Ignacio Copani - Milonga para quedarse versuri traducere în engleză
Milonga to stay
There are people who would leave today,
because they really believed
that they would have much money
there at the United States.
But there are others who go for broke
and don't take any dream as lost...
and never ever reject
the places where they grew.
Without gas, nor water, nor light,
I'm staying in Lanus.
There won't be many roads,
many well drawn lanes,
nor many foreign cars,
nor enlightened bridges.
Nor tunnels under water,
nor surveillance on the platform...
But the train that sometimes passes
leaves me close to home.
In the middle of the road (I stay)
in Ramos Mejía.
They say that in Europe
there's so many elegant people,
with a good brand of clothes,
the fashion always ahead.
But I don't see the grace
of the girls I find here,
the grace, not of the brand,
but of what one takes within...
With the same pants (of always)
I stay in Moron.
They offered my brother
a very prized porition
working as a waiter
on the golden caribbean.
But he who was the flag bearer
and graduated of the university,
prefers to be a lawyer
in his city even for free.
My brother also stays
in Avellaneda.
There are mystics who suspect
that God attends in the Vatican
and if you go over there
surely he will give a helping hand...
The hand comes heavy
and if god wen't down, he'd hang
the miraculous medal
to who earns four bucks a day
With my endless hope (I stay)
in San Martin.
Or else, I stay in Varela,
Vicente Lopez or Ituzaingó
or in my schoolyard
of Ciudadela that taught me...
That coming from the belts
that circle the capital
squeeze well the balls
to endure that it's all bad.
For wine and a choripan
On the way to Luján.
I start with Liniers...
On a bounce to Moreno, passing by Merlo
and the plate station of Paso del Rey...
Long live Temperley and the Buenos Aires people
who endure and grow within the law
like in Laferrer, Alsina and Catán
and all the neighbourhood that now are not
in this song but they're present
in all the fronts of my heart...
And if I achieve success... I'm moving to Pilar...

Doctor Faust
Oh, Doctor Faust
Behind you, do you see all these years you've spent wasting your life?
It's time for you to let yourself live life
Oh, Doctor Faust
Diving like this into dead languages, that's not life
If you spend time with them, living languages will revive you
Oh, Doctor Faust
Science is a well where you drown yourself, if you want my opinion
Descend into the well of pleasure because that's life
Oh, Doctor Faust
Leave your Talmudic and astrologic studies behind
Instead, prepare a thesis on my anatomy
Oh, Doctor Faust
Throw your books away, forget Latin, smile at live
In my arms, you'll get to know love and life
Oh, Doctor Faust
I like your physique, leave physics behind, discover life
Looking together, in physical love, the meaning of life
Oh, Doctor Faust
Oh, Doctor Faust
I like your physique, leave physics behind, discover life
Looking together, in physical love, the meaning of life

On board of the Aspasia
You traveled in pursuit of your destiny
To white but mournful Switzerland
Always in the deck in a chez-lung downstairs
by the familiar and saddest cause
Always restlessly your folks have been prowling around
But you, staring at the wings, were indifferent
You laughed bitterly at what they said because you felt
That you were travelling to the land of death
One night when we were passing through Stroboli
You said to some laughing man in a joking tone:
'How my sick body looks as it burns,
to the flaming top of the volcano!'
Then I saw you in Marcilia as you were lost
in the noise without turning back
And I who loved only the wet expanse,
I say I could love thee

Gramophonomaniac
In room of miss Janka
winders and curtains tremble
Like in a fury there a gramophone plays
Because miss Janka is a gramophone maniac
From morning to morning constantly plays.
Syrena’s records are still brought by miss Janka,
She puts all of her money in it and continues to sing
And I play on gramophone
trali tralalla la, trali
tralalla la
In winter at home, in the summer on the balcony
trali tralalla la, gramophone plays
And nothing worries me,
I have Syrena’s records
When something annoys me - I play on the gramophone
Because when I play on the gramophone
then in gramophone I have my all concerns
Neighbours of miss Janka, their wives and lovers declared, not being able to sleep at night:
We have enough of miss Janka,
that gramophone maniac,
the police needs to know about it
But when the officer came, miss Janka says
What to do, man, understand I’m afraid to sleep alone
And when I play on the gramophone
trali tralalla la, trali
tralalla la
In winter at home, in the summer on the balcony
trali tralalla la, gramophone plays
And nothing worries me,
I have Syrena’s records
When something annoys me then I play on the gramophone
Because when I play on the gramophone
then in gramophone I have all of my concerns
As soon as the strict officer heard it himself and wanted to give advice to the poor maiden
He says to miss Janka, that gramophone maniac
„A pity, I will sleep here”
And since then every night from miss Janka’s room
The bas of officer makes the curtains tremble
And I play on gramophone
trali tralalla la, trali
tralalla la
In winter at home, in the summer on the balcony
trali tralalla la, gramophone plays
And nothing worries me,
I have Syrena’s records
When something annoys me - I play on the gramophone
Because when I play on the gramophone
then in gramophone I have my all concerns
singable

At the End of the Park
When sunset
makes the sky grow pale,
from the window,
I look around me.
At the end of the park, I see you
searching for me
like one evening
a year ago.
I watch you from afar and
in your hand,
there's
hidden more than one caress.
At the end of the park, I see you
running towards me,
of course,
I know it.
It's only an impression,
a trick of my heart
that makes me see
all this.
Tenderness
is something that
grows deep
in the soul.
If I remember
and if only
I think about you:
At the end of the park, I see you
searching for me
like one evening
a year ago.
I watch you from afar and
in your hand,
there's
hidden more than one caress.
At the end of the park, I see you
running towards me
and this time,
I know it.
You're no longer an impression,
a trick of my heart,
I've found
you again.
(At the end of the park, I see you
searching for me
like one evening
a year ago.)
At the end of the park, I see you
searching for me
like one evening
a year ago.
At the end of the park, I see you
searching for me...
