Music/Lyrics*: Yannis Fyssas
*Greek Lyrics based on poems written by Dimitris Fyssas
My search is but for one word, the perfect fit
To mend all my poems bit by bit
Elusive, stubborn, lost, but known
Only that word, I long to own.
If she emerges, I'll be complete
Each poetic battle, without defeat
Or I'll shred it with blows that sting
This poem ends now no more songs to sing.
With some effort, words can be found,
Defining things, seeking meaning profound
Yet, it's hard to find the missing link
Things to define words, to make hearts sing.
And if they come, I'll surely mend
Each poem's fight, each verse I tend
Or I'll crush it with blows that sting
This poem dies here no more songs to sing
This poem dies here no more songs to sing.
I found one word at last, so empowered,
She led me far away, to places uncharted
She’s no longer enough, verses want to break free
They too feel estranged, longing for infinity.
This is why I shred this work, with bloody fists,
And from right now on this poem ceases to exist.
Γιά Μιά Λέξη
Μια λέξη ψάχνω, ενδεδειγμένη
Μονάχα μια, μου κάνει εδώ
Εκείνη ψάχνω στρυφνή, χαμένη
Εκείνη μόνο αποζητώ.
Aν μου προκύψει ολοκληρώνω
Το κάθε ποίημα που πολεμώ
Αλλιώς τα σκίζω, και τα ματώνω
Κι αυτό το ποίημα τελειώνει εδώ.
Mε λίγο κόπο, βρίσκονται λέξεις
Πράγματα ορίζουν, νόημα ζητούν
Δύσκολο όμως, πράγματα να βρεθούν
Λέξεις να ορίζουν, κι αυτά να μιλούν.
Κι αν μου προκύψουν ολοκληρώνω
Το κάθε ποίημα που πολεμώ
Αλλιώς τα σκίζω, και τα ματώνω
Κι αυτό το ποίημα τελειώνει εδώ.
Mια λέξη βρήκα, ξεσηκωμένη
Πέρα μακριά, με πήρε αυτή
Πιά δε μου φτάνει, σαν γράφω τραγούδια
Ξενιτεμένα είναι κι αυτά.
Γ' αυτό τα σκίζω, και τα ματώνω
Κι αυτό το ποίημα τελειώνει εδώ.
Ξενιτεμένα Τραγούδια #ModernGreekFolk translates to “Expatriated Songs”, but a more accurate phrase might be, “Songs That
Left the Homeland”. The album captures the sentiment of love and longing shared by more than 7 million Greeks living abroad. A blend of Western / Greek instruments and arrangements that push the boundaries of Contemporary Folk, Greek Western Music....more
