Original Lyrics
Κρομέτ'κα τραγωδίας
Εμέναν κλαίει η θάλασσα κι ες εν ψηλόν ρασόπον
ας έτον ν’ αγκαλιάσκουσαν το ψυόπο σ’ με το ψυόπο μ’.
Αρνί μ’ τον τόπο ντο πατείς την πόδα σ’ εγνωρίζω
γομούται παρχαρόν νερόν, κλίσκουμαι κα’ και πίνω.
Που καλατσεύ’σε κι νυστάζ’, π’ ελέψε κι κοιμάται
και με τ’ εσέν που πορπατεί στην χαμονήν πάει χάται.
