LA GOLONDRINA - NANA MOUSKOURI

[HILDAYMARIO1]

CUANDO ESCUCHÉ ESTA CANCIÓN CON ELLA, PENSÉ EN QUE A MI MAMÁ LE GUSTARÍA ESCUCHARLA, SE LA LLEVÉ, PERO YA NO LA ALCANCÉ CON VIDA, ME HIZO LLORAR TANTO, CADA QUE LA ESCUCHO... CARAY...

[jakelic]

what a greta duet it should be, Nana and great Solomon king

[julie1776]

VERSE 1 IN ENGLISH:

Where will she go, (so) fast and fatigued, the swallow who's leaving here?

For if in the wind she finds herself lost, searching for shelter, she won't find it.

Next to my sleeping place, I will put her nest, in which she may pass the season

I too am in the region of the lost; oh heavenly sky, and unable to fly.

[julie1776]

VERSE 2 IN ENGLISH:

I also left my beloved homeland, that mansion which saw me born.

My life today is errant and anguished, and I can't return to my mansion any more.

Beloved bird, darling wanderer, I will always draw my heart close to yours;

I will hear your call, tender swallow; I'll recall my homeland and I will cry.

THANK YOU SO MUCH for Nana of Greece and her beautiful performance of Narciso Serradell Sevilla's "La Golondrina"! Regards!

[diko62656]

Very beautiful voice and song.



[leukarable]

Gracias por tan hermosa canción me hace evocar la salida de la casa paterna, los sentimientos de ese momento y el futuro incierto que me esperaba, han pasado loa años y gracias a Dios me ha ido bien y lo más hermoso puedo volver a mi hogar. Gracias Ulis amigo, hermoso regalo.

[GomezLaPaz]

Esta melodía es de origen moro y el músico francés Théodore Dubois la tomó para su ópera 'Aben Hamed' (1884), es un mito eso que un tal Narciso Serradel de origen mexicano la compuso

[cucarachavengadora]

@GomezLaPaz Hagas lo que hagas y digas lo que digas, esta cancion es mexicana. Y todo el mundo lo sabe, asi que anda a tirar tu veneno a otro lado.

[Marloable]

LA LETRA LA COMPUSO NICETO ZAMACOIS ESCRITOR ESPAÑOL Y LA MUSICA NARCISO SERRADEL VERACRUZADOS QUE EN EL EXILIO UNO EN MEXICO Y EL SEGUNDO EN FRANCIA SE REFUGIARON UNO EN LA LETRA Y OTRO EN LA MUSICA ANTE LA IMPOSIBILIDAD DE REGRESAR A SUS PAISES

[GomezLaPaz]

Quienes duden que el tal Narciso Serradel se robó está vieja melodía les invito a escuchar esta antigua versión, solo copie y pegue . . . "La Golondrina" (The Swallows), Carlos Francisco with orch.

[Marloable]

@GomezLaPaz NO SE LA ROBO SOLO LE PUSO LA BELLISA MUSICA A LETRA QUE COMPUSO NICETO DE ZAMACOIS, NO HAY QUE PELEARSE COMPAÑEROS

[Judexy22]

Absolutely beautiful !

[GomezLaPaz]

Preciosa melodía del siglo 15, de origen moro (musulmán), narra las desventuras de Ben Ahmed que fue expulsado de España cuando los moros fueron vencidos y expulsados. Un tal Narciso Serradel siglos después registró esta melodía como propia.

[vlissingse]

Lovely! Thanks! The pictures of hard-working migrants say it all... First heard this in 1963 on a UNESCO compilation record; migrated to the U.S., found it again on Napster (thanks to my son) and now here, thanks to you. Migration is HARD, and I even wasn't looking for "a better life", just followed a man.

It was sung on the funeral of Prince Bernhard of the Netherlands (who was German and loved Mexico) and yes, it will be played on mine too

[cucacasa]

Esta es mi canción favorita. En el día de mi despedida quiero que todos mis seres queridos escuchen esta canción.Me encanta.

[TheJuanagui]

Gracias dios mio por escuchar esta bella voz

[SuperTeply]

superbe mélodie!!et une voix exceptionnelle

[eaglerare22]

Beautiful & Moving. Did you ever hear this in the movie, "The Wild Bunch" (American movie with William Holden made in 1969 - directed by Sam Peckinpaugh)? Very, very touching scene as the main characters leave on horseback from a small Mexican village.

[jomaemta]

One of the most beautiful songs ever written, it was composed many years ago by a mexican doctor Narciso Serradell Sevilla and its spanish original name is "LA GOLONDRINA", which means the swallow and while the original words are too sad and melancholic, anyway the melody is 24 karat golden. In mexico it is played every time someone is departing as a farewell. the voice of Nana Mouskouri is unusually beautiful.

[Jigaboo123456]

@jomaemta pardon me-- I meant to reply to Gomez  La Paz

[darkoroyorbison]

@jomaemta Thank you for this comment! Also, this song is more known in Mexico as "Las Golondrinas" /but there are more other songs titled as "La Golondrina" and/or "Las Golondrinas", but they are just DIFFERENT songs. Regards, collector of "La Golondrina" versions w.wide. Also, so sad, so far I know, Nana Mouskouri has not this song in Greek language.

[GomezLaPaz]

Vieja melodía de origen moro, su letra nos expresa el sentimiento de un moro expulsado de España en 1492, a decir verdad faltan versos.

[LouisDE1]

Interesting how the French interpretations of this song, "Cet anneau d'or" and L'anneau d'amour" are so different. The French versions by Patrick Normand, Les Gendarmes, etc. are about a man hoping that the wedding ring he placed on his love's finger will be a reminder of how much he misses her and wants her back.

[GomezLaPaz]

@LouisDE1 Deberás escuchar a Elvis & She wears my ring, es la misma vieja melodía de origen moro a la que le sobran autores

[martintoscano1]

@GomezLaPaz Tu lo haz dicho, cuando una pieza es buena le sobran autores pero todo dependiendo: si hubiese sido compuesta en el otro lado del charco no hubiera problema. A muchos les cuesta trabajo aceptar que en Latinoamerica hay gente capaz de componer bellas piezas.

[orielgb]

Beautiful - just beautiful!

[AnaJilK]

Amazingly beautiful song... Very tuneful, neatly performed by Nana Mouskouri... Thanks so much for sharing! ♫♪♫♪♫

[Judexy]

Very beautiful indeed !

[anofelesmal]

Bella cancion para despedir a los vivos y a los muertos según la tradición mexicana. Gracias por publicarla.

[vipergurn]

oh how I love this song

[guillermo4856]

[guillermo4856]

Es una canción hermosa , nunca la olvide desde que la escuche por primera vez en la Universidad , fue al término de un campamento de recreación , al reflexionar sobre ella creo que estaba al igual que la golondrina en ese momento . sin ningun futuro.

[salvatoriedad]

Un video relizado con mucho arte. Enhorabuena. *****

[makithecat]

Gracias para palambras y mucho gracias para video, salvatorie....
