Aon Focal Eile Composer(s): Richie Kavanagh Performer(s): Richie Kavanagh; Celtic Harvest
When I was just a lad I used to go to school I'd sit down there in the seat, feeling like a fool The teacher taught us everything, everything we know She had a great big lump of a stick that was bent into a bow
She'd go "Aon focal dar, focal two, focal eile And I not knowing no focal at all She'd go "Aon focal dar, focal two, focal eile And I not knowing no focal at all
She taught how to say all our A.B.C. She showed us how to make little men out of plasticine She taught us how to say our prayers, she taught us right from wrong The only thing about it, we didn't go to school too long
She'd go "Aon focal dar, focal two, focal eile And I not knowing no focal at all She'd go "Aon focal dar, focal two, focal eile And I not knowing no focal at all
She taught us about the history, the Battle of the Boyne And how to play a game with the chestnut and the twine She says "Open up your catechism, learn all that information If you don't get it in your big thick head, you won't get your conformation
She'd go "Aon focal dar, focal two, focal eile And I not knowing no focal at all She'd go "Aon focal dar, focal two, focal eile And I not knowing no focal at all
Well, the days we spent going to school, were the best years of our life Tho' at the time we thought they were full of trouble and strife Now when I'm home on holiday, I'd pass the old school gate I think of the time I spent in there, them times were surely great
She'd go "Aon focal dar, focal two, focal eile And I not knowing no focal at all She'd go "Aon focal dar, focal two, focal eile And I not knowing no focal at all
Despreciado Me Voy
Composer(s): Juan Navarrete
Performer(s): Javier Solís; Lupillo Rivera
Dicen que soy despreciado pero no le aunque
Me voy a llorar al destino de los olvidados donde se pierden los seres más desgraciados tú no supiste quererme por eso voy a perderme adiós del mundo ilusiones adiós crueles corazones nací despreciado Dios sabe por qué
Despreciado me voy despreciado vilmente por ti cuando quieras volver no hallarás un recuerdo de mí
Dios ha de mandar tu castigo para mi venganza para que ruedes perdida sin esperanza después te mande la muerte para que vengas a verme y pagues bien tu pecado y borrando tu pasado nos junte pa' siempre pa' siempre mujer
Despreciado me voy despreciado vilmente por ti cuando quieras volver no hallarás un recuerdo de mí
Mijn Stil Verdriet Composer(s): Pierre Kartner Performer(s): Corry en de Rekels
Mijn stil verdriet, dat weet een ander niet Mijn stil verdriet, omdat hij mij verliet Waar ik ook ben, ik hoor nog vaak z'n stem In al m'n dromen, denk ik nog aan hem
We waren gelukkig, toch wilde je meer dan mij alleen Ik voel me zo eenzaam en heb toch zo'n pijn zonder jou om me heen Toch hoop ik dat jij zonder mij toch gelukkig zal zijn met haar Al zie ik nog steeds in m'n dromen ons vaak bij elkaar
We waren gelukkig, toch wilde je meer dan mij alleen Ik voel me zo eenzaam en heb toch zo'n pijn zonder jou om me heen Toch hoop ik dat jij zonder mij toch gelukkig zal zijn met haar Al zie ik nog steeds in m'n dromen ons vaak bij elkaar
Mijn stil verdriet, dat weet een ander niet Mijn stil verdriet, omdat hij mij verliet Waar ik ook ben, ik hoor nog vaak z'n stem In al m'n dromen, denk ik nog aan hem
Desperation
Composer(s): John Kay
First release by: Steppenwolf - 1968
Rain-drops fall and you feel low Do you ever feel it's useless Do you feel like letting go Well do you ever stop and do you wonder Will the world ever change Yes, well just how long Will it take to have it all re-arranged
Tell me why these things are still the same Tell me why no one can seem to learn from mistakes
Take my hand if you don't know where you're goin' I'll understand--I've lost the way myself Oh, won't you, oh don't take that old road, it leads to nowhere We must return before the clock strikes twelve
Oh, it's so easy to do nothin' when you're busy night and day Take a step in one direction, ooh yeah Take a step the other way So, don't quit tryin' when you stumble Don't give up should you fall Oh, won't you keep on searchin' for the pathway That leads you through the wall
Don't look back or you'll be left behind Don't look back or you will never find peace of mind
Take my hand if you don't know where you're goin' I'll understand, you know I've, I've lost the way myself Now listen here, I don't want to, I don't want to take that old road it leads to nowhere We must return before the clock strikes twelve

Desperado, why don't you come to your senses? You been out ridin' fences for so long now Oh, you're a hard one I know that you got your reasons These things that are pleasin' you Can hurt you somehow Don' you draw the queen of diamonds, boy She'll beat you if she's able You know the queen of heats is always your best bet Now it seems to me, some fine things Have been laid upon your table But you only want the ones that you can't get Desperado, oh, you ain't gettin' no youger Your pain and your hunger, they're drivin' you home And freedom, oh freedom well, that's just some people talkin' Your prison is walking through this world all alone Don't your feet get cold in the winter time? The sky won't snow and the sun won't shine It's hard to tell the night time from the day You're loosin' all your highs and lows Ain't it funny how the feeling goes away? Desperado, why don't you come to your senses? Come down from your fences, open the gate It may be rainin', but there's a rainbow above you You better let somebody love you, before it's too late

Despedida Composer(s): Pedro Flores Performer(s): Javier Solís
Vengo a decirle adiós a los muchachos porque pronto me voy para la guerra, y aunque voy a pelear en otras tierras voy a salvar mi derecho, mi patria y mi fe
Ya yo me despedí de mi adorada y le pedí por Dios que nunca llore que recuerde por siempre mis amores que yo de ella nunca me olvidaré
Sólo me parte el alma y me condena que dejo tan solita a mi mamá mi pobre madrecita que es tan vieja ¿quién en mi ausencia la recordará?
