Aquellos ojos verdes

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4893dV5gX2k “Aquellos ojos verdes”. Ερμηνεύει ο μοναδικός Αφροκουβανός Ιμπραχίμ Φερέρ. Aquellos ojos verdes De mirada serena Dejaron en mi alma Eterna sed de amar Anhelos de caricias De besos y ternuras De todas las dulzuras Que sabias brindar Aquellos ojos verdes Serenos como un lago En cuyas quietas aguas Un día me mire No saben las tristezas Que en mi alma han dejado Aquellos ojos verdes Que yo nunca olvidare Anhelos de caricias… Que yo nunca olvidare

Those Green Eyes

Those green eyes With their calm look Leave in my soul The eternal thirst of love. Yearning for caresses, Kisses and tenderness Like all of the sweetnesses To which you knew to drink. Those green eyes Calm like a lake In their quiet waters One day look at me They didn’t know the sadness That were left in my soul Those green eyes that I will never forget Yearning for caresses That I will never forget The song, a bolero, was written in 1929 and recorded in Cuba the same year. It was the only major hit, both originally in Cuba and then again in the Latin community in New York for Cuban pianist Nilo Menéndez (Matanzas, 26 September 1902 – Los Angeles, 15 September 1987). The lyrics were supplied by Cuban tenor Adolfo Utrera.
