ORIGINAL TEXT Should auld acquaintance be forgot, and never brought to mind? Should auld acquaintance be forgot, and auld lang syne? CHORUS: For auld lang syne, my jo, for auld lang syne, we’ll tak' a cup o’ kindness yet, for auld lang syne. And surely ye’ll be your pint-stoup! and surely I’ll be mine! And we’ll tak' a cup o’ kindness yet, for auld lang syne. We twa hae run about the braes, and pou’d the gowans fine; But we’ve wander’d mony a weary fit, sin' auld lang syne. We twa hae paidl’d in the burn, frae morning sun till dine; But seas between us braid hae roar’d sin' auld lang syne. An...    less

Born in Munich in 1897, Ben-Haim had a very impressive career as a pianist, conductor and composer. He moved to Tel-Aviv in 1933, and soon became a leading figure in the musical life of Palestine and the State of Israel (from 1948). Ben-Haim regarded his work as part of a wide-spread effort to synthesize Eastern and Western traditions. read more - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Ben-Haim La rosa enflorese en el mez de May, Mi alma s'escurese sufriendo del amor. Los bilbilicos cantan sospiran del amor, Y la pasión me mata muchigua mi dolor. Más presto ven Palomba más presto ven a mí, Más presto tú mi alma que yo me vo morir. The roses bloom in the month of May, But my soul's full of gloom suffering in love. The nightingales sing and are sighing in love, The passion will kill me, multiply my pain. Come faster, oh dove, come faster to me, Come faster, my soul, because I shall die. ...    less

Under en blodig storm -vi deg til strid! Kanskje du spør i angst, udekket, åpen: hva skal jeg kjempe med hva er mitt våpen? Her er ditt vern mot vold,her er ditt sverd: troen på livet vårt,menneskets verd. For all vår fremtids skyld,søk det og dyrk det, dø om du må - men: øk det og styrk det! Stilt går granatenes glidende bånd Stans deres drift mot død stans dem med ånd! Krig er forakt for liv. Fred er å skape. Kast dine krefter inn: døden skal tape Edelt er mennesket, jorden er rik! Finnes her nød og sult skyldes det svik. Knus det! I livets navn skal urett falle. Solskinn og brød og ånd eies av alle. Dette er løftet vårt fra søster til bror: (original:bror til bror) vi vil bli gode mot men'skenes jord. Vi vil ta vare ...    less
