Instead of silence, mothers prefer signing to overpower the children with music, like the cure for Bacchic frenzy. - Plato, Laws 790d-e
"Sarah's Melody" is an original melody composed by Thanasis Kleopas, the Wandering Melodist, on the ancient lyre and accompanied by Tolis Preponis on the yayli tambur.
It is a lullaby dedicated to young Sarah, encouraging her to shine like a star, lighten the world and the earth's beauties, walk in life without fear, and learn how to let herself go (check the full lyrics at the end of the description).
Thanasis sings and plays on a custom LUTHIEROS ancient lyre, masterfully handcrafted for him in Greece by the Koumartzis family. The video session took place inside the Akron Art Centre, an exquisite art workshop on Santorini Island, Greece.

🇬🇷 🎶 Lyrics in Greek
Πιο πάνω κι απ' τ' αστέρια
Ν' ανεβείς να σταθείς
Το κόσμο ν' αγναντέψεις
Και ν' αποκοιμηθείς
Σαν ήλιος σαν φεγγάρι
Σαν άστρο της αυγής
Το κόσμο να φωτίσεις
Τις ομορφιές της γης
Και στις πλαγιές τ' ονείρου
Σαν βγεις μη φοβηθείς
Στου άνεμου το χάδι
Γλυκά να αφεθείς
Σαν ήλιος...
Και τούτο το τραγούδι
Στο δρόμο σου αν χαθείς
Ας είναι ο οδηγός σου
Πίσω να ξαναρθείς
Σαν ήλιος...
🇬🇧 🎶 Lyrics in English
Higher than the stars
To rise and stand
To look up at the world
And fall asleep
Like the sun, like the moon
Like the star of dawn
Light up the world
and the beauties of the earth
And on the slopes of dreams
When you go out, don't be afraid
In the wind's breeze
Sweetly let yourself go
Like the sun
And this song
If you get lost
Let it be your guide
To show you the way back home
Like the sun...
