New Year Carol

Listen

Original Lyrics

Άγιος Βασίλης έρχεται (Προποντίδας)

Άγιος Βασίλης έρχεται Γενά- Γενάρης ξημερώνει
Βασίλη μ’ πούθεν έρχεσαι κι απού- κι απούθε κατεβαίνεις.

Από τη μάνα μ’ έρχομαι και στο σχολειό πηγαίνω
να πα να μάθω γράμματα, να πω την αλφαβήτα.
Και στο ραβδί π’ ακούμπησα, χλωρά χορτάρια βγάζει
κι απ’ κάτ’ τα χλωροβλάσταρα, περδίκια φωλιασμένα
δεν είν’ περδίκια μοναχά, ήταν και περιστέρια.
Τα περιστέρια πέταξαν, πάνε στην κρύα βρύση
παίρνουν νερό στα νύχια τους και χιόνι στα φτερά τους
να λούσουν τον αφέντη τους, ν’ αγιάσουν την κυρά τους.

                    Και εις έτη πολλά.
