The Darkness - I believe in a thing called love

2008-10-13T00:37:00.001+02:00

Can't explain all the feelings that you're making me feel
My heart's in overdrive and you're behind the steering wheel

Touching you, touching me
touching you, god you're touching me

I believe in a thing called love
Just listen to the rhythm of my heart
There's a chance we could make it now
We'll be rocking 'til the sun goes down
I believe in a thing called love
Ooh!

I wanna kiss you every minute, every hour, every day
You got me in a spin but everythin' is A.OK!

Touching you, touching me
touching you, god you're touching me

I believe in a thing called love
Just listen to the rhythm of my heart
There's a chance we could make it now
We'll be rocking 'til the sun goes down
I believe in a thing called love
Ooh! Guitar!

Touching you, touching me
touching you, god you're touching me

I believe in a thing called love
Just listen to the rhythm of my heart
There's a chance we could make it now
We'll be rocking 'til the sun goes down
I believe in a thing called love
Ooh!

No te detengas

2008-10-13T00:22:00.000+02:00

Still looking for the original author and the English version...

No dejes que termine el día sin haber crecido un poco,
sin haber sido feliz, sin haber aumentado tus sueños.
No te dejes vencer por el desaliento.
No permitas que nadie te quite el derecho a expresarte,
que es casi un deber.
No abandones las ansias de hacer de tu vida algo extraordinario.
No dejes de creer que las palabras y las poesías
sí pueden cambiar el mundo.
Pase lo que pase nuestra esencia está intacta.
Somos seres llenos de pasión.
La vida es desierto y oasis.
Nos derriba, nos lastima,
nos enseña,
nos convierte en protagonistas
de nuestra propia historia.
Aunque el viento sople en contra,
la poderosa obra continúa:
Tu puedes aportar una estrofa.
No dejes nunca de soñar,
porque en sueños es libre el hombre.
No caigas en el peor de los errores:
el silencio.
La mayoría vive en un silencio espantoso.
No te resignes.
Huye.
"Emito mis alaridos por los techos de este mundo",
dice el poeta.
Valora la belleza de las cosas simples.
Se puede hacer bella poesía sobre pequeñas cosas,
pero no podemos remar en contra de nosotros mismos.
Eso transforma la vida en un infierno.
Disfruta del pánico que te provoca
tener la vida por delante.
Vívela intensamente,
sin mediocridad.
Piensa que en ti está el futuro
y encara la tarea con orgullo y sin miedo.
Aprende de quienes puedan enseñarte.
Las experiencias de quienes nos precedieron
de nuestros "poetas muertos",
te ayudan a caminar por la vida
La sociedad de hoy somos nosotros:
Los "poetas vivos".
No permitas que la vida te pase a ti sin que la vivas ...

If - Kipling

2008-10-08T10:10:00.000+02:00

If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too;

If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or being hated, don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise:

If you can dream - and not make dreams your master,
If you can think - and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same;

If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools:

If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it all on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breath a word about your loss;

If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: "Hold on!"

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with kings - nor lose the common touch,
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,
If all men count with you, but none too much;

If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds' worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!

******************************

Si guardas en tu puesto la cabeza tranquila,
cuando todo a tu lado es cabeza perdida.
Si tienes en ti mismo una fe que te niegan
y no desprecias nunca las dudas que ellos tengan.

Si esperas en tu puesto, sin fatiga en la espera.
Si engañado, no engañas.
Si no buscas más odio, que el odio que te tengan.
Si eres bueno, y no finges ser mejor de lo que eres.

Si al hablar no exageras, lo que sabes y quieres.
Si sueñas y los sueños no te hacen su esclavo.
Si piensas y rechazas lo que piensas en vano.
Si alcanzas el TRIUNFO ó llega tu DERROTA,
y a los dos impostores les tratas de igual forma.

Si logras que se sepa la verdad que has hablado,
a pesar del sofisma del Orbe encanallado.
Si vuelves al comienzo de la obra perdida,
aunque esta obra sea la de toda tu vida.

Si arriesgas de un golpe y lleno de alegría,
tus ganancias de siempre a la suerte de un día,
y pierdes, y te lanzas de nuevo a la pelea,
sin decir nada a nadie lo que eres, ni lo que eras.

