Ave Maria No Moro

Ave maria no morro
(written by herivelto martins and m. salinas)
(arranged and performed by scorpions)
Hay un ro, un monte de chocitas chiquititas
Es el morro de los negros, la mansin
Es tan humilde, tan desgraciada y tan sencilla
Ni siquiera una capilla da cobijo para rezar
Pero si vive cerca del cielo y cayera
Y la noche con su manto cubre las chozas que van a amar
All se escucha, al fin del da una plegaria, ave mara
All se escucha, al fin del da una plegaria
Ave mara, ave mara
Aunque no tenga capilla, reza la gente sencilla
Ave mara
All se escucha, al fin del da una plegaria, ave mara
All se escucha, al fin del da una plegaria
Ave mara, ave mara
Aunque no tenga capilla, reza la gente sencilla
Ave mara

Mara

A dry leaf scrapes across dry clay
giving Mara's game away.

The clock cuts into hours each day
to keep Eternity at bay.

Eternity outwaits the clock
and Mara's game is back on track.

The master-key clicks shut the lock
which stops the clock from turning back.

Leaf and clay must
meet in dust.

(And Mara's game is back on track.)

Mara

I am your own flesh and blood and,
Like one of the seventy sons of Yerubaal;
But your kinfolk came in and sacked me,
So go and tell this young woman that i love her.

It is like the memories of you and i,
And like anarmed man of war!
But i see no guns around you my love.

Oh, how the wind came and whispered your name to me;
For you are called Mara in the land of love and,
All the roses of love do kiss you.

Hip and thigh,
I am now seeking for your protection;
For we are both not yet married and,
The summer blues is all around us.

He was unmarried and i am not,
But the violence and the ruthless people do sing;

Sabudinaku

Tu kana pindhibure kurta
tate chuinle mara.

kie achhare kouthi
ea gote chora
badaa mara.

ujadi dia podi pakaa
gharabadi jinisapatra
yankara gotia kana
khaiba banchiba rahiba aadhikara.

kou sarkara aasi
kemiti rakhiba rakhu
meteidiaa yaku sabudinaku.

On Love in an Hour

On Love in an Hour

He came, she called and conquered in a flash, -
a game which some attract, to some seems rash,
... but BOOM within a sixty minute span
is sc[r]am, emotions trampled into trash.

With glasses and with waiter tipped two go
to no-tell drive, live wires with youthful glow,
...sharp nails leave trails from knee to thigh but find
need cannot feed flow’s greed from top to toe.

So no hotel, no temporary abode,
serenity provides when oats are sowed,
...once strapped with liqueur lapped the sap’s renewed
with Jack and Jill in interactive mode.

No wrongs ? No rights ? may easy be to write,
With one last gift, precipitation’s flight, -

Oloololo

Written by dewey bunnell and gerry beckley, 1998
Found on human nature.
Lala salama
To the masai mara
And asante sana
To kichwa tembo
Im going oloololo
Back to the world where Im from
Soon Ill be flying solo
On a heading that follows the sun
Oloololo, oloololo, loololo
cause Ive been down from nairobi
Southeast of kisumu
To the waiting savanna
Like a place that I once knew
And the river was flowing
While the crocodile baked in the sun
With the elephant knowing
That a change had already begun
Oloololo, oloololo, loololo
