Το βουνό

4 posts in this topic

Το βουνό | | The mountain

Μουσική : Λουκάς Νταράλας | | Music: Loukas Dalaras

Στίχοι : Βαγγέλης Πέρκας | | Lyrics: Vangelis Perkas

Θ' ανέβω και θα τραγουδήσω | | I will climb up, and I will sing,

στο πιο ψηλότερο βουνό | | on the highest mountain,

ν' ακούγεται στην ερημιά | | so that, in the wilderness, will be heard

ο πόνος μου με την πενιά | | my pain, with the beat of the music.

Με το βουνό θα γίνω φίλος | | With the mountain I will make friends,

και με τα πεύκα συντροφιά | | and with the pine trees, companions.

Όταν θα κλαίω και πονώ | | When I will cry and suffer pain,

θ' αναστενάζει το βουνό | | the mountain will sigh [with me].

Απάνω στο βουνό θα μείνω | | High on the mountain I will stay,

κι από τον κόσμο μακριά | | and far from the world.

Θα κλαίω μόνος, θα πονώ | | I will cry alone, I will suffer pain,

και θα μ' ακούει το βουνό. | | and the mountain will listen to me.

That one needs almost nothing.

Με το βουνό θα γίνω φίλος | | With the mountain I will make friends,

I thought 'become' would be better. Unless I don't know that expression.

θ' αναστενάζει το βουνό | | the mountain will sigh [with me].

[with me] is not necessary, with brackets or not.
