Καράβια χιώτικα [Karavia hiotika] [English translation]

The moonlight suits you,

as it falls upon you,

the summer nights

The daylight also suits you,

as you're rehearsing life,

in front of a mirrored sea

Mistral winds and

ships from Chios*,

will bring me to the seashores of your body

And the peculiar,

and hidden moons,

will shine for me

Your mouth has the fragrance,

of mastic** and kisses,

Your eyes are journeys,

For the madmen of love,

the good and the sinners,

A lifeline for castaways

Mistral winds and

ships from Chios*,

will bring me to the seashores of your body

And the peculiar,

and hidden moons,

will shine for me