Si logras que los nervios y el corazón te asistan,
aún después de su fuga, en tu cuerpo en fatiga,
y se agarren contigo, cuando no quede nada,
porque tú lo deseas, lo quieres y mandas.

Si hablas con el pueblo, y guardas la virtud.
Si marchas junto a Reyes, con tu paso y tu luz.
Si nadie que te hiera, llega a hacerte la herida.
Si todos te reclaman, y ninguno te precisa.

Si llenas el minuto inolvidable y cierto,
de sesenta segundos, que te llevan al cielo.
TODO lo de esta Tierra será de tu dominio,
Y mucho más aún ...

¡ Serás HOMBRE, hijo mío !

John Frusciante - Time Tonight

2008-10-07T14:28:00.003+02:00

Back home I thought of this song..

For changing lines
I've got no time tonight
In these times the wind surpasses the tide
when the wake ups hard to find
dreams make up for your life
This crazy shine it never lets you die
Growing up
We become what we want
Again the moon rises up too high
And we don't need the sky
Wonder what it is that makes the world turn slower
wonder what it is that makes me feel so mad
everyone that talks to me I so wish wouldn't
I wouldn't even care exept I feel so bad
I feel so bad
why is there noone in my life
time
there's no time tonight
Wide
there's no room to see wide
Time
There's no time tonight
There's noone in my life

Josh Rouse - Winter in the Hamptons

2008-10-05T01:33:00.001+02:00

Here we go
Singin' our songs with our soul
Winter has gone
Where do we belong
We have stayed too long

Friday night
So uptight we get stoned
Sit in the Hamptons
It is too cold
We have stayed too long

Spring is finally here
And we're so well dressed
It's a talent and it's our style
So put on your hat
Because the forecast is rain clouds

Never know
American scene's such a bore
Embarassing
Still, we are hangin' on
We have stayed too long

And we'll fly
Take a gypsy to Eurosize
Our money is gone
Where do we belong
We have stayed too long

Sick of livin' here
It's such a mess
'Cause the government they're all liars
So put on your hat
Because the forecast is rain clouds

Pink - Who Knew

2008-10-02T13:06:00.003+02:00

Another basic of this year, provided by Eva :) essential on Friday afternoons!!

You took my hand
You showed me how
You promised me you'd be around
Uh huh
That's right
I took your words
And I believed
In everything
You said to me
Yeah huh
That's right

If someone said three years from now
You'd be long gone
I'd stand up and punch them out
Cause they're all wrong
I know better
Cause you said forever
And ever
Who knew

Remember when we were such fools
And so convinced and just too cool
Oh no
No no
I wish I could touch you again
I wish I could still call you friend
I'd give anything

When someone said count your blessings now
'fore they're long gone
I guess I just didn't know how
I was all wrong
They knew better
Still you said forever
And ever
Who knew

Yeah yeah
I'll keep you locked in my head
Until we meet again
Until we
Until we meet again
And I won't forget you my friend
What happened

If someone said three years from now
You'd be long gone
I'd stand up and punch them out
Cause they're all wrong and
That last kiss
I'll cherish
Until we meet again
And time makes
It harder
I wish I could remember
But I keep
Your memory
You visit me in my sleep
My darling
Who knew
My darling
My darling
Who knew
My darling
I miss you
My darling
Who knew
Who knew

Editors - An end has a start

2008-09-30T15:00:00.000+02:00

Not my favourite, but still... today I am leaving Paris after a year, and Editors had a big role on my soundtrack, same as Maren. Thanks.

