ΤΙΠΟΤΑ ΔΕΝ ΠΑΕΙ ΧΑΜΕΝΟ
Μουσική: Μάνος Λοΐζος
Στίχοι: Μανώλης Ρασούλης
Ερμηνεία: Λιζέτα Καλημέρη, Ανδρέας Καρακότας

Σχεδόν πενήντα χρόνια
βάσανα και διωγμοί
τώρα στη μαύρη αρρώστια
ανάξια πλερωμή.
Το δίκιο του αγώνα
πολλά σου στέρησε
μα η ζωή λεχώνα
ελπίδες γέννησε.

Τίποτα δεν πάει χαμένο
στη χαμένη σου ζωή
τ' όνειρό σου ανασταίνω
και το κάθε σου "γιατί".

Ποτέ δε λες η μοίρα
πως σε αδίκησε
μα μόνο η Ιστορία
αλλιώς σου μίλησε.
Σκυφτός στα καφενεία
στους δρόμους σκεφτικός
μα χθες μες στην πορεία
περνούσες γελαστός.

~~~~~~

Almost fifty years
of suffering and persecution
now in this black disease
unworthy reward.

The just cause of the struggle
deprived you of many things
but life like a pregnant woman
gave birth to hope.

Nothing goes to waste
in your wasted life
I revive your dream
and your every "why"

You never say that fate
has been unjust to you
but only that History
spoke to you differently.

Head down at the coffee houses
thoughtful in the streets
but yesterday at the protest march
you walked by smiling.

Nothing goes to waste
in your wasted life
I revive your dream
and your every "why"

[artanis2alatariel]

You're welcome, my friend! I'm glad you liked her!

[artanis2alatariel]

Haris Alexiou was the first one to sing it...

[Houslenka]

I wanna live there, where you come from and play violin with you..I don´t understand it, it´s just my feeling...Czech Republic..

τι φωνες ειναι αυτες...!

Look for Lizeta singing with Rasoulis (stixougos). He comes in for the refrain, and does it well.

Xaroula is the tops for solo on this piece, of course, But hey, folks, this Lizeta has a voice that fills in for those wonderful singers who are dying. Viki Mosxoliou, for example; Lizeta can do that deep throaty thing like Viki. And she can do some of the quick and high. Has she done Marmaromenos Vasilas? Xaroula still owns that one. I fell in love with her in her big breakout on Mikra Asia.

Guys type Kadifes  and watch the video..fantastic...

[aram34]

Dpapazaharias..I know Alexiou but to tell you the truth I like Lizeta much more..

[dpapazaharias]

Lizeta isn't bad, however, Haris Alexiou is much, much better. Aram34, try finding songs from "Ta Tragoudia Tis Haroulas" (1979), the album this song first came out in.

[dpapazaharias]

Haris Alexiou sang it first, aram34
