Original Lyrics
Τα Καρναβάλια του Σοχού
Κινήσαν τα Σοχνούδια στο πανηγύρ’ να πάν’
στο δρόμο που πηγαίναν καρτέρ’ τους κάνανε.
Τέσσερα πορτοκάλια, Θοδώρα, τα δυο σαπίσανε
ήθελα να σ' τα στείλω, Θοδώρα, μα δε μ’ αφήσανε.
Μαύρη ήταν η καρότσα, Θοδώρα, άσπρα τ’ αλόγατα
ήθελα να σε πάρω, Θοδώρα, τα ξημερώματα.
