  • Linda Ronstadt - "La Cigarra"

    La Cigarra..(huapango)..LINDA RONSTADT Y MARIACHI VARGAS.




    English translation

    The Cicada

    Don’t sing to me anymore, cicada
    Let your singsong end
    For your song here in my soul
    Stabs me like a dagger
    Knowing that when you sing
    You are announcing that you are going to your death.

    Sailor, sailor
    Tell me if it is true that you know,
    Because I cannot distinguish,
    Whether in the depths of the seas
    There is another color blacker
    Than the color of my sorrows.

    A little dove came flying
    That bore a wounded breast
    Now almost crying
    Said to me very afflicted
    Now I am weary of searching for
    A mutual love.

    Under the shade of a tree
    And to the beat of my guitar
    I sing this huapango joyfully
    Because my life is finished
    And I want to die singing
    As the cicada dies

    Linda Ronstadt - "When I Grow Too Old to Dream"




    "When I Grow Too Old To Dream"

    We have been gay
    Going our way
    Life has been beautiful
    We have been young
    After you've gone
    Life will go on
    Like an old song we have sung

    When I grow too old to dream
    I'll have you to remember
    When I grow too old to dream
    Your love will live in my heart

    So kiss me my sweet
    And so let us part
    And when I grow too old to dream
    That kiss will live in my heart

    And when I grow too old to dream
    Your love will live in my heart
    Oh your love will live in my heart
