ΧΑΝΤΡΑ ΣΤΟ ΚΟΜΠΟΛΟΙ ΣΟΥ

3 posts in this topic

I've been doing some homework, working on songs. But I'll need help ...

ΧΑΝΤΡΑ ΣΤΟ ΚΟΜΠΟΛΟΙ ΣΟΥ

Μουσική: Σταύρος Κουγιουμτζής

Στίχοι: Σταύρος Κουγιουμτζής

Βγαίνεις νωρίς να πας στην εκκλησιά

σπαθί κι αστροπελέκι

χτυπάνε Θεέ μου τα καμπαναριά

κι ο ήλιος πέρα στέκει

Αχ να 'μουν στο φουστάνι σου

κουμπί μαλαματένιο

χάντρα στο κομπολόι σου

το μαργαριταρένιο

Παίρνω τους δρόμους τρέχω σαν παιδί

μήπως σε συναντήσω

ίσκιος να γίνω μάτι μη με δει

να 'ρθω να σε φιλήσω

Pearl on your komboloi

You leave early to go to church

sword and thunderbold (but I think this line cannot be translated word by word, I think it's an expression ?)

My God, hit the bell-tower

and the sun now stands still

Ach, to be on your skirt

a golden button

A pearl on your komboloi

the pearl

I run in the streets like a child

maybe I meet you

this line is not whole clear to me.

to come to kiss you.

Teachers, help the student please.

 Here is my attempt...

    You leave early to go to church

    sword and thunderbold (=you could say it means with a

                                       straight, still stature)

    oh God, the bell-towers ring

    and the sun stands beyong.

    Ach, to be on your skirt

    a golden button

    a bead in your komboloi

    the pearly one.

    I run in the streets like a child

    maybe I'll meet you

    a shadow I'll become so as no eye will see me

    to come and kiss you.

 I hope I've been of some help...

Thanks SPQR, I knew there were some lines that were not quite correct.

Just cannot say enough how I love to learn, allthough it goes slowly.
