My love my darling
After the poem “Hotel” by Guillaume Apollinaire, published by Editions Gallimard
Many times I’ve whispered “amado mio” Would be to hold you and hold you tight
It was just a phrase Amado mio Ma chambre à la forme d’une cage My room is a cage
That I’d heard in plays Love me forever Le soleil passe son bras par le fenêtre The sun streams through the window
I was acting a part And let forever begin tonight Les chasseurs à ma porte The bellhops are at my door

Thomas M. Lauderdale, piano; Doug Smith, guiro + clave; Brian Davis, congas; Richard Rothfus, drums Qui veulent me prendre Who want to take me away
Je ne veux pas travailler I don’t want to work
Je ne veux pas dejeuner I don’t want to lunch
Je veux seulement oublier I want only to forget
Et puis je fume And then I smoke
Déjà j’ai connu le parfum de l’amour Long ago I knew the smell of love
Un million de roses A million roses
N’embaumeraient pas autant Couldn’t smell as sweet
Maintenant une seule fleur Now a single flower
Dans mes entourages In my way
Me rend malade Makes me sick
Je ne suis pas fier de ça I am not proud of this
Vie qui veut me tuer Life that wants to kill me
C’est magnifique It’s lovely
Être sympathique To be lovely
Mais je ne le connais jamais But I have never known this

When I was just a little girl When I was just a child in school
I asked my mother what will I be I asked my teacher what should I try Viniste a mi You came to me
Will I be pretty? Should I paint pictures? Como poesia en la cancion As poetry comes in song
Will I be rich? Should I sing songs? Mostandome And you showed me
Here’s what she said to me This was her wise reply Un nuevo mundo de passion A new world of passion
Que Sera Sera When I grew up and fell in love Amandome You loved me
Whatever will be will be I asked my sweetheart what lies ahead Sin egoismo y sin razon Without conditions or reasons
The future’s not ours to see Will there be rainbows Mas sin saber que era el amor While I, ignorant of the meaning of love
Que Sera Sera Day after day? Yo protegi mi corazon Protected my heart
Here’s what my sweetheart said El sol se fue The sun has set
Y yo cantando tu cancion And now I sing of you

Music and lyrics by Manuel Jiménez
published by EMI Blackwood Music o/b/o EMI Musical S.A

¿Donde estas, donde estas, Yolanda? Where are you, Yolanda?

¿Que paso, que paso, Yolanda? What happened, Yolanda?
Te busque, te busque, Yolanda I’ve looked for you, Yolanda
Y no estas, y no estas Yolanda And you’re not here, Yolanda
Tus ojos me miraron Your eyes gazed at mine
Tus labios me besaron Your lips kissed mine
Con ese fuego ardiente With desire and passion
Ardiente de mujer The passion of a woman
La luz de tu mirada The sparkle in your eye
El fuego de tus labios The fire of your lips
Flecharon a mi pecho Conquered my heart
y de ti me enamore And I fell in love with you
Me dicen que paseabas They tell me your were cruising around
En un carro Yolanda In your new car Yolanda
Muy guapa y arrogante Looking very pretty and proud
Y todos te silbaban And all the men whistled at you
Si un dia te encontrara If someday I find you
No se que puedo hacer I won’t know what will happen
No se me vuelvo loco I think I will go crazy
Si ya no te vuelvo a ver If I never see you again

Daiya no kokoro This diamond heart
Tsumetai Watashi no Cold heart of mine From my balcony I send
Kokoro no nakaniwa Not even an angel One, two, three and four kisses to the world
Don-na tenshimo Or the devil’s whispers of desire Over the docks of Piraeus fly
Akuma no sasayaki mo No man’s love One, two, three and four seagulls, I am told
Otoko no ainado Can ever reach my heart How much I’d love to have
Todokiya shinai One, two, three and four boys, proud and fine,

There is no one in the world, there is

 No one I don’t love Lullaby
And every night I close my eyes and I Music by China Forbes and Thomas M. Lauderdale
Sleep and I know published by Wow & Dazzle Music (BMI) / Thomas M. Lauderdale Music (ASCAP)
I’ll dream of them just like before
China Forbes, vocals; Thomas M. Lauderdale, piano
Jewels around my neck
A good-luck charm I carry
Because the night falls and I long
To find a perfect stranger
And seduce him with my song
So much I’ve tried
I’ve never found a port
To captivate my heart
As Pireaus does
And when the night falls
The air is filled with songs
With tunes and sounds and laughter
Bursting with life and youthful calls

Brazil
Music and lyrics by Ary Barroso
published by Peer International Corporation

Brazil — where stars were entertaining June And now when twilight dims the skies above
We stood beneath an amber moon Recalling thrills of our love
And softly murmured “someday soon” There’s one thing I am certain of
We kissed and clung together Return I will to old Brazil
Then tomorrow was another day
The morning found us miles away
With still a million things to say
