Apopse glikia mu, fengari miso
Mia kunia pu mas pai os ton urano
As figum' ap' ti yi, kathe tis pliyi
As perimeni os tin avyi
Tut' i niht', agapi mu, in' erotiki
Mono yia mas
Ola t' asteria ston urano
Ftiahnune varkules ki' istera peftun sto yialo
Kane lipon oses thes efhes
Dhe hora i nihta mas enohes
Zise ta skirtimata tis haras
Ine mono yia mas
Mono yia mas
Mono yia mas
Ola t' asteria ston urano
Ftiahnune varkules ki' istera peftun sto yialo
Kane lipon oses thes efhes
Dhe hora i nihta mas enohes
Zise ta skirtimata tis haras
Ine mono yia mas
Mono yia mas
Mono yia mas[1]
Tonight my sweetheart, the half moon
A cradle taking us to the sky
Let's leave the earth, and all its wounds
Let it wait till the dawn
This night, my darling, is a night of love
Only for us
All the stars of the sky
Turn into boats and fall into the ocean
So, make as many wishes you want
There's no room for guilts in our night
Live the thrills of joy
They're only for us
Only for us
Only for us
All the stars of the sky
Turn into boats and fall into the ocean
So, make as many wishes you want
There's no room for guilts in our night
Live the thrills of joy
They're only for us
Only for us
Only for us
