Original Lyrics

Κάτω στη Ρόδο

Κάτω στη Ρόδο στο Ροδονήσι,
Τούρκος εβγήκε να κυνηγήσει.
Δεν κυνηγάει λαγούς και ’λάφια,
μόν’ κυνηγάει τα μαύρα μάτια.
«Μαύρα μου μάτια κόκκινα χείλη,
έβγα πουλάκι μου στο παναθύρι
Να δεις τον ήλιο και το φεγγάρι,
να δεις το νέο που θα σε πάρει».
Η κόρη φεύγει δεν τονε θέλει,
τα μάτια παίρνει στα όρη φεύγει.
Η σκύλα η μάνα της τον Τούρκο θέλει,
και καθημέρα τον προξενεύει.
«Πάρτονε κόρη μου τον Τούρκο γι άντρα,
θα σε φορέσει παπούτσι μαύρα».
«Δεν τονε θέλω δεν τονε παίρνω,
πέρδικα γίνομαι στα όρη φεύγω».
