Do you know this singer/song?

[Armenian]

Χάρις Αλεξίου - Κύματα?
Could you please tell me what's it about?

[Ellinas]

I don't know found the lyrics on the internet, I will translate the song for you. The title κύματα means "Waves" and the song is sand by Haris Alexiou. Music is by Thanos Mikroutsikos and lyrics are by Lina Nikolakopoulou.

Κύματα

Μου διώξαν τους αγγέλους οι σάλπιγγες του τέλους
της πιο καινούργιας εποχής και παίρνω δρόμους της βροχής

Λόγια φοράω μεταλλικά και στα τραγούδια μου αντηχούνε
Πράγματα τόσο ελληνικά μόνο που δεν αντιστοιχούνε

Κύματα πιάνω, ταξιδεύω κι όλο τον κόσμο κυριεύω
μ’ ένα φευγάτο ερωτισμό κι ένα λιμάνι για δεσμό
Κύματα πιάνω, ταξιδεύω κι όλο τον κόσμο κυριεύω
μ’ ένα παράταιρο καημό κι ένα λιμάνι για δεσμό

Μου διώξαν τις αρμύρες του κύκλου οι λάθος μοίρες
Μου βούλιαξε κι η Γκιουλμπαχάρ και κάνω δίσκους για ραντάρ

Λόγια μαζεύω γυαλικά που για τον έρωτα ραγίζουν
κι έτσι μπορώ συμβολικά να γίνω εκείνο που απελπίζουν

Κύματα πιάνω, ταξιδεύω...

Translation

The angels were turned away from me, by the trumpets of the end
of the newest era, and now I am taking the paths of the rain.

I am wearing metallic words and in my songs things are echoing,
things which are "very" Hellenic, but they don't correspond to each other.

I am catching waves, I am travelling and I am ruling the whole world,
with an alternative eroticism and with a port as a bond.
I am catching waves, I am travelling and I am ruling the whole world,
with an incompatible worry and a port as a bond.

The salties were turned away from me, by the wrong fates of the circle.
My Gülbahar sank and now I use disks for a radar.

I am collecting words made by glass that are cracking for Love,
and this way I can symbolically become the thing they bring to despair.

I am catching waves, I am travelling...............

Personally I didn't knew this song. After the first looks I am not sure about its meaning....

Thank you so much for this great work.
I'll use this song in one of my videos.
