Fata Morgana
Mario Frangoulis Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A aparut in drumul meu
Cea mai frumoasa fata
Pe care am vazut-o vreodata
M-am prins ca nu-i un vis
Abia cand usile s-au inchis
Nu-i stiu numele, nici numarul de telefonAm ramas singur pe peron
Stralucea ca o stea
Mergea de parca plutea
Am intalnit dragostea
La metrou
A intrat in capul meu
Si imi place atat de rau
Cum fac sa o vad din nou
Pe fata de la metrou
Oare, oare ce pot sa fac eu
Sa o vad din nou
Pe fata de la metrou
M-am indragostit de ea atat de rau
Si o caut mereu
Pe fata de la metrou
Oare, oare ce pot sa fac eu
Sa o vad din nou
Pe fata de la metrou
M-am indragostit de ea atat de rau
Si o caut mereuPe fata de la metrou
Se pare ca nu poate sa ma ajute nimeni
Nu o gasesc, a vazut-o cineva, oricine
Stralucea ca o stea
Mergea de parca plutea
Am intalnit dragostea
La metrou
A intrat in capul meu
Si imi place atat de rau
Cum fac sa o vad din nou
Pe fata de la metrou
Oare, oare ce pot sa fac eu
Sa o vad din nou
Pe fata de la metrou
M-am indragostit de ea atat de rau
Si o caut mereu
Pe fata de la metrou
Oare, oare ce pot sa fac eu
Sa o vad din nou
Pe fata de la metrou
M-am indragostit de ea atat de rau
Si o caut mereu
Pe fata de la metrou
Stralucea ca o stea
Mergea de parca plutea
Am intalnit dragostea
La metrou
A intrat in capul meu
Si imi place atat de rau
Cum fac sa o vad din nou
Pe fata de la metrou
Oare, oare ce pot sa fac eu
Sa o vad din nou
Pe fata de la metrou
M-am indragostit de ea atat de rau
Si o caut mereu
Pe fata de la metrou
Oare, oare ce pot sa fac eu
Sa o vad din nou
Pe fata de la metrou
M-am indragostit de ea atat de rau
Si o caut mereu
Pe fata de la metrou
The lyrics to "Fata Morgana" by Mario Frangoulis tell the story of a man who falls in love with a beautiful woman he sees on the subway. He describes her as the most beautiful girl he has ever seen, and he realizes that she is not just a dream when the subway doors close behind her. He doesn't know her name or phone number and is left alone on the platform. He can't stop thinking about her and desperately wants to see her again, but he doesn't know how to find her. The chorus repeats his longing to see her again and the hopelessness he feels in not being able to find her.
The song's title refers to a type of mirage that creates an optical illusion of a lake or water source in the desert. This metaphor reflects the man's situation, as he feels like he saw something impossible or fleeting that he can't quite grasp.
Overall, the song captures the universal experience of falling in love with a stranger and feeling powerless in your pursuit of them. The subway setting adds a sense of urgency and transience to the encounter, as the man fears he may never see her again.

Azi, la metrou
Today, at the subway
A aparut in drumul meu
The most beautiful girl appeared in my way
Cea mai frumoasa fata
The most beautiful girl
Pe care am vazut-o vreodata
That I have ever seen
M-am prins ca nu-i un vis
I realized it wasn't a dream
Abia cand usile s-au inchis
Only when the doors closed
Nu-i stiu numele, nici numarul de telefon
I don't know her name or phone number
Am ramas singur pe peron
I was left alone on the platform
Stralucea ca o stea
She shone like a star
Mergea de parca plutea
She walked as if she was floating
Am intalnit dragostea
I met love
La metrou
At the subway
Oare, oare ce pot sa fac eu
I wonder, I wonder what I can do
Sa o vad din nou
To see her again
M-am indragostit de ea atat de rau
I fell in love with her so bad
Si o caut mereu
And I always look for her
Se pare ca nu poate sa ma ajute nimeni
It seems no one can help me
Nu o gasesc, a vazut-o cineva, oricine
I can't find her, has anyone seen her, anyone

Ένα πανέμορφο ποιήμα από τον αθάνατο και προσωπικά αγαπημένο μου ποιητή, Καββαδία ερμηνευμένο από έναν απίστευτο ερμηνευτή τον Φραγκούλη και με απίστευτη ανατριχιαστική μουσική και τέλεια λόγια.

@AlbionsClouds
This poem has many levels of interpretation, Kavvadias is a real Bard, he is revealing inner archetypes about the journey of humanity in the realms of perception, through the aesthetic pain to be alive and feel. Your imagery and the fine translation contribute to a better comprehension as well the choice of the particular singer! *****
