Ο ΠΑΡΑΔΕΙΣΟΣ ΜΟΥ - MY PARADISE

Ηρώ Σαΐα: Ο Παράδεισός μου. (Iro Saia: O paradisos mou - My paradise). Details. 

Ο Παράδεισός μου

Ο Παράδεισός μου είναι ένας κάμπος
που δεν έχει λύρες, που δεν έχει αηδόνια
Μόνο μια πηγούλα κι ένα ποταμάκι
κρύφιο ποταμάκι και μικρή πηγή

Μόνο τη ζεστή καρδιά σου χαρισέ μου
κι άλλο τίποτα κι άλλο τίποτα

Ο Παράδεισός μου διάφανη γαλήνη
που θα τη ραγίζουν τα γλυκά φιλιά μας
Που θα τη ραγίζουν τα γλυκά φιλιά μας
ήχοι απ’ το φεγγάρι που τραβάν μακριά

My paradise

My paradise is a field
that has no lyras, has no nightingales
Just a little spring and small river
a hidden river and a little spring

Just give me your warm heart
and nothing else, and nothing else

My paradise has a soft serenity
that will be broken only by our sweet kisses
that will be broken only by our sweet kisses
and far reaching sounds from the moon


Μουσική: Χρήστος Λεοντής
Στίχοι: Λευτέρης Παπαδόπουλος, Federico Garcia Lorca *
Music: Christos Leontis
Lyrics: Lefteris Papadopoulos, Federico Garcia Lorca

Greek composer Christos Leontis has set a number of poems by the Spanish poet Frederico Garcia Lorca (link) to music. The poems were translated into Greek by lyricist Leftheris Papadopoulos, as Leontis composed the music for these translations. This artistic cooperation resulted in an album that resonated deeply with Greek audiences after the fall of the junta. Playlist Tag: Erota
