By Rabindranath Tagore
I kno...NOT ALTOGETHER LOST<br />By Rabindranath Tagore <br /><br />I know that this life, missing its ripeness in<br />love, is not altogether lost.<br /><br />I know that the flowers that fade in the dawn,<br />the streams that strayed in the desert, are not<br />altogether lost.<br /><br />I know that whatever lags behind, in this life<br />laden with slowness, is not altogether lost.<br /><br />I know that my dreams that are still<br />unfulfilled, and my melodies still unstruck, are<br />clinging to Your lute strings, and they are not<br />altogether lost.NE Petersonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-601402750320174590.post-3440829836710334242010-04-03T16:39:11.071-04:002010-04-03T16:39:11.071-04:00THAT'S AMORE
In Napoli, where love is king,
...THAT'S AMORE<br /> <br />In Napoli, where love is king,<br />When boy meets girl, here's what they say:<br /><br />When the moon hits your eye like a big pizza pie,<br />That's amore.<br />When the world seems to shine like you've had too much wine,<br />That's amore.<br />Bells will ring ting-a-ling-a-ling, ting-a-ling-a-ling,<br />And you'll sing "Vita bella."<br />Hearts will play tippy-tippy-tay, tippy-tippy-tay,<br />Like a gay tarantella.<br /><br />When the stars make you drool just like pasta fazool,<br />That's amore.<br />When you dance down the street with a cloud at your feet,<br />You're in love.<br />When you walk in a dream but you know you're not<br />Dreaming, signore.<br />Scuzza me, but you see, back in old Napoli,<br />That's amore.<br />Lucky fella.<br /><br />Just thought you'd like to know.<br /><br />JohnJohnnoreply@blogger.com
