Durme, Durme with Vismaya Lhi - soprano & Dusan Bogdanovic - guitar

All of the videos in this series were shot at the historic Presidio Chapel in San Francisco in a single short session. They are essentially real time 'jazz' improvisations based on the harmonic structure, melody, words and feeling of a folk song; they are not intended to be understood as performances based on tradition. Malcolm Cecil was the videographer. Vismaya Lhi and Jaromy Russo were the audio engineers.

Durme, durme
mi alma donzella
durme, durme
sin ansia y dolor
durme, durme
sin ansia y dolor.

Heq tu sclavo tanto dezea
ver tu sueño con grande amor
ver tu sueño con grande amor.

Hay dos años que sufre mi alma
por ti, joya, mi linda dama
por ti, joya, mi linda dama.

Siente, siente al son de mi guitarra
siente, hermosa, mis males cantar
siente, hermosa, mis males cantar.

Sleep, sleep
My beloved damsel
Sleep, sleep
Without anxiety or pain
Sleep, sleep
Without anxiety or pain

Here is your slave, who deeply wishes
To watch over your sleep with the greatest of love
To watch over your sleep with the greatest of love

For two years my soul has suffered
Because of you, my jewel, my beautiful lady
Because of you, my jewel, my beautiful lady

Listen, listen to my guitar
Listen, beautiful lady, my evils to sing
Listen, beautiful lady, my evils to sing
