De me ftiahnun ta lefta
De me ftiahnun ta stolidia
De me ftiahnun ta taxidia
De me ftiahni tipota

The song "Vaterlo" by Anna Vissi talks about the things that don't matter to the singer, such as doors, money, materialistic items, trips, and anything else that doesn't involve her beloved. She says she doesn't care about those things, but only cares about her love, which she calls her Waterloo (in Greek, "Vaterlo"). She goes on to say that she's content with her love, and doesn't need anything else to be happy. The chorus repeats that she only cares about her love and that it is her Waterloo, but she remains indifferent about the rest of the things that people usually care about.
Throughout the song, the lyrics use the phrase "De me niazi" ("I don't care") to emphasize the detachment that the singer feels towards anything that does not involve her love. The song's title "Vaterlo" comes from the phrase "to have found one's Waterloo," meaning to encounter a final defeat or downfall, which in this case is her love. The song's message is about the power of love and how it can make everything else seem unimportant in comparison.
