Ramona
Helmut Zacharias Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I wander out yonder o'er the hills
Where the mountains high
Seem to kiss the sky
Someone is out yonder, o'er the hills
Waiting patiently, Waiting just for me

Ramona, I hear the mission bells above
Ramona, they're ringing out our song of love
I press you, caress you, and bless the day you taught me to care
To always remember the rambling rose you wear in your hair
Ramona, when day is done you'll hear my call
Ramona, we'll meet beside the water fall
I dread the dawn when I awake to find you gone
Ramona I need you my own

Let's wander out yonder o'er the hills
By a babbling brook
Where we'll find a nook
To build our own love nest, o'er the hills
Darling of my heart, Never more to part

Ramona, I hear the mission bells above
Ramona, they're ringing out our song of love
I press you, caress you, and bless the day you taught me to care
To always remember the rambling rose you wear in your hair
Ramona, when day is done you'll hear my call
Ramona, we'll meet beside the water fall




I dread the dawn when I awake to find you gone
Ramona I need you my own

Helmut Zacharías y sus Violines Mágicos fue una de mis orquestas favoritas en mi niñez, además él mismo era el solista de su propia orquesta.

Linda Parra Grande

Bellísima música, que siendo niña mi padre y su buen gusto hizo de mi infancia algo inolvidable y mágico al escuchar a grandes músicos y orquestas.

José Juan Guajardo Martínez

En mi infancia la escuché parcialmente, pues no era bien aceptada en la familia ya que el nombre de la melodía era el de la primera esposa de mi papá adoptivo y a mi mamá le molestaba oírla. Hasta que llegué a la Universidad logré oírla completa y precisamente en la versión del violinista Helmut Zacharias. Después pude conocer otras versiones y acabé de confirmar que se trata de una hermosa melodía procurando desde entonces tenerla en la lista de mis favoritas, con el debido respeto a la memoria de mi mamá adoptiva.

Olga Fernandez

Melodía de años atrás y nunca pasará de ser maravillosa

VICTOR PAZ

Helmut Zacharias es indudablemente  un violinista virtuoso  que siempre escuche desde mi niñez hasta ahora,  y sigue siendo incomparable

Rafael Morales Magaña

estas melodías de Helmut Zacharias las escuchaba al arribar a la adolescencia. Cada una de ellas me trae imborrables recuerdos de Xalapa, Veracruz. Creo que esta orquesta es sencillamente inigualable, única.

Susana Rossi

QUE BELLEZA EL VIOLIN.ME HACE RECORDAR OTROS TIEMPOS TAN HERMOSOS, QUE NO VOLVERSN.GRACIAS

Olga Fernandez

Música incansable y celestial que me hace regresar a un lindo y hermoso pasado que he vivido. PALMAS A ESTE GRAN MAESTRO que sabe como complacerme

Olga Fernandez

Ramona es una canción que hace estremecer todos mis sentidos recordándome aquellos hermosos tiempos vividos y que jamás volverán. Gracias MI MAESTRO DE MAESTROS HELMUT ZACHARIAS

Zoraida Mejía Casella

Wow, cuántos recuerdos de mi niñez. Mi padre lloraba mucho con ésta melodía ya que era la canción de mi abuela, ella murió cuando mi padre tenía 10 años. Creo jamás se pudo resignar.
