youtube/watch?v=CiJhDO8Tb_Y Guantanamera, guajira guantanamera * Guantanamera, guajira, guantanamera I am a truthful man; I come from where the palm tree grows, I am a truehearted man, who comes from where the palm trees grow, Before I lay down my life, I long to coin the verses of my soul Chorus I plant a white rose in January and July, I grow a white rose in January and July, For the open-hearted friend who puts a helping hand in mine Chorus The words that I write are radiant crimson and emerald bright, The poems that I write are radiant crimson and emerald bright, My verses are a wounded deer seeking shelter in the mountain height. Chorus *NOTE: “Guantanamera” i.e. From Guantánamo, Cuba – a woman (or an aire); and “guajira,” i.e. a peasant girl (or perhaps the name of a dance.) Influenced, in part, by the Sandpipers 1966 version. Taken from lyricstranslate/en/gauntanamera-guantanamera.html-0#ixzz3DQachWmj
