Lila Downs

Soy Pescador

Ora voy a comenzar
a ver si puedo o no puedo,
a ver si puedo cantar
o a medio verso me quedo,

Soy pescador vivo en el mar
ando en busca de un amor
que no lo puedo encontrar.

A la mar fui por naranja
cosa que la mar no tiene
el que vive de esperanza
la esperanza lo mantiene.

Dicen que la mar es grande
agua de todos los ríos
donde se van a juntar
tus amores con los mios


I am a Fisherman

Now I will start
to see if I can or I can't
to see if I can sing
or if I can only sing half a verse

I am a fisherman
I live in the sea
I am looking for a loved one
that I cannot forget

I went to the ocean
looking for oranges
something the ocean does not have
the one who lives from hope,
hope is what maintains him

They say the ocean is vast
water from all rivers
where they will find each other
your love and my love

K Romantico!!!

the ocean is vast
water from all rivers
where they will find each other
your love and my love

Great metaphor

Thanks,

Wellllllll. Wendy & I had dinner the other night at Mita's,(LoretoO and had the pleasure of listening to Herzon entertaining the guests for the evening. Herzon's skills at guitar in my estimation are "world class" playing.
If you haven't listened to Herzon play, I would encourage you to eat at Mita's on the plaza and enjoy a wonderful meal. And a gracious host (Juan) Herzon first came to Loreto with his family and father. They have cut CD's together as Dos Generacciones (sp?) We have several of their recordings and have enjoyed them numerous times by ourselves or sharing with our friends at home in Oregon.
Try it, you'll love it!!!!
