One long song, with diffuse sweetness and pain, an expression of happiness, a joy and promise of protection: "Come Sleep, sweet and light, come and get my baby, I give it little to you, bring it back great to me".
Grandmother Alexandra, Christina and grandfather Vassilis
When she was ready to lull me she started something like this: "Nani (sleep) my child now will do." I closed both eyes and I still hear her with 14 ears.

Touched her fingers to my chin and whispered "little chin" caressed my mouth and said, "little mouth" momentarily and closed both nostrils and I heard the "two little holes" waited for the touch on my eyes for the "two little lights", shortly after followed telling my eyebrows "glued two cordons" and the game ended with two gently blows in the right and left cheek "one Simitzis in the City (a bagel merchant in Town), one Sutsis at Galatas (a water merchant in Galatas)".

He is singing the words like a cantor in a church and this hymn sounds like it had big success. After all, my grandfather liked it because he was singing a lot, as he was fond of Byzantine
