Lyrics

You, my little roses
you my little roses and you my herbs,
my tormentors…

’Twas you lulled me to sleep
when my love upped and left,
so delicate yet so fulsome.
I take to the mountains to search and ask the hills,
to implore God on high.
They may have seen my love, my beloved,
the ache in my heart.

Translated by Michael Eleftheriou

Original Lyrics

Εσείς τριανταφυλλάκια μου

Εσείς, μωρέ, ν-εσείς τριανταφυλλάκια μου
εσείς τριανταφυλλάκια μου κι εσείς μυρωδικά μου
για βάσανα δικά μου.

Εσείς μ’ αποκοιμίσατε και μου ’φυγε η αγάπη
κοντούλα και γιομάτη.
Παίρνω τα όρη ψάχνοντας και τα βουνά ρωτώντας
το Θιο παρακαλώντας.
Μην είδαν την αγάπη μου, την αγαπητικιά μου
τον πόνο της καρδιάς μου.
