ENIGMA
   MY RIDDLE
 

Oli me rotoun pos boro sti zoi mou
ke pao dihos na vrisko akri

Pos den vazo ke ego mia taksi
ke zo mia sto yelio ke mia sto dakri


Oomos ksero kala pos antehi
i agapi i treli pou sto agnosto trehi

i agapi pou sinehia rotai
sigouria den zitai
ke apantisis den ehi

Chorus X 2
Enigam mou, Enigma,
vasano mou pouho agapisi
Enigma mou, Enigma,
pou pote mou den tha vro mia lisi

Leo pali parakseno
pragma mia stasi pote i zoi na min kani ola
fevgoune ola pernane,
karavi harai ke limani den piani

Omos ksero kala pos antexi
i agapi i treli pou sto agnosto trehi

i agapi pou sinehia rotai
sigouria den zitai
ke apantisis den ehi

Chorus X 4
Enigam mou, Enigma,
vasano mou pouho agapisi
Enigma mou, Enigma,
pou pote mou den tha vro mia lisi

Every one asks me how do I go on with my life
without finding meaning.

Why don't I put some order in my life also?
And live (instead) sometimes in tears and
sometimes in laughter

But I know well how it endures, crazy love,
love that runs for the unknown

Love that constantly asks,
comfort does not need
and answers does not have

Chorus X 2
My Enigma, Enigma,
my suffering (torture) I fell in love with
My Enigma, Enigma,
(it seems) that I will never find a solution

I say again,
strange thing life doesn't stop moving
All things leave, go, pass, (like a) ship
(that) comes in the bay but does not stay

But I know well how it can last, crazy love,
love that runs for the unknown

Love that constantly asks,
comfort does not need
and answers does not have

Chorus X 4
 My Enigma, Enigma,
my suffering (torture) I fell in love with
My Enigma, Enigma,
(it seems) that I will never find a solution

Portugese translation
ENIGMA
Todos me indagam como continuo a viver
sem encontrar um significado
Porque não ponho minha vida em ordem também
e em vez disso vivo algumas vezes em lágrimas
outras, às gargalhadas.

Mas sei bem o quanto isto pode durar, louco amor
Amor que se dirige para o desconhecido
amor que indaga constantemente
que não precisa de conforto e não dá respostas.

CORO(2X):
Meu enigma, enigma
meu suplício sinto no amor com
meu enigma, enigma
acho que jamais encontrarei a solução.

Digo novamente, coisas estranhas
não param de acontecer em minha vida.
Elas partem, vão, passam como um navio
que aporta na baía mas não permanece.

Mas sei bem o quanto ...

CORO (4X): ....
