In 1957, she recorded her first song, in both Greek and English, meeting a Greek composer that offered to write songs for her.

In 1965, NANA MOUSKOURI recorded her second English-language album in the United States, entitled Nana Sings. American singer Harry Belafonte heard and liked the album. Belafonte brought Mouskouri on tour with him through 1966. After a year, she had her first appearance at Paris’ legendary Olympia concert theatre. In 1979, she released another English-language album (Roses and Sunshine), consisting of folk and country material.

WHITE ROSES FROM ATHENS – Until the white rose blooms again you must leave me, leave me lonely. So goodbye my love until then until the white rose blooms again. The summer days are ending in the valley and soon the time will come when we must be apart, but like the rose that comes back with the springtime, you will return to me when springtime comes around, until the white rose blooms again. You must leave me, leave me lonely. So goodbye my love until then until the white rose blooms again, until the white rose blooms again you must leave me, leave me lonely. So goodbye my love till then, till the white rose blooms again. Goodbye until then. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lyloJbqHq6s
