Amarga Navidad


Amarga Navidad
Performer(s): José Alfredo Jiménez



Acaba de una vez
de un solo golpe
porque quieres matarme
poco a poco

Si va a llegar el dia
que me abandones
prefiero corazon
que sea esta noche

Diciembre me gusto
pa' que te vayas
que sea tu cura el adios
mi Navidad

No quiero comenzar
el año nuevo
con este mismo amor
que me hace tanto mal

Y ya despues
que pasen muchas cosas
que estes arrepentida
que tengas mucho miedo

Vas a saber
que aquello que dejaste
fue lo que mas quisiste
pero ya no hay remedio

Diciembre me gusto
pa' que te vayas...
(se repite)

Won't Get Fooled Again


Won't Get Fooled Again
Composer(s): Pete Townshend
Original Performers: The Who
Covered by various other artists



We'll be fighting in the streets
With our children at our feet
And the morals that they worship will be gone
And the men who spurred us on
Sit in judgment of all wrong
They decide and a shotgun sings the song
I'll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
Then I'll get on my knees and pray
We don't get fooled again
I'll move myself and my family aside
If we happen to be left half alive
Get all my papers and smile at the sky
Tho' I know that the hypnotized never lie

There's nothing in the street
Looks any different to me
And the slogans are replaced by the by
The parting on the left
Is now the parting on the right
And the beards have all grown longer overnight
Make the new boss, same as the old boss

Amara Terra Mia


Amara Terra Mia
Composer(s): E. Bonaccorti - Domenico Modugno
Performer(s): Domenico Modugno
and multiple other artists



Sole alla valle, sole alla collina, per le
campagne non c'è‚ più nessuno
Addio, addio amore, io vado via
amara terra mia, amara e bella...

Cieli infiniti e volti come pietra, mani
incallite ormai senza speranza
Addio, addio amore, io vado via
amara terra mia, amara e bella...

Tra gli uliveti ‚ nata gi la luna, un bimbo
piange, allatta un seno magro
Addio, addio amore, io vado via
amara terra mia, amara e bella...

Woningnood


Woningnood
Performer(s): Boudewijn de Groot



De wijk wordt gesaneerd en de huizen moeten plat
En de mensen staan te kijken en ze zeggen: "Zie je dat"
In die ouwe afbraakwoning woont toch nog een heel gezin
Stel je voor, zo'n vochtig huis, nou ja, wat zien ze daar nu in
Kijk, dat stel is amper twintig en die hebben al een kind
Nou, die denken zeker dat ze kunnen leven van de wind
En dan knikken ze tevreden, en dan gaan ze gauw naar huis
Naar hun baan en naar hun auto, naar de televisie thuis

Het waren slechte huizen en ze woonden clandestien
Ze hadden daar geen licht en ook geen water bovendien
Maar ze waren daar gelukkig met vier muren en een dak
Verder hadden ze aan luxe en aan dure meubels lak
Maar het huis moet afgebroken want er komt een groot kantoor
Het gezin staat nu op straat, maar ja, het geld gaat altijd voor
En dat kan je makk'lijk zeggen in je eigen mooie huis
Met je baan en met je auto, bij de televisie thuis

Ook al waren ze nu dakloos, 1 ding hadden ze geleerd
Om gewoon te mogen leven moet je eerst geregistreerd
Eerst een huis en dan pas trouwen, dus dan moet je een paar jaar
Enkel vriend'lijk en gelaten zitten kijken naar elkaar
Als je dan het wachten moe bent en er komt dan toch een kind
Moet je zien dat je dan zelf maar iets om in te wonen vindt
Want de mensen roepen: "Schande", en ze blijven veilig thuis
En bespreken de problemen op de televisiebuis

En 't gezin trekt dan weer verder naar een and're afbraakbuurt
En ze worden na een tijdje dan ook daar weer uitgestuurd
En sta je met je meubels en je kind dan weer op straat
Dan zal het niet veel helpen als je je beklagen gaat
Want als je dan die ambtenaren op de toestand wijst
Dan zeggen ze: "Het spijt me, u staat achter aan de lijst"
En dan denken ze tevreden aan hun eigen mooie huis
Aan hun baan en aan hun auto, aan de televisie thuis

