Sarie Marais
Sarie Marais
(Traditional)
My Sarie Marais is so ver van my hart
Maar'k hoop om haar weer te sien
Sy het in die wyk van die Mooi Rivier gewoon
Nog voor die oorlog het begin
O bring my trug na die ou Transvaal
Daar waar my Sarie woon
Daar onder in die mielies
By die groen doringboom
Daar woon my Sarie Marais
Daar waar my Sarie woon
Daar onder in die mielies
By die groen doringboom
Daar woon my Sarie Marais
Ek was so bang dat die Kakies my sou vang
En ver oor die see wegstuur
Toe vlug ek na die kant van die Upington se sand
Daar onder langs die Grootrivier
Refrein
Die Kakies is mos net soos 'n krokodille pes
Hulle sleep jou altyd water toe
Hul gooi jou op n skip vir 'n lange, lange trip
Die josie weet waarnatoe
O bring my trug na die ou Transvaal
Daar waar my Sarie woon
Daar onder in die mielies
By die groen doringboom
Daar woon my Sarie Marais
Daar waar my Sarie woon
Daar onder in die mielies
By die groen doringboom
Daar woon my Sarie Marais
Verlossing die kom en die huis toe gaan was daar
Terug na die ou Transvaal
My lieflingspersoon sal seker ook daar wees
Om my met 'n kus te beloon
O bring my trug na die ou Transvaal
Daar waar my Sarie woon
Daar onder in die mielies
By die groen doringboom
Daar woon my Sarie Marais
Daar waar my Sarie woon
Daar onder in die mielies
By die groen doringboom
Daar woon my Sarie Marais

Minuit, Chrétiens
Minuit, Chrétiens (aka Cantique De Noël)

Composer(s): Adolphe-Charles Adam; Placide Cappeau
First performance by: Emily Laurey - 1847
Performer(s): Joan Baez - 1966
and multiple other artists
Minuit, chrétiens
C'est l'heure solennelle
Où l'Homme Dieu descendit jusqu'à nous
Pour effacer la tache originelle
Et de son père arrêter le courroux
Le mode entier tressaille d'espérance
En cette nuit qui lui donne un sauveur
Peuple à genoux
Attends ta délivrance!
Noël! Noël!
Voici le Rédempteur!
Noël! Noël!
Voici le Rédempteur!
Le rédempteur
A brisé toute entrave
La terre est libre
Et le ciel est ouvert
Il voit un frère
Où n'était qu'un esclave
L'amour unit ceux qu'enchaînait le fer
Qui lui dira notre reconnaissance?
C'est pour nous tous qu'il naît
Qu'il souffre et meurt
Peuple debout
Chante ta délivrance!
Noël! Noël!
Chantons le Rédempteur!
Noël! Noël!
Chantons le Rédempteur!

Sarbacane
Sarbacane
Composer(s): Francis Cabrel
First release by: Francis Cabrel - 1989
Covered by: Johnny Hallyday - 2007
On croyait savoir tout sur l'amour
Depuis toujours
Nos corps par cœur et nos cœurs au chaud
Dans le velours
Et puis te voilà bout de femme
Comme soufflée d'une sarbacane
La ciel a même un autre éclat
Depuis toi
Les hommes poursuivent ce temps
Qui court depuis toujours
Voilà que t'arrives
Et que tout s'éclaire sur mon parcours
Pendue à mon cou comme une liane
Comme le roseau de la sarbacane
Le ciel s'est ouvert par endroits
Depuis toi
Pas besoin de phrases ni de longs discours
Ça change tout dedans, ça change tout autour
Finis les matins paupières en panne
Lourdes comme les bouteilles de butane
J'ai presque plus ma tête à moi
Depuis toi
Pas besoin de faire de trop longs discours
Ça change tout dedans, ça change tout autour
Pourvu que jamais tu ne t'éloignes
Plus loin qu'un jet de sarbacane
J'ai presque plus ma tête à moi
Depuis toi
Alors te voilà bout de femme
Comme soufflée d'une sarbacane
Le ciel s'est ouvert par endroits
Depuis toi
Oh depuis toi...

