			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>Algerian Folk Song in Russian</h2>
<p>I would not say that it was the favourite song of my father, but I have heard it so often, that I remembered it.  Recently I have found my notebook with some lyrics for my favourite songs and boy, was I young at that time.  I would say, fourteen to twenty years old.  Sure enough, there was some record of this song’s lyrics mixed with the words from some other song, but that was how my father sang.  Now I have found this song on <a href="http://www.youtube.com/">www.youtube.com</a>.  I never knew it was Algerian folk song.  Oh, well.  Finding the original seems “mission impossible”.  Anyway, in Russian translation it is called “Come back”.</p>

<h1>Come here, rude boy, boy,</h1>
<h1>can you get it up?</h1>
<p>Strangely enough, after I have watched the video clip for “Alejandro” and laughed and completely discounted it as rubbish, my flow of consciousness was inundated by thoughts about sex, erotica, sexuality and sensuality.  Not that there were no other factors that drove me in this particular direction.</p>
<p>The seeds were planted long ago, so to speak.  And all of a sudden I started paying attention to other clips and words in songs.  In the clip for the song “She bangs”, there is some banging, and lyrics are somewhat provocative (maybe it is not the best description), but it is how I am approaching the subject now.  Even if it is lame, let it be for now.  Then I listened to Rihanna’s “Rude Boy”.  I liked how she talks business:</p>
<h3>Come here, rude boy, boy,</h3>
<h3>Can you get it up?</h3>
<h3>Come here, rude boy, boy</h3>
<h3>Is you big enough?</h3>
<p>Never mind the grammar – “is you big enough?”</p>
<p>Rihanna &#8220;Rude Boy&#8221; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e82VE8UtW8A</p>
<p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e82VE8UtW8A">Rihanna \&#8221;Rude Boy\&#8221;</a></p>
<p>That is how it should be.  “Can you get it up? Or what the hell are we talking about?”  Probably there should be no talking.  Words are nothing, action is everything.  Testing is everything (spoken from experience).  <strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Testing is Everything</span></strong>.  It does not matter how imperfect my marriage was or the sexual aspect of it; at least my husband had no problem with the equipment or performance.  Which I found out only after it had fallen apart.  I don’t regret it, but I feel that in that sense I hit the jackpot the first time; I just did not know it.  Getting it up seems to be more problematic for men than I expected.  Sometimes you need a magnifying glass to find the equipment.  I speak like an engineer, LOL.  Equipment, measurements, length &amp; width, performance…  That is not everything, of course.  There is technique. There is passion; at least there should be passion.  Good luck finding it….  There are plenty of other factors, too.  Otherwise, my marriage could have been much better.  My ex would have not blamed me that I ruined his sex life.  But I think the sentiment goes both ways.  The subject is complicated enough.  But my life was what it was and it is what it is; therefore there is no other choice but to continue my journey of discovery unabated.  Full steam ahead.</p>
<p>The reason I am breaking this barrier (not doing the deed, I did it two years ago), but talking about it in a public space is that the other day, my favourite character told me that “I am such a lamb”.  How I resented the comment!  I am not a lamb!  Maybe there is some truth to it; otherwise I would not be so much irritated.  Well, if there are barriers to be broken, maybe it is about time.</p>
<p>I broke the barrier two years ago.  It was more an act of courage and rebellion, than sex.  And what was the first thing that I encounter?  My second partner could not get it up.  Neither could the third.  And I thought “What the hell?”  I am not going to continue with numbers, performance evaluations &amp; statistics.  It’s all private.  But the question remains “Can you get it up?” Testing, testing 1-2-3.</p>
<p>What is more important to me, can I get past my shyness, inexperience, prejudice, moral barriers?  Can I move on?  Can I get it up?  Can I free myself?  Overcoming fear is intoxicating.  What a stupid question!  Of course, I can!</p>

Lyrics: M. Traiforos, G. Giannakopoulos</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I came across this song, as I usually come across anything.  I stumble upon it.  I loved it.  It took me awhile to discover the lyrics translation and now I love the song even more.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The first clip is my favourite:</p>
<p> </p>
<h3>Fritzilia Martha (Such drama &amp; agony in her performance!)</h3>
<p> </p>
<p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=phnfVQD2z0o&amp;feature=related">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=phnfVQD2z0o&amp;feature=related</a> </p>

