Bride's Song

Ήρθεν η ώρα η καλή

Listen

Original Lyrics

Ήρθεν η ώρα η καλή

Ήρθεν η ώρα η καλή κι η υπερευλογημένη
να παραδώσ’ την πέρδικα, την ανθοστολισμένη.

Βάλε μετάνοια, φίλησε της μάνας σου το χέρι
γιατί θα πας στην εκκλησιά, να κάνεις άλλο ταίρι.

Μα σένα κόρη πρέπει σου, καρέκλα καρυδένια
για ν’ ακουμπάς τη μέση σου, τη μαργαριταρένια.

Νύφη, ωραία νύφη μου, μηλιά μου με τους κλώνους
αντάμα με το ταίρι σου, να ζήσεις χίλιους χρόνους.

Γαμπρέ και συμπεθέροι μου, λόγο θα σας προτείνω
να μη μας τον μαράνετε, τον άσπρο μας τον κρίνο.
