SOAS Rebetiko Band - Istanbul - 15 March 2019 - Yedi Kule

Описание: We performed at the municipal cultural centre in Atasehir, Istanbul on the evening of Friday 15 March. A magnificent 500-seater concert hall, and every seat taken. Our audience was enthusiastic and responsive - many people knew our songs and sang along with us (also because we perform in both Greek and Turkish). At the end of the concert they gave us a standing ovation, and on all sides the gig was accounted a great success. Special thanks to the colleagues in Istanbul who made this concert possible. We plan to return in March 2020.

ΓΕΝΤΙ ΚΟΥΛΕ

[Πέντε χρόνια δικασμένος]

Words / Lyrics: Vangelis Papazoglou

Πέντε χρόνια δικασμένος, μέσα στο Γεντί Κουλέ [x2]
Από το πολύ σεκλέτι το ’ριξα στον ναργιλέ [x2]

Φύσα, ρούφα, τράβα τονε, πάτα τονε κι άναφτόνε
Φύλα τσίλιες για τους βλάχους, κείνους τους δεσμοφυλάκους

Κι άλλα τόσα ξεχασμένος από σένανε καλέ [x2]
για παρηγοριά οι μάγκες μου πατουσαν ναργιλέ [x2]

Φύσα, ρούφα, τράβα τονε...

Τώρα που ’χω ξεμπουκάρει μέσα απ’ το Γεντί Κουλέ [x2]
γέμωσε τον ναργιλέ μας, να φουμάρουμε καλέ [x2]

Φύσα, ρούφα, τράβα τονε...
Φύλα τσίλιες για τ’ αλάνι, έρχονται δυο πολισμάνοι

TURKISH VERSION

Haber uçtu devlete de beş yıl yattım hapiste
Yedi düvel zindanından beterdir yedikule

Nargilem duman duman ah bayıldım aman aman
Istanbul güzel ama sahipleri pek yaman

Beş yıl bana yaraştı da nargilem buna şaştı
Her gün çizdim usturamla baðlamam doldu taşdı

Sarma cigaram yanar çekerim ağır ağır
Tekkemiz güzel ama haber uçuranlar var

Nargilemin marpucu da gümüştendir gümüşten
Beş deği onbeş yıl olsa ben vaz geçmem bu işten

Nargilem duman duman ah bayıldım aman aman
Istanbul güzel ama sahipleri pek yaman
