KALOMOIRA - KALOMIRA- MY SECRET COMBINATION - GREECE EUROVISION SONG CONTEST 2008 - FINAL
Καλομοιρα - Καλομοίρα
LYRICS:
Can you see it? Can you see it,
you have to discover me.
What goes wrong when I am crying,
what I want when I'm smiling.
Can you feel it? Can you feel it,
that I'm not a little girl,
you're misunderstanding my way,
and all the roles that I like to play.
My secret combination,
it's a mystery for you.
Use your imagination,
I'm not easy but I'm true!
My secret combination.
Boy you have to try it hard,
to win a destination,
in the center of my heart!
An open book, an open book,
well, I'm sorry, I am not!
Sometimes I'm acting like a lady,
sometimes woman, sometimes baby
My secret combination,
it's a mystery for you.
Use your imagination,
I'm not easy but I'm true!
My secret combination.
Boy you have to try it hard,
to win a destination,
in the center of my heart!

Can you see it?
Can you see it?
You have to discover me
What goes wrong when I am crying
Or what I want when I 'm smiling
Can you feel it?
Can you feel it?
That I 'm not a little girl
You 're misunderstanding my way
And all the roles that I like to play
My secret combination
It 's a mystery for you
Use your imagination
I 'm not easy but I 'm true
My secret combination
Boy you have to try it hard
To win a destination
In the center of my heart
An open book
An open book
Well I 'm sorry I am not
Sometimes I 'm acting like a lady
Sometimes woman, sometimes baby

 | Greece at War
Tags: 1940, Greece, Italy, October, War, WW2
Description:
The Greco-Italian War was a conflict between Italy and Greece from October 28, 1940 to April 6, 1941. It marked the beginning of the Balkans Campaign of World War II.
The song is "Παιδιά της Ελλάδος Παιδιά" (Paidia tis Ellados Paidia), roughly translated into English as "Ye children of Greece". It became our national song in the winter of 1940 & a reminder of our struggle against the Italian invaders. It goes like this (a free translation by me):
"Wondering in the streets,
the mothers seek their children,
who vouched for victory,
when they left them
at the train station.
Yet, for those who are gone,
and have found glory,
mourning is inappropriate
let us be joyful for them.
Chorus:
Ye, children of Greece,
who fight a harsh war
on the mountains,
we pray to the sweet Virgin,
for your safe return.
I say to the women who love
and wake at their thought
and breathe a sigh,
that the bitterness of parting
and the quiver
are incompatible with the honest Greek women.
Ye girls of Zalongon*,
city-girls or village-girls
though we might hurt,
let us say with pride like the Souli women
Chorus:
Ye, children of Greece,
who fight a harsh war
on the mountains,
we pray to the sweet Virgin,
for your safe return.
With the victory laurels,
we're waiting for your return,
children".
*During our war of independence in 1821, near a mountain called Zalongon in Epirus, a Greek village was attacked by the Turks. The Turkish soldiers slew every male they could find. The women and children to avoid their fate (slavery), they joined hands, they danced their last dance and fell of the edge of a cliff on the mountain of Zalongon. There's a song named "the dance of Zalongon" written to honour these women who threw their kids of the edge of the cliff and then leaped to their own deaths and goes like this:
"Have joy and health, ill-fated world. Have joy and health, mountains and streams. But just as the fish can't live on sand, the women of Souli can't live without freedom".
