Original Lyrics
Τί τον(ε) ζηλεύεις Βέργω μ'
Τί τον(ε) ζηλεύεις, Βέργω μ’, τί τον(ε) ζηλε-νε-ύεις,
τον ψηλόν τον ά-ν-άντρα, και τον ακαμά-να-τη,
πο ’σπερνε το χρόνο, Βέργω μ’, πο ’σπερνε το χρόνο,
πο ’σπερνε το χρόνο, ένα σκιάδι σπόρο.
Κι έκλαιε κι οδυρόταν, Βέργω μ’, κι έκλαιε κι οδυρόταν,
πως θα το θερίσει και θα ντ’ αλωνίσει.
Η καλή γυναίκα, Βέργω μ’, η καλή γυναίκα,
αυτή θα το θερίσει και θα ντ’ αλωνίσει.
