Mucuripe


Mucuripe
Composer(s): Raimundo Fagner; Antonio Carlos Belchior
Performer(s): Fagner
and various other artists



As velas do Mucuripe
Vão sair para pescar
Vou levar as minhas mágoas
Pras águas fundas do mar
Hoje à noite namorar
Sem ter medo da saudade
E sem vontade de casar
Calça nova de riscado
Paletó de linho branco
Que até o mês passado
Lá no campo inda era flor
Sob o meu chapéu quebrado
O sorriso ingênuo e franco
De um rapaz novo e encantado
Com vinte anos de amor
Aquela estrela é dela
Vida, vento, vela leva-me daqui

God Loves Laughter


God Loves Laughter
Performer(s): Damon Leigh & Larry Ramos



Now if you want to see the sunshine
Then you've got to have the rain
And if you want to make laughter
Then you've got to feel some pain
Yes if you want to be happy
You've got to know how to cry
Don't you know that God loves laughter
Because it makes His children high
Don't you know that God loves laughter
Because it makes His children high

There is a reason for the pain that makes the children cry
That makes their teardrops fall like rain… there is a reason why
A reason why hard times go down and the good times come after
A reason why things turn around… because God loves laughter

So if you want to see the sunshine
Then you've got to have the rain
And if you want to make laughter
Then you've got to feel some pain
Yes if you want to be happy
You've got to know how to cry
Don't you know that God loves laughter
Because it makes His children high
Don't you know that God loves laughter
Because it makes His children high

You cannot know what life's about until you've walked alone
Until you've had to do without what made you feel at home
And you cannot have the sunshine without the rainfall after
All those tears fall from your eyes because God loves laughter

So if you want to see the sunshine
Then you've got to have the rain
And if you want to make laughter
Then you've got to feel some pain
Yes if you want to be happy
You've got to know how to cry
Don't you know that God loves laughter
Because it makes His children high
Don't you know that God loves laughter
Because it makes His children high

Tant De Temps


Tant De Temps
Composer(s): Philippe Soupault
Performer(s): Michael Mantler



Le temps qui passe
Le temps qui ne passe pas
Le temps qu'on tue
Le temps de compter jusqu'a dix
Le temps qu'on n'a pas
Le temps qu'il fait
Le temps de s'ennuyer
Le temps de rêver
Le temps de l'agonie
Le temps qu'on perd
Le temps d'aimer
Le temps des cerises
Le mauvais temps
Et le bon et le beau
Et le froid et le temps chaud
Le temps de se retourner
Le temps des adieux
Le temps qu'il est bien temps
Le temps qui n'est même pas
Le temps de cligner de l'oeil
Le temps relatif
Le temps de boire un coup
Le temps d'attendre
Le temps du bon bout
Le temps de mourir
Le temps qui ne se mesure pas
Le temps de crier gare
Le temps mort
Et puis l'éternité

Muchas Veces Me Pregunto


Muchas Veces Me Pregunto
Composer(s): Manuel Alejandro
Performer(s): Raphael



Muchas veces me pregunto si merecerá la pena
Trabajar toda una vida por un pedazo de tierra
Por un pedazo de tierra que te dan aunque no quieras
Para que tu cuerpo no estorbe, para que tus huesos no muelan
Muchas veces me pregunto si merecerá la pena
Muchas veces me pregunto si merecerá la pena
Amasar tanto en la vida si estamos de paso en ella
Si no será más feliz el pobre con su miseria
Que Dios le guarda una aguja para que pase por ella
Muchas veces me pregunto si merecerá la pena
Muchas veces me pregunto si merecerá la pena
Intentar darle a la vida lo que el hombre justo sueña
Si todo sucede igual pero con distintas fechas
Y el hombre sigue ladrando y sigue las mismas guerras
Muchas veces me pregunto que si merecerá la pena

God Give Me Strength


God Give Me Strength
Composer(s): Elvis Costello; Burt Bacharach
Performer(s): Elvis Costello;
and various other artists



Now I have nothing, so God give me strength
'Cause I'm weak in her wake
And if I'm strong I might still break
And I don't have anything to share
That I won't throw away into the air
That song is sung out
This bell is rung out
She was the light that I'd bless
She took my last chance at happiness
So God give me strength, God give me strength
I can't hold onto her, God give me strength
When the phone doesn't ring
And I'm lost in imagining
Everything that kind of love is worth
As I tumble back down to the earth
That song is sung out
This bell is rung out
She was the light that I'd bless
She took my last chance at happiness
So God give me strength
God if she'd grant me her indulgence and decline
I might as well wipe her from my memory
Fracture the spell as she becomes my enemy
Maybe I was washed out like a lip-print on his shirt
See, I'm only human, I want him to hurt
I want him
I want him to hurt