I don't think that it's
Gonna rain again today
There's a devil at your side
But an angel on her way

Someone hit the light
'Cause there's more here to be seen
When you caught my eye
I saw everywhere I'd been
And wanna go to

You came on your own
That's how you'll leave
With hope in your hands
And air to breathe

I won't disappoint you
As you fall apart
Some things should be simple
Even an end has a start

Someone hit the light
'Cause there's more here to be seen
When you caught my eye
I saw everywhere I'd been
And wanna go to

You came on your own
That's how you'll leave
With hope in your hands
And air to breathe

You lose everything
By the end
Still my broken limbs
You find time to mend

More and more people
I know are getting ill
Pull something good from
The ashes now be still

You came on your own
That's how you'll leave
With hope in your hands
And air to breathe

You lose everything
By the end
Still my broken limbs
You choose to mend

You came on your own
That's how you'll leave
You came on your own
That's how you'll leave

You came on your own

You came on your own

Joshua Radin - Sky

2008-09-29T15:00:00.000+02:00

I woke, dreaming we had broke
dreaming you left me
for someone new
and you cried, drying those brown eyes
crying you're sorry
sorry won't do, but
this is the way i need to wake
i wake to you
and you never left me, all that i'd dreamt had been untrue
open my eyes, i see sky
oh oh, oh oh, you know
the way to keep me on my toes
i, i , i... will be fine
just say you'll stay forever mine
til we fall asleep tonight

Last night, we had a great fight
I fell asleep in
horrible state

than dreamt that you loved my best friend
my heart would not mend
seemed it was fate but
this is the way i need to wake
i wake to you
and you never left me
all that I'd dreamt had been untrue
open my eyes, i see sky
oh oh, oh oh you know the way to keep me on my toes
i,i, i... will be fine
just say you'll stay mine forever
til we fall asleep tonight

sometimes i forget to love you
like i should, love you like i should
but i'd never leave you no i never would i never would
oh oh oh oh you know the way to keep me on my toes
i, i, i... will be fine
just say you'll stay forever mine
oh oh oh oh you know the way to keep me on my toes
i, i, i... will be fine
I will be fine
just say you'll stay forever mine.
til we fall asleep tonight
til we fall... asleep... tonight

Kenna - Sun Red Sky Blue

2008-09-29T01:20:00.001+02:00

Underneath your skin again
Right below your innocence
I can tell your hesitance
Let me heal the heart of it, my Love

give me your sun red sky blue, Love I'm falling into you
under a sun red sky blue

I see through you in this life
Your fingertips have stories fading
I believed I take flight with wings of wax and heart of ice
melted by your blessed eyes, angel hear my cries

Give me your sun red sky blue Love, I'm falling into you
Under a sun red, sky blue I'm giving into you

Raise your eyes
Leave blame in the past world
and heaven is in mind and you're here for something more.
It's 11:59 and I'm still believing
Yeah, I'm still believing

So give me your Sun red sky blue Love, I'm falling into you
under this sun red sky blue, Love

I'm giving into you
I'm giving into you
I'm giving into you
I'm falling into you

sun red sky blue
I'm falling into you
Giving into you
moving back to you

sun red sky blue

I'm giving into you

Ingrid Michaelson - The way I am

2008-09-26T10:49:00.002+02:00

If you were falling

Then I would catch you

You need a light

I'd find a match

Cause I love the way you say good morning

And you take me the way I am

If you are chilly

Here take my sweater

Your head is aching

I'll make it better

Cause I love the way you call me baby

And you take me the way I am

I'd buy you Rogaine

When you start losing all your hair

Sew on patches

To all you tear

Cause I love you more than I could ever promise

And you take me the way I am mmm

you take me the way I am

Jason Mraz - Clockwatching

2008-09-25T17:23:00.003+02:00

Take off, both your, shoes and clothes, I'll follow.

Undo, corkscrew, drink from the top of a broken bottle.

Lately we're running out of time, aren't we?

Smoking, often, and calling out our guilty pleasures,

Let's keep, talking, anything to stop clockwatching.

Lately we're running out of time, aren't we?

Crazy for running all the time, m-m-m-m-maybe.

Let's forget we're running out of time.

I'm off like an airplane,

I'm licking your postage stamp again.

I'm using my right brain and I'm praying that we don't crash.

Who knew I'd cum so fast.

Well so what if a two pump chump can't last.

But I made it to three, and I foreclose a five minute, fantasy.

On a short-lived flight, making love on economy

No jumping, conclusions,

I don't think there's no solution,

Let's get, backwards,

And forget our restless destination.

Let's live in this moment just this time, could we?

Just take one moment of our time m-m-m-m-maybe.