Amar Amando
Composer(s): Horacio Guarany

Amar, amar, amar
amar de frente!
Amar desde la vida
hasta la muerte
amar, amar las cosas
y la gente
amar de cara al sol
sin esconderse
Ay!
Amar como ama el niño
sus juguetes
amar como ama el pájaro
su nido
amar, amar la flor
amar el trigo
y tu cintura fresca
de rocío
Ay!
No puedo vivir sin andar amando
amar como te amé y me has amado
amar, amar, amar sin que sea pecado
amar, amar, amar amando
Lararara...

Recitado:
Amar es dar la vida a cada rato
amar es no hacer trampas
es dar la cara
amar es el jugarse por su pueblo
amar como te amé y tú me amabas!...
No puedo vivir sin andar amando ...

Wondrous Place


Wondrous Place
Composer(s): Bill Giant; Jeff Lewis
Performer(s): Billy Fury;
and various other artists



I found a place full of charms
A magic world in my baby's arms
Her soft embrace like satin and lace
Wondrous place

What a spot in a storm
To cuddle up and stay nice and warm
Away from harm in my baby's arms
Wondrous place

Man I'm nowhere
When I'm anywhere else
But I don't care
Everything's right when she holds me tight

Her tender hands on my face
I'm in heaven in her embrace
I wanna stay and never go away
Wondrous place

Man I'm nowhere
When I'm anywhere else
But I don't care
Everything's right when she holds me tight

Her tender hands on my face
I'm in heaven in her embrace
I wanna stay and never go away
Wondrous place

Amapolas Y Espigas


Amapolas Y Espigas
Performer(s): Pablo Guerrero



Mi novia de mañana
va a vendimiar
Con el sol en la cara
que guapa está
Con el sol en la cara
está muy guapa
mi novia en la vendimia
por las mañanas

Yo estoy contigo
entre el sol y los vientos
y los racimos

Las ricas en el pueblo
bordan su ajuar
en espera de un novio
que no vendrá
Tú vente al campo
a vendimiar
De amapolas y espigas
te haré un collar

Vente conmigo
Te espero entre los vientos
y los racimos

Wond'ring Aloud


Wond'ring Aloud
Composer(s): Ian Anderson
Performer(s): Jethro Tull



Wond'ring aloud
how we feel today
Last night sipped the sunset
my hands in her hair
We are out own saviours
as we start both our hearts beating life
into each other
Wond'ring aloud
will the years treat us well
As she floats in the kitchen
I'm tasting the smell
of toast as the butter runs
Then she comes, spilling crumbs on the bed
and I shake my head
And it's only the giving
that makes you what you are

D'où vient le pouvoir que tu possèdes
Ton charme impérieux qui m'obsède
D'où vient que je vois tout resplendir
Et tout refleurir au gré de ton sourire?

Amapola l'oiseau léger qui passe
La rose et le lilas chantent ta grâce
Amapola l'onde où les cieux se mirent
N'a pas autant d'éclat que ton sourire
Le vent même t'apportant le poème
Que je lui ai confié ce soir pour toi
Amapola, Amapola, dans sa chanson te dira: "Je t'aime!"

Le soir lorsque l'ombre étend son voile
Je dis mon amour à chaque étoile
Et quand l'aube annonce enfin le jour
Au ruisseau qui court je chante le cœur lourd

Wonderous Stories


Wonderous Stories
Composer(s): Jon Anderson
Performer(s): Yes;
Bill Bruford; World Trade



I awoke this morning
love laid me down by a river
Drifting I turned on upstream
Bound for my forgiver
In the giving of my eyes to see your face
Sound did silence me
leaving no trace
I beg to leave, to hear your wonderous stories
Beg to hear your wonderous stories

