La Paloma
Artist: Julio lglesias Una canción me recuerda aquel ayer
Cuando se marchó en silencio un atadecer
Se fué con su canto triste a otro lugar
Dejó como compa?era mi soledad.
Una paloma blanca me canta al alba
Viejas melancolías, cosas del alma
llegan con el silencio de la ma?ana
Y cuando salgo a verla vuela a su casa.
Dónde va? que mi voz
Ya no quiere escuchar,
Dónde va? que mi vida se apaga
Si junto a mi no está.
Si quisiera volver
Yo la iría a esperar
Cada día,
cada madrugada
Para quererla más.
| 鸽子
演唱 胡里奥 伊格莱西亚斯 当我离开可爱的故乡哈瓦那，
你想不到我是多么悲伤。
天上飘着明亮的七色的彩霞，
心爱的姑娘靠在我身旁；
亲爱的我愿同你一起去远洋，
像一只鸽子在海上自由飞翔；
跟你的船帆在海上乘风破浪，
你爱着我啊像一只小鸽子一样。
亲爱的小鸽子啊，请你来到我身旁，
我们飞过蓝色的海洋，走向遥远的地方。
当我回到家乡哈瓦那好地方，
是你唱着歌儿等候我在岸旁；
母亲我在异乡多么想念你，
每天每夜把这离别的歌儿唱；
亲爱的我愿随你同去远航，
像一只鸽子在海上自由地飞翔。
和你的船帆在海上乘风破浪，
你爱着我呀像一只小鸽子一样。
亲爱的小鸽子，请你来到我身旁，
我们飞过蓝色的海洋，
走向遥远的地方。

La Paloma 英文版（Dean Martin）
Lyrics to La Paloma
by Dean Martin
When I left Havana nobody saw me go
But my little gaucho maid who loves me so
She came down the pathway following after me
That same little gaucho maid that I longed to see
If at your window you see a gentle dove
Treat it with care and welcome it there with love
It may be so I do not deny its glee
Crown it with flowers grant love its hours for me
Oh my darling be mine
Won't you say that you love me
All my passions so tender oh please
surrender your love divine
Ah my darling be mine
Won't you say that you love me
Oh my passions so tender oh please
surrender your love divine
Oh my darling be mine
Won't you say that you love me
All my passions so tender oh please
surrender your love divine

下面是摘自麦田音乐网对这首曲子的介绍，挺有趣的。

《鸽子》诞生于十九世纪，至今仍然被当成民歌，在世界各地广为传唱。它是西班牙民间作曲家依拉蒂尔（Sebastien Yradier）谱写于古巴，被古巴、西班牙、墨西哥、阿根廷四个国家所争执，各自皆引以为自己的民歌。古巴有人说：这首歌诞生在我国，运用哈瓦那民间舞曲的节奏为基调写成，当然是我们的民歌了。你听,歌中的第一句明明唱着：“当我离开可爱的故乡哈瓦那……”。由于作者是西班牙人，依拉蒂尔的同胞们把它说成是自己国家的民歌，当然是顺理成章的事。可是墨西哥许多人却不服气，他们说，这首歌写成后，是在我们的皇室为皇帝皇后祝寿时，由我国的歌唱家首演的，是我们使它流行起来的，难道没有我们的功劳？阿根廷有人也不认输，其理由是这首歌的曲调许多地方用了附点音符和切分音，与他们首都郊外的探戈音乐非常相象。既然歌曲的音乐素材来自阿根廷，阿根廷当然就是它的故乡了。这几个国家的人的说法都有一定的理由。其动机也值得肯定，因为大家不是争钱争地，而是争着以拥有美好的歌曲为光荣；有了这“争”，美丽的音乐作品就更容易传播开去。
La Paloma
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"La Paloma" is a popular song, having been produced and reinterpreted in diverse cultures, settings, arrangements, and recordings over the
last 140 years. The song was composed and written by Spanish composer Sebastián Iradier (later Yradier) after he visited Cuba in 1861.
Iradier may have composed "La Paloma" around 1863, just two years before he died in Spain in obscurity, never to learn how popular his song would become.
The influence of the local Cuban habanera gives the song its characteristic and distinctive rhythm. Very quickly "La Paloma" became popular in Mexico, and soon spread around the world. In many places, including Afghanistan, Mexico, Spain, Hawaii, the Philippines, Germany, Romania, Zanzibar, and Goa it gained the status of a quasi-folk song. Over the years the popularity of "La Paloma" has surged and receded periodically, but never subsided. It may be considered one of the first universal popular hits and has appealed to artists of diverse musical backgrounds.
The motifThe motif of "La Paloma" (the dove) can be traced back to an episode that occurred in 492 BC preliminary to Darius' invasion of Greece, a time when the white dove had not yet been seen in Europe.[1] The Persian fleet under Mardonius was caught in a storm off the shore of Mount Athos and being wrecked when the Greeks observed white doves escaping from the sinking Persian ships. This inspired the notion that such birds bring home a final message of love from a sailor who is lost at sea. This theme that a final link of love overcomes death and separation is reflected in "La Paloma". While the lyrics may not always be true to the original, the soul of the song seems to survive all attempts to recast it in whatever new form and shape there may be and is able to express the tension between separation with loneliness, even death, and love.
History"La Paloma" became quickly popular in Mexico. It was a favorite of Emperor Maximilian of Mexico, and at the same time the Mexican
revolutionaries played and popularized it well. Legend has it, popularized by the movie Juarez, that as a last wish Maximilian requested it to be
played at his execution.[citation needed] As Emperor Maximilian was a Habsburg, ships of the Austrian Navy would never play the song.
German and French versions appeared in 1865.[citation needed] In 1899, a performance of the melody by the French Garde Républicaine was one of the first recordings that were made.[citation needed]
New lyrics (not translations) are available in many languages. They typically involve generic images of white doves and true loves. They lack the specificity of the original Spanish, in which a Cuban sailor laments parting from his "Guachinanga chinita" (his adorable Mexican
sweetheart), and asks her to cherish his spirit if it returns to her window as a dove. Then he fantasizes that if he does return safely, they will marry and have seven, or even fifteen, children.
In English, a version titled "No More" with lyrics by Don Robertson and Hal Blair was recorded by both Dean Martin and Elvis Presley.[citation needed]
La Paloma has been interpreted by musicians of diverse backgrounds including opera, pop, jazz, rock, military bands, and folk music.
The song entered the Guinness Book of World Records being sung by the largest choir, 88,600 people, in Hamburg on May 9, 2004.[2]
