Back In Isan!

Flew from Eleftherios Venizelos 'port
Didn't get to bed last night
On the way the orchid flower on my knee
Man, I had an awesome flight.

And now I'm back in Isan!
You don't know how lucky you are, boy (how VERY lucky!)
Now you're back in Isan!

Though I've been away, never forgot the place
Gee, it's good to be back home!
Leave it till tomorrow to unpack my case
Honey, teach me jup and hom.

Now I'm back in Isan!
You don't know how lucky you are, boy
Back in fantastic,
Back in majestic,
Back in lovely Isan!

Well, the Nakhon girls really knock me out
They leave the West behind (WAY behind!)
And Loei girls make me sing and sout:
That Udon's always on my mi- mi- mi- mi- mi- mi- mi- mi- mi- mind!

Show me round your serpent-crawling ricefields
Teach me a new word every day
Cook me once again that ultra-spicy dish
Come, let's have sanouk today.

Now I'm back in Isan!
You don't know how lucky you are, boy
Now you're back in Isan!

  1. "Dude! Welcome back"
    The Isanites hail
    Welcome back i hail to you too
    for the distance was small
    but the time was long

    Dude! Welcome back
    If that's back for good
    or (heck!) welcome back no matter what.

  2. Μερσί, φίλε μου! Θα δείξει, ακόμα τα πράγματα είναι ρευστά, όμως μάλλον για καλό πρέπει να είναι, τελικά.

Αδερφέ, δεν ξέρω τούτο το φεγγάρι
Στης καρδιάς της άδειας τη φυρονεριά
Πούθε τάχει φέρει, πούθε τάχει πάρει
Φωτεινά στην άμμο, χνάρια σαν κεριά.
