Con Te Partiro, Pote Ksana – Giorgos Dalaras, Marios Frangoulis
Posted on 22. Nov, 2009 in Greek Songs
Giorgos Dalaras and Marios Frangoulis sing Con Te Partiro, a very famous song which means “I’ll go with you”. The song was originally sung by Andrea Bocelli, but here we present the Greek version of the song, which contains both Italian and Greek Lyrics, written by Odysseas Ioannou. The Greek song is named “Pote Ksana”, which means “Never Again”.
The song “Con Te Partiro” is composed by Francesco Sartori and is one of the most famous Italian songs ever written; the original version with Andrea Bocelli was gripping and touching, but here we have the chance to hear one of the best Greek singers, Giorgos Dalaras to sing along with one of our best tenors, Marios Frangoulis. The result, therefore, could not be less fabulous and melodious. The song achieved such a widespread success that a new version came soon after Bocelli released it, sung partly in English, pairing Bocelli with soprano Sarah Brightman, released as “Time to Say Goodbye”.
Music: Francesco Sartori
Lyrics: Lucio Quarantotto – Odysseas Ioannou
Con Te Partiro – Pote Ksana – English Lyrics
When I’m alone
I dream on the horizon
And words fail
Yes, I know there is no light
In a room where the sun is absent
If you are not with me
At the windows
Show everone my heart
Which you set alight
Enclose within me
The light you
Encountered on the street
I’ll go with you
To countries I newer
Saw and shared with you
Now, yes, I shall experience them
I’ll go with you
On ships across seas
Which, I know,
No, no, exist no longer
With you I shall experience them
When you are far away
I dream on the horizon
And words fail
And yes, I know
That you are with me
You, my moon, are here with me
My sun, you are here with me
I’ll go with you
To countries I never
Saw and shared with you
Now, yes, I shall experience them
I’ll go with you
On ships across seas
Which, I know,
No, no, exist no longer
With you I shall experience them again
I’ll go with you
On ships across seas
Which, I know,
No, no, exist no longer
With you I shall experience them again
I’ll go with you
I with you

Con Te Partiro – Ποτέ Ξανά – Μάριος Φραγκούλης, Γιώργος Νταλάρας – Ιταλικοί και Ελληνικοί Στίχοι
Quando sono solo sogno all’orrizzonte
e mancan le parole si lo so che non ce luce
in una stanza quando manca il sole
se non ci sei tu con me, con me su le finestre
mostra a tutti il mio cuore che hai acceso
chiudi dentro me la luce che hai incontrato per strada
Con te partiro paesi che non ho mai
veduto e vissuto con te adesso si li vivro
Con te partiro su navi per mari
che io lo so no no non esistono piu
Con te io li vivro
Con te partiro paesi che non ho mai
veduto e vissuto con te adesso si li vivro
Con te partiro su navi per mari
che io lo so no no non esistono piu
Con te io li vivro
Con te partiro su navi per mari
che io lo so no no non esistono piu
Con te io li vivro
Σαν μικρά παιδιά τα χρόνια τα χεράκια ανοίγουν με τυλίγουν
σε μια νύχτα μεγαλώνουν νιάτα που παλιώνουν πριν να φύγουν
κι ό,τι περνά πια ποτέ-ποτέ
uα μεγαλώσω και μαζί μου θα πάρω ό,τι είχα να δώσω
για ποια χαρά, ποια χαμένη χαρά πάλι θα μετανιώσω
Ποτέ, πια ποτέ, χαρά μου, ποτέ ξανά
αυτά που πονέσαν ποτέ
δε θα γυρίσουν ξανά ποτέ, πια ποτέ
Κι εκείνα που φύγαν, ποτέ ξανά
κι αυτά που θα ‘ρθουνε ποιανού ζωή θα γίνουνε
Όσα ζω θα με νικήσουν τα κεριά θα σβήσουν, θα ξεφύγουν
κι οι αναμνήσεις σαν διαρρήκτες χρόνια ανοίγουν
μπρος τα μάτια μου άλλα μάτια σμίγουν
και το ξέρω πως ξανά ποτέ, ποτέ, ποτέ
Ποτέ, πια ποτέ, χαρά μου, ποτέ ξανά
αυτά που πονέσαν ποτέ
δε θα γυρίσουν ξανά ποτέ, πια ποτέ
Κι εκείνα που φύγαν, ποτέ ξανά
κι αυτά που θα ‘ρθουνε ποιανού ζωή θα γίνου
