Η σούστα πήγαινε μπροστά [I sousta pige brosta] [English translation]

The light wagon went in front

and the urchin, from wall to wall

it didn't happen in those years

for me to have luck in anything

They are lighting fires in the neighborhoods

for St. John's [Day], ah how many you know and you tell me

ah how many of these you know and you tell me

who have died

They put me on the crest

on the wild wave

of the destruction of Smyrna

in injustice and crime
