Fröhliche Weihnachten! (Merry X-MAS!) - by Hénock Gugsa
by
Andrea Berg
Stille Nacht, heilige Nacht,
Alles schläft; einsam wacht
Nur das traute hochheilige Paar.
Holder Knabe im lockigen Haar,
Schlaf in himmlischer Ruh!
Schlaf in himmlischer Ruh!
Stille Nacht, heilige Nacht,
Hirten erst kundgemacht
Durch der Engel Halleluja,
Tönt es laut von fern und nah:
Christ, der Retter ist da!
Christ, der Retter ist da!
Stille Nacht, heilige Nacht,
Gottes Sohn, o wie lacht
Lieb' aus deinem göttlichen Mund
Da uns schlägt die rettende Stund'.
Christ, in deiner Geburt!
Christ, in deiner Geburt!
Alles schläft; einsam wacht
Nur das traute hochheilige Paar.
Holder Knabe im lockigen Haar,
Schlaf in himmlischer Ruh!
Schlaf in himmlischer Ruh!
Stille Nacht, heilige Nacht,
Hirten erst kundgemacht
Durch der Engel Halleluja,
Tönt es laut von fern und nah:
Christ, der Retter ist da!
Christ, der Retter ist da!
Stille Nacht, heilige Nacht,
Gottes Sohn, o wie lacht
Lieb' aus deinem göttlichen Mund
Da uns schlägt die rettende Stund'.
Christ, in deiner Geburt!
Christ, in deiner Geburt!

"Refugee" - by Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers
"Refugee"
~~~~ // ~~~~
by
Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers~~~~ // ~~~~
We got somethin' we both know it,
We don't talk too much about it
Ain't no real big secret, all the same,
Somehow we get around it
Listen, it don't really matter to me
Baby, you believe what you wanna believe
You see, you don't have to live like a refugee
Somewhere, somehow, somebody must have
Kicked you around some
Tell me why you wanna lay there,
Revel in your abandon
Honey, it don't make no difference to me
Baby, everybody's had to fight to be free
You see, you don't have to live like a refugee
No baby, you don't have to live like a refugee
Baby, we ain't the first
I'm sure a lot of other lovers been burned
Right now this ain't real to you
Its one of those things you got to feel to be true
Somewhere, somehow, somebody must have
Kicked you around some
Who knows, maybe you were kidnapped,
Tied-up, taken away, and held for ransom
Honey, it don't really matter to me
Baby, everybody s ha d to fight to be free
You see, you don't have to live like a refugee
No, you don't have to live like a refugee
Baby, you don't have to live like a refugee

Marina, Marina,

Je sais qu'il est bon d'être aimé Mais ne vas, mais ne vas, ne vas pas Courir au devant des baisers Sans être certaine Que l'on t'aime, que l'on t'aime Que l'on t'aime autant que toi même Oh non, non non, non non, non Si l'amour t'invite Ma petite te t'invite Ne réponds pas tout de suite Oh non, non non, non non, non L'amour n'est pas toujours ce que l'on pense Et quand on a le coeur plein d'impatience On sait très bien très bien quand ça commence Mais on oublie comment ça peut finir Marina, Marina, Petite Ecoute la voix de ton coeur Mais ne vas, ne vas pas trop vite Courir au devant du bonheur Ne vas pas trop vite, troppo vite, troppo vite Effeuiller la marguerite Oh non, non non, non non, non Sois tendre et coquette, Coq-coquette, coq-coquette, Mais ne perds jamais la tête Oh non, non non, non non, non Marina, Marina, Marina |

An Evening in Cortona, Italy - by TPO
An Evening in Cortona, Italy- 2008
(Una sera nella città di Cortona)
(Una sera nella città di Cortona)
with
André Rieu
~~~~~~ // ~~~~~~
L’italiano
composer: Toto Cutugno
~~~~~ // ~~~~~
Lasciatemi cantare
con la chitarra in mano
lasciatemi cantare
sono un italiano
Buongiorno Italia gli
spaghetti al dente
e un partigiano come
Presidente
con l'autoradio sempre
nella mano destra
e un canarino sopra la
finestra
Buongiorno Italia con i
tuoi artisti
con troppa America sui
manifesti
con le canzoni con amore
con il cuore
con piu' donne sempre
meno suore
Buongiorno Italia
buongiorno Maria
con gli occhi pieni di
malinconia
buongiorno Dio
lo sai che ci sono
anch'io
Lasciatemi cantare
con la chitarra in mano
lasciatemi cantare
una canzone piano piano
Lasciatemi cantare
perche' ne sono fiero
sono un italiano
un italiano vero
Buongiorno Italia che
non si spaventa
e con la crema da barba
alla menta
con un vestito gessato
sul blu
e la moviola la domenica
in TV
Buongiorno Italia col
caffe' ristretto**
le calze nuove nel primo
cassetto
con la bandiera in
tintoria
e una 600 giu' di
carrozzeria
Buongiorno Italia
buongiorno Maria
con gli occhi pieni di
malinconia
buongiorno Dio
lo sai che ci sono
anch'io
Lasciatemi cantare
con la chitarra in mano
lasciatemi cantare
una canzone piano piano
Lasciatemi cantare
perche' ne sono fiero
sono un italiano
un italiano vero.

Mi sono innamorato di
Marina
Una ragazza mora ma
carina
Ma lei non vuol saperne
del mio amore
Cosa faro' per
conquistar son cuor
Un girono l'ho
incontrata sola sola
Il cuotre mi batteva
mille all'ora
Quando le dissi che la
volevo amare
Mi diede un bacio e
l'amor sboccio'
Marina, Marina, Marina
Ti voglio al piu' presto
sposar
Marina, Marina, Marina
Ti voglio al piu' presto

Non mi devi rovinare
Oh, no, no, no, no, no
O mia bella amora

Non mi devi rovinare
Oh, no, no, no, no, no
Marina, Marina, Marina
Ti voglio al piu' presto
sposar

Ich bin der Welt abhanden gekommen - by Gustav Mahler
Ich bin der Welt abhanden gekommen (I
am lost to the world)
Composer: Gustav Mahler (1860-1911)
lied (song) based on poem by Friedrich
Rückert (1788-1866)
Czech mezzo-soprano, Magdalena
Kožená
Lucerne Festival Orchestra
Claudio Abbado, conductor
|
Ich bin der Welt abhanden gekommen,
Mit der ich sonst viele Zeit verdorben,
Sie hat so lange nichts von mir vernommen,
Sie mag wohl glauben, ich sei gestorben!
Ich bin der Welt abhanden gekommen!
Es ist mir auch gar nichts dran gelegen,
Ob sie mich für gestorben hält,
Ich kann auch gar nichts sagen dagegen,
Denn wirklich bin ich gestorben der Welt.
Ich bin der Welt abhanden gekommen!
Ich bin gestorben dem Weltgetümmel
Und ruh' in einem stillen Gebiet!
Ich leb' allein in meinem Himmel,
In meinem Lieben, in meinem Lied!
Ich bin der Welt abhanden gekommen
|
I am lost to the world
with which I used to waste so much time,
It has heard nothing from me for so long
that it may very well believe that I am dead!
I am lost to the world!
It is of no consequence to me
Whether it thinks me dead;
I cannot deny it,
for I really am dead to the world.
I am lost to the world!
I am dead to the world’s tumult,
And I rest in a quiet realm!
I live alone in my heaven,
In my love and in my song!
I am lost to the world!
