Στη Σμύρνη μες στην Αρμενιά

Listen

Original Lyrics

Στη Σμύρνη μες στην Αρμενιά

Στη Σμύρνη μες στην Αρμενιά έχω κι εγώ κι ορίζω
ένα κλωνί βασιλικό νερό να το ποτίζω.

Την καρδιά μ’ έχεις καμένη και δε με πονείς,
λυπήσου με και πάψε να με βασανείς.

Δεν ημπορώ τα μάτια μου ψηλά να τα σηκώσω
και της καημένης μου καρδιάς παρηγοριά να δώσω.

Θέλεις να πεθάνω να με φάει η μαύρη γης,
άλλαξε τη γνώμη σ' κι άρχισε να με πονείς.
