Tou Erota To Fos
Kostas Makedonas Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Όλα γύρω θυμίζουν εσένα
Και τα μάτια σου τα φλογισμένα
Αχ έρωτά μου βροχή
Αλήθεια μου κι ευχή
Σαν παλιά ενοχή
Για μιαν αγάπη χαμένη

Αχ έρωτά μου καημέ

Του πόθου μου αητέ
Ή τώρα ή ποτέ

Δώσ' μου φωσ του έρωτα το φωσ
Να νιώσω σαν θεόσ
Ν' ανάψει η βραδιά
Πεσ μου πώσ να σε ξεχάσω πώσ
Που ήσουν ουρανόσ
Και ξαστεριά

Πόσεσ νύχτεσ χαμένεσ στο ψέμα
Και τραγούδια με λόγια θλιμμένα
Αχ έρωτά μου γιορτή
Ανάσα μου κι αρχή
Δώσ' μου εσύ την πνοή
Γιατί είναι η μοίρα μου ξένη

Αχ έρωτά μου καημέ
Του πόθου μου αητέ
Ή τώρα ή ποτέ

Δώσ' μου φωσ του έρωτα το φωσ
Να νιώσω σαν θεόσ
Ν' ανάψει η βραδιά
Πεσ μου πώσ να σε ξεχάσω πώσ

Που ήσουν ουρανόσ
Και ξαστεριά

The opening lines set the tone of the song, as everything around reminds the singer of this person, especially their fiery eyes. The singer refers to their love as rain, symbolizing both the intensity and sorrow that it brings. They describe it as a lost love, like an old guilt that still lingers.

The chorus repeats the yearning of the singer, expressing the intensity of their desire. They plead for the light of love to shine on them and to feel like a god, igniting the night. They ask for guidance on how to forget this person, who was like their sky and brightness.
