Mes tin nichtia chorevoen, ta dio pedia
Pinoen ke tragoedoene olo me chara

Mes tin nichtia chorevoen, ta dio pedia
Pinoen ke tragoedoene olo me chara

Mes tin nichtia chorevoen, ta dio pedia
Pinoen ke tragoedoene olo me chara




Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Tol & Tol's song "Sedalia" describe a scene in which two children are dancing joyously in the night while drinking and singing. The phrase "Mes tin nichtia chorevoen, ta dio pedia" means "In the night they dance, the two children," emphasizing their youth and carefree nature. The next line, "Pinoen ke tragoedoene olo me chara," means "They drink and sing with joy," highlighting the exuberance of the children. This repetition of the same two lines throughout the song serves to reinforce the innocence and happiness of this moment.


However, there is also a nostalgic and perhaps bittersweet quality to these lyrics. The use of "mes" instead of "me" as the preposition for "in the night" creates a sense of distance, as if the singer is looking back on this moment from some point in the future. Additionally, the use of the past tense - "they danced," "they drank," "they sang" - suggests that this is a memory rather than a current reality. Thus, while the scene is one of carefree joy, there is a sense of loss and longing that underlies the lyrics and adds depth to the song.

@@AMAN2150 Hallo AMAN, noch besser als Sedalia gefällt mir eigentlich der Titel Eleni von Tol & Tol.
Falls es Sie interessieren sollte, schicke ich Ihnen dazu meine Übersetzung.
Mit den besten Grüßen von Eckart Keller.

Eléni = Ελένη = Helena

Ελένη
Τώρα αγαπημένο, σε κοιτώ και σκέφτομαι
Καρδιά μου, μή φοβάσαι, δεν σε ξεχνώ ποτέ
Αντίο αγαπημένο

Helena
Ich sehe dich jetzt an, mein Geliebter, und denke an dich.
Hab keine Angst mein Herz, ich werde dich niemals vergessen.
Auf Wiedersehen, mein Geliebter!
