Bye 2012


Aquí vamos, una vez más :P 

Voy a despedir con mucho gusto este año... Precisamente porque fue caótico y nada benéfico. Sí, cumplí cuatro décadas en este mundo y dentro de lo que cabe, la salud no faltó en ninguno de los integrantes de mi familia. Pero, por mí, mandaría directamente a la mierda este moribundo 2012.

Olviden la lista de buenos propósitos y sólo ambicionen tener buena salud y a los suyos muy cerca. Lo demás, como siempre se dice, es lo de menos. Ah, eso sí, que el amor, en cualesquiera de sus formas, conceptos, interpretaciones varias y creencias, se mantenga presente en sus vidas y en todas y cada una de las cosas que hagan :)



A la mierda 2012.

Bienvenido 2013  :)

The seven rejoices of Mary





The first good joy that Mary had
It was the joy of one.
The first rejoice that Mary had
Was to see her new born son.

To see her new born son good man,

And blessed may he be.
Sing Father, Son and Holy Ghost,
To all eternity.
The next good joy that Mary had
It was the joy of two.
To see her son Jesus,
Make the lame to go.

The next rejoice that Mary had,

It was the joy of three.
To see her own son Jesus,
To make the blind to see.

To make the blind to see good man,

And blessed may he be.
Sing Father, Son and Holy Ghost,
To all eternity.

The next good joy our lady had,

It was the joy of four.
It was the rejoice of her dear son,
When he read the bible o'er.

The next good joy that Mary had,

It was the joy of five.
To see her own son Jesus,
To make the dead alive.

To make the dead alive good man,

And blessed may he be.
Sing Father, Son and Holy Ghost,
To all eternity.

The next rejoice our lady had,

It was the rejoice of six.
To see her own son Jesus,
To bear the crucifix.

The next good joy that Mary had,

It was the joy of seven.
To see her own son Jesus,
To wear the crown of heaven.

To wear the crown of heaven good man,

And blessed may he be.
Sing Father, Son and Holy Ghost,
To all eternity.

And glory may he be,

And blessed now be she.
And those who sing the seven long verses,
In honour of our lady.

Xmas 2012


Bien, el mundo no se acabó... No aparecieron los cuatro jinetes del Apocalipsis, ni zombies mayas que entonaran a coro: "Se lo dijimos" ;-) Podríamos firmar un pacto para que a todo aquel que nazca después de este año le aseguremos que somos sobrevivientes de un holocausto zombie, por ejemplo ;-) Podríamos no dejar la lista de benos propósitos para la Nochevieja, sino para ahora mismo, para realizarla y llevarla a cabo cueste lo que cueste. Eso sí que marcaría un cambio a nivel mundial :)

Podríamos intentar ser mejores personas, mejores hijos, padres, hermanos, parientes y amigos. Podríamos intentar dejar un mundo mejor a nuestros hijos y perseguir por sobre todas las cosas que se conviertan en mejores personas, no en las más adineradas, ni en las que más títulos universitarios consigan, sino las más felices, las más educadas, y con más valores. Adquirir y poner en función una mejor educación civil y empatía con el prójimo... Buscar ser triunfadores en el amor de nuestra familia.

Felices Fiestas para todos :) Yule, Hanukkah y Navidad.

Buried in the snow I'll wait for you




"The Christmas Song" - London After Midnight


In this world of snow and cold I'll hide
in this world of ice I've built with pride
of all things that I'd most like to receive
there's just one thing I really want this Christmas Eve
I believe, I believe it's you

I know you're out there waiting in the cold

all shimmering and blue and warm to hold
but if I try and really do believe
I'll get just what I'm waiting for this Christmas Eve
I believe, I believe it's you

Nothing can compare

nothing can come close to you
nothing can compare
nothing else will ever do

Buried in the snow I'll wait for you

and keep on wishing 'till my dreams come true
I feel your touch, it melts the world away
and we'll be together in the light of Christmas Day
far away, far away with you.


Del álbum "Oddities" (1998)





Porque la melancolía también brota en esta época. 

Porque enterrado aquí, en la nieve, él te esperará, deseando, anhelando que sus sueños se conviertan en realidad. 

Así suena la canción de Navidad.

When all our dreams come true



"Fairytale in New York" - The Pogues & Kirsty McColl


It was Christmas Eve babe
In the drunk tank
An old man said to me, won't see another one
And then he sang a song
The Rare Old Mountain Dew
I turned my face away
And dreamed about you

Got on a lucky one

Came in at eighteen to one
I've got a feeling
This year's for me and you
So Happy Christmas
I love you baby
I can see a better time
When all our dreams come true

They've got cars big as bars

They've got rivers of gold
But the wind goes right through you
It's no place for the old
When you first took my hand
On a cold Christmas Eve
You promised me
Broadway was waiting for me

You were handsome

You were pretty
Queen of New York City
When the band finished playing
They howled out for more
Sinatra was swinging,
All the drunks they were singing
We kissed on a corner
Then danced through the night

The boys of the NYPD choir

Were singing "Galway Bay"
And the bells were ringing out
For Christmas day

You're a bum

You're a punk
You're an old slut on junk
Lying there almost dead on a drip in that bed
You scumbag, you maggot
You cheap lousy faggot
Happy Christmas your arse
I pray God it's our last

The boys of the NYPD choir

Still singing "Galway Bay"
And the bells were ringing out
For Christmas day

I could have been someone

Well so could anyone
You took my dreams from me
When I first found you
I kept them with me babe
I put them with my own
Can't make it all alone
I've built my dreams around you

The boys of the NYPD choir

Still singing "Galway Bay"
And the bells are ringing out
For Christmas Day