Since I lost the power to pretend
That there could ever be a happy ending
That song is sung out
This bell is rung out
She was the light that I'd bless
She took my last chance at happiness
So God give me strength, God give me strength

Tant De Monnaie


Tant De Monnaie
Composer(s): Charles Aznavour - Pierre Roche
Performer(s): Charles Aznavour
and multiple other artists



Je suis releveur d'appareils automatiques
À toutes les heures j'ai des pièces métalliques
Je les entends qui sonnent, écoutez-les sonner
Quand elles s'entre choquent c'est moi qui suis choqué
Je dois vous avouer ce que j'ai
Tant de monnaie que cela m'exaspère
Tant de menu monnaie avouez que c'est une mauvaise affaire
Tant de monnaie m'alourdit m'aigrit le caractère
Voyez
Tant de monnaie dit le commerçant qu'a le sourire
Tant de menu monnaie, vous avez cassé votre tirelire
Tant de monnaie et je ne sais pas quoi lui dire
Avouez
Chez moi
J'en ai rempli trente six bouteilles
Parfois
Ça bourdonne dans mes oreilles
Je crie: assez!
J'en suis obsédé
Tant de monnaie a déréglé ma vie tranquille
Tant de menu monnaie que j'entends teinter m'horripie
Tant de menu monnaie m'enverra un jour à l'asile
Dans un asile d'aliénés

J'ai changé de métier car je me faisais trop de bile
Et j'ai accepté celui de livreur à domicile
On me donne des pourboires ça fait plaisir je l'avoue
Mais quand vient le soir je crois devenir fou
Car tout comme avant
J'ai tant

Tant de monnaie que cela m'exaspère
Tant de menu monnaie avouez que c'est une mauvaise affaire
Tant de monnaie m'alourdit m'aigrit le caractère
Voyez
Tant de monnaie dit le commerçant qu'a le sourire
Tant de menu monnaie, vous avez cassé votre tirelire
Tant de monnaie et je ne sais pas quoi lui dire
Avouez
Oh! non
Ce n'est pas moi qui ai de la chance
Ce sont
Ceux qui ont de la banque de France
De beaux billets
Tandis que moi
Tant de monnaie que les gens m'en font le reproche
Tant de menu monnaie me dit-on abîme les poches
Tant de monnaie
Fait que mon complet paraît moche
Mon complet paraît tout usé
Et ça me rend fou
Toutes ces pièces de dix sous
Ces petites pièces de vingt sous
Venues de n'importe ou
Et je vous le dis entre nous
Toutes mes poches ont des trous
De minuscules trous
Et même d'immenses trous

Tant de monnaie que les gens m'en font le reproche
Tant de menu monnaie me dit-on abîme les poches
Tant de monnaie
Fait que mon complet paraît moche
Mon complet paraît tout usé
Tout usé

Muchachita De Ojos Tristes


Muchachita De Ojos Tristes
Composer(s): José Miguel Gallardo;
Vera Gallardo; José Mas Portet
Performer(s): Miguel Gallardo
and various other artists



Siempre vuelve a amanecer
y al ayer sigue un nuevo día de luz
como al vendaval y a la tempestad
le sigue la quietud
Siempre vuelve a amanecer
y después de unas lágrimas de amor
detrás de un adiós, tras la soledad
de nuevo brilla el sol
Deja de llorar, deja de llorar, que la vida no se acaba
y haz que brote la sonrisa, nuevamente de tu cara
Deja de llorar, deja de llorar, muchachita de ojos tristes
que la vida no se acaba, deja de llorar
Siempre vuelve a amanecer
siempre hay algo nuevo que alcanzar
y en tu corazón, duerme un nuevo amor
dispuesto a despertar
Deja de llorar, deja de llorar, y que estalle tu alegría
con la fuerza de la vida, como nace un nuevo día
Deja de llorar, deja de llorar, muchachita de ojos tristes
que la vida no se acaba, deja de llorar
Deja de llorar, deja de llorar, que la vida no se acaba
y haz que brote la sonrisa, nuevamente de tu cara
Deja de llorar, deja de llorar, muchachita de ojos tristes
que la vida no se acaba, sólo por amor

God gave rock 'n' roll to you, gave rock 'n' roll to you
Put it in the soul of ev'ryone
God gave rock 'n' roll to you, gave rock 'n' roll to you
Save rock 'n' roll for ev'ryone

Love your friend and love your neighbour
Love your life and love your labour
No, it's never too late to change your mind
Don't step on snails, don't climb in trees
Love Cliff Richard but please don't tease
It's never too late to change your mind

Put it in the soul of ev'ryone
God gave rock 'n' roll to you, gave rock 'n' roll to you

And it's never too late to work 9 to 5
And if you're young and you'll never be old
Music can make your dreams unfold
How good it feels to be alive

God gave rock 'n' roll to you, gave rock 'n' roll to you
Put it in the soul of ev'ryone

To every boy he gave a song to be sung
Gave rock 'n' roll to you
Save rock 'n' roll for ev'ryone

Rock!

