En Un Mundo Nuevo Composer(s): T. Luz - R. Trabucchelli
First performance by: Karina - 1971
Sólo al final del camino, las cosas claras verás la razón de vivir y el porqué de mil cosas más Al mirar hacia atrás, cuando llegues comprenderás
Busca las cosas sencillas y encontrarás la verdad La verdad de ese amor, lo demás déjalo pasar Solamente el amor con el tiempo no morirá
Al fin del camino se harán realidad los sueños que llevas en ti si en todo momento en tu caminar la vida has llenado de amor y verdad
Al fin del camino podrás encontrar el bien que esperaste sentir olvida el pasado, pues no volverá conserva el amor que hay en ti
Al fin del camino habrá un despertar de nuevo volver a vivir si en todo momento en tu caminar la vida has llenado de amor y verdad
Al fin del camino en ti llevarás la fe y la ilusión de vivir tus sueños de siempre se harán realidad en un mundo nuevo y feliz
Al fin del camino en ti llevarás la fe y la ilusión de vivir Tus sueños de siempre se harán realidad en un mundo nuevo y feliz en un mundo nuevo y feliz en un mundo nuevo y feliz
Papara papapa papara papa papara papa parara Tus sueños de siempre se harán realidad si llenas tu vida de amor y paz si llenas tu vida de amor y paz en un mundo nuevo y feliz
Pieces Of April Composer(s): Dave Loggins Performer(s): Three Dog Night; and various other artists
April gave us springtime and the promise of the flowers And the feeling that we both shared and the love that we called ours We had no time for sadness, that's a road we each had crossed We were living a time meant for us, and even when it would rain we would laugh it off
I've got pieces of April, I keep them in a memory bouquet I've got pieces of April, but it's a morning in May
We stood on the crest of summer, beneath an oak that blossemed green Feelings as I did in April, not really knowing what it means But it must be ther that youstand beside me now to make me feel this way Just as I did in April, but it's a morning in May
I've got pieces of April, I keep them in a memory bouquet I've got pieces of April, but it's a morning in May
Sixteen Miles (To Seven Lakes) Composer(s): Gordon Lightfoot Performer(s): Gordon Lightfoot
Early in the morning when the dew is on Each and every rose bud, you will find me gone So knock me down and pick me up and knock me down again Break my heart and steal my gold and slander my good name
Seven lonely hours on a morning train Take me to a place where I won't come back again Seven lonely Pullmans speeding down the line Takin' me away from an old love of mine
Sixteen miles to seven lakes way up among the pines In some hidden valley where the twirlin' river twines Where the fish swim up and down and the sparklin' waters falls Where the thunder roll and the lonely puma calls
Somewhere on the mountain I'll take another name Rid my mind of memories and start my life again Somewhere in the wilderness I'll build a cabin small Then forget so I won't remember you at all

Piddle, Twiddle And Resolve Composer(s): Sherman Edwards; Donald Meyer Performer(s): New Broadway Cast Recording
Adams: Dear God! For one solid year they have been sitting there
for one year doing nothing!
I do believe you've laid a curse on North America A curse that we here now rehearse in Philadelphia A second flood, A simple famine plagues of locusts everywhere or a cataclysmic earthquake I'd accept with some despair but no you send us congress good God sir was that fair?
I say this with humility in Philadelphia we're your responsibility in Philadelphia If you don't want to see us hanging on some far off British hill if you don't want the voice of independency forever still then God sir get thee to it! For congress never will
Chorus: You see we piddle twiddle and resolve not one damn thing do we solve piddle twiddle and resolve nothing's ever solved in foul, fetid, fuming, foggy, filthy, Philadelphia
Congress Man: Someone ought to open up a window
Adams: Oh shut up!
They may sit here for years and years in Philadelphia These indecisive grenadiers of Philadelphia They can't decide on what is right or wrong or what is good or bad I'm convinced the only purpose this congress ever had was to gather here specifically to drive John Adams mad!
Repeat Chorus
Abigail: John, John, is that you carrying on? John?
Adams: Oh Abigail, Abigail I have such a desire to knock heads together!
Abigail: I know my dearest I know, but that's because you make everything so complicated It's all quite simple really
Just tell congress to declare independency then sign your name get our of there and hurry home to me. Our children all have dysentery little Tom keeps turning blue little Abby has the measles and I'm coming down with flu they say we may get small pox
Adams: Uh, Madam, what else is new?
Abigail, in my last letter I told you that the king has collected twelve thousand German Mercenaries to send against us I asked you to organize the ladies to make salt peter for gunpowder Have you done as I asked?
Abigail: No John, I have not Adams: Why have you not? Abigail: Because you neglected to tell us how salt peter is made Adams: By treating sodium nitrate with potassium chloride of course! Abigail: Oh yes, of course Adams: Will it be done then? Abigail: I'm afraid we have a more ugent problem John Adams: More urgent madame?
Abigail: There's one thing every woman's missed in Massachusetts bay Don't smirk at me you egotist pay heed to what I say We've been from Framingham to Boston and we cannot find a pin don't you know there is a war on say the tradesmen with a grin well we will not make salt peter until you send us pins
Adams: Pins madame? Salt peter Abigail: Pins Adams: salt peter Abigail: Pins Adams: Salt peter Abigail: pins Adams: Salt peter Abigail: Pins Adams: Peter! Abigail: Pins! Adams:Peter! Abigail:Pins! Adams: Peter! Abigail: Pins! Adams: Peter! Abigail: Pins! Adams: Done Madame, done Abigail: Done, John, done

Corpo de linho lábios de mosto meu corpo lindo meu fogo posto Eira de milho luar de Agosto quem faz um filho fá-lo por gosto É milho-rei milho vermelho cravo de carne bago de amor filho de um rei que sendo velho volta a nascer quando há calor

É trigo loiro é além tejo o meu país neste momento o sol o queima o vento o beija seara louca em movimento
Minha palavra dita à luz do sol nascente meu madrigal de madrugada amor amor amor amor amor presente em cada espiga desfolhada

I used to wake up in the morning I used to feel so bad I got so sick of having sleepless nights I went and told my dad He said, "Son now here's some little something" And stuck them on my wall And now my nights ain't quite so lonely In fact I, I don't feel bad at all
Pictures of Lily made my life so wonderful Pictures of Lily helped me sleep at night Pictures of Lily solved my childhood problems Pictures of Lily helped me feel alright
Pictures of Lily Lily, oh Lily Lily, oh Lily Pictures of Lily
And then one day things weren't quite so fine I fell in love with Lily I asked my dad where Lily I could find He said, "Son, now don't be silly" "She's been dead since 1929" Oh, how I cried that night If only I'd been born in Lily's time It would have been alright
Pictures of Lily made my life so wonderful Pictures of Lily helped me sleep at night For me and Lily are together in my dreams And I ask you, "Hey mister, have you ever seen" "Pictures of Lily?"
