Ας είν' η ώρα η καλή

Listen

Original Lyrics

Ας είν' η ώρα η καλή

Ας είν’ η ώρα η καλή και η ευλογημένη
που την ευλόγησ’ ο Θεός με το δεξί του χέρι.

Να ζήσετε χρόνια πολλά
ευτυχισμένα και καλά.

Γαμπρέ μου να την αγαπάς τη νύφη τη χαδούλα
γιατί την είχ’ η μάνα της νοικοκυρά σε ούλα.

Γαμπρέ χρυσή ’ν’ η ζώνη σου
χιλιάδες να ’ν’ οι χρόνοι σου.

Νύφη μου στην α-σκάλα σου φύτεψε μαντζουράνα
να κόβεις να μυρίζεσαι με την καινούργια μάνα.

Νύφη μου ωραία κόρη
περδικούλα από τα όρη.