God gave rock 'n' roll to you, gave rock 'n' roll to you ....

Tant D'amour Du Printemps


Tant D'amour Du Printemps
Composer(s): F. Gerald - Hubert Giraud
Performer(s): Dalida; Raymond Lefèvre & His Orch.



Tant d'amour du printemps
Meurt en hiver
Que j'ai peur de moi
Que j'ai peur de tout
Tant d'amour du printemps
Meurt en hiver
Que j'ai peur de moi et de nous

Que serait
Que serait notre premier matin
Désunis
Sans ta main qui retrouve ma main
Que serait
Que serait le merveilleux jardin
De la nuit
Sans ta vie qui se mêle à ma vie

Tant d'amour du printemps
Meurt en hiver
Que j'ai peur de moi
Que j'ai peur de tout
Tant d'amour du printemps
Meurt en hiver
Que j'ai peur de moi et de nous

Je voudrais
Je voudrais connaître le secret
Des amours
Dont parlaient les légendes d'antan
Je voudrais
Je voudrais t'aimer jusqu'à la fin de nos jours
À l'abri de la vie et du temps

La la la...

Se te ve agotada de caminar, descansa en mi... Muchachita
bajo tu mirada veo la soledad, hiriéndote... Muchachita
uh, uh, uh de ojos tristes
Dime lo que haces lejos de tu hogar, confía en mi... Muchachita

Bebe un poco de mi vino, siéntate junto a mi hoguera

Sobre tu semblante nace una sonrisa, tus ojos brillan... Muchachita
sientes un alivio en el corazón, ya no estás sola... Muchachita

quédate esta noche amiga, junto a mi
Yo también me siento solo, yo también he caminado
yo también estoy cansado, ya de huir... Muchachita

God Blessed America For Me


God Blessed America For Me
Composer(s): Woody Guthrie



This land is your land, this land is my land
From the Californias to the Staten Island
From the Redwood Forest, to the Gulf stream waters
God blessed America for me

As I went walking that ribbon of highway
And saw above me that endless skyway
And saw below me the golden valley, I said
God blessed America for me

I roamed and rambled and followed my footsteps
To the sparkling sands of her diamond deserts
And all around me, a voice was sounding
God blessed America for me

Was a high wall there that tried to stop me
A sign was painted said: Private Property
But on the back side it didn't say nothing
God blessed America for me

When the sun come shining, then I was strolling
In wheat fields waving and dust clouds rolling
The voice was chanting as the fog was lifting
God blessed America for me

One bright sunny morning in the shadow of the steeple
By the Relief Office I saw my people
As they stood hungry, I stood there wondering if
God blessed America for me

Tant D'amour


Tant D'amour
Composer(s): Jean-Loup Dabadie - Julien Clerc
Performer(s): Julien Clerc; Anne Clark



Là, c'était la fenêtre
Où ell' se faisait prendre
Avec son air d'attendre
Un autre paysage

La moitié du visage
Comme à l'ombre d'ell' même
L'autr' ne laissant paraître
Qu'une pâleur extrêm

... Là le jardin d'hiver
Où j'aimais qu'elle danse
Sans musique, au contraire
Son corps dans le silence

Là c'était la terrasse
Et là... c'était la chambre
Où un soir de septembre
Ell' me quitte à voix basse...

Tant d'amour
Tant d'amour
Un jour le cœur se casse
Et c'est en un instant

Là le jardin superbe
Où je l'entendais rire
Et là les hautes herbes
Où je la vois courir

Là-bas, c'était son arbre
Le jeune et beau qui tremble
Mais la première alarme
C'est ailleurs, il me semble

... On prenait ce couloir
Voyageurs dans le noir
Quand sa petite main
Habitait dans ma main

Et là c'était ce lit
Où se levait le jour
Ici elle faisait
Et défaisait l'amour...

Tant d'amour
Tant d'amour
Un jour le cœur se casse
Et c'est en un instant

Nos pas perdent leurs traces
Les miroirs se glacent

Tant d'amour
Et déjà
... Cette couleur d'ivoire
Que le temps donne au temps...

Muchacha bonita, bonita bonita

God Bless The U.S.A.


