Ελένη [Eleni] [English translation]

I see your pale little face

in our photographs,

how much you've grown tired, in a hurry to leave.

You sad little eyes

are like two clouds in the sky,

where are they going to, where are they travelling to?

Eleni, take care to be happy there where you go,

your fate was sealed in this world

on a white paper with a yellow-inked pen

like a tear made from lemon.

I remember how many sunsets

you kept still without saying a word,

you only looked at me and smiled.

I send you this little song of mine

to keep you company

and don't forget to smile at me.

Eleni, take care to be happy there where you go,

your fate was sealed in this world

on a white paper with a yellow-inked pen

like a tear made from lemon.
