"Τhe nightingales of the East"
=====

νὰ κόψω μῆλο τῆς φιλιᾶς, κυδώνι τῆς ἀγάπης

βασιλικὸν ἐπότιζεν νὰ ποίση ὡραῖο στεφάνι,
νὰ τὸ φορέσ᾿ ἡ λυγερὴ τρεῖς ἑορτὲς τοῦ χρόνου"

We notice that the same opening verse, the same theme and the same melodical lines exist in nowadays folk songs of the area of Thrace. In the notation of Xiropotamou 262 is obvious the effort made to present in a more melodious way the endings of phrases [...]"
