Lyrics[]

Arga, arga
Flogas kormi, kanis mayia
Thila, thila
Mu klinis, matia – fegaria

Horepse, stis karthias mu tus htipus, pali
San karavani, t' astra, n' akolutho
Horepse, tis erimu, margaritari
Mes' ap' to soma su, n' anastitho

Horepse, stis karthias mu tus htipus, pali
San karavani, t' astra, n' akolutho
Horepse, tis erimu, margaritari
Mes' ap' to soma su, n' anastitho

Siga, siga
Ki itha ti nihta na lioni
Hloma, hloma
Heria yimna na m' aploni

Horepse, stis karthias mu tus htipus, pali
San karavani, t' astra, n' akolutho
Horepse, tis erimu, margaritari
Mes' ap' to soma su, n' anastitho

Horepse, stis karthias mu tus htipus, pali
San karavani, t' astra, n' akolutho
Horepse, tis erimu, margaritari
Mes' ap' to soma su, n' anastitho

Horepse, stis karthias mu tus htipus, pali
San karavani, t' astra, n' akolutho
Horepse, tis erimu, margaritari
Mes' ap' to soma su, n' anastitho

Slowly, slowly
Like the flame's figure, you cast your spells
Shyly, shyly
You close your moon-shaped eyes

Dance again to the beat of my heart
And like a caravan I'll follow the stars
Dance, pearl of the desert
And through your body I'll resurrect myself

Dance again to the beat of my heart
And like a caravan I'll follow the stars
Dance, pearl of the desert
And through your body I'll resurrect myself

Softly, softly
I saw the night melting
Palely, palely
She laid her naked hands upon me

Dance again to the beat of my heart
And like a caravan I'll follow the stars
Dance, pearl of the desert
And through your body I'll resurrect myself

Dance again to the beat of my heart
And like a caravan I'll follow the stars
Dance, pearl of the desert
And through your body I'll resurrect myself

Dance again to the beat of my heart
And like a caravan I'll follow the stars
Dance, pearl of the desert
And through your body I'll resurrect myself