Let's forget we running out of time

I'm off like an airplane,

I'm catching my second wind again.

I'm using my left brain

And I'm righting all my wrongs.

I'm yearning to turn you on.

I've been working on getting you off, so get on board.

Well how can I guess by the subject of the best predicate that's left unsaid when the matter is too delicate.

My loneliness is evident.

And its you,

You're running through my mind and it makes me c-c-crazy cra-cra-crazy.

La la la

La la la la la

La la la (ooooooo, so amazing)

La la la la la laLa la la

Laaaa oh oh

Laaaaaa lo oh oh oh

Lady, dreamer, you might be the soundest sleeper,

Tonight, sleep tight, and build your nest upon my shoulder.

Amy Winehouse - Back to Black

2008-09-24T15:58:00.001+02:00

He left no time to regret
Kept his dick wet
With his same old safe bet
Me and my head high
And my tears dry
Get on without my guy
You went back to what you knew
So far removed from all that we went through
And I tread a troubled track
My odds are stacked
I'll go back to black

We only said good-bye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to.....

I go back to us

I love you much
It's not enough
You love blow and I love puff
And life is like a pipe
And I'm a tiny penny rolling up the walls inside

We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to

Black, black, black, black, black, black, black,
I go back to
I go back to

We only said good-bye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to

We only said good-bye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to black

Death Cab For Cutie - I will follow you into the dark

2008-09-23T09:39:00.002+02:00

Love of mine some day you will die

But I'll be close behindI'll follow you into the dark

No blinding light or tunnels to gates of white

Just our hands clasped so tight

Waiting for the hint of a spark

If Heaven and Hell decide

That they both are satisfied

Illuminate the NOs on their vacancy signs

If there's no one beside you

When your soul embarks

Then I'll follow you into the dark

In Catholic school as vicious as Roman rule

I got my knuckles bruised by a lady in black

And I held my tongue as she told me

"Son fear is the heart of love"

So I never went back

If Heaven and Hell decide

That they both are satisfied

Illuminate the NOs on their vacancy signs

If there's no one beside you

When your soul embarks

Then I'll follow you into the dark

You and me have seen everything to see

From Bangkok to Calgary

And the soles of your shoes are all worn down

The time for sleep is now

It's nothing to cry about'cause we'll hold each other soon

In the blackest of rooms

If Heaven and Hell decide

That they both are satisfied

Illuminate the No's on their vacancy signs

If there's no one beside you

When your soul embarks

Then I'll follow you into the dark

Pablo Neruda - Muere lentamente

2008-09-22T00:53:00.002+02:00

Dies slowly he who transforms himself in slave of habit,
repeating every day the same itineraries,
who does not change brand,
does not risk to wear a new color and doesn't talk to whom doesn't know.

Dies slowly he who makes of television his guru.

Dies slowly he who avoids a passion,
who prefers black to white
and the dots on the "i" to a whirlpool of emotions,
just those ones that recover the gleam from the eyes,
smiles from the yawns,
hearts from the stumbling and feelings.

Dies slowly he who does not overthrow the table when is unhappy at work,
who does not risk the certain for the uncertain
to go toward that dream that is keeping him awake.

Who does not allow, at least one time in life, to flee from sensate advises.

Dies slowly he who does not travel, does not read,
does not listen to music, who does not find grace in himself.

Dies slowly he who destroys his self love,
who does not accept somebody's help.

Dies slowly he who passes his days complaining of his bad luck or the incessant rain.

Dies slowly he who abandons a project before starting it,
who does not ask over a subject that does not know
or who does not answer when being asked about something he knows.

Dies slowly he who does not share his emotions, joys and sadness,
who does not trust, who does not even try.

Dies slowly he who does not relive his memories
and continues getting emotional as if living them at that moment.

Dies slowly he who does not intent excelling,
who does not learn from the stones of the road of life,
who does not love and let somebody love.

Let's avoid death in soft quotes,
remembering always that to be alive demands an effort much bigger
that the simple fact of breathing.

*************************

Muere lentamente quien se transforma en esclavo del hábito, repitiendo todos los días los mismos trayectos, quien no cambia de marca, no arriesga vestir un color nuevo y no le habla a quien no conoce.