<p> </p>
<p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=63_NKnUUneg">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=63_NKnUUneg</a></p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<h3>Lyrics</h3>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Why did you give me this cigarette case?</p>
<p>Since you have thought slyly about me</p>
<p>And basically you want to keep me away</p>
<p>Why did you give me this cigarette case?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>And basically you want to keep me away</p>
<p>Why did you give me this cigarette case?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I should not have taken your cigarette case</p>
<p>Because I see it and fall into deep melancholy</p>
<p>And I even think about quitting smoking</p>
<p>So that I can send you away from my mind for just a second</p>
<p> </p>
<p>And I even think about quitting smoking</p>
<p>So that I can send you away from my mind for just a second</p>
<p> </p>
<p>You never let me see a happy day</p>
<p>And you always liked to torture me</p>
<p>And maybe you gave me this cigarette case</p>
<p>So that smoking would also turn into nightmare for me</p>
<p> </p>
<p>And maybe you gave me this cigarette case</p>
<p>So that smoking would also turn into nightmare for me</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<h3>And now with autotranslator (try to make sense out of it!!!)</h3>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Τι μου τη χάρισες αυτή τη ταμπακέρα<br />
αφού για μένα πονηρά έχεις σκεφτεί<br />
κι αφού στο βάθος θέλεις να με κάνεις πέρα<br />
τι μου τη χάρισες την ταμπακέρα αυτή;</p>
<p>Ποτέ δε μ&#8217; άφησες να δω μιαν άσπρη μέρα<br />
και σου γουστάρει πάντα να με τυραννάς<br />
κι ίσως μου χάρισες αυτή την ταμπακέρα<br />
για να μου γίνει και το κάπνισμα βραχνάς.</p>
<p>Την ταμπακέρα σου δεν έπρεπε να πάρω<br />
γιατί τη βλέπω και βαθιά μελαγχολώ<br />
μέχρι που σκέφτομαι να κόψω το τσιγάρο<br />
για να σε διώξω μια στιγμή απ&#8217; το μυαλό.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>What gave me a cigarette roller</p>
<p>after this evil for me because you think too deep in</p>
<p>You want to do beyond</p>
<p>what gave me the cigarette roller that?</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Never leave me to see an white day</p>
<p>and still likes you tormenting me</p>
<p>and perhaps I gave this to my cigarette case</p>
<p>made and smoking nightmare.</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>The cigarette case you should not get</p>
<p>why I see and deeply sadden to think</p>
<p>that to quit smoking in order</p>
<p>to chase away a moment from your mind</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I like this clip because if you don’t know the words, it rends itself for creating a rather beautiful story about LIGHT.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The lyrics are rather strange, yet… who knows why I like this song?</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K6JcmQgx1fg&amp;feature=related">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K6JcmQgx1fg&amp;feature=related</a> </p>

<p>You are alone, you are without me like the wind</p>
<p>Leave so nobody will take notice</p>
<p>Leave behind my back</p>
<p>I am fine without you</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Maybe one of the reasons that I like this song is that I am in the “parting” mode.  Today is only Day 2.</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Уходи, чтобы никто и не заметил&#8230;</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Уходи так, чтоб никто и не заметил<br />
Уходи за моей спиной<br />
Мне уже хорошо одной</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<h3>Одна&#8230;</h3>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Я одна, я без тебя стою с тобою</p>
<p>Я &#8211; вина, моя вина перед собою</p>
<p>Мне бы сделать один лишь шаг</p>
<p>Чтобы быть все могло не так</p>
<p>И чтобы было с чего начать</p>
<p>Не молчать&#8230;</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Одна на небе сна</p>
<p>Одна ниточка боль</p>
<p>Я в туман собрала</p>
<p>Из разлуки с тобой</p>
<p>Из обиды стена</p>
<p>Одна посреди нас</p>
<p>Я с тобою одна</p>
<p>Одна завтра, сейчас</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Ты один, ты без меня один, как ветер</p>
<p>Уходи так, чтоб никто и не заметил</p>
<p>Уходи за моей спиной</p>
<p>Мне уже хорошо одной</p>
<p>Я как в небе сестра Луна</p>
<p>Одна&#8230;</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Одна на небе сна</p>
<p>Одна ниточка боль</p>
<p>Я в туман собрала</p>
<p>Из разлуки с тобой</p>
<p>Из обиды стена</p>
<p>Одна посреди нас</p>
<p>Я с тобою одна</p>
<p>Одна завтра, сейчас</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Долго друг друга помнили &#8211; не помнили</p>
<p>Мы ничего не поняли, не поняли</p>
<p>Как мы с тобой то верили &#8211; не верили</p>
<p>Так я теперь одна, теперь одна</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Одна на небе сна</p>
<p>Одна ниточка боль</p>
<p>Я в туман собрала</p>
<p>Из разлуки с тобой</p>
<p>Из обиды стена</p>
<p>Одна посреди нас</p>
<p>Я с тобою одна</p>
<p>Одна завтра, сейчас</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Одна&#8230;</p>
<p>Я одна, одна без тебя</p>

