Le revois-tu mon âme, ce Boule Miche d’autrefois
Et dont le plus beau jour fut un jour de beau froid:
Dieu: s’ouvrit-il jamais une voie aussi pure
Au convoi d’un grand mort suivi de miniatures?

Tous les grognards – petits – de Verlaine étaient là,
Toussotant, Frissonnant, Glissant sur le verglas,
Mais qui suivaient ce mort et la désespérance,
Morte enfin, du Premier Rossignol de la France.

Ou plutôt du second (François de Montcorbier,
Voici belle lurette en fut le vrai premier)
N’importe! Lélian, je vous suivrai toujours!
Premier? Second? vous seul. En ce plus froid des jours.

N’importe! Je suivrai toujours, l’âme enivrée
Ah! Folle d’une espérance désespérée
Montesquiou-Fezensac et Bibi-la-Purée
Vos deux gardes du corps, – entre tous moi dernier.

Jumping with my boy, Sid
right here in the city.
Don’t you know that is was grand?
Really grand, so grand.
And then you came along,
then you came along, boy.
And sang your groovy song,
sang a song and I asked:

Mr. Whatchacallem, whatcha doing tonight?
Hope you’re in the mood
because I’m feeling just right.
How’s about a corner
with a table for two?
Where the music’s mellow
is a gay rendezvous.
There’s no chance romancing
with a blue attitude.
You know you got to do some dancing
to get in the mood.

Mr. Watchacallem, I’m indebted to you.
You’re here. It goes to show what
good influence can do.
Never felt so happy or so fully alive.
He’s a jam a jumpin’, it’s a powerful jive!
Swing-a-roo is giving me a new attitude.
My heart is full of rhythm
and I’m in the mood.

In the mood (oh boy) be mine forever.
In the groove (that boy) and leave me never.
In the mood (oh joy) give me some kissing.
You know it won’t be long
before you’re in the mood!

Don’t be rude, I love you madly.

It’s up to you, I’ll take you gladly.
Love is blind, my vision’s hazy.
It didn’t take me long to say
I’m in the mood!

Do ba do ba do bop boo da da day.
Ba da-n-da da-n do da-n do day.
Who’s that guy with the beautiful eyes?
‘N’ look at those lips, I’d try ‘em for size.
Hey! Swing with me!
What a wing it’d be!
May I intrude? It’s time to dance
and I’m in the mood!

Oh, hold me darling, let’s dance.
What a dreamy romance.
It’s a quarter to three.
There’s a mess-o-that moon.
Let’s share it with me.
You know, I think it’s rude
to keep me this way
when I’m in the mood.
I’m in the mood, in the groove!
In the mood, ah, ah, ah!

Man-oh-man, wow!
Like, you really got me lookin’.
Oh, and you really got me cookin’, oh!

My heart went flip, my brain went skip.
I said c’mon, c’mon, c’mon,
c’mon, c’mon, c’mon.
I’m hot now! Oh boy! I love you madly!
Right now! Oh boy! I’ll take you gladly!
Tight now! Oh boy! I’ll be in!
And now I’m really in the mood, boy!
 

(Bette Midler)


 

T’will be cold tonight
Sun did shine, the day was short
Summer died today
Noone else but me could
feel it

I hold your hand you drift away
The more I beg you here to stay
I watch me losing you
As I say
You are the one

So I close my eyes and fall
Into the darkest place of all
Close my eyes for no more tears
Thought that nothing brings me down
Now that I’m so close to the ground
I hope all sorrow disappears

I pray the sun to shine
Pray the shade to go away
But this my light has gone
This my sun
has gone forever

I hold your hand you drift away
The more I beg you here to stay
I watch me losing you as I say
You are the one

So I close my eyes and fall
Into the darkest place of all
Close my eyes for no more tears
Thought that nothing brings me down
Now that I’m so close to the ground
I hope all sorrow disappears

I hold your hand you drift away
The more I beg you here to stay
I watch me losing you as I say
You are the one

So I close my eyes and fall
Into the darkest place of all
Close my eyes for no more tears
Thought that nothing brings me down
Now that I’m so close to the ground
I hope all sorrow disappears
 

cucurucucu…

Dicen que por las noches
Nomas se le iba en puro llorar,
Dicen que no comia,
Nomas se le iba en puro tomar,
Juran que el mismo cielo
Se estremecia al oir su llanto;
Como sufrio por ella,
Que hasta en su muerte la fue llamando

Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay,… cantaba,
Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay,… gemia,
Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay,… cantaba,
De pasión mortal… moria

Que una paloma triste
Muy de manana le va a cantar,
A la casita sola,
Con sus puertitas de par en par,
Juran que esa paloma
No es otra cosa mas que su alma,
Que todavia la espera
A que regrese la desdichada

Cucurrucucu… paloma,
Cucurrucucu… no llores,
Las piedras jamas, paloma
¡Que van a saber de amores!
Cucurrucucu… cucurrucucu…
Cucurrucucu… paloma, ya no llores

(Gaetano Veloso)
