Σ' αναζητώ στη Σαλονίκη [S'anazito Sti Saloniki] [English translation]

Since I was seede by a imperial destiny

I was born from the womb of an ancient Macedonian woman

witn an empty quiver I fight in the winter

from the castle in the heart of Platamona(it's an area in the northern part of Greece)

Since I am brought by a footpath from Fanari(where the Patriarchate is in Istanbul)

a street from Saloniki holds me

come one night to take the promise

before she is wipped out from Vardaris(a river and the name of a wind )

I search for you

I search for you in Saloniki at dawn

your look is missing from the colors of the dawn

I search for you

I search for you with a violin and a bow

the dream you and the bow are missing

Since I get drunk with a wine from Agion Oros(a place where many monasteries are, only men are permitted there)

and with a painful thought like the ones from Istanbul(/Konstantinoupoli/Poli) I get extremely blue(the translation is not exact,these words do not exist in any language apart Greek and Turkish)

find the knife that splits us in two

and come here to the parapet of sighs

Since the Gods in Olympus have decided

they give the keys to the cold and they committed suicide

alone she awakes alone she sleeps now the day (day in Greek is female)

with a motor bike a pc and a flute

I search for you

I search for you in Saloniki at dawn

your look is missing from the colors of the dawn

I search for you

I search for you with a violin and a bow

the dream you and the bow are missing
