O anthropos mou – Haris Alexiou

Posted on 20. Nov, 2009 in Greek Songs

Haris Alexiou sings “O anthropos mou” a lovely Greek song which translates to “My man” in English.

O anthropos mou is a new song, from the latest album released by Haris Alexiou a few days ago. Alexiou wrote the lyrics and composed the music herself. Whenever she releases a new album, she manages to attract attention, as most of her fans and the Greek audience anticipates for some lovely new songs; and of course she didn’t disappoint us this time either. The new album contains some real gems, as this song featured here.

O anthropos mou is a song bearing the sensitivity – trademark of Haroula’s writing. It is a song about the “ideal” person, the man we want to have on our sides. The person who loves us, who tells us the things we want and need to hear, who is on our side and supports us with his clean words. A person who allows us to be ourselves.

Is there such thing as a perfect man or person? Probably not, but each one of us can find what he needs in someone; this person will come once…

O anthropos mou – English Lyrics

A time will come
when I will have a feeling of belonging
A clean man will come – like the light
and I will be his shadow
he will hold my hand tight
and bring me nothing but clean words

If I could only meet a man who says yes and means it
Whose smile is there even when I turn my head away
His words would be made of gold
he would have pride and honor
Day and night I’ ll always win the bet
I’d look in his eyes and still be myself
I’d say and mean it that he is my man

Though i have suffered much
I can delete all that at once
And give myself to him
Surrender – even if I will cry again
If he could bring just for once
A couple of clean words into my empty hands

O anthropos mou – Greek Lyrics