Saratoga
Composer(s): Nina Simone; Eunice Waymon
Performer(s): Nina Simone
Oh Saratoga, will you dream
I know how love must seem
My love is far away
Oh Saratoga, will you smile
And dream with me a while
My love is far away
Love, it isn't fair
When you're not there, it isn't fair
The time, where has it gone
When you're alone, it has no end
Oh Saratoga, will you dream
I know how love must seem
Time waits and then it's gone
Love, it isn't fair
When you're not there, it isn't fair
And time, where has it gone
When you're alone, it has no end
Oh Saratoga, will you dream
I know how love must seem
Time waits and then it's gone
Time waits and then it's gone

Sarah's At The Window
Sarah's At The Window
Performer(s): Johnny Logan
Sarah´s lonely reflection
close to making connections
She´s running away
Sarah´s hiding rejection
She dreams of nothing but deception
a brighter new day
Sarah´s at the window
pretending not to cry
staring at a rainbow
and clouds that pass her by
No one knows her pain
Her tears are lost behind the rain
Secrets of the heart
She says they´re a part of the price of love
It´s no surprise after all the lies
that something´s died in Sarah´s sad blue eyes
Yeah Sarah, sweeter than morning hold on,
another day is dawning
It´s a brighter new day
Sarah´s at the window
although her eyes are red
promising tomorrow to the demons in her head
Sarah, don´t cry

But we sure mean it when we say…

You all
May your days be sunny and bright
May your hearts be happy and light
Merry Texas Christmas, you all!

We’d wish that we could send to you
A gushing oil well or two
And say “Hi There” and wishing you a…
Merry Texas Christmas, you all!
Ah San Antonio to Huston
Merry Texas Christmas, you all!
>From Fort Worth and Dallas too
May your days be sunny and bright
May your hearts be happy and light
Merry Texas Christmas, you all!
Merry Texas Christmas, you all!
You all…You all

Sarah In The Summer
Sarah In The Summer
Composer(s): Jimmy Ibbotson
Performer(s): The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band; Wild Jimbos
I've driven this road as a stranger
I've driven this road as a friend
I've driven this road as a slack-jawed tourist
And I'm drivin' on it once again
It might be cold and long and lonely
But she's waitin' on the other side
And I'm an hour closer to Sarah in the summer
And joyfully I ride
Joyfully I ride
And I've climbed through Georgetown, to Silver Plume
The tunnel at Loveland's cold
The lake on the left is a little lower
Route 9 is the Breckenridge road
There's a sign right below Copper Mountain
Tellin' whether Independence runs free
And I'm an hour closer to Sarah in the summer
And that's where I wanna be
That's where I wanna be
In the evening shadow of Red Butte
Up the lane from the Slaughter House Bridge
The first cabin the moonlight strikes
As it crests the cleft in Hunter Crick Ridge
Up from between Old Red and Smuggler
Rising high on a piano bench there
And I'm an hour closer to Sarah in the summer
And what lies between beware
What lies between, beware
Oh, when the red sandstone sentinels
Rising high on either side
As I follow the Eagle Valley
Through the canyon where the Saints reside
In Mt. Snowmass' massive majesty south
And east out of Glennywood Springs
And I'm an hour closer to Sarah in the summer
Where the Roaring River sings
The Roaring River sings
I've driven this road as a stranger
I've driven this road as a friend
I've driven this road as a slack-jawed tourist
And I'm drivin' on it once again
It might be cold and long and lonely
But she's waitin' on the other side
And I'm an hour closer to Sarah in the summer
And joyfully I ride
Joyfully I ride

Composer(s): Joshua Chasez; Vincent de Giorgio; Veit Renn; Justin Timberlake
Performer(s): *NSync
Merry Christmas Happy Holidays
Merry christmas, Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays
We've been waiting all year for this night
When the snow is glistening on the trees outside
And all the stockings are hung by the fire side
Waiting for Santa to arrive and all the love will show
'Cause everybody knows it's Christmas time
And all the kids will see gifts under the tree
It's the best time of year for the family
It's a wonderful feeling, feel the love in the room
From the floor to the ceiling
It's that time of year
Christmas time is here
And with the blessings from above
God sends you his love and everything's okay
Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays
Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays
Bells are ringing it's time to scream and shout (scream and shout)
And everybody's playing cause school's out
Celebrating the special times we share happiness
'Cause love is in the air and all the love will show
'Cause everybody knows it's Christmas time
And all the kids will see the gifts under the tree
It's the best time of year for the family
It's a wonderful feeling, feel the love in the room
From the floor to the ceiling
It's that time of year
Christmas time is here
And with the blessings from above
God sends you his love and everything's okay
Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas
Happy Holidays, Happy Holidays
No matter what your holiday it's a time to celebrate
Put your worries aside and open up your mind
See the world right by your side, it's Christmas time
Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas
Happy Holidays, Happy Holidays
It's a wonderful feeling, feel the love in the room
From the floor to the ceiling
It's that time of year
Christmas time is here
And with the blessings from above
God sends you his love and everything's okay
Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays
Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas
Happy Holidays, Happy Holidays

