Μες στου Μαγιού τις μυρωδιές

Original Lyrics

Μες στου Μαγιού τις μυρωδιές

Μες στου Μαγιού τση μυρωδιές, τα κόκκινα κεράσια
για δέστε πώς χορεύουνε τση Κρήτης τα κοράσια.

Μαυροματού, μαυροφρυδού, μαύρα είναι τα μαλλιά σου
μαύρα είν’ τα χιόνια στα βουνά μπροστά στην ομορφιά σου.

Άγγελος είσαι μάτια μου κι αγγελικά χορεύεις
αγγελικά πατείς στη γη κι όλους τους νιους μαραίνεις.
