Nuxta (Night) testo

Nihta ki ali nihta kuvalun ta fortiga
irtha sti zoi mu arga arga ke na tin arnitho
megas erotas ke tromos in’i nihta pu metho
sto dromo me tiflonun fota, pios me kiniga?

I kardia mu theli na petaksi,
na petaksi tu Theu na miasi
Telos ki arhi, griza mu psihi
I agapi floga stahti i agapi floga stahti
I agapi ach ki ahti

ENGLISH TRANSLATION

Night and more night
the trucks carry.
I arrived into life very late
very late to deny it.
In the night I get drunk
a great love and terror,
in the streets the lights blind me.
Who chases me?

My heart wants to fly,
to fly and resemble a god.
End and beginning,
my grey soul,
Love, flame, ashes.
Love, a sigh and a yearning
