Original Lyrics

Κάτω στο γιαλό

Kάτω στο γιαλό, κάτω στο περιγιάλι
πλέναν Xιώτισσες, πλέναν παπαδοπούλες.
Και μια Xιώτισσα, μικρή παπαδοπούλα
έπλεν’ άπλωνε και με την άμμο παίζει.
Φύσηξε βοριάς, μαΐστρος, τραμουντάνα
και της σήκωσε το ποδοφούστανό της
και της φάνηκε ο παδαστράγαλός της
έλαμψ’ ο γιαλός.
