I loved (J'aimais)

I loved the princess of a fairytale
I loved the floating fairy
I loved the fire and the gentleness
I dreamt of you already back then
 
I climbed towers to watch
So that I could see my love from far away
I loved the sound of steps
I waited for you already back then
 
I loved the waving ocean
The grass rocked by a swell
I saw the fun play of the algae
And so I knew you'd come
 
I loved so fiercely
I loved the night until morning
Others can never love like that
Like I loved you
 
I loved summer, the hotness of it
The nights when thunder rumbled
When the light of a lightning hit you in the face
I scorched you already back then
 
I loved the drizzling rain
The misty, blue1 landscape
I loved the moaning of the wind
I worried for you already back then
 
I loved the grapevine
The raving of the nightly city
I listened to the hum of a stream
And then I forgot you at last

When We Loved

When we loved as we once loved, my love—
from month of May to month of May, every day.
Our hearts took all the chances, relishing every taste
of the ripe fruits of our twenty years —now that I think of it.
 
We could have met again—just now—
and begun to love anew as before—
when your youth in my arms—was already crying—
but you—you did not know that.
 
When we loved as we once loved, my love—
from month of May to month of May, every day.
It was like a Sunday that will never end—
like a springtime amidst bending lilacs.
 
When will the month of May come back for us, my love?
I know I will return to you evermore—
and in the sunshine discover again that I love you—
I will love you as we once loved.
 
I will love you as we once loved.
 

Alligator Rita

How well does Alligator Rita dance!
The Alligator!
 
has two things
Which Havana does not have
A very beautiful history
And one Rita the Alligator
 
How well does Alligator Rita dance!
The Alligator!
 
Everyone who comes to Bayamo,
A true national monument,
Looks for Alligator Rita
Just to get to see her dance
 
How well does Alligator Rita dance!
The Alligator!
 
Rita... I don't know what she has
With all her movements
She looks like a dry frog
That gets swept away by the wind
 
How well does Alligator Rita dance!
The Alligator!
 
The day that battered Bayamo
and
And it came from Rita
 
How well does Alligator Rita dance!
The Alligator!
 
Rita mounted an ox,
And almost on the verge of drowning,
But since she can be depended upon
On its back she went on dancing
 
How well does Alligator Rita dance!
The Alligator!
 
The day when Rita got lost
I was lost myself, too
Rita is a French fry
Who can dance in any café
 
How well does Alligator Rita dance!
The Alligator!
 
How well does Alligator Rita dance!
The Alligator...
 
Hear, Rita dances, the Alligator
In the park Alligator Rita
How well does Alligator Rita dance
Upon the blue stage box
How well does Alligator Rita dance
Hear, look, hear
 
How she sings
How she dances
Hey, look
Alligator Rita
 
How well does Rita 'the Alligator' dance,
the Alligator

A Rose Of Black

Versions: #2
1.
Moonlight in midnight saluted stars flashing
A candle was crying wasting last wax
Night as a chaplain started ritual action
Marrying White Rose to Rose of Black
 
R
The young White Rose dropped her clear tears,
An icy cold grew in heart and blood.
But it was late to run away from there.
She got Black Rose getting his black love.
 
2.
Night was too dark for the little White Rose.
A fiddler played music for wedding event.
The sky looking black and stars of white glow
Listened his playing but heard how she wept
 
R
The young White Rose dropped her clear tears,
An icy cold grew in heart and blood.
But it was late to run away from there.
She got Black Rose getting his black love.

Rose of Black is the Rose of sorrow,
Rose of White is a symbol of love.
People for ages try to couple them, though
Happiness have not been found by none.
 

I Only Love You

Maybe this time
It's not me anymore
That you hurt
 
Maybe there's no more
Me in this world
You are an angel
 
At night when the longing comes
Every time I try
To forget you
 
There's always you there
Saying to me
That I am there in your life
 
It's not that I want to create distant
Nor do I hate...
 
...You
It's not my intention
To hurt you
It's not my style
 
It's true
I only love you
But it's not my destiny
To be with you
 
If
Every steps of mine
End here
Forever
Allow me to go
 
At night when the longing comes
Every time I try
To forget you
 
There's always you there
Saying to me
That I am there in your life
 
It's not that I want to create distant
Nor do I hate...
 
...You
It's not my intention
To hurt you
It's not my style
 
It's true
I only love you
But it's not my destiny
To be with you
 
If
Every steps of mine
End here
Forever
Allow me to go
 
Allow me to go
Allow me to go
 

Laima

Laima, Laima, Laima, Laima*
Let’s go to the countryside to live there
We can, we can, we can, we can
Wonderfully arrange our life
 
Nature, nature, nature, nature
We’re gonna see through every window
We gotta, we gotta, we gotta, we gotta
Take a more serious look at the lack of fresh air
 
Laima!
Laima?
Laima!
 
Laima, Laima, Laima, Laima
Let’s go to the countryside to live there
We can, we can, we can, we can
Wonderfully arrange our life
 
The city, the city, the city, the city
We’ll exchange for cheese, curd and butter
Our consciousness, our consciousness, our consciousness, our consciousness
We’re gonna cleanse from the petty bourgeois absurdities
 
Laima!
Laima?
Laima!
 
Laima, Laima, Laima, Laima
Let’s go to the countryside to live there
We can, we can, we can, we can
Wonderfully arrange our life
 
A garden, a garden, a garden, a garden
A decent one we’re gonna plant for the future
Twelve, twelve, twelve, twelve
Sons and daughters we’ll raise for the republic
 
Laima!
Laima?
Laima, Laima, Laima, Laima
