    Όταν θα φύγεις θα μου σκοτώσεις ό,τι υπάρχει για να ζήσω
    και η καρδιά μου για ό,τι πρώτα τόσο αγαπούσε θα το μισήσει
    όταν θα φύγεις εγώ θα σβήσω, εγώ θα σβήσω

    Μα σαν γυρίσεις δε θα μου φτάνουν χιλιάδες δρόμοι για να τους τρέξω
    και όσες πίκρες μου έχεις δώσει ακόμα τόσες μπορώ ν' αντέξω
    όταν γυρίσεις πόση αγάπη θα μου χαρίσεις

    Όταν θα φύγεις κάθε μου μέρα θα γίνει μαύρη σαν το σκοτάδι
    κι όπου μ' αγγίξαν τα δάχτυλα σου πληγή θα γίνει κάθε σου χάδι
    όταν θα φύγεις θα μου αφήσεις βαθύ σημάδι


    When you'll leave you'll kill me everything which exist to life
    And my heart for whatever it loved once, it will hate
    When you'll leave, I'll expire, I'll expire

    But like you'll come back, a hundred streets won't be enough for me to run on them
    And all of the bitternesses, I'll still stand
    When you come back how much love will you give me

    When you'll leave me, every day will be black like the darkness
    And everywhere, where you're fingers touched me, will be a wound of your affectionateness
    When you'll leave, you'll give leave a deep sign

    I wanna apologize to kmmy for this post, since she did a good job!
    But since there's a much better translation in forum (created by tzina772000) for this classic,
    I assume that it would be proper to suggest this one also.

    Title: Otan
    Music:Nakis Petridis
    Lyrics and singing by Filippo Nikolaou
    LP: Otan (Philips 1971)
    Track no: 01

    Translated and transliterated by tzina772000 here -> http://www.allthelyrics.com/forum/gr...tml#post282214

    "Gilgamesh, where are you hurrying to?
    You will never find that life for which you are looking.
    When the gods created man they allotted to him death,
    but life they retained in their own keeping"
