| ΣΤΡΑΤΙΏΤΗΣ | SOLDIER |
| | |
| Του 'παν θα βάλεις το χακί | They told him, "You will wear the green |
| θα μπεις στην πρώτη τη γραμμή | You'll march in front, proud, lean and mean |
| θα μπεις στην πρώτη τη γραμμή | You'll march in front, proud, lean and mean |
| και ήρωας θα γίνεις | And.. you will be a hero." |
| | |
| Εκείνος δεν μιλάει πολύ | He doesn't really ever speak |
| του 'ναι μεγάλη η στολή | His uniform, it doesn't fit |
| του 'ναι μεγάλη η στολή | The uniform, it doesn't fit |
| και βάσανο οι αρβύλες | The boots.. torture on his feet |
| | |
| Το εμβατήριο που του ‘μαθα να λέει | The marching cadence that I taught him to recite |
| είναι φασιστικό και του 'ρχεται να κλαίει | It is monotonous and makes him want to cry |
| είναι φασιστικό και του 'ρχεται να κλαίει | It is monotonous and makes him want to cry |
| το εμβατήριο που του ‘μαθα να λέει | The marching cadence that I taught him to recite |
| | |
| Δεν του ΄γραφε ποτέ κανείς | No letters ever came from home |
| τις νύχτες ξύπναγε νωρίς | He'd rise up early on his own |
| τις νύχτες ξύπναγε νωρίς | He'd rise up early on his own... |
| και μίλαγε για λάθος | And.. he'd speak of mistakes |
| | |
| Μια μέρα έγινε στουπί | One day he drank till he was gone |
| πέταξε πέρα τη στολή | He threw aside the uniform |
| πέταξε πέρα τη στολή | He threw aside the uniform |
| και έκλαψε μονάχος | And.. cried all alone |
| | |
| Το εμβατήριο που του ‘μαθα να λέει | The marching cadence that I taught him to recite |
| είναι φασιστικό και ντρέπεται να κλαίει | It is monotonous and he's ashamed to cry |
| είναι φασιστικό και ντρέπεται να κλαίει | It is monotonous and he's ashamed to cry |
| το εμβατήριο που του ‘μαθα να λέει | The marching cadence that I taught him to recite |
