Moliendo Café
Martin Zarzar Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Cuando la tarde languidece, renacen las sombras
Y en la que todos los cafetales vuelven a sentir
Esta triste cancion de la vieja molienda
Que en el letargo de la noche parece gemir
Cuando la tarde languidece, renacen las sombras
Y en la que todos los cafetales vuelven a sentir
Esta triste cancion de la vieja molienda
Que en el letargo de la noche parece gemir
Una pena de amor y una tristeza
Lleva el sambo Manuel en su amargura
Pasa la noche incansable moliendo cafe
Cuando la tarde languidece, renacen las sombras
Y en la que todos los cafetales vuelven a sentir
Esta triste cancion de la vieja molienda
Que en el letargo de la noche parece gemir
Una pena de amor y una tristeza
Lleva el sambo Manuel en su amargura
Pasa la noche incansable moliendo cafe
Cuando la tarde languidece, renacen las sombras
Y en la que todos los cafetales vuelven a sentir
Esta triste cancion de la vieja molienda
Que en el letargo de la noche parece gemir
Que en el letargo de la noche parece gemir




Que en el letargo de la noche...
Parece gemir.

Цветочные объятья
Так приятны....
Ведь знаешь-
Не бывает просто так.
И в чувствах
Есть одна закономерность.
Когда любовь -
Не кажется пустяк
Тогда...
Любовь благодарит тебя за верность...

Полупустое
Кафе ,, Лагуна " -
В нём засиделись
Вдвоём,я и ты,
Ещё немного
И в искушеньи
Дождусь поцелуя...
Меня каснутся
Губы твои.
Играет тихо оркестр,
Мы с тобой танцуем,
Пьянит хмельно
Ожиданье любви,
Ты взглядом
Меня ласкаеш,
Испепеляют страстью
Глаза твои.
Дурманит голову
Искушенье,
Вино искрясь
Нас кружит,
Но мы танцуем
Надеясь втайне
На ночь любви.
Ах,это полупустое
Кафе ,,Лагуна".
Нас обояло,
Нам обещая
Забывшись в танце
Очнуться утром
В твоих объятиях
От поцелуев,
Купаться в счастье
И вспоминая
Волшебную
Ночь любви...
Ну а пока
Мы в полупустом
Кафе,,Лагуна",
И топят в страсти
Меня глаза твои,
С последним аккордом
Уйдет в ночь оркестр,
Оставив момент
Нам для поцелуя,
Чтобы обнявшись
И мы улетели
В страстную ночь
Неуёмной любви.

"When the evening languishes the shadows are reborn
And in the stillness the coffee plantations feel again
A sad love song from the old grind
In the lethargy of the night seems to say
When the evening languishes the shadows are reborn
And in the stillness the coffee plantations feel again
A sad love song from the old grind
That in the lethargy of the night seems to say
A pity of love, a sadness
He has the club manuel in his bitterness
Spend the night grinding coffee
When the evening languishes the shadows are reborn
And in the stillness the coffee plantations feel again
This sad love song from the old grind
That in the lethargy of the night seems to say
That in the lethargy of the night seems to say
When the evening languishes the shadows are reborn
In the… "
