Malloura song

mp3 download

Mesaoria's ornament
Our gold of the Plain,
You linger in my heart.

You are for me, from now on,
an ornament in all the world,
that beautifies Creation.

And my heart delights
That they came and resurrected you,
Like a bride they decked you,
My ancient Malloura.

And my soul delights,
My mind, my body.
You are my dreams,
My ancient Malloura.

You beautify theTwo-hill mount

And shine and glow
So all envy you.

To have so much beauty
All the villages want
And everybody praises you.

And my heart delights
That they came and resurrected you,

Like a bride they decked you
My ancient Malloura

And my soul delights,
My mind, my body.
You are my dreams,
My ancient Malloura

In the summertime evenings,
At the sun's dipping,

You lie down, rest for good.

And with the mounts as company
And the Archangelšs church
You resurrect memories.

And my heart delights
That they came and resurrected you,
Like a bride they decked you
My ancient Malloura

And my soul delights,
My mind, my body

You are my dreams
My ancient Malloura
My ancient Malloura.
