Ζω ή δε ζω
Am I living or not
ούτε που ξέρω,
I don't even know
μόνο υποφέρω κι επιζώ
I just suffer and survive
Μια σε μισώ,
One time I hate you,
μια σ'αγαπάω
the other I love you
και σε ρωτάω
and I'm asking you
Ζω ή δε ζω..
Am I living or not...
Ο άλλος μου εαυτός,
This other "self" of mine
αυτός μονάχα αυτός
this one, only this
με τυραννάει
tyrannizes me
Ο άλλος μου εαυτός,
This other "self" of mine
σαν ύπουλος εχθρός με πολεμάει...
fights me, as a sneaky enemy would...
Δεν είμαι εγώ,
I'm not myself,
είμαι ένας άλλος
I'm another one
ψεύτης μεγάλος
a great lier
κι όλο γελώ
and I always laugh
Δεν είμαι εγώ,
I'm not myself,
δεν αναπνέω,
I don't (even) breath
ό,τι κι αν λέω ...
whatever I say ....
Δεν είμαι εγώ.
this one isn't, me myself
"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"
