LA TREGUA - Mario Benedetti

"Lunes 24 de febrero

Es evidente que Dios me concedio un destino oscuro. Ni siquera cruel. Simplemente oscuro. Es evidente que me concedió una tregua. Al principio, me resistí a creer que eso pudiera ser la felicidad. Me resistí con todas mis fuerzas, después me di por vencido y lo creí. Pero no era la felicidad, era sól una tregua".

Me encantan las letras, probablemente porque siempre dicen cosas que nosotros no podemos o, mejor, no nos atrevemos a decir.
YA ES MITTWOCH, BIEEEENNNN.

Hola a todos. Como veis, la semana está ya casi terminada y antes de darnos cuenta, llega el fin de semana.

Os quería pedir una sugerencia, si os parece, si alguien quiere mandar las letras de alguna de las canciones o su traducción, se publicarán aquí.

Insisto en que se aceptan sugerencias para poder aprender entre todos un poco más acerca de la música. Sirven cualquier estilo y época musical, incluso también breves explicaciones acerca de los artistas a los que os refirais.

Agradezco muchísimo el interés que algunas personas ponen en este blog. La verdad que anima a seguir.

Un beso a todos.

A bottle of white, a bottle of red
Perhaps a bottle of rosé instead
We'll get a table near the street
In our old familiar place
You and I - face to face
A bottle of red, a bottle of white
It all depends upon your appetite
I'll meet you any time you want
In our Italian Restaurant.

Things are okay with me these days
I got a good job, I got a good office
Got a new wife, got a new life
And the family is fine
We lost touch long ago
You lost weight - I did not know
you could ever look so nice after so much time.

Do you remember those days hanging out at the village green?
Engineer boots, leather jackets and tight blue jeans
Drop a dime in the box play a song about New Orleans
Cold beer, hot lights, my sweet romantic teenage nights

Brenda and Eddie were the popular steadies
And the king and the queen of the prom
Riding around with the car top down and the radio on
Nobody looked any finer
Or was more of a hit at the Parkway Diner
We never knew we could want more than that out of life
Surely Brenda and Eddie would always know how to survive.

Brenda and Eddie were still going steady in the summer of '75
When they decided the marriage would be at the end of July
Everyone said they were crazy
"Brenda you know that you're much too lazy
and Eddie could never afford to live that kind of life."
Oh, but there we were wavin' Brenda and Eddie goodbye.

Well they got an apartment with deep pile carpets
And a couple of paintings from Sears
A big waterbed that they bought with the bread
They had saved for a couple of years
They started to fight when the money got tight
And they just didn't count on the tears.



Well, they lived for a while in a very nice style
But it's always the same in the end
They got a divorce as a matter of course
And they parted the closest of friends
Then the king and the queen went back to the green
But you could never go back there again.

Brenda and Eddie had HAD it already by the summer of '75
From the high to the low to the end of the show
For the rest of their lives
They couldn't go back to the greasers
The best they could do was pick up their pieces
We always knew they would both find a way to get by
OHHH that's all I heard about Brenda and Eddie
Can't tell you more 'cause I've told you already
And here we are wavin' Brenda and Eddie goodbye.

A bottle of reds, a bottle of whites
Whatever kind of mood you're in tonight
I'll meet you anytime you want
In our Italian Restaurant.


Mucha traducción es esto, vamos a confiar en que todos dominamos el inglés. Lo bueno que tiene esta canción es que tiene como tres partes totalmente diferentes. Pero para apreciar a este hombre hay que ser fan y quedan pocos. Anda de gira por su país y el mu capullín no se le ocurre visitarnos, claro que irían cuatro carcas como yo y algún despistao que se confundió en el servicaixa. Buenos saludos y guten tag.
