My favorite scene from the series Romanza final :-)) It's nice... Thank you for the reminder...

I have read that some of these scenes actually parallel real events that occured in Jose Carreras's life, including:

-The death of Gayarre's mother (Carreras also lost his mother at a young age), and

-Gayarre's severe illness (which somehow foreshadowed Carreras's battle with leukemia about a year after this film was released).

Jose Carreras can cheer anyone up. :) This scene is very ironic. Just one year later, Carreras would be staring death in the face, but, luckily, death turned away from him. :)

My eyes are full of tears!

So much power, beauty and passion!

This is probaly the best record of Jose Carreras.

Thank you very much dear inmylife9 for uploading this video!

Thanks to "toinmylife9" for posting and to usarra for translating. Lacking a DVD with libretto and subtitles (which I would be eager to buy), this is the only avenue for keeping the work alive until the DVD is issued.

Muchas gracias!

[usarra]

vive que es lo primero que en este mundo debes hacer

vive porque es lo menos que el hombre tiene que defender

sueña que eres el dueño de la belleza que es inmortal

sueña sueña de dia porque de noche nunca es verdad

anda que en la tierra hay todavia mucho que hacer

anda que el mundo entero te esta esperando para crecer

no le temais a la muerte

aunque la muerte os ataque

sin renunciar a la vida

ni habra quien os asuste ni nadie que nos mate

[usarra]

el mundo ya esta muy lleno y el que se marcha es un loco que sin luchar por sus indicios se cansa de este juego y deja el mundo atras vive,vive ,vive,vive!!! vive,vive,vive,vive!!! no mirar nunca hacia atras quien quiere ser el primero vive!!!!!.......... te esta esperando la vida no malgastes el don que te ofrece vivas la horas que vivas ,con pasion canta y espera sin temor a la mañana que vendra

[usarra]

live that is the first that in this world have todo

live because it is the least that the man has to defend

dream that you are owner of the beauty that is inmortal

dreams dreams of day
