Ο Σαλονικιός [O Salonikios] [English translation]

May all leave from the middle*

to come and dance the man from Saloniki

May make for him caption

To steal the night, the man from Saloniki**

Baglamades*** to play tsifteteli****

to light the strings (of baglamas), immediately

And the bouzouki to burn the loft

he dances and he likes it, the man from Saloniki

Feast beautiful and super

Grew and tonight, the man from Saloniki

May I drink for his health

To be forever good, the man from Saloniki

Baglamades***

May all leave from the middle*

he filled the dance floor, the man from Saloniki

Baglamades***

May all leave from the middle*

he filled the dance floor, the man from Saloniki
