Original Lyrics
Μια χήρα πούλαγε κρασί
Μια χήρα πού- μια χήρα πούλαγε κρασί,
μια χήρα πούλαγε κρασί και μάζωνε σιτάρι
και μάζωνε σιτάρι.
Μες το κρασί ρίχνει νερό, στο στάρι ρίχνει βρώμη.
- Γιατί νερώνεις το κρασί στο στάρι ρίχνεις βρώμη;
- Έχω κόρη για παντρειά θέλει να κάνει προίκα
να κάνει ζώνη του γαμπρού, ποδιά της πεθεράς της.
