Έλα μάνα μ' στα προικιά

Original Lyrics
Έλα μάνα μ' στα προικιά
Έλα μάνα μ’ στα προικιά και δοσ’ μου την ευχή σου
γιατί θα φύγω μακριά, δε θα ’μαι πια δική σου.
Εμένα να ξεγράψετε ’πο τούτα τα δεφτέρια
γιατί θα φύγω μακριά, θα ζήσω σ’ άλλα χέρια.
Η μέρα η σημερινή δεν είναι σαν τις άλλες
σήμερα εγώ παντρεύομαι κι έχω χαρές μεγάλες.
Σήμερα λάμπει ο ουρανός, σήμερα λάμπει η μέρα,
σήμερα στεφανώνεται αϊτός με περιστέρα.
