GREEK LYRICS

Κίνησε η Γερακίνα
για νερό κρύο να φέρει
ντρουν ντρουν ντρουν, ντρουν ντρουν ντρουν
τα βραχιόλια της βροντούν
ντρούμπου ντρούμπου ντρουν, ντρουν ντρούμπου ντρουν
τα βραχιόλια της βροντούν
Κι έπεσε μες στο πηγάδι
κι έβγαλε φωνή μεγάλη
Κι έτρεξε κι ο κόσμος όλος
κι έτρεξα ώρε κι εγώ καημένος
Γερακίνα θα σε βγάλω
και γυναίκα θα σε πάρω

PHONETIC LYRICS

Kinise i Yerakina
Ya nero kryo nero na feri
Droun droun droun, droun droun droun
Ta vrahiolia tis vrodoun
Droubou droubou droun, droun, droubou droun
Ta vrahiolia tis vrodoun
Ki epese me sto pigadi
Ki evgale ore foni megali
Ki etrekse ki o kosmos olos
Ki etreksa ore ki ego o kaimenos
Yerakina tha se vgalo
Ke yineka tha se paro

ENGLISH TRANSLATION

Yerakina moved to fetch cold water
Droun droun droun, droun droun droun
her bracelets thundered
Droubou droubou droun, droun, droubou droun
her bracelets thundered
She fell in the well,
and out came her big voice
And everyone came running
and I came running
Yerakina, I'll pull you out
and take you for my wife
