Valsas de Enya

Apesar de já conhecer as músicas desta cantora há uns tempos, só há pouco lhe prestei a devida atenção.

Enya (cujo nome verdadeiro, de origem irlandesa, é Eithne Ní Bhraonáin), sempre procurou inspiração para as suas músicas na sua terra natal, com notada influência principalmente da cultura celta.

Depois de ter ouvido dois dos seus álbuns fiquei rendida à sua música. Principalmente a duas valsas absolutamente arrebatadoras.

Uma dessas Valsas, a “Flora’s Secret” (do álbum “A Day Without Rain”) podemos ouvir frequentemente nos nossos bailes de sexta-feira no Poppulum. Logo no início da noite, o Sr. Teixeira tem o bom gosto de escolher esta música para uma das primeiras valsas.

A outra Valsa que me chamou a atenção foi a “Caribbean Blue” (do álbum “Paint the sky with Stars”).

Ambas são lindas, mas mais que isso…Ambas têm letras inspiradoras e que não resisto a partilhar com vocês.

Espero sinceramente que gostem tanto quanto eu. Boa Semana e Boas Valsas

“Caribbean Blue”

Letra:

“Eurus
Afer Ventus

So the world goes round and round
with all you ever knew
They say the sky high above
Is Caribbean blue ...

If every man says all he can,
If every man is true,
Do I believe the sky above
Is Caribbean blue ...
... Boreas ...
... Zephryus ...

If all you told was turned to gold,
If all you dreamed were new,
Imagine sky high above
In Caribbean blue ...
... Eurus...
Afer Ventus ...
... Boreas
Zephryus ...
... Africus ...”

“Flora’s Secret”

Letra:

“Lovers in the long grass

look above them

only they can see

where the clouds are going

only to discover

dust and sunlight

ever make the sky so blue



Afternoon is hazy

river flowing

all around the sounds

moving closer to them

telling them the story

told by flora

dreams they never knew

Silver willows

tears from Persia

those who come

from a far-off island

winter Chanterelle lies

under cover

Glory-of-the-sun in blue

Some they know as passion

some as freedom

some they know as love

and the way it leaves them

summer snowflake

for a season

when the sky above is blue

when the sky above is blue

Lying in the long grass

close beside her

giving her the name

of the one the moon loves

this will be the day she

will remember

when she knew his heart

was

loving in the long grass

close beside her

whispering of love

and the way it leaves them

lying in the long grass

in the sunlight

they believe it's true love

and from all around them

flora's secret

telling them of love

and the way it breathes

and

looking up from eyes of

amaranthine

they can see the sky

is blue

knowing that their love

is true

dreams they never knew

and the sky above is blue”
