Στίχοι: Μάνος Χατζιδάκις
Μουσική: Μάνος Χατζιδάκις
Πρώτη εκτέλεση: Μελίνα Μερκούρη
Lyrics: Manos Hadjidakis
Music: Manos Hadjidakis
First performance: Melina Mercouri
Normal irregular service will be resumed presently. This is just a temporary burst in remembrance of my parents - amateur Hellenophiles but semipro Nana-nuts.
I'm not much past the ena dio tria tessera level of modern Greek that they achieved, sadly - but the sound of these words is long embedded, so I'm having a go at the lyrics as sung here. Chorus coming first seems somewhat unusual, and aware that the second verse Ms. Mercouri muttered is missing. But this was originally 1968 BBC primetime, so shortening understandable.
All together now...
Όσο κι αν ψάξω, δεν βρίσκω άλλο λιμάνι
τρελή να με 'χει κάνει, όσο τον Πειραιά
Που όταν βραδιάζει, τραγούδια μ' αραδιάζει
και τις πενιές του αλλάζει, γεμίζει από παιδιά
Aπ' το παράθυρό μου στέλνω
ένα δύο και τρία και τέσσερα φιλιά
που φτάνουν στο λιμάνι
ένα και δύο και τρία και τέσσερα πουλιά
Πώς ήθελα να είχα ένα και δύο
και τρία και τέσσερα παιδιά
που σαν θα μεγαλώσουν όλα
θα γίνουν λεβέντες για χάρη του Πειραιά
Corrections welcomed. λεβέντες seems a particularly interesting term. Sorry about the digital blip in the intro and the modern Beeb's idea of necessary captioning and graphical glitz.

Beautiful Song I remember hearing long ago in Never on Suday. These Greek songs really have something to them and they are so different from what one usually hears. I don't speak or understand Greek but I like the songs and the music.

Questa canzone è la più bella di tutte, e il video pure. Non i grandi concerti coi tenori, noiosissimi, questa è la vera Nana. Nana qui è favolosa, fisicamente anche, con quel sorriso da far perdere i sensi ed i capezzoli duri e appuntiti. Cos'avrei dato perché fosse mia. Tre volte il giro attorno alla Luna e 4 attorno a Saturno, a piedi,,,, Perché si sia divisa da suo marito non l'ho ancora capito.

Glad you like this clip of Nana The guitarist is George (or Yorgos in Greek) Petsilas, Nana's first husband and leader of the group. George and his friends were singing in night clubs before they joined up with Nana and became her official backing group. The group changed members after a number of years until Nana and George separated, when the group finally disbanded. I absolutely loved all their collaborations and thought her best years were when singing with the original Athenians.

This is simply wonderful. Brings back fond memories of my one-week tour of Greece in 2006. Aboard a ship on a quick tour of the Greek isles of Hydra, Poros and Angina, I can still vividly remember two friendly Greek dancers, a gentleman and a lady, teaching me the basic steps of this graceful dance, with bouzuoki players doing the music. Thank you for taking me back to Greece, my favorite country, through this posting.

This song "The Children of Piraeus" written by Manos Xatzidakis won the Academy Award for Best Original Song in 1960 and Melina Mercouri won the award for Best Actress at the 1960 Cannes Film Festival for the movie "Never on Sunday".. Lyrics: Through my window, I am sending one, two, three and four kisses that reach in the port one, two, three and four birds Oh, if only I had one, two and three and four boys that when they would grow up, they would become fine men for the sake of Piraeus However I try, I cannot find another port to drive me crazy, like Piraeus does That when it gets dark, it is full of songs and changes the sounds of the strings, it is flooded by boys As soon as I cross my threshold there is no one I do not love and when I sleep in the night, I know that- I know that- I know that I will dream of him Ι wear gemstones on my neck and one- and one- and one bead as a charm because throughout the nights, I expect to find someone stranger However I try, I cannot find another port to drive me crazy, like Piraeus does That when it gets dark, it is full of songs and changes the sounds of the strings, it is flooded by boys

So many of our maternal (Escaped from the Ottoman empire.) Greek ancestors lived in the slums of Piraeus during the late 1800s and very early 20th century but when in 1915, our great, great-aunt Marika Papagika, was discovered in Alexandria Egypt; brought to America life changed for some of us... [The guitar player George, is her husband and the leader of this band the Athenians from Athens, Greece.]
