S’ Eroteuomai Lyrics English Translation by Eleonora Zouganeli
Zouganeli alternates between dreaming of protection (‘I dreamed you guarded me’) and threatening violence (‘Don’t laugh, I’ll choke you’). She describes pushing someone away while admitting ‘I need you’ through gritted teeth. The lyrics keep circling unresolved contradictions.
S’ EroteuomaiI’m falling in love with you.
Ki Apo Oneiro S’ Allo Oneiro PaoAnd I’m drifting from one dream to another,
Eisai Mesa Mou Kati OlokliroYou’re something whole inside of me,
Ki Apo Fovo To SpaoAnd I’m breaking it out of fear.
Peftoun KlamataTears are falling,
Peftoun Kermata Ma Sou Kryvomai TrechoCoins are dropping, but I’m hiding and running from you,
Kai Katamata Sou ‘pa PsemataAnd I lied right to your face,
Ki Oute Xereis Ti EchoAnd you don’t even know what’s wrong with me.
Den AntechóI can’t take it,
S’ EroteuomaiI’m falling in love with you.
Ti Thanasimo Na Se Vlepo Kai MonoHow lethal it is just to see you,
Kai Ethizomai Ki Oneireuomai Kai Se DiochnoAnd I’m getting addicted, and dreaming, and pushing you away.
ThymonoI’m getting angry,
Ki Olo ErchesaiAnd you keep coming back,
Ki Olo Viazomai To Giati DiastelloAnd I’m always in a rush, searching for a reason why,
Psema Theatro Se ChreiazomaiIt’s a lie, a performance; I need you.
Kapou Paizei Ena TseloSomewhere a cello is playing,
Kai Se TheloAnd I want you,
Kai Mperdeutika Kai Se MperdepsaAnd I got confused, and I confused you,
Ki Echo Ki Alla Na DeixoAnd I’ve got more to show.
Oneireutika Pos Me FylagesI dreamed that you were protecting me,
Mi Gelas Tha Se PnixoDon’t laugh, I’ll choke you.
An Katalaves S’ EroteuomaiIn case you haven’t realized, I’m falling in love with you,
Me Koitas Kai DistazoYou’re looking at me and I’m hesitating.
Eisai Gyro Mou Eisai Mesa MouYou’re all around me, you’re inside of me,
Eisai Edo De S’ ArpazoYou’re right here, but I won’t grab you,
Ma Sto TazoBut I’m swearing it to you,
Ki Einai AgrioAnd it’s wild.
Ki Einai Entono Kai Myrizeis MastichaAnd it’s intense, and you smell like ‘mastic’ resin,
Na ‘rtheis Ki AvrioI want you to come tomorrow too,
Pano Sentono Ta Mallia Sou As EichaI wish I had your hair on my sheets.
YpokrinomaiI’m pretending.
Paizo Theatro Pame Alles Dyo LexeisI’m acting in a play; let’s try two more words,
Den afinomai Ti MartyrioI’m not surrendering; what a torture,
Tosi Agapi Na KrypseisTo hide so much love,
Echo TypseisI feel guilty.
Kai Mperdeutika Kai Se MperdepsaAnd I got confused, and I confused you,
Ki Echo Ki Alla Na DeixoAnd I’ve got more to show,
Oneireutika Pos Me FylagesI dreamed that you were protecting me,
Mi Gelas Tha Se PnixoDon’t laugh, I’ll choke you.
An Katalaves S’ EroteuomaiIn case you haven’t realized, I’m falling in love with you,
Me Koitas Kai DistazoYou’re looking at me and I’m hesitating,
Eisai Gyro Mou Eisai Mesa MouYou’re all around me, you’re inside of me,
Eisai Edo De S’ ArpazoYou’re right here, but I won’t grab you,
Ma Sto TazoBut I’m swearing it to you,
Kai Mperdeutika Kai Se MperdepsaAnd I got confused, and I confused you,
Ki Echo Ki Alla Na DeixoAnd I’ve got more to show,
Oneireutika Pos Me FylagesI dreamed that you were protecting me,
Mi Gelas Tha Se PnixoDon’t laugh, I’ll choke you.
An Katalaves S’ EroteuomaiIn case you haven’t realized, I’m falling in love with you,
Me Koitas Kai DistazoYou’re looking at me and I’m hesitating,
Eisai Gyro Mou Eisai Mesa MouYou’re all around me, you’re inside of me,
Eisai Edo De S’ ArpazoYou’re right here, but I won’t grab you,
Ma Sto TazoBut I’m swearing it to you.