Muere lentamente quien hace de la televisión su gurú.

Muere lentamente quien evita una pasión, quien prefiere el negro sobre blanco y los puntos sobre las "íes" a un remolino de emociones, justamente las que rescatan el brillo de los ojos, sonrisas de los bostezos, corazones a los tropiezos y sentimientos.

Muere lentamente quien no voltea la mesa cuando está infeliz en el trabajo, quien no arriesga lo cierto por lo incierto para ir detrás de un sueño, quien no se permite por lo menos una vez en la vida, huir de los consejos sensatos.

Muere lentamente quien no viaja, quien no lee, quien no oye música, quien no encuentra gracia en sí mismo.

Muere lentamente quien destruye su amor propio, quien no se deja ayudar.

Muere lentamente, quien pasa los días quejándose de su mala suerte o de la lluvia incesante.

Muere lentamente, quien abandona un proyecto antes de iniciarlo, no preguntando de un asunto que desconoce o no respondiendo cuando le indagan sobre algo que sabe.

Evitemos la muerte en suaves cuotas, recordando siempre que estar vivo exige un esfuerzo mucho mayor que el simple hecho de respirar.

Solamente la ardiente paciencia hará que conquistemos una espléndida felicidad

Coldplay - Viva la vida

2008-09-22T00:44:00.000+02:00

I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the morning I sweep alone
Sweep the streets I used to own
I used to roll the dice
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing:
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"
One minute I held the key
Next the walls were closed on me
And I discovered that my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt, pillars of sand

I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Roman Catholic choirs are singing
Be my mirror my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
Once you go there was never, never an honest word
That was when I ruled the world

It was the wicked and wild wind
Blew down the doors to let me in.
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
People could not believe what I'd become
Revolutionaries Wait
For my head on a silver plate
Just a puppet on a lonely string
Oh who would ever want to be king?

I hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Roman Catholic choirs are singing
Be my mirror my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world

(Ooooh Oooh Oooh)

Hear Jerusalem bells are ringing
Roman Catholic choirs are singing
Be my mirror my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
I know Saint Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world

If your right hand is causing you pain
Cut it off cut it off
If your colours have started to run
Let them all run, run away from you
There is lightning in this room
Above our heads waiting to strike
Im a thinker not a talker
Put your faith, your faith in God

We were hoping for some romance
All we found was more dispair
We must talk about our problems
We are in a state of Flux

Id kill for an adventure
Just you and I in the Curzon Bar
Dancing till we knew
So all that we've learnt disappeared
When you shouted at me
I saw my father in the second grade
Concerned and kind
But yet unable to reach me

We were hoping for some romance
All we found was more dispair
We must talk about our problems
We are in a State of Flux

State of Flux [x9]

We need to talk [x5]

We were hoping for some romance
All we found was more dispair
We must talk about our problems
We are in a state of Flux

DeVotchka - How it ends

2008-09-20T01:00:00.000+02:00

Hold your grandmother's Bible to your breast.
Gonna put it to the test.

You want it to be blessed.
And in your heart,
You know it to be true,
You know what you gotta do.
They all depend on you.
And you already know.
Yeah, you already know how this will end.

There is no escape,
From the slave-catchers' songs.
For all of the loved ones gone.
Forever's not so long.
And in your soul,
They poked a million holes.
But you never lettem show.
C'mon it's time to go.

And
You
Already know.
Yeah, you already know
How this will end.

Now you've seen his face.
And you know that there's a place,
In the sun,
For all that you've done,
For you and your children.
No longer shall you need.
You always wanted to believe,
Just ask and you'll receive,
Beyond your wildest dreams.

And
You
Already know.
Yeah, you already know
How this will end.

You already know (You already know)
You already know (you already know)
You already love will end.

Después de llevar meses buscando, he logrado encontrar un nuevo fármaco antidepresivo que me está ayudando a entender mejor las cosas de mi puesto de trabajo y estar mas relajada en el.

Desde que lo tomo parezco otra persona, estoy mas tranquila y no me altero por cualquier cosa, soy capaz de organizarme mejor y no tengo tanto trabajo atrasado, incluso estoy haciendo jornada intensiva.

