Mouskouri Nana Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Rest forever here in our hearts
The last and final moment is yours
That agony is your triumph
The lyrics of Nana Mouskouri's song "Here's to You" pay tribute to two individuals, Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti. Sacco and Vanzetti were two Italian immigrants who were wrongfully convicted and executed for the murder of two men during a robbery in Massachusetts in 1927. Their trial was controversial and is widely believed to have been influenced by anti-immigrant and anti-anarchist sentiment. Many people, including Nana Mouskouri, believe that Sacco and Vanzetti were innocent and unfairly sentenced to death.
"Here's to you, Nicola and Bart, rest forever here in our hearts" expresses the sorrow and respect that many people continue to hold for Sacco and Vanzetti, even decades after their execution. The last two lines, "The last and final moment is yours, that agony is your triumph," suggest that despite their unjust deaths, Sacco and Vanzetti were able to maintain their dignity and honor in the face of persecution and injustice.
Overall, "Here's to You" is a powerful tribute to two men who were unfairly condemned by the American justice system. It is a reminder of the ways in which systemic prejudice and discrimination can harm innocent people and of the importance of supporting justice and equality for all.

Here's a toast to you, Nicola and Bart
Let's raise a glass in honor of Nicola and Bart
May you always be remembered in our hearts
May we hold fond memories of you in our hearts forever
The moment of your passing was your victory

Quand j'étais enfant (51 ans maintenant et certainement tjrs aussi "con") j'avais honte de déclarer à mes copains que j'adorai Nana pour ses chansons et sa voix dont je suis ému dans cette interprétation une fois de plus en dehors de la médiatisation des restos et des pointures de musique contemporaines même si c'est pour la bonne cause .Cette chanson est intemporelle est défends les innocents .

Il n'y a pas d'âge pour être "con". 55 balais et fier de l'être (parfois) ;-). Belle soirée.

J'aime beaucoup Nana Mouskouri : C'est une Diva très engagée ...
@Nomifan
Je ne suis pas fan de Mouskouri, ni des enfoirés, mais je reconnais que ce passage est absolument magnifique.
Il l'est d'autant plus que je comprends maintenant les paroles et le sens de la chanson.
Quand j'étais petit, dans les années 70, j'entendais "Nicole a et bas", mais heureusement que je ne connaissais pas la vérité.
