Ena tragoudi gia tin Eleni – Giorgos Dalaras – English Lyrics
There is a word that has crippled me,
a word that follows me everywhere
and asks me for answers morning and night,
“why”, I don’t want it anymore, I’m bored of it.
Carols and triangles,
each Christmas I remember a child
plunged in anger, in a huge why.
Whisper and scream, a wound that is bleeding.
Every moment of my life a great why.
Two three dreams that remained
have been in pawn and we are left broke.
The usurer will send us to jail,
Eleni, you have taken all of us in your back.
Carols and triangles,
each Christmas I remember a child
plunged in anger, in a huge why.
Whisper and scream, a wound that is bleeding.
Every moment of my life a great why.
