Thanasis Kleopas, the Wandering Melodist, performs for us an old lullaby from Minor Asia, a place where many Greeks were forced to leave behind a century ago. The song is called “My Sweet Pearl“, or in Greek “Μαργαριταρένια μου“, and its lyrics are so poetic that it is too difficult to explain to any other language.
Thanasis plays in his unique way the melody on his custom ancient lyre, lovingly handcrafted by LUTHIEROS Master Luthier, Anastasios.

🎶 Lyrics in Greek
Όσα άστρα είναι στον ουρανό, μαργαριταρένια μου,
και λάμπουν ένα ένα, και λάμπουν ένα ένα,
τόσες φορές τα μάτια μου, μαργαριταρένια μου, δακρύσανε για σένα, δακρύσανε για σένα.
Άιντε, καλέ μάνα, αγάπα με κι εμένα, κούνει, καλέ μάνα, το παιδί για μένα…
Αναστενάζω, δε μ’ ακούς, μαργαριταρένια μου,
κλαίω, δε με λυπάσαι, κλαίω δε με λυπάσαι.
Άιντε, καλέ μάνα, αγάπα με κι εμένα, κούνει, καλέ μάνα, το παιδί για μένα…
Δεν είσαι μάνας γέννημα, μαργαριταρένια μου,
ούτε Θεό φοβάσαι, ούτε Θεό φοβάσαι.
Άιντε, καλέ μάνα, αγάπα με κι εμένα, κούνει, καλέ μάνα, το παιδί για μένα…
Άιντε, καλέ μάνα, αγάπα με κι εμένα, κούνει, καλέ μάνα, το παιδί για μένα…
