Just a joke. A bit of fun in hard times.

Thanks Tom for your outstanding playing. Maybe I will do a real blues version of it some day :-)

Letra  / Translated lyrics (inspired by Aldous Huxley's novel 'Island')

EL PÁJARO MINAH  /  THE MINAH BIRD

Me desperté  /  I woke up
de un sueño equivocado,  /  from a wrong dream,
tumbado entre palmeras,  /  lying among palm trees,
no estoy perdido ni encontrado.  /  I’m neither lost nor found.

Me siento bien,  /  I feel alright,
el sol me ha iluminado,  /  the sun has illuminated me,
la vida se estremece  /  life is shaking
y el egoísmo se ha agotado.  /  and selfishness is exhausted.

Pero cómo no lo pude ver?  /  But how couldn’t I see it?
No tenemos que ir ni que volver.  /  We don’t either have to go or come back.
Hay que sentirlo para creer  /  One must feel it to believe
que vivimos muy cerca del Edén.  /  that we live very near of Eden.

Es esto real?  /  Is this real?
Atrás quedan las ruinas de la ciudad.  /  Behind are left the ruins of the city.
No pierdas tu tiempo,  /  Don’t waste your time,
no sufras más.  /  don’t suffer anymore.

Cuando el ave abra sus alas  /  When the bird opens its wings
y el día se convierta en oscuridad,  /  and the day becomes darkness,
escucha su cantar,  /  listen to its singing,
deja de pensar y vive.  /  stop thinking and live.

Pero cómo no lo pude ver?  /  But how couldn’t I see it?
No tenemos que ir ni que volver.  /  We don’t either have to go or come back.
Hay que sentirlo para creer  /  One must feel it to believe
que vivimos muy cerca del Edén.  /  that we live very near of Eden.

El ritual del Mosha,  /  The ritual of Mosha,
luz del amor al alba,  /  light of love at dawn,
la plenitud del alma,  /  the fullness of the soul,
el privilegio de la vida  /  the privilege of life
como canta el Pájaro Minah  /  as the Minah Bird sings.

Una procesión de focos avanza,  /  A procession of lights goes onward,
rugir de tanques, ruido de armas.  /  tanks roar, noise of guns.
Un grito llama a la venganza  /  A shout claims for revenge
cuando un soldado dispara al Pájaro Minah.  /  when a soldier shoots the Minah Bird.

Tanques y tropas arrasan la ciudad.  /  Tanks and troops raze the city.
La estupidez humana es el arma más letal.  /  Human stupidity is the most lethal weapon.
Cien años de historia  /  A hundred years of history
en una noche ven su final.  /  in one night watch their end.

Cuando el ave cae al suelo  /  When the bird falls to the ground
y su sangre se convierte en hielo,  /  and its blood turns to ice,
y se apaga su cantar…  /  and its singing fades…
Jamás aprenderás si no quieres escuchar.  /  You’ll never learn if you don’t want to listen.

Pero cómo no lo pueden ver?  /  But how can’t they see it?
Hemos sido bendecidos al nacer.  /  We have been blessed at birth.
Hay que sentirlo para creer  /  One must feel it to believe
que la vida es sueño.  /  that life is dream.

Y no quiero despertar   /  And I don’t want to wake up
de este sueño equivocado.  /  from this wrong dream.
Me siento bien…  /  I feel alright …
Me siento bien…  /  I feel alright …

Paco Ray: El Pájaro Minah (ft. David Sinvergüenza & E-Ruizzo)

"Just Like Heaven" is a song by British alternative rock band the Cure. The group wrote most of the song during recording sessions in southern France in 1987. The lyrics were written by their frontman Robert Smith, who drew inspiration from a past trip to the sea shore with his future wife. Smith's memories of the trip formed the basis for the song's accompanying music video. Before Smith had completed the lyrics, an instrumental version of the song was used as the theme for the French television show Les Enfants du Rock.

"Just Like Heaven" was the third single released from their 1987 album Kiss Me, Kiss Me, Kiss Me. The song became the Cure's first American hit and reached number 40 on the Billboard charts in 1988. 

All lyrics written by Robert Smith; all music composed by Robert Smith, Simon Gallup, Porl Thompson, Boris Williams, Lol Tolhurst.
Produced by David M. Allen, Robert Smith.

JUST LIKE HEAVEN

Show me, show me, show me how you do that trick
The one that makes me scream she said
The one that makes me laugh she said
Threw her arms around my neck
Show me how you do it and I’ll promise you
I’ll promise that I’ll run away with you, I’ll run away with you

Spinning on that dizzy edge
Kissed her face and kissed her head
Dreamed of all the different ways, I had to make her glow
Why are you so far away she said
Why won’t you ever know that I’m in love with you?
That I’m in love with you?

You, soft and only, 
you lost and lonely
You, strange as angels
Dancing in the deepest oceans
Twisting in the water
You’re just like a dream
You’re just like a dream

Daylight licked me into shape
I must have been asleep for days
And moving lips to breathe her name
I opened up my eyes
And found myself alone, alone, alone above a raging sea
That stole the only girl I loved and drowned her deep inside of me

You soft and only
You lost and lonely
You just like heaven

"A Forest" is a song by the English rock band the Cure. Co-produced by Mike Hedges and the band's Robert Smith, it was released as a single from the band's second album Seventeen Seconds on 8 April 1980. It was their debut entry on the UK Singles Chart, reaching number 31. The accompanying music video was first shown on BBC's Top of the Pops programme on 24 April 1980.

Recorded and mixed over seven days, along with the rest of the songs from the album, "A Forest" is representative of the Cure's early-1980s gothic rock phase. The song has featured on the band's setlists for many years. Several versions have appeared on concert albums, and it was remixed and released as a single from Mixed Up in 1990.
Since its release, "A Forest" has become the most played Cure song, with over 1,000 live appearances.


All lyrics written by Robert Smith; all music composed by Robert Smith, Simon Gallup, Matthieu Hartley, Lol Tolhurst.

A FOREST

Come closer and see
See into the trees
Find the girl
If you can
Come closer and see
See into the dark
Just follow your eyes
Just follow your eyes

I hear her voice
Calling my name
The sound is deep
In the dark
I hear her voice
And start to run
Into the trees
Into the trees

Into the trees

Suddenly I stop
But I know it's too late
I'm lost in a forest
All alone
The girl was never there
It's always the same
I'm running towards nothing
Again and again and again and again

She said "could you take me home tonight?
It's the only way I know."
She said "could you take me home tonight?
There's no other way I know."

She said "you know the way you used to do."
"of course I'll take you home."
"you know the way you used to do."
"of course I'll take you home."

This kiss could cost my life.
Is all you see in her eyes.
This kiss could cost my life.
Is all you see in her eyes.

It's all you see in her eyes.

She said "take my hand, take me home."
She said "take my hand, take me home.
Take me home.
Take me home.
