  7. Silvio Rodriguez - Ojala ( If only) Translation I hope the leaves won't touch your body when they fall So that you won't be able to turn them into crystal I hope the rain stops being a miracle that runs down your body I hope the moon could come out without you I hope the soil won't kiss your every step (Chorus) I hope you'll stop having that constant gaze The precise words, that perfect smile I hope something that will erase you suddenly, happens A blinding light, a snow shot I hope that at least death will take me with it So I won't have to see you so much So I won't have to see you all the time Every second, In every vision I hope I won't be able to touch you, not even in songs [1] I hope the dawn won't utter screams that fall on my back I hope your name will be forgotten by that voice I hope the walls won't keep in the noise of your weary walking I hope this desire will be gone with you Towards your old reign made of dead people and flowers (Chorus) I hope something that will erase you suddenly, happens A blinding light, a snow shot I hope that at least death will take me with it So I won't have to see you so much So I won't have to see you all the time ( it seems he's referring to the continuous , in the past, , showing of Fidel on Cuban TV) Every second, In every vision I hope I won't be able to touch you, not even in songs

  10. Carlos Varela - Habaname Original Lyrics Mirando un album de fotos de la vieja capital, desde los tiempo remotos de La Habana colonial. Mi padre dej su tierra y cuando al Morro llego, La Habana le abri sus piernas y por eso nac yo. Habana, Habana si bastara una cancion para devolverte todo lo que el tiempo te quit. Habana,mi Habana si supieras el dolor que siento te canto y no entiendes que es amor. Escuchando a Matamoros desde un lejano lugar la Habana guarda un tesoro que es difcil olvidar. Y los aos van pasando y miramos con dolor, como se va derrumbando cada muro de ilusion. Habana, Habana si bastara una cancion para devolverte todo lo que el tiempo te quit. Habana,mi Habana si supieras el dolor que siento te canto y no entiendes que este llanto es por amor. Translation Looking at a photo album of the old capital from the remote times of Colonial Havana my father left his country and when he got to the Morro Havana opened her legs and that's how I was born Havana Havana if a song was enough to give you back everything that Time took away Havana, my Havana if you knew the pain that I feel when I sing about you and you don't understand this is love Listening to Matamoros from a place far away Havana attends a treasure that it's difficult to forget And the years go by and we watch with pain how all the walls of delusion go crumbling Havana Havana if a song was enough to give you back everything that Time took away Havana Havana if you knew the pain that I feel when I sing about you and you don't understand this cry is for love

Habana, si mis ojos te abandonaran... si la vida me desterrara a un rincon de la tierra yo te juro que voy a morirme de amor y de ganas de andar tus calles, tus barrios y tus lugares...

Virgen del camino, nuevo vedado residencial lugares, destinos... Faro del morro y la catedral Barrios pequeños y llenos de tradiciones y emociones... Sabanas blancas colgada en los balcones Sabanas blancas colgada en los balcones Translation Havana, my old Havana Lady of History, Conquerors and People with its religions, beautiful Lady Havana, if my eyes should abandon you if Life should confine me to a corner of the Earth I swear I'm going to die of Love and Desire of walking your streets, your neighborhoods, your places Cuatro caminos, virgen de regla, puerto de mar places, destinations.... the long shoreline wall, the capitol and the Prado with its lions, its visions white sheets hanging from the rooftops white sheets hanging from the rooftops Havana, my great Havana habit to walk around the ceiba ( tropical trees?) at night and parties in homes of modern and poor neighborhoods of noble people Havana, if my eyes should abandon you if Life should confine me to a corner of the Earth I swear I'm going to die of Love and Desire of walking your streets, your neighborhoods, your places Virgin of the path, nuevo vedado residencial ( neighborhood) places, destinations The Morro lighthouse and the Cathedral small neighborhoods and filled with traditions and emotions white sheets hanging from the rooftops white sheets hanging from the rooftops