Este nuevo medicamento ya está disponible en todas las farmacias y se vende sin receta.

Ah¡ se me olvidaba, va de maravilla para la conciliación familiar.

Motion City Soundtrack - Fell in love without you

2008-09-19T01:01:00.002+02:00

Acoustic

Last night I fell in love without you.
I waved goodbye to that heart of mine
Eating solo on your lawn

Every aching wound will cauterize and bruise
In memory of what we used to call in love
And only time will tell if violins will swell
In memory of what we used to call in love
Used to call it love

Last night I fell in love without you
The cou de gras that set me off
Would've made for decent fiction

Every aching wound will cauterize and bruise
In memory of what we used to call in love
And only time will tell if violins will swell
In memory of what we used to call in love
Used to call it...

Last night I fell in love without you
The stars at night aren't as big and bright
As you make them out to be

Every aching wound will cauterize and bruise
In memory of what we used to call in love
And only time will tell if violins will swell
In memory of what we used to call in love
In memory of when we used to call it love

There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle (Albert Einstein, Physicist)

You make what seems to be a simple choice: choose a man or a job or a neighborhood -and what you have chosen is not a man or a job or a neighborhood, but a life (Jessamyn West, Writer)

All is pattern, all life, but we can't always see the pattern when we are part of it (Belva Plain, Writer)

You do what you can for as long as you can, and when you finally can't, you do the next best thing. You back up, but you don't give up (General Chuck Yeager, Test Pilot)

Dredg - Bug Eyes

2008-09-16T16:12:00.001+02:00

Acoustic version

Bring back those good ol' days

Nothing feels right

Nothing ever goes my way

I threw my future away

Now I walk alone

Out here in the cold

Wandering astray

Where's my future?

I'm gonna need a home

You'd expect the same, now wouldn't you, wouldn't you?

Your journey back to birth its haunting you it's haunting you

Your departure from the earth, its haunting you, it's haunting you

Only those who accept will find that acceptance in return

When you've been trimmed down like hedges,and told just to sit, and wilt, and spit at each other from a distance

With constant resistance from you

Gonna need a home

You'd expect the same now wouldn't you, wouldn't you?

Your journey back to birth is haunting you, it's haunting you

Your departure from the earth is haunting you, it's haunting you

It's been ten years strong, thats much too long

It's time to do something good for my health

Time to do somethin' good for myself

It's been ten years strong, thats much too long

It's time to do something good for my health

Time to do somethin' good for myself

I've wasted all this time, I've wasted all this time

Your journey back to birth is haunting you, it's haunting you

You departure from the earth is haunting you, it's haunting you

Your journey back to birth is haunting you, it's haunting you

Your departure from the earth is haunting you, it's haunting you

Brian Eno - By this river

2008-09-16T16:05:00.003+02:00

Here we are stuck by this river

You and I underneath a sky

Thats ever falling down down down

Ever falling down

Through the day as if on an ocean

Waiting here always failing to remember

Why we came came came

I wonder why we came

You talk to me as if from a distance

And I reply with impressions chosen

From another time time time

From another time

Praan

2008-09-16T15:59:00.000+02:00

A classic to start with. Love this bangla song (and the video is ok too..)

Bhulbona ar shohojete

Shei praan e mon uthbe mete

Mrittu majhe dhaka ache

je ontohin praan

Bojre tomar baje bashi

She ki shohoj gaan

Shei shurete jagbo ami

(Repeat 3X)

Shei jhor jeno shoi anonde

Chittobinar taare

Shotto-shundu dosh digonto

Nachao je jhonkare!

Bojre tomar baje bashi

She ki shohoj gaan

Shei shurete jagbo am

(English translation)

The same stream of life that runs through my veins night and day
runs through the world and dances in rhythmic measures

It is the same life that shoots in joy through the dust of the earth
in numberless blades of grassand breaks into tumultuous waves of leaves and flowers

It is the same life that is rocked in the ocean-cradle of birthand of death, in ebb and in flow

I feel my limbs are made glorious by the touch of this world of life
And my pride is from the life-throb of ages dancing in my blood this moment
