I Anixi (translation: "The Spring") was the Greek entry at the Eurovision Song Contest 1991 in Rome performed by Sophia Voussou.
The song is a rock opera/power ballad with jazz elements, with Vossou telling her lover that if they are together it will be as if spring has begun.
It was performed 4th on the night following Malta and preceding Switzerland. Despite Sophia's successful vocal performance, a saxophonist, who was the replacement for another, bungled his notes during his solo. At the close of voting, it finished in 13th place with 36 points.

An ertheis kai ti nychta mou ntytheis
An ertheis kai sto soma mou kryfteis
An ertheis kai sta dichtya mou blechteis
Ena na xereis, de tha prodotheis
An ertheis kai ti nychta mou ntytheis
An ertheis kai sto soma mou kryfteis
An ertheis kai sta dichtya mou blechteis
Ena na xereis, de tha prodotheis
Tha ‘nai sa na bainei i anoixi
Tha ‘nai ouranou katanyxi
Tha ‘nai sa na bainei i anoixi
Sta xafnika
Tha ‘nai sa na bainei i anoixi
Tha ‘nai ouranou katanyxi
Tha ‘nai sa na bainei i anoixi
Sta xafnika
An stous anemous eimast’ anoichtoi
An s’ oti zoume eimaste pistoi
An tou erota mas denei i klosti
Ta dyo kormia mas, kipoi kremastoi
Tha ‘nai sa na bainei i anoixi
Tha ‘nai ouranou katanyxi
Tha ‘nai sa na bainei i anoixi
Sta xafnika
Tha ‘nai sa na bainei i anoixi
Tha ‘nai ouranou katanyxi
Tha ‘nai sa na bainei i anoixi
Sta xafnika
Tha ‘nai sa na bainei i anoixi
Tha ‘nai ouranou katanyxi
Tha ‘nai sa na bainei i anoixi
Sta xafnika
If you come and get dressed at my night
If you come and hide in my body
If you come and get entangled in my nets
One thing you should know, you won’t be betrayed
If you come and get dressed at my night
If you come and hide in my body
If you come and get entangled in my nets
One thing you should know, you won’t be betrayed
It will be as if the spring comes in
It will be devoutness of sky
It will be as if the spring comes in
Suddenly
It will be as if the spring comes in
It will be devoutness of sky
It will be as if the spring comes in
Suddenly
If we are open to the winds
If we are faithful to what we live
If the thread of love binds us
Our two bodies will be hanging gardens
It will be as if the spring comes in
It will be devoutness of sky
It will be as if the spring comes in
Suddenly
It will be as if the spring comes in
It will be devoutness of sky
It will be as if the spring comes in
Suddenly
It will be as if the spring comes in
It will be devoutness of sky
It will be as if the spring comes in
Suddenly