¿Quién me le hará un favor si necesita? ¿Quién la socorrerá si se enfermara? ¿Quién le hablará de mí si preguntara por este hijo que nunca quizá volverá?
¿Quién me le rezará si ella se muere? ¿Quién pondrá una flor en su sepultura? ¿Quién se condolerá de mi amargura si yo vuelvo y no encuentro a mi mamá?
Rode Rozen In De Sneeuw Composer(s): Jean Kluger - Nelly Byl Performer(s): Marva
Ik weet dat het rond Kerstmis was De lucht was grauw Het sneeuwde zacht Maar wij voelden niets van de kou Want jij had mij en ik had jou We stonden voor een bloemenkraam En zagen rode rozen staan Je koos de mooiste uit voor mij En 'k hoor nog altijd hoe je zei
Rode rozen in de sneeuw Rozen rood als vuur Die vertellen jou dat ik van je hou Rode rozen in de sneeuw Rozen rood als vuur Zeggen jou dat ik van je hou
En zonder blozen Nam ik die rozen Die mij beloofden Wat ik geloofde Liefdedromen voor ons twee En jij vertelde Dat ze voorspelden Met liefdewoorden Vurig als rozen Rode rozen in de sneeuw
Jij verdween uit m'n bestaan De rode rozen zijn vergaan Maar toch ben jij bij dag en nacht Niet weg te denken uit m'n hart 'k Vraag aan de bomen in het woud Of jij nog altijd van me houdt Maar ieder takje schudt van nee Dit jaar geen rozen in de sneeuw
Rode rozen in de sneeuw Rozen rood als vuur Die vertellen jou dat ik van je hou Rode rozen in de sneeuw Rozen rood als vuur Zeggen jou dat ik van je hou
Rode rozen in de sneeuw Rozen rood als vuur Die vertellen jou dat ik van je hou Rode rozen in de sneeuw Rozen rood als vuur Zeggen jou dat ik van je hou
Rode rozen in de sneeuw Rozen rood als vuur Die vertellen jou dat ik van je hou Rode rozen in de sneeuw Rozen rood als vuur Zeggen jou dat ik van je hou

Performer(s): Charles Aznavour
and multiple other artists
Désormais On ne nous verra plus ensemble Désormais Mon cur vivra sous les décombres De ce monde qui nous ressemble Et que le temps a dévasté Désormais Ma voix ne dira plus je t'aime Désormais Moi qui voulais être ton ombre Je serai l'ombre de moi-même Ma main de ta main séparée
Jamais plus Nous ne mordrons au même fruit Ne dormirons au même lit Ne referons les mêmes gestes Jamais plus Ne connaîtrons la même peur De voir s'enfuir notre bonheur Et du reste désormais
Désormais Les gens nous verrons l'un sans l'autre Désormais Nous changerons nos habitudes Et ces mots que je croyais nôtres Tu les diras dans d'autres bras Désormais Je garderai ma porte close Désormais Enfermé dans ma solitude Je traînerai parmi les choses Qui parleront toujours de toi
Jamais plus Nous ne mordrons au même fruit Ne dormirons au même lit Ne referons les mêmes gestes Jamais plus Ne connaîtrons la même peur De voir s'enfuir notre bonheur Et du reste désormais
Hey girl how's by you Sing your rock and roll Sing your blues But I'm all right you know I pay my dues Got 'em comin' to me Got 'em comin' to you
I'm gonna try again Don't matter if I win or lose Gonna try again anyway Yes I am, gonna try anyway Yes I will
But I know you You gonna be so cool Ain't gonna try no sweet talkin' I ain't no fool 'Cause I know you love me girl Just like I love you Got my feet on the ground And I know what I got to do
I'm gonna try again Don't matter if I win or lose Gonna try again anyway Yes I will, gonna try anyway Yes I will
Do you know where you're goin'? Honey where have you been? Do you see the games they're playin'? Do you really believe you can win?