<h3>A poem about Winter Landscape.</h3>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Surprisingly enough, I was thinking what I could write about Winter Landscape.  That was my homework for January.  Yes, that one from the calendar.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>And that is what I found.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>A Russian romance <strong>“In the Moonlight the snow is sparkling”</strong>.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Because it is Russian Romance, it is in the Russian language.  Obviously, but that is not the point.  I had to look up the word romance because I was not sure if I used it correctly.  Apparently, I was right and one of the meanings of “romance” is “a short, lyrical composition.”</p>
<p> </p>
<p>But then I looked at the origin of the word and that where I lost my conscience. (A joke!)  The word “romance” stems from the word <em>Roma</em> = <em>Rome.</em>  If I take things literally and I do it quite often, just for fun, then a Russian Romance is a contradiction of terms.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>So, all these meanings: a love story, a literary genre, the aura of excitement and more simply come back to Rome.  Literally, all roads lead to Rome.  Or rather all <strong>ROMANCES</strong> originate in Rome.  Or?  Maybe that is the reason why my Italian friend is so amorous all the time.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Coming back to <strong>“In the moonlight the snow is sparkling”</strong>.  This romance is neither about winter, nor about landscape, it is about Love.</p>
<p> </p>

<h4>Полный текст песни</h4>
<p><strong>слова и музыка Е. Юрьева</strong></p>
<pre> </pre>
<pre>В лунном сиянье снег серебрится,</pre>
<pre>Вдоль по дороге троечка мчится.</pre>
<pre>Динь-динь-динь, динь-динь-динь —</pre>
<pre>Колокольчик звенит,</pre>
<pre>Этот звон, этот звон</pre>
<pre>О любви говорит.</pre>
<pre> </pre>
<pre>В лунном сиянье ранней весною</pre>
<pre>Помнятся встречи, друг мой, с тобою.</pre>
<pre>Динь-динь-динь, динь-динь-динь —</pre>
<pre>Колокольчик звенел,</pre>
<pre>Этот звон, этот звон</pre>
<pre>О любви сладко пел.</pre>
<pre> </pre>
<pre>Помнятся гости шумной толпою,</pre>
<pre>Личико милой с белой фатою.</pre>
<pre>Динь-динь-динь, динь-динь-динь —</pre>
<pre>Звон бокалов шумит,</pre>
<pre>С молодою женой</pre>
<pre>Мой соперник стоит.</pre>
<pre> </pre>
<pre>В лунном сиянье снег серебрится,</pre>
<pre>Вдоль по дороге троечка мчится.</pre>
<pre>Динь-динь-динь, динь-динь-динь —</pre>
<pre>Колокольчик звенит,</pre>
<pre>Этот звон, этот звон</pre>
<pre>О любви говорит.</pre>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3>What was my homework, again?</h3>
<p> </p>
<p>I decided, at least for a while, to follow Goethe’s advice.</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Quote of the month.</strong></p>
<p> </p>
<p>“One ought, every day at least, to hear a little song, read a good poem, see a fine picture, and if it were possible, to speak a few reasonable words.” (Johann Wolfgang von Goethe)</p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Making a list:</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Ö        <strong>A Little Song</strong></p>
<p>Ö        <strong>A Poem</strong></p>
<p>Ö        <strong>A Picture</strong></p>
<p>Ö        <strong>A Few Reasonable Words</strong></p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>I love songs and I will start with Batuka“Dame Fuego”.</p>
<p> </p>
<p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a6kHDBqpVCA">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a6kHDBqpVCA</a></p>
<p> </p>
<p>A little analysis.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>A song with lyrics already contains a poem, because that is what lyrics are.  Lyrics contain a few reasonable words, or so I hope.  This particular song is in Spanish, that I don’t speak, but I have an online translator.  Translations more often than not are lame or sound quite lame.  But I am trying to extract the reason or meaning, or at least remember a few Spanish words.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>A word for today.</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>“Dame fuego, dame el fuego de tu Corazon”</strong></p>
<p><strong>(</strong>Give me fire give me the fire of your heart<strong>)</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>One thing is missing – a Picture.</strong>  Or is it?  The video clip is a picture, so homework is done.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Don’t ask me, if I am nuts.  Because the answer is… I will give you multiple choice</p>
<p> </p>
<ol>
<li>Yes</li>
<li>No</li>
<li>Maybe</li>
<li>Does it matter?</li>
<li>All of the above.</li>
</ol>

Я давно привык садиться ночью к окну,
Я до утра пью взахлеб тишину,
И легкою рукой зажигаю в ночи
Трепетное пламя обнаженной свечи
 
И вновь уношусь лет на десять назад,
Когда я проще был и жил наугад,
Я судил обо всем наивно и на первый взгляд,
 
И делая шаг, я не думал о том,
