Paroles et traduction Μιχάλης Χατζηγιάννης - Πόσες βροχές πόσοι χειμώνες

Πόσες βροχές πόσοι χειμώνες

Metrisa tis epohes tora sosta
Mu ′pan alithies palies, logia gnosta
Pios to skotadi na nika
To 'matha esto ki arga

Poses vrohes posi himones
Tis nihtes mu ′kanan eones
Ke 'menan i skepsis mu mones
O fovos na tis kiverna

Metrisa tis epohes tora sosta
Mu 'pan alithies palies, logia gnosta
Gia mia stigmi pu tolma
Ke piso pote de girna

Poses vrohes posi himones
Sta hronia mu ′ginan thamones
Ke ′pezan rithmus i stagones
I anixi na mi xipna

How Many Rains How Many Winters

The season's measures are silent now
They bring old truths, familiar words
Who will conquer the darkness
I've learned it late and with difficulty

How many rains, how many winters
Have made my nights seem like ages
And my thoughts have multiplied
The fear of them governing you

The season's measures are silent now
They bring old truths, familiar words
For a moment I dare
And I never fall back

How many rains, how many winters
Have become burial mounds in my years
And the drops beat their rhythms
So that spring will not awaken
