Ma solitude

Imagen
  Canción  del cantautor francés Georges Moustaki, lanzada en 1966.    Letras Pour avoir si souvent dormi avec ma solitude, Je m'en suis fait presque une amie, une douce habitude. Elle ne me quitte pas d'un pas, fidèle comme une ombre. Elle m'a suivi ça et là, aux quatres coins du monde. Non, je ne suis jamais seul avec ma solitude. Quand elle est au creux de mon lit, elle prend toute la place, Et nous passons de longues nuits, tous les deux face à face. Je ne sais vraiment pas jusqu'où ira cette complice, Faudra-t-il que j'y prenne goût ou que je réagisse? Non, je ne suis jamais seul avec ma solitude. Par elle, j'ai autant appris que j'ai versé de larmes. Si parfois je la répudie, jamais elle ne désarme. Et, si je préfère l'amour d'une autre courtisane, Elle sera à mon dernier jour, ma dernière compagne. Non, je ne suis jamais seul avec ma solitude. Non, je ne suis jamais seul avec ma solitude.

  Balada folclórica irlandesa escrita en 1979 por Pete St. John Ambientada durante la hambruna de 1840, la letra presenta a un hombre de Athenry, en el condado de Galway , que robó comida para su familia y fue sentenciado a ser deportado a la colonia penal australiana.  Letra: By a lonely prison wall I heard a young girl calling Michael they have taken you away For you stole Trevelyan's corn So the young might see the morn Now a prison shop lies waiting in the bay Low lie the fields of Athenry Where once we watched the small free birds fly Our love was on the wing We had dreams and songs to sing It's so lonely round the fields of Athenry By a lonely prison wall I heard a young man calling Nothing matters, Mary, when you're free Against the famine and the crown I rebelled, they cut me down Now you must raise our child with dignity By a lonely harbour wall She watched the last star falling As the prison ship sailed out against the sky For she lived in hope and pray For her ...

Cycles

   Versión instrumental interpretada por Henry Mancini de la canción escrita en 1968 por Gayle Caldwell  popularizada por Frank Sinatra  . Letra So I'm down and so I'm out But so are many others So I feel like tryin' to hide My head 'neath these covers Life is like the seasons After winter comes the spring So I'll keep this smile awhile And see what tomorrow brings I've been told and I believe That life is meant for livin' And even when my chips are low There's still some left for givin' I've been many places Maybe not as far as you So I think I'll stay awhile And see if some dreams come true There isn't much that I have learned Through all my foolish years Except that life keeps runnin' in cycles First there's laughter, then those tears But I'll keep my head up high Although I'm kinda tired My gal just up and left last week Friday I got fired You know it's almost funny But things can't get worse than now So I'...