He spoke of lands not far
or lands they were in his mind
Of fusion captured high
where reason captured his time
In no time at all he took me to the gate
In haste I quickly checked the time
if I was late I had to leave to hear your wonderous stories
Had to hear your wonderous stories

Hearing
Hearing
Hearing your wonderous stories
Hearing your wonderous stories
It is no lie I can see deeply into the future
Imagine everything
You're close
and were you there to stand
so cautiously at first and then so high
As he spoke my spirit climbed into the sky
I bid it to return
to hear your wonderous stories
Return to hear your wonderous stories

Hearing
Hearing
Hearing
Hearing
Hearing

A boy found a dream upon a distant shore
A maid with a way of whisp'ring "si senor"
Each night while guitars would softly play
The tune seemed to dance 'round the words that he'd say

Amapola, my pretty little poppy
You're like that lovely flow'r so sweet and heavenly
Since I found you, my heart is wrapped around you
And loving you, it seems to beat a Rhapsody

Amapola, the pretty little poppy
Must copy it's endearing charm from you
Amapola, Amapola, how I long to hear you say "I love you"

The boy left his love upon a distant shore
And sailed from the one his arms were longing for
He vowed he'd return one sunny day
Once more to repeat what his heart had to say

German Title: Wunderland Bei Nacht
Composer(s): Helmut Bruesewitz; Klaus Gunter Neumann
Performer(s): Bert Kaempfert;
and various other artists



Stars hang suspended above a floating yellow moon
Two hearts were blended while angels sang a lovers tune
And so we kissed not knowing if our hearts could pay the price
But heaven welcomed us to paradise blessing our love

Then came the sunrise fading the moon and stars from sight
Recalling always our wonderland by night

Stars hang suspended above a floating yellow moon
Two hearts were blended while angels sang a lovers tune
And so we kissed not knowing if our hearts could pay the price
But heaven welcomed us to paradise blessing our love

Then came the sunrise fading the moon and stars from sight
Recalling always our wonderland by night

Mit deinen siebzehn Jahren
Seh ich dich schon seit Tagen
Heimlich weinen
Sei nicht traurig
Die Erde dreht sich weiter
Auch wenn es anders kommt
Als wir grad meinen

Amapola
Verlass dich nicht auf Wunder
Denn ob du glücklich wirst
Liegt nur an dir
Amapola, Amapola
Wach aus deinen Träumen auf und lebe

Wondering Why


Wondering Why
Composer(s): Merl Saunders; Pam Carrier
Original Performer: Merl Saunders
Covered by: Jerry Garcia; Geoff Muldaur



If you're gonna keep on keeping me wondering
I'm a-gonna end up leaving you wondering
If you're gonna keep on shoving me back
I'm a-gonna make sure I never come back
You better tear down, tear down the wall darling
You better unwind, unwind yourself
Comes the day you'll need me
And I won't be up there on the shelf
Nowhere
Lord, nowhere

If you're gonna keep on keeping on baby
I'll be stepping, I'll be stepping on
If we can't get it, get it together
Then I'm gone, Lord I got to get goin'
If you're gonna keep on keeping me wondering
I'm a-gonna end up leaving you wondering
Wondering why
Lord, wondering why

If you're gonna keep on keeping on baby
I'll be stepping, I'll be stepping on
If we can't get it, get it together
Then I'm gone, Lord I got to get goin'
If you're gonna keep on keeping me wondering
Wondering why Lord, wondering why
Lord, wondering, wondering why
Lord, wondering why
Lord, wondering why

Diciéndome así, con su dulce canción

Será siempre mi alma tuya sola
Yo te quiero, amada niña mía
Igual que ama la flor, la luz del día

Amapola, lindísima Amapola
No seas tan ingrata y ámame
Amapola, Amapola
cómo puedes tu vivir tan sola

Yo te quiero...

Wondering Who


Wondering Who
Composer(s): Jackie Jackson; Randy Jackson
Performer(s): The Jacksons



I’ve got you wondering who
Look what you put me through!
No more planning to start anew
I’ve got you wondering who

I come to you to love you once again
But you never were around
How can you say that we were more than friends
When there’s no love to be found?
’Cause in my mind
I knew that you weren’t true
>From time to time
Look what you put me through!

