Stēn porta stekei ē mana mu
kai t'aspro tēs t'acheili
sa phyllo tremoseinetai,
san psari pu sparazei.

Ē aderphoyla mu, eche geia,
mu leei me to mantēli,
mia to salebei ki epeita
sta matia tēs to bazei.

Ki o aderphos mu ōs stē gōnia
tu dromu me pagainei
me prosōpo sa charōpo,
m'atholōta ta matia.

Ach! ma niōthō otan m'ankaliase,
pōs brazei ki' anasainei,
pōs mesa spun ta splachna tu
kai ginuntai kommatia.
