LYRICS: Five Greeks in Hell 


Five Greeks in Hell
met one night
and they got the party started
and they broke everything around them

With bouzouki and baglama
they turned mad the devils
and dizzy with all pleasure
the condemned ones were dancing

For the Greek (Romaic) song
they burned down the matchwood
and everyone was shouting in turn
Long live our Greece!

 

 

LYRICS IN GREEK

Πέντε Έλληνες στον Άδη
ανταμώσαν ένα βράδυ
Και το γλέντι αρχινάνε
κι όλα γύρω τους τα σπάνε

Με μπουζούκια, μπαγλαμάδες
τρέλαναν τους σατανάδες
Κι από κέφι ζαλισμένοι
χόρευαν οι κολασμένοι

Στο ρωμαίικο τραγούδι
κάηκε το πελεκούδι
Κι όλοι φώναζαν αράδα
να μας ζήσει η Ελλάδα

Keep in mind this is a highly traditional song and to understand it you need to know the culture in depth because it has many culture references.


I made a stright free transaltion. The lyrics in English can be better. 

OTHER PERFORMERS
Giannis Papaioannou (original), Konstantinios Karagiozidis, Eleni Vitali

HAPPY WEEK END
