from Volkslieder (Folksongs)
Translation by Michel Dimitri Calvocoressi (1877 - 1944)

Ξύπνησε, ξύπνησε πετροπέρδικα
Language: Greek (Ελληνικά) 
Ξύπνησε, ξύπνησε πετροπέρδικα,
τίναξε τα φτερά σου,
τρεις ελιές και μια βαμένη,
την καρδιά μου χεις καμένη.

Χρυσή κορδέλα σούφερα,
να πλέξεις τα μαλλιά σου.
Βρ' έλα να γινούμεν ταίρια,
κ' οι γονιοί μας συμπεθέρια.

Réveille-toi, réveille-toi, perdrix mignonne,
Ouvre au matin tes ailes.
Trois grains de beauté,

Si tu veux, ma belle, viens nous marier!
Dans nos deux familles, tous sont alliés!
