Original Lyrics

Απόψι τα μεσάνυχτα

Απόψιν απόψι τα μεσάνυχτα
Σηκώθηκα να γράψω –τρυγονάκι μου
Και κοντυ- και κοντυλιά δεν έριξα
Κι αρχίνησα να κλάψω –το πουλάκι μου
Σηλυβρια- Σηλυβριανή μου Παναγιά
Στο μπόγι σου λαμπάδα –τρυγονάκι μου
Να φέρεις, να φέρεις την αγάπη μου
Αυτήν την εβδομάδα –τρυγονάκι μου
