lyrics

(English translation below)
Τ’ ακάμωτα
Μουσική / Στίχοι / Κύρια φωνή: Αντώνης Αντωνίου

Σίλια καντούνια, σίλια κουδούνια, κούντα ποτζεί τζαι τράβα ποδά
Πού θα δικλίσεις, πού ’ννά τραβήσεις, πε την κουβένταν σου τωρά

Έσιει μαστόρους τζαι παρκαδόρους, θέσην σου βάλλουν που μιας αρκής
Έσιει τζ’ υφάντρες, δήννουν τζαι σφίγγουν, που τον ιστόν τους εν θεννά φκεις

Τούτον εν άλλου, έννεν δικόν σου, εν του παπάκη τζαι της μαμμάς
Δώσ’ τους πουρλόττον, κλώσ’ που την άλλην, μες στα χωράφκια τ’ ακάμωτα
Βάλε φωθκιάτσαν, κότσινην, μαύρην, δε με τα μμάθκια τ’ ανόθευτα

Σ’ ούλλα τα θέλω, σ’ ούλλα που ξέρω, έναν αρφάλιν τρέφει ψατζήν
Κρούζει την μιαν τζαι κρούζει την άλλην, τρώει την πέτραν, πλάθει μορφήν
Το παραμύθιν εν το παιχνίδιν, θέλει παιξίμιν ως την αυκήν
Κόψε καντούνιν, έβρε τραούδιν τζαι πε το ούλλον που την αρκήν

==============================
Fallow fields
Music / Lyrics / Main voice: Antonis Antoniou

A thousand bends, a thousand bells, push here, pull there
Where will you gaze, where will you head, say what you want now
There are masters and parking boys,they assign you to a place from the start There are also weavers weaving tight, who’ll trap you with their lace

This is not yours, it’s someone else’s, it’s daddy’s and mummy’s
Set them ablaze, turn to the other side, towards fields that lie fallow
Light a huge fire, red, black, look with unsullied eyes

In all I want, in all I know, poison is fed through an umbilical cord
It burns the one and then burns the other, it erodes the stone, it shapes a figure
In the tale lies the whole game, it must be played till dawn
Turn the bend, find a song and sing it from the top
