Greek Lyrics: Accordion

by Vassilis Papakonstantinou

English

In my old neighbourhood I had a friend
who knew and played the accordion
when he sang, he was like the sun
fires in his hands were ignited by the accordion

But at one dark night, like every other night
he kept look-outs, playing the accordion
fascist vans stood next to the pen
and a gunfire stopped the accordion

The already started watchword always comes back to me
whenever I hear again an accordion
and it has, like a stamp, marked my life
'fascism will not prevail!'