I'm gonna try again Don't matter if I win or lose Gonna try again anyway Yes I will, gonna try anyway Yes I will
Desolation Row
Composer(s): Bob Dylan
First release by: Bob Dylan - 1965
Covered by multiple other artists
Versions In Other Languages:
1974 - Via Della Povertà (Fabrizio De André)
2010 - De Verloren Straat (Ernst Jansz)
They're selling postcards of the hanging They're painting the passports brown The beauty parlor is filled with sailors The circus is in town Here comes the blind commissioner They've got him in a trance One hand is tied to the tight-rope walker The other is in his pants And the riot squad they're restless They need somewhere to go As Lady and I look out tonight From Desolation Row
Cinderella, she seems so easy "It takes one to know one," she smiles And puts her hands in her back pockets Bette Davis style And in comes Romeo, he's moaning "You Belong to Me I Believe" And someone says," You're in the wrong place, my friend You better leave" And the only sound that's left After the ambulances go Is Cinderella sweeping up On Desolation Row
Now the moon is almost hidden The stars are beginning to hide The fortunetelling lady Has even taken all her things inside All except for Cain and Abel And the hunchback of Notre Dame Everybody is making love Or else expecting rain And the Good Samaritan, he's dressing He's getting ready for the show He's going to the carnival tonight On Desolation Row
Now Ophelia, she's 'neath the window For her I feel so afraid On her twenty-second birthday She already is an old maid
To her, death is quite romantic She wears an iron vest Her profession's her religion Her sin is her lifelessness And though her eyes are fixed upon Noah's great rainbow She spends her time peeking Into Desolation Row
Einstein, disguised as Robin Hood With his memories in a trunk Passed this way an hour ago With his friend, a jealous monk He looked so immaculately frightful As he bummed a cigarette Then he went off sniffing drainpipes And reciting the alphabet Now you would not think to look at him But he was famous long ago For playing the electric violin On Desolation Row
Dr. Filth, he keeps his world Inside of a leather cup But all his sexless patients They're trying to blow it up Now his nurse, some local loser She's in charge of the cyanide hole And she also keeps the cards that read "Have Mercy on His Soul" They all play on penny whistles You can hear them blow If you lean your head out far enough From Desolation Row
Across the street they've nailed the curtains They're getting ready for the feast The Phantom of the Opera A perfect image of a priest They're spoonfeeding Casanova To get him to feel more assured Then they'll kill him with self-confidence After poisoning him with words
And the Phantom's shouting to skinny girls "Get Outa Here If You Don't Know Casanova is just being punished for going To Desolation Row"
Now at midnight all the agents And the superhuman crew Come out and round up everyone That knows more than they do Then they bring them to the factory Where the heart-attack machine Is strapped across their shoulders And then the kerosene Is brought down from the castles By insurance men who go Check to see that nobody is escaping To Desolation Row
Praise be to Nero's Neptune The Titanic sails at dawn And everybody's shouting "Which Side Are You On?" And Ezra Pound and T. S. Eliot Fighting in the captain's tower While calypso singers laugh at them And fishermen hold flowers Between the windows of the sea Where lovely mermaids flow And nobody has to think too much About Desolation Row
Yes, I received your letter yesterday (About the time the door knob broke) When you asked how I was doing Was that some kind of joke? All these people that you mention Yes, I know them, they're quite lame I had to rearrange their faces And give them all another name Right now I can't read too good Don't send me no more letters no Not unless you mail them From Desolation Row
I'll Find My Way Home Composer(s): Jon Anderson - Vangelis Performer(s): Jon & Vangelis
You ask me where to begin Am I so lost in my sin You ask me where did I fall I'll say I can't tell you when But if my spirit is lost How will I find what is near Don't question I'm not alone Somehow I'll find my way home My sun shall rise in the east So shall my heart be at peace And if you're asking me when I'll say it starts at the end You know your will to be free Is matched with secretly And talk will alter your prayer Somehow you'll find you are there Your friend is close by your side And speaks in far ancient tongue A seasons wish will come true All seasons begin with you A world we all come from A world we melt into one Just hold my hand and we're there Somehow we're going somewhere Somehow we're going somewhere
You ask me where to begin Am I so lost in my sin You ask me where did I fall I'll say I can't tell you when But if my spirit is strong I know it can't be long No questions I'm not alone Sometime I'll find my way home Somehow I'll find my way home Sometime I'll find my way home Somehow I'll find my way home Sometime I'll find my way home Somehow I'll find my way home
