lyrics

(english translation follows)
Η Βαλίτσα
Μουσική και στίχοι: Αντώνης Αντωνίου, Κύρια φωνή: Αντώνης Αντωνίου

Εννά φκαιρώσω την βαλίτσαν τζαι τα ππουρτού που ποβαρούν
Να ξαλαβρύνω τούτους τους ώμους που τ’ άχρηστα που κουβαλούν

Μες το πισσούριν λάσσουν οι σσιύλλοι, εν σε αφήννουν ν’ αθθυμηθείς
Έσιεις το έναν σου το μμάτιν ορθάννοιχτον μεν τζοιμηθείς

Μες το γυαλλίν σου θωρείς κάθ’ ημέρα τζείνον τον κόσμον που λαχταρείς
Που τον εφύλαες τες νύχτες μες τ’ όνειρον σου να τον χαρείς

Σαν του μωρού το ανόθευτον βλέμμαν, σαν την σταγόναν της πρώτης βροσιής
Άμαν ιφκείς που τον ίσιον δρόμον τζαι κόψεις κούρβαν για να χαθείς

Εν θέλεις, ρε πελλέ μου, βαλίτσαν, ούτε πυξίδαν, ούτε σσιοινίν
Παίξε όπως είσαι με τον αέραν που σου σφυρά τζαι που σε καλιεί​

The Suitcase
Music and lyrics: Antonis Antoniou, ​ Main voice: Antonis Antoniou

I’m going to empty this suitcase of the baggage weighing me down
Take the useless load off my back

Dogs barking in pitch dark won’t let you remember
You sleep with one eye wide-open so you are only half asleep

Every day in your mirror you see the world you’re craving for the world you nurtured in your dreams at night

Like a baby’s innocent look, like the first raindrop
All you do is turn off the main street, disappear round the bend

Mate, you need no suitcase, compass or rope
Play with the wind the way you are, it’s out there whistling and calling you
