Mes Stou Vosporou Ta Stena (Μες στου Βοσπόρου τα στενά)

Μες στου Βοσπόρου τα στενάο Γιάννης κλαίει τα δειλινάκαι ο Μεμέτης πλάϊ τουπίνει και τραγουδάει του

Τούρκος εγώ κι εσύ Ρωμιόςκι εγώ λαός κι εσύ λαόςεσύ Χριστός κι εγώ Αλλάχόμως κι οι δυό μας άχ και βάχ

Με λίγη αγάπη και κρασίμεθάω κι εγώ μεθάς κι εσύπιές λίγο από το τάσι μουαδέλφι και καρντάση μου

In the straits of the Bosphorus

In the straits of the BosphorusYiánis sobs at sunset

And Mehmet by his sidedrinks and sings to him

And Mehmet by his sidedrinks and sings to him

A Turk I am and you are Greek (Romiós)I belong to a people and you belong to a people too

You Christ and I AllahBut we both sigh "ááh" and "váh" (it means both sigh with melancholy, the blues)

You Christ and I AllahBut we both sigh "ááh" and "váh"

With a little love (agápi) and wine (krasì)I Intoxicate myself and you Intoxicate yourself

Drink a little from my cupMy brother (adelfi) and my kardasi too

Drink a little from my cupMy brother (adelfi) and my kardasi too

A Turk I am and you are Greek (Romiós)I belong to a people and you belong to a people too

You Christ and I AllahBut we both sigh "ááh" and "váh"

You Christ and I AllahBut we both sigh "ááh" and "váh"
