I opened my drawer
Άνοιξα το συρτάρι μου
με τα παλιά τεφτέρια
κι απ’ τα πολλά τα χρέη σου
μου κάηκαν τα χέρια
Άνοιξα και την πόρτα μου
σαν ν’ άνοιγα σε σένα
κι ήταν αγέρας και βροχή
και φύλλα σκορπισμένα
Τα χρόνια μου τα βρήκανε
σαν πεταμένα ζάρια
κι ήσουν συ που μ’ έπαιξες
και μ’ έχασες δυο βράδια
Άνοιξα και την πόρτα μου
σαν ν’ άνοιγα σε σένα
κι ήταν αγέρας και βροχή
και φύλλα σκορπισμένα
I opened my drawer
with the old account-books
and by the many debts [you owe me]
my hands were burned.
I also opened my door
as I would open it to you
and there was the wind and the rain
and scattered [autumn] leaves.
[All] my years, they were found
like thrown dice
and you were the one who threw me
and who lost me, two nights.
I also opened my door
as I would open it to you
and there was the wind and the rain
and scattered [autumn] leaves.