God Bless The U.S.A.
Composer(s): Lee Greenwood
Performer(s): Lee Greenwood



If tomorrow all the things were gone
I'd worked for all my life
And I had to start again
with just my children and my wife

I'd thank my lucky stars
to be livin here today
`Cause the flag still stands for freedom
and they can't take that away

And I'm proud to be an American
where at least I know I'm free
And I wont forget the men who died
who gave that right to me

And I gladly stand up
next to you and defend her still today
`Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land
God bless the USA

From the lakes of Minnesota
to the hills of Tennessee
Across the plains of Texas
From sea to shining sea

From Detroit down to Houston
and New York to L.A.
Well there's pride in every American heart
and its time we stand and say

That I'm proud to be an American
where at least I know I'm free
And I wont forget the men who died
who gave that right to me

And I gladly stand up
next to you and defend her still today
`Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land
God bless the USA

And I'm proud to be and American
where at least I know I'm free
And I wont forget the men who died
who gave that right to me

And I gladly stand up
next to you and defend her still today
`Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land
God bless the USA

Tankas


Tankas
Composer(s): Jorge Luis Borges - Pedro Aznar
Performer(s): Pedro Aznar; Jorge Luis Borges



Alto en la cumbre
Todo el jardín es luna
Luna de oro
Más precioso es el roce
De tu boca en la sombra

La voz del ave
Que la penumbra esconde
Ha enmudecido
Andas por tu jardín
Algo, lo sé, te falta

La ajena copa
La espada que fue espada
En otra mano
La luna de la calle
¿Dime, acaso no bastan?

Bajo la luna
El tigre de oro y sombra
Mira sus garras
No sabe que en el alba
Han destrozado un hombre

Triste la lluvia
Que sobre el mármol cae
Triste ser tierra
Triste no ser los días
Del hombre, el sueño, el alba

No haber caído
Como otros de mi sangre
En la batalla
Ser en la vana noche
El que cuenta las sílabas

Muchacha bonita acabas tu vida
esperando al hombre que te haga feliz
Tu cara de rosa se torna marchita
y a través del tiempo tu pelo es más gris

Muchacha bonita de anhelos eternos
mil noches de luna te han visto tejer
el blanco vestido y el velo de novia
que nunca en la vida te habrás de poner

Muchacha bonita de anhelos eternos
mil noches de luna te han visto tejer

God Bless The Child


God Bless The Child
Composer(s): Arthur Herzog Jr.; Billie Holiday
Performer(s): Billie Holiday;
and various other artists



Them that's got shall have
Them that's not shall lose
So the Bible said and it still is news
Mama may have, Papa may have
But God bless the child that's got his own
That's got his own

Yes, the strong gets more
While the weak ones fade
Empty pockets don't ever make the grade
Mama may have, Papa may have
But God bless the child that's got his own
That's got his own

Money, you've got lots of friends
Crowding round the door
When you're gone, spending ends
They don't come no more
Rich relations give
Crust of bread and such
You can help yourself
But don't take too much
Mama may have, Papa may have
But God bless the child that's got his own
That's got his own
(Repeat)

Mama may have, Papa may have
But God bless the child that's got his own
That's got his own
He just worry 'bout nothin'
Cause he's got his own
Yes he's got his own

Composer(s): Agnetha Fältskog - Harold Spiro - Valerie Avon
Performer(s): Agnetha Fältskog



Tänk va' skönt att vakna upp en söndagmorgon
Och att känna sommarns vind
Att få väcka dig och viska ett god morgon
Och att röra vid din kind

Tänk va' skönt att gå till sängs och kunna sova
Och att bara vara din
Att få glädjas åt vår underbara gåva
Jag är din och du är min

Allt som var kallt och allt som var grått
Förändrades när du kom
Och blev till soliga dar, härliga dar
Jag älskar dig du är så underbar

Tänk va' skönt att vakna upp en söndagmorgon
Och att känna sommarns vind
Att få väcka dig och viska ett god morgon
Och att röra vid din kind

Tänk va' skönt att gå till sängs och kunna sova
Och att bara vara din
Att få glädjas åt vår underbara gåva
Jag är din och du är min

Allt som var kallt och allt som var grått
Förändrades när du kom
Och blev till soliga dar, härliga dar
Jag älskar dig du är så underbar

Så skönt att vakna upp
När du är här
Att få ha dig intill
Och att röra vid din kind

Tänk va' skönt att gå till sängs och kunna sova
Och att bara vara din
Att få glädjas åt vår underbara gåva
Jag är din och du är min

Så skönt att gå till sängs
När du är här...

Hey, cha cha, is this the way, cha cha?
She:
Ay, cha cha, I'm feeling high, cha-cha
He:
Oh such a hot-cha cha cha cha
She:
Come a little closer, then a little closer
Then you turn and walk away
Both:
Ta ta tum ta ta ta ta ta tiga tiga
Tum ta ta ta ta ta tiga tiga
Tum ta ta ta ta ta tiga tiga
Tum ta ta ta ta ta tiga tiga
He:
Come a little closer, then a little closer
Don't go way my little mu-cha-cha
The dance is through, cha cha
She:
Now, cha cha, let's have some chow, cha cha
He:
Then, cha cha, we'll dance again, cha cha
She:
Closer and closer
He:
And closer and
Both:
Closer and closer and closer to you