I thought that you and I had seen the light
During the first time we met
Seem to be a sudden change in life
Is there a need for someone else?
’Cause in my mind
I knew that you weren’t true
From time to time
Look what you put me through!

Ohh......

Welcome to the night!
(Stop holding on, start being strong)
Stayed up all night!
(Stop holding on, ’cause love is gone)
Welcome to the night!
(Stop holding on, start being strong)
Stayed up all night!
(Baby, you’ve got to go!)

Buh! (Hee-hee-hee!)

I’ve got you wondering who
Look what you put me through!
No more planning to start anew
I’ve got you wondering who

I went along, thought it would be alright
Maybe it happened all too fast?
Lots of torrid danger hampered me
Left me crying all the time!

’Cause in my mind
I knew that you weren’t true
From time to time
Look what you put me through!

Ohh...

Welcome to the night!
(Stop holding on, start being strong)
Stayed up all night!
(Stop holding on, ’cause love is gone)
Welcome to the night!
(Stop holding on, start being strong)
Stayed up all night!
(Stop holding on, ’cause love is gone)

(Stop holding on, start being strong)
Hee-hee-hee, love is gone!
(Stop holding on, ’cause love is gone)
Hee-hee-hee, love is gone!
(Stop holding on, start being strong)
Hee-hee-hee, love is gone!
(Stop holding on, start being strong)
Hee-hee-hee, love is gone!
(Stop holding on, ’cause love is gone)
Hee-hee-hee, love is gone!
(Stop holding on, start being strong)
Hee-hee-hee, love is gone!
(Baby, you’ve got to go!!)
Buh!

1958 - Amapola (by Will Tura)

Amapola, il était une fois: Toi
Petite mélodie
Chanson d'amour

Amapola, les mots que tu ne dis pas
Ont la mélancolie
Des cœur trop lourds

Le bleu, le gris, de tes yeux couleur de pluie
C'est le reflet des larmes
De ceux qui s'aiment
Toutes ces larmes
Qui te réclament
Ta chanson, pour y pleurer quand même

Amapola, l'amour, je ne savais pas
Peut longtemps s'endormir
Aux creux d'un songe

Et puis, parfois, il s'éveille dans d'autres bras
Pour mieux nous souvenir
De ses mensonges

Amapola, ces rêves aussi dorment en toi
Et nos cœurs se souviennent
Mais ils retiennent
Ces larmes là, Amapola
Que les violons pleureront par toi

Amapola, Amapola
Une chanson pour tous ceux qui s'aiment

Wondering Where The Lions Are Composer(s): Bruce Cockburn Performer(s): Bruce Cockburn; and various other artists



Sun's up, uh huh, looks okay The world survives into another day And I'm thinking about eternity Some kind of ecstasy got a hold on me I had another dream about lions at the door They weren't half as frightening as they were before But I'm thinking about eternity Some kind of ecstasy got a hold on me Walls windows trees, waves coming through You be in me and I'll be in you Together in eternity Some kind of ecstasy got a hold on me Up among the firs where it smells so sweet Or down in the valley where the river used to be I got my mind on eternity Some kind of ecstasy got a hold on me And I'm wondering where the lions are... I'm wondering where the lions are... Huge orange flying boat rises off a lake Thousand-year-old petroglyphs doing a double take Pointing a finger at eternity I'm sitting in the middle of this ecstasy Young men marching, helmets shining in the sun, Polished as precise like the brain behind the gun (Should be!) they got me thinking about eternity Some kind of ecstasy got a hold on me And I'm wondering where the lions are... I'm wondering where the lions are... Freighters on the nod on the surface of the bay One of these days we're going to sail away, going to sail into eternity some kind of ecstasy got a hold on me And I'm wondering where the lions are... I'm wondering where the lions are...

Yo seré el viento que va

por amor por amor concebido
me perderé en un momento contigo
por siempre...

Seré tu héroe de amor
