Μια ιστορία από παλιά

Mia istoria apo palia

A story from the past

Άγγιξε τα βάθη της καρδιάς

Angixe ta vathi tis kardias

Touched the depths of the heart

Ως τα μύχια της ψυχής

Os ta mychia tis psychis

To the core of the soul

Κι ένωσε δυο ανθρώπους.

And united two people.

Πόση αγάπη, πόσα όνειρα

Posi agapi, posa oneira

How much love, how many dreams

Κάναμε μαζί και χωριστά

Kaname mazi kai chorista

We made together and apart

Στα δωμάτια τα σκοτεινά

Sta domatia ta skoteina

In the dark rooms

Κλαίγαμε κι οι δυο

Klaigame ki oi dyo

We both cried

Για τον ίδιο πόνο.

For the same pain.

Με τα μάτια της ψυχής

Me ta matia tis psychis

With the eyes of the soul

Σε κοίταζα για ώρες

Se koitaza gia ores

I looked at you for hours

Μέσα από τα όνειρα

Mesa apo ta oneira

Through dreams

Σε έβρισκα κοντά μου.

I found you near me.

Κι όταν ξημέρωνε η αυγή

Ki otan ximerone i avgi

And when dawn broke

Μου έλειπες και πάλι

Mou eleipes kai pali

I missed you again

Μα η αγάπη στην καρδιά

Ma i agapi stin kardia

But the love in my heart

Δεν έσβησε ούτε στιγμή

Den esvise oute stigmi

Didn't fade for a moment

Ψυχούλα μου, πονάς

Psychoula mou, ponas

My dear soul, you hurt

Το ξέρω, μ' αγαπάς

To xero, m' agapas

I know, you love me

Κι ας μη μιλάς, το νιώθω

Ki as mi milas, to niotho

And even if you don't speak, I feel it

Μέσα απ' τη σιωπή σου.

Through your silence.

Θα βρίσκομαι εδώ

Tha vriskomai edo

I will be here

Να γιατρεύω τις πληγές

Na giatrevo tis pliges

To heal the wounds

Να σου κρατώ το χέρι

Na sou krato to cheri

To hold your hand

Να σε παίρνω αγκαλιά.

To hold you in my arms.

Μέχρι να ξεπεράσουμε

Mechri na xeperasoume

Until we overcome

Μαζί ό,τι μας πονά

Mazi o,ti mas pona

Together whatever hurts us

Γιατί μια τέτοια αγάπη

Giati mia teloia agapi

Because such a love

Δεν τελειώνει έτσι απλά.

Doesn't just end.

Κι αν μας χώρισαν οι δρόμοι

Ki an mas chorisan oi dromoi

And if paths separated us

Κι αν μας λύγισαν οι χρόνοι

Ki an mas lygisan oi chronoi

And if time bent us

Μια υπόσχεση παλιά

Mia yposchesi palia

An old promise

Ζει ακόμα στην καρδιά.

Still lives in the heart.

Δεν ζητάω υποσχέσεις

Den zitao yposchesis

I don't ask for promises

Ούτε λόγια δυνατά

Oute logia dynata

Nor strong words

Μόνο να ξέρεις πως υπάρχω

Mono na xereis pos yparcho

Just for you to know that I exist

Και θα είμαι πάντα εδώ.

And I will always be here.

Αν κουραστείς, έλα κοντά

An kourasteis, ela konta

If you get tired, come close

Μη φοβηθείς τα δάκρυά σου

Mi fovitheis ta dakrya sou

Don't be afraid of your tears

Θα βρεις μια θέση στην καρδιά

Tha vreis mia thesi stin kardia

You will find a place in my heart

Και μια αγκαλιά δική σου.

And an embrace of your own.

Ψυχούλα μου, πονάς

Psychoula mou, ponas

My dear soul, you hurt

Το ξέρω, μ' αγαπάς

To xero, m' agapas

I know, you love me

Κι εγώ θα είμαι εδώ

Ki ego tha eimai edo

And I will be here

Να μη νιώθεις μοναξιά.

So you don't feel lonely.

Θα σου κρατώ το χέρι

Tha sou krato to cheri

I will hold your hand

Στις δύσκολες στιγμές

Stis dyskoles stigmes

In difficult times

Κι ας πέρασαν τα χρόνια

Ki as perasan ta chronia

And even if years have passed

Θα μείνουν οι αγάπες ζωντανές.

Tha meinoun oi agapes zontanes.

Our loves will remain alive.

Never faded

Γιατί όσα γράφει η ψυχή

Δεν τα σβήνει ο χρόνος εύκολα ποτέ.

Den ta svinei o chronos eykola pote.

Time never easily erases.
