Γι’ ακούσατε τι θα σας πω

Listen

Now list, good man, just list to me, to what I have to tell.
Just list to what I have to tell of what befell a widow,
a wretched widow she.
The widow woman lost her cunt and says I took it from her,
but t’was not I that took it.

The cunt lay on a precipice, the cock was way below,
and begged the cunt in urgent terms: – Come down a little further!
– I’m not for coming down, old cock, because you’re all wound up.
Poke into any hole you find – you will not be the loser!

Translated by John Leatham

Γι’ ακούσατε τι θα σας πω

Γι’ ακού- μωρέ γι’ ακούσατε τι θα σας πω,
γι’ ακούσατε τι θα σας πω, τι έπαθε μια χήρα,
μια χήρα η κακομοίρα,
και το μουνί της έχασε και λέει πως της το πήρα,
μα εγώ δεν της το πήρα.

Το μ’νί στο γκρέμιο κάθουνταν κι ο πούτσος παρακάτω,
παρακαλούσε το μουνί. – Κατέβα παρακάτω!
– Δεν κατεβαίνω, πούτσκαρε, γιατ’ είσαι κορδωμένος,
όπ’ εύρεις τρύπα χώνεσαι, δε βγαίνεις ζημιωμένος!
