING!!!! No more translations for today. I have to recover from this one!!!!

But I learned a lot from it, so, it was useful in the end!

Thank you again!!!

And for eternity the song entirely and correctly translated:


Δίπλα σου δυο βήματα προχώρησα By your side I took two steps forward
κι από την αρχή σού παραχώρησα- And from the start I granted to you
πάνω στην καρδιά μου εξουσία.- Over my heart, power (ruling)
Ξέχασα παλιότερα βιώματα, I forgot older life’s experiences
σου ’δωσα μεγάλα δικαιώματα Gave you enormous (amount of) rights
και ανυπολόγιστη αξία And un-measurable value
και ανυπολόγιστη αξία. And un-measurable value
