about

This is a love song about a very beautiful dark girl from Morfou. A married man falls in love with a married woman from Morfou, a small town in Cyprus. A sensitive and risky situation back in the old days in Cyprus, but nowadays as well!
The man says that he will get rid of his previous love because he is so excited about the Morfou girl and he expresses his love in a humorous way: he says that he lost his mind as soon as he saw her breasts! Hearing songs about breasts must have been a very shocking experience for the listeners of that time.

lyrics

Τον τοίχον τον παλιότοιχον τζι΄εννα τον ασπρογιάσω, τζαι την αγάπην την παλιάν εννα την πολογιάσω, όφφου όφφου ρα μουζουρού του Μόρφου, τζ΄εκαμες με τζαι πέλλανα για θκιο βυζιά του κόρφου

Τζ΄εκαμες με τζαι πέλλανα τζ΄ακόμα εννα πελλάνω, ώσπου θωρώ τες βούτσιες σου τζ΄εν τα φιλιά μου πάνω, έλα, έλα μαζί μου παίξε γέλα, τζ’ έχω αγκάλες ανοιχτές τζι όποτε θέλεις έλα

Ανάθεμαν τον π΄αγαπά γεναίκαν με τον άντραν, τζ΄εν αγαπά μιαν κορασιάν που να την εσιει πάντα, όφφου όφφου....

Τζι’ αγάπουν την τζ΄αγάπαν με κανείς εντζαι ξερέν το, τζαι που τον νου μας τον πελλόν ο κόσμος έμαθεν το, όφου όφφου

Αγάπησα να ΄χω ζωήν μα γιω ζωήν εν έχω, σαν κλίμαν με κλαεύκουσιν τζαι κλάεμμαν δεν έχω, έλα έλα ....
