Nana Mouskouri: Cucurucucu paloma (version in english)

From the album: 'Over and over /The exquisite' - 1969
Softly the night wind singing
Tells me it's bringing my love to me
With every breath it's sending
Love never ending across the sea
My heart and I are trying
To keep from crying
But we are lonely
Fly little bird go winging
And please lead him home safely to me
Cucurrucucu Paloma
Cucurrucucu Paloma
Bring him back to me forever
Let us always be together
What good is my tomorrow
When filled with sorrow just like today
I need him here to hold me
Here to enfold me, always to stay
So little bird please find him
And then remind him I am so lonely
Fly little bird, go winging
And please lead him home safely to me
Cucurrucucu Paloma
Cucurrucucu Paloma
Bring him back to me forever
Let us always be together
Cucurrucucu
Cucurrucucu
Cucurrucucu
Let us always be together

This is one of the rare time when you hear voice, poetry meanings, musical instruments in perfect synchronization

My dad used to play this on the guitar, singing it with my mum at new year. That how i remember it. Crazy that all these years later, this damn song comes into my head. I would give anything to hear them sing it together one more time.
