Notis Sfakianakis "Mia mikri mauroforousa" lyrics

Translation to:en

Mia mikri mauroforousa

Μια μικρή μαυροφορούσαΌμορφη μαυρομαλλούσαΣτο λιγνό της το κορμάκι ένα μαύρο σεντονάκιΣτον σταυρό της πάνω κλαίει,Και μοιρολογάει και λέει,

Με προδώσαν τα παιδιά μουΤα όσια και τα ιερά μουΜε προδώσαν κι οι μεγάλοιΠάλι με προδώσαν, πάλιΟι μεγάλοι, αυτά τα κτήνη,Όπως τότε εκεί στη ΣμύρνηΠου δεν με βάζαν στα πλοίαΝα πνιγώ στη παραλία (x2)

Αχ, κι να χα μια ασπίδαΤους 300 του ΛεωνίδαTο "μολών λαβέ" να πούνεΣτα λαβείν τους και στα δούναιΌπως έγραψε το όχι,Και του Έλληνα η κάθε λόγχη

Μα 300 βρίσκω άλλουςΑγκαζέ με τους μεγάλουςΚι αντί το "μολών λαβέ" τους,Με πουλάνε με τα "ναι" τουςΜα 300 τιμωρία θα σας γράψει η ιστορίαΘα σας ρίχνει στον ΚαιάδαΌσο υπάρχει η Ελλάδα (x2)

A young girl dressed in black

A young girl dressed in blackA beautiful black haired girlThere is a black sheet on her lean bodyShe's crying over her crossShe's singing a funeral song and saying

My children betrayed meThey betrayed everything I have that is HolyThe people in power also betrayed meThey betrayed me againThe people in power, those beastsLike back then in the catastrophe of SmyrnaWhere they wouldn't let me get on the shipSo I would drown on the coast (x2)

Ah, if only I had a shield,If only I had Leonidas 300 menSo they could say "come and take"With their transactions,Just like every Greeks spear,Wrote "NO"

But instead I find 300 different people (referring to 300 in parliament today)Hand in hand with the people in powerAnd instead of saying "come and take"They sell me out with their "yes"But for your punishment,The 300 of you will go down in historyAs long as Greece exists,It will throw you into Kaiadas (a place the ancient Spartans used to throw criminals and prisoners of war into)
