Hi Lalisia,
if you read the comments underneath this youtube-video, you will find sóme explanation to the lyrics:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lW4oxW4bQ5E
Enjoy it Tahira
Θα σπάσω κούπες για τα λόγια που 'πες
και ποτηράκια για τα πικρά λογάκια
αμάν άμαν, πια μικρό μην κλαις
αμάν άμαν, κι έχεις ό,τι θες
Σπάω τα πιάτα για τα δυο σου
μαύρα μάτια
Εψές το βράδυ είδα στ' όνειρό μου
πως είχες τα μαλλάκια σου ριγμένα στο λαιμό μου
αμάν άμαν, πια μικρό μην κλαις
αμάν άμαν, κι έχεις ό,τι θες
Σπάω τα πιάτα για τα δυο σου
μαύρα μάτια
Thank you both!!
Catherini since I am far away from reading Greek letters ), maybe u have these lyrics on Latin script, please!
Lyrics in latin script and a quick translation for you.
Tha spaso kupes
Tha spaso kupes gia ta logia pu pes
ke potirakia gia ta pikra logakia
aman aman, pia mikro min kles
aman aman, ki ehis o,ti thes
Spao ta piata gia ta dio su
mavra matia
Epses to vradi ida st' oniro mu
pos ihes ta mallakia su rigmena sto lemo mu
aman aman, pia mikro min kles
aman aman, ki ehis o,ti thes
Spao ta piata gia ta dio su
mavra matia
*****************************
I'll bust cups
I'll bust cups cause of the words you said
and glasses cause of the bitter words
aman aman, don't cry anymore my little girl
aman aman and you have what you want
I bust the plates over your two
black eyes
Yesterday at night I saw in my dream
that your hair was surrounding your neck
aman aman, don't cry anymore my little girl
aman aman and you have what you want
I bust the plates over your two
black eyes
Άνθρωποι τύχης είδωλον επλάσαντο, πρόφασιν ιδίης αβουλίης.
~Δημόκριτος~
One of my fave. rebetika songs.
The refrain "aman aman, pia mikro min kles
aman aman, ki ehis o,ti thes" part must have been added later.
Originally it is in Turkish and goes like this:
Aman aman yanıyorum ben/ Aman Aman I am burning
Aman aman seviyorum sen(i)/ Aman aman I love you
Ah ahh ahh ahh Tsifteleli (iki telli = double sting) aman aman yalelli (or sth like that...this yal elli is Arabic)
Here Sofia Papazoglu sings it well. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r9T01jSExg0
And of course Eleftheria Arvanitaki

The version Shantel has in his last CD (Koupes) is sung by Canadian folk singer "Brenna MacCrimmon".
The intro goes:
Ne de güzel kulakların var/ How beautiful ears you have
Altın küpe ister Osman Aga/ Osman Aga wants golden earrings (dunno who Osman Aga is lol)