Sarah Cynthia Sylvia Stout Would Not Take The Garbage Out
Sarah Cynthia Sylvia Stout Would Not Take The Garbage Out
Composer(s): Shel Silverstein
Performer(s): Shel Silverstein
Sarah Cynthia Sylvia Stout
Would not take the garbage out!
She'd scour the pots and scrape the pans
Candy the yams and spice the hams
And though her daddy would scream and shout
She simply would not take the garbage out
And so it piled up to the ceilings
Coffee grounds, potato peelings
Brown bananas, rotten peas
Chunks of sour cottage cheese
It filled the can, it covered the floor
It cracked the window and blocked the door
With bacon rinds and chicken bones
Drippy ends of ice cream cones
Prune pits, peach pits, orange peel
Gloopy glumps of cold oatmeal
Pizza crusts and withered greens
Soggy beans and tangerines
Crusts of black burned buttered toast
Gristly bits of beefy roasts...
The garbage rolled on down the hall
It raised the roof, it broke the wall...
Greasy napkins, cookie crumbs
Globs of gooey bubble gum
Cellophane from green baloney
Rubbery blubbery macaroni
Peanut butter, caked and dry
Curdled milk and crusts of pie
Moldy melons, dried-up mustard
Eggshells mixed with lemon custard
Cold French fries and rancid meat
Yellow lumps of Cream of Wheat
At last the garbage reached so high
That finally it touched the sky
And all the neighbors moved away
And none of her friends would come to play
And finally Sarah Cynthia Stout said
"OK, I'll take the garbage out!"
But then, of course, it was too late...
The garbage reached across the state
From New York to the Golden Gate
And there, in the garbage she did hate
Poor Sarah met an awful fate
That I cannot right now relate
Because the hour is much too late
But children, remember Sarah Stout
And always take the garbage out!

Greeting cards have all been sent
The Christmas rush is through
But I still have one wish to make
A special one for you
Merry Christmas, darling
We're apart, that's true
But I can dream
And in my dreams
I'm Christmasing with you
Holidays are joyful
There's always something new
But every day's a holiday
When I'm near to you
The lights on my tree
I wish you could see
I wish it every day
The logs on the fire
Fill me with desire
To see you and to say
That I wish you Merry Christmas
Happy New Year too
I've just one wish
On this Christmas Eve
I wish I were with you
I wish I were with you
Merry Christmas, darling

And to count up all the ports of call I've known
And to thank his mercies tender
For I'm never far from home

Such a long way from that first birthday

That we're never far from home

Merry Christmas To Me
Merry Christmas To Me
Composer(s): Alan Jackson
Performer(s): Alan Jackson; Swoon 23
Today I took some paper from the closet
And wrapped the wedding ring you left behind
And I addressed it to the man who vowed to love you
And on a little card I wrote these words inside
Merry Christmas to me
Just one gift beneath my tree
For the fool who let you leave
Merry Christmas to me
Then I sat down in my chair and thought about you
About the many reasons why you're gone
And I opened up the present that I gave to me
And realized how much it hurts to be alone
Merry Christmas to me
Just one gift beneath my tree
For the fool who let you leave
Merry Christmas to me
I'm the fool who let you leave
Merry Christmas to me

Sarah
Composer(s): Georges Moustaki
First release by: Georges Moustaki - 1974
La femme qui est dans mon lit
N'a plus vingt ans depuis longtemps
Les yeux cernés
Par les années
Par les amours
Au jour le jour
La bouche usée
Par les baisers
Trop souvent mais
Trop mal donnés
Le teint blafard
Malgré le fard
Plus pâle qu'une
Tache de lune
La femme qui est dans mon lit
N'a plus vingt ans depuis longtemps
Les seins trop lourds
De trop d'amours
Ne portent pas
Le nom d'appâts
Le corps lassé
Trop caressé
Trop souvent mais
Trop mal aimé
Le dos voûté
Semble porter
Les souvenirs
Qu'elle a dû fuir
La femme qui est dans mon lit
N'a plus vingt ans depuis longtemps
Ne riez pas
N'y touchez pas
Gardez vos larmes
Et vos sarcasmes
Lorsque la nuit
Nous réunit
Son corps, ses mains
S'offrent aux miens
Et c'est son cœur
Couvert de pleurs
Et de blessures
Qui me rassure
