Κόλιντα τσέλιγκα

Original Lyrics

Κόλιντα τσέλιγκα (Μετσόβου)

Κόλιντα τσέλιγκα, γεια χαρά και του πασά
τζι-τζι κάκα, δώσ’ μου τα κουλάκα μη σ’πάρω τα τσουβάλκα.

Χριστούγεννα Πρωτούγεννα, πρώτη γιορτή του χρόνου
για ιδέστε, βγείτε, μάθετε πως ο Χριστός γεννιέται
γεννιέται κι ανατρέφεται με μέλι και με γάλα
το μέλι τρων οι άρχοντες, το γάλα οι αφεντάδες
και το μελισσοβότανο, να λούζονται οι κυράδες.

Για κάνετε τον κόπο σας κι ανοίξτε το πουγκί σας
κι αν είστ’ από τους πλούσιους, φλουριά μην τα λυπάστε
κι αν είστ’ από τους δεύτερους, τάληρα και δραχμούλες
κι αν είστ’ από τους πάμφτωχους, ένα ζευγάρι κότες.

                    Και του χρόνου
