Please I need the lyrics of a letra, I tried searching on the web but I didn't find anything, and I don't speak spanish yet so I won't be able to take them out 100%.. Any help would be appreciated!
It's: Diego del Morao, 'Drunji' (Tango), from his Album "Orate".
RE: Lyrics needed please. [&:] (in reply to LucianoGhosn)
Even if you learn Spanish, sometimes is really difficult if not impossible to understand some lyrics if your are not Spanish, specially in palos without guitar or siguiriyas. But tangos is a smooth style and they are perfectly understanable.
The song is 'El aire llega'. The singer is Niña Patori and the guitarist is Diego el Morao.
Spanish Lyrics:
Tarde de abril, Dejo de llover brisa buena campo de miel.
suena tu tierra vuela el ay!* Tócame Diego que te quiero ver.
Digo la verdad y Y el aire que me llega sale de tus manos. ¡Tu corazon tan puro no existe gitano!. Santiago está cantando Y tu Juana sale bailando. (Bis)
nainarainara nainarainara
And this is more or less the traslation.
April Afternoon. It has stopped rainning. Dark skinned breeze. Field of honey.
Your ground sounds. The 'Ay'* flies. ¡Play for me, Diego! I want to see you.
I tell the true: The air that caresses me comes from your hands.
A so pure heart as yours does not exist, Gypsy! Santiago** sings and yours Juana starts dancing.
nainarainara nainarainara
* Reference to the comon 'Ay' sounds from flamenco singuers. Other versión say "huele a jerez": It smells like Jerez.
**Santiago is Jack in Spanish. Juana is Jane in Spanish.
I hope you enjoy it. Lyrics and singers are the most important part in flamenco.
Hey! I don't know how to thank you for this really... I understand what you mean it is really difficult to know what are they exactly saying in the lyrics sometimes, especially for people who don't speak spanish.. :p Again, thank you so much my friend, and also for the translation!
