Petros Peter Gaitanos - I told you and I'll tell you again

I told you and I’ll tell you again
Don’t go down to the shore
The shore has violent waves
And it takes you on a walk
And if it takes me, where will it take me
Down to the deep water
I make my body a boat,
my arms paddles,
My scarf a sail
I come and go from the mainland
I told you and I’ll tell you again
Don’t send me letters
Because I can’t read
And I begin to cry
