Sentimental Oriental Nights Composer(s): L. Wolfe Gilbert; Anatol Friedland
Oh, those Oriental Nights Silver lining in the sky Golden shadows drawing nigh Oh, those oriental lights Sentimental eyes are beaming, dreaming with delight!
I bask in your wonderful smile, I ask for your love all the while Let's roam the wildwood As in our childhood Rapture and joy to be-witch and beguile Roses of love fill the air Sweet scented perfume so rare Life's golden treasure Love without measure Here 'mid the Oriental Nights Nightbirds are crooning in the dark Harken unto the meadowlark He knows who goes sweet-heart!
Oh, those Oriental nights Silver lining in the sky Golden shadows drawing nigh Come, love, linger in my arms In abandon gaze into my eyes Be my paradise 'Neath these wondrous skies of love
Quando O Carnaval Chegar Composer(s): Chico Buarque Performer(s): Chico Buarque
Quem me vê sempre parado, distante Garante que eu não sei sambar Tou me guardando pra quando o carnaval chegar Eu tô só vendo, sabendo, sentindo, escutando E não posso falar Tou me guardando pra quando o carnaval chegar Eu vejo as penas de louça da moça que passa e n!ão posso pegar Tou me guardando pra quando o carnaval chegar Há quanto tempo desejo seu beijo Molhado de maracujá Tou me guardando pra quando o carnaval chegar E que me ofende, humilhando, pisando, pensando Que eu vou aturar Tou me guardando pra quando o carnaval chegar E quem me vê apanhando da vida duvida que eu vá revidar Tou me guardando pra quando o carnaval chegar Eu vejo a barra do dia surgindo, pedindo pra gente cantar Tou me guardando pra quando o carnaval chegar Eu tenho tanta alegria, adiada, abafada, quem dera gritar Tou me guardando pra quando o carnaval chegar

Dimmi quando tu verrai dimmi quando... quando... quando... l'anno, il giorno e l'ora in cui forse tu mi bacerai... Ogni istante attenderò fino a quando... quando... quando... d'improvviso ti vedrò sorridente accanto a me! Se vuoi dirmi di sì devi dirlo perché non ha senso per la mia vita senza te... Dimmi quando tu verrai dimmi quando... quando... quando... e baciandomi dirai "Non ci lasceremo mai!" Se vuoi dirmi di sì devi dirlo perché non ha senso per la mia vita senza te... Dimmi quando tu verrai dimmi quando... quando... quando... e baciandomi dirai "Non ci lasceremo mai!"

Sweet `n' mellow, like a cello A lovely melody that helps me when I say "I love you" while we're dancing A sentimental interlude with you in my arms
Sweet `n' mellow, like a cello The tempo of the song in time with every heartbeat Darling, hear them playing A sentimental interlude for two
This haunting refrain mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm mmm-mmm-mmm, a wordless rhapsody again and again, mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm mmm-mmm-mmm, to me it's heavenly
Sweet `n' mellow, like a cello Revealing in the tune those simple little words That say that I love you A sentimental interlude for two

Quando tu dormirai Quando tu sognerai Parlerai di colei che mai più Dimenticherai Tutto in me morirà E il moi cuor caprià Che non sei qui con me Per amor Ma soltante per pietà Inutilmente domani l'aurora verrà La mia bocca delusa mai più ti bacerà
La, la, la...
Al mio ciel chiedero Cio che mai non avro Sempre a lei penserai E cosi sola restero
Quando tu dormirai Solo lei sognerai Nulla più resterà Ed in me la speranza morirà

Sentimental, sentimental Um coração saliente Bate e bate muito mais que sente Fica doente Mas é natural, natural Que num cochilo de agosto Surja um outro alguém do sexo oposto Do sexo oposto, outro alguém
Ontem vi tudo acabado Meu céu desastrado Medo, solidão, ciúme Hoje eu contei as estrelas E a vida parece um filme
Gemini, Gemini, geminiano Este ano vai ser o seu ano Ou senão, o destino não quis Ah, eu hei de ser Terei de ser Serei feliz Serei feliz, feliz
Façam muitas manhãs Que se o mundo acabar Eu ainda não fui feliz Atrapalhem os pés Dos exércitos, dos pelotões Eu não fui feliz Desmantelem no cais Os navios de guerra Eu ainda não fui feliz Paralisem no céu Todos os aviões É urgente, eu não fui feliz Tenho dezesseis anos Sou morena clara Atraente E sentimental Sentimental, sentimental
Sentencia Composer(s): Pablo Valdés Performer(s): Javier Solís
Te acordarás de mí toda la vida te acordarás de mí mientras yo viva Te acordarás de mí porque en la vida la sentencia de amor, la sentencia de amor nunca se olvida
No pensaste ni un momento vida mía que la vida sin ti no la quería Te entregué la ilusión en mi agonía y te llevaste también, y te llevaste también toda mi vida
No pensaste ni un momento vida mía que la vida sin ti no la quería Te entregué la ilusión en mi agonía y te llevaste también, y te llevaste también toda mi vida
2 + 2 no es cuatro, ¡aún hay esperanza! Todo es pura probabilidad Ya no hay ciencia que pueda llamarse exacta Ni ley ni dogma que pueda encajar
La tela del mundo es sólo vacío Y energía en danza en su interior Teje sus latidos impredecibles De espaldas a nuestra percepción
Nada es falso ni cierto Nada es blanco ni negro No es exacto, es incierto Nada es real
Entre el sí y el no ¿qué diferencia existe? Yang se torna yin, yin va hacia yang Entre el bien y el mal ¿qué diferencia existe? Contraria sunt complementa*
Las cosas son tal como las vemos Sólo porque estamos viéndolas Y porque así es como queremos verlas La danza se congela al observar
Nada es falso ni cierto Nada es blanco ni negro No es exacto, es incierto Nada es real

Whole Lot Of Love Composer(s): Tom T. Hall Performer(s): Tom T. Hall
We live on a farm in Tennessee like old McDonald's was We have all the things that a farm should have and a whole lot of love
We have a brace of ducks and a clutch of chicks Cry of hounds and a candle of kits Enough of frogs and as it gets dark an exaltation of larks We live on a farm in Tennessee like old McDonald's was We have all the things that a farm should have and a whole lot of love
We have a drove of cattle and a grist of bees A colony of ants and a gaggle of geese A school of fish and a murder of crows and a great big tribe of goats We live on a farm in Tennessee like old McDonald's was We have all the things that a farm should have and a whole lot of love
We have a skulk of foxes and a sleuth of bears A set of cranes and a hust of hares A herd of horses and a spring of teal and a watch of nightingales We live on a farm in Tennessee like old McDonald's was We have all the things that a farm should have and a whole lot of love
We have a sun of mornings and a moon of nights An I-feel-bad of hold me tights It rains, but not too much, we got a whole lot of love
