HAKOLOT SHEL PIREUS

Al gabey kise no'ach

Chorus:
Hakolot shel Pireus

At niret ko yafa

Venisa im haru'ach
Rea'ch melach udvash
Min hayam hapatu'ach

Chorus...

THE VOICES OF PIREUS

On a deck chair,
faint from the heat,
I feel like running away
On the wings of the dream,

To an unknown bay
with a deserted island,
a calm small village
across from the Mediterranean sea.

Chorus:
The voices of Pireus
remind me of Haifa,
With a bottle of Matheus
you look so beautiful.

Let the sun shine
over white houses
and let the heart be happy
like then in Greece.

A cloud in the sky
sails in silence,
the blue colour of the water
penetrates into the soul.

The wind carries
smell of salt and honey
From the open sea
comes a new song comes from the open sea.

Chorus...
