Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Gia ta vradia pu sta matia me kitages
Gia tis ores pu sto stoma me filages
Gia to esthima pu kapote niosame
Ke gia ekina pu pote den teliosame
Ego niotho, ego niotho

Nostalgia stin kardia mu
Pu den ise pia konda mu
Nostalgia na se nioso
Ke istera as telioso

Nostalgia stin kardia mu
Pu den ise pia konda mu
Nostalgia na se nioso
Ke istera as telioso

Pali idromeni mes ston ipno mu petagome
Pali ton idio efialti apopse vlepo
Pali sto tiho i skia su diagrafete
Ke i leptodihtes sto roloi tis kardias mu
Stamata me

Gia ta vradia pu sta matia me kitages
Gia tis ores pu sto stoma me filages
Gia to esthima pu kapote niosame
Ke gia ekina pu pote den teliosame
Ego niotho, ego niotho

Nostalgia stin kardia mu
Pu den ise pia konda mu
Nostalgia na se nioso
Ke istera as telioso

Nostalgia stin kardia mu
Pu den ise pia konda mu
Nostalgia na se nioso
Ke istera as telioso

Nostalgia, nostalgia
Nostalgia, nostalgia

Gia ta vradia pu sta matia me kitages
Gia tis ores pu sto stoma me filages
Gia to esthima pu kapote niosame
Ke gia ekina pu pote den teliosame
Ego niotho, ego niotho

Nostalgia stin kardia mu
Pu den ise pia konda mu
Nostalgia na se nioso
Ke istera as telioso

Nostalgia stin kardia mu
Pu den ise pia konda mu
Nostalgia na se nioso
Ke istera as telioso
