♬ Lyrics

Enas galanos uranos
Ki amudhia hrisi i kardhia mu
Ke mes' ta onira mu
Ola tora yinonde horos
Makrino nisi ksotiko
Pu ehis san krimeno luludhi
Sto kathe su tragudhi
Rythmiko, melodhiko skopo
Tora, tora zo, tora mono zo
Zo afta pu zusa sta onira mu
Tora, tora zo, tora mono zo
Tora zo ke s' eho stin kardhia mu
Tragudhane hilia pulia
Ki eyine o kosmos fiesta
T' asteria tora dhes ta
Yinonde olotherma filia
Pezi to fengari krifto
Ke horevi pano sto kima
Ola piyenun prima
San ena hamoyelo gliko
Tora, tora zo, tora mono zo
Zo afta pu zusa sta onira mu
Tora, tora zo, tora mono zo
Tora zo ke s' eho stin kardhia mu
Ola, ola, ola yia horo
Musiki, traguthi ke rythmo
Nana nanana…
Ola, ola, ola yia horo
Musiki, traguthi ke rythmo
Nana nanana…
Tora, tora zo, tora mono zo
Zo afta pu zusa sta onira mu
Tora, tora zo, mono tora zo
Tora zo ke s' eho stin kardhia mu
Tora, tora zo, tora mono zo
Zo afta pu zusa sta onira mu
Tora, tora zo, mono, mono zo
Tora zo ke s' eho ѕtin kardhiа mu
