Puedo Escribir (Letras de Pablo Neruda)

Puedo escribir los versos más tristes esta noche.

Escribir por ejemplo: “La noche está estrellada, 
y tiritan, azules, los astros, a lo lejos.”

Puedo escribir los versos más tristes esta noche.
Yo la quise, y a veces ella también me quiso.

Oir la noche inmensa, más inmensa sin ella.
Y el verso cae al alma como al pasto el rocío.

Eso es todo. A lo lejos alguien canta. A lo lejos.
Mi alma no se contenta con haberla perdido.

Tonight I Can Write (Lyrics by Pablo Neruda)

Tonight I can write the saddest lines.

Write, for example, “The night is starry 
and the stars are blue and shiver in the distance.”

Tonight I can write the saddest lines.
I loved her, and sometimes she loved me too.

To hear the immense night, still more immense without her.
And the verse falls to the soul like dew to the pasture.

This is all. In the distance, someone is singing. In the distance.
My soul is not satisfied that it has lost her.

Puedo Escribir

Oh WOW! Over 2000 plays of this very personal track. To think I was hesitant to even post it... Thank you so much! ❤️

In our lives, we are granted the opportunity to witness the departure of our loved ones. Some depart through doors, never to return, yet still exist somewhere. Others leave suddenly, unexpectedly. Yet some depart when we are somewhat prepared, for their age predisposes them to it. However, there are also departures more challenging... when we observe the tree of the mind of a beloved, from which memories' leaves fall, and even the freshest, youngest cannot hold on to it. We cannot help, we can only watch how they fall...

Composing this little piece was very personal. It was combined with the realization of a fact from my immediate surroundings. I left all imperfections of my playing because of how I felt at that moment. It wasn't an improvisation, it was an interpretation of a theme that I've developed few minutes earlier.

I am very glad to present you my new track "For more humanity". Please feel free to leave a comment what you think about or just listen to it. :-)

For more humanity

Winter Glow (Original Instrumental)

We welcome Paulette Verlée, Brussels-based composer and pianist, as the newest voice in our Woman Muse series.

Her debut piece with ad21 is a beautifully melancholic piano work that unfolds with calm elegance and emotional depth.
Delicate and cinematic, it creates a soothing atmosphere where sound becomes memory, and silence holds meaning.

Known for her poetic and immersive compositions, Paulette blurs the lines between neoclassical, ambient, and visual storytelling, crafting music that feels like a soundtrack for something unseen but deeply felt.

Verse 1
Your Life – it’s a beautiful thing
One Life – it’s yours to win

Chorus 1
Dark clouds bring a brand new day
Dark clouds wash it all away

Verse 2
Sometimes life, it takes you away
To another time, another place

Chorus 2
Dark clouds bring a brand new day
Dark clouds wash it all away

Bridge
When your heart longs for another day
It’s gonna be alright
It’s gonna be alright

Outro
Dark clouds bring a brand new day
Dark clouds wash it all away
Wash it all away…

The darkest clouds

Je suis le vieux forçat de cette forteresse
Aux invisibles murs, mais remplis de murmures
Tournant en procession au fond de cette pièce
Où mon âme n’a plus que des lambeaux d’armures.

Et tel un condamné, j’entends leur psalmodie
Gémir à demi-mots leur sourde messe-basse
Tombant à gros flocons dans l’hiver infini,
Ressusciter sans cesse un passé qui se glace.

Aux âmes condamnées, l’enfer est ici-bas.
Les regrets éternels sont, plus que tout, vivants
Quand ils rongent l’espoir dont l’unique combat
Est de cautériser les jambes du présent.

Mais quand revient le soir, loin des bruits de la ville,
Que la folle vitrine amusant le passant
Remet le fond de tain d’un miroir indocile,
J’y revois, impuissant, le passé lancinant.

Puis dans ce grand mouchoir qui se prend pour mon lit,
J’allonge ma défaite, inutile d’aisance,
Comme si en dormant, les conseils de la nuit
Allaient soudain venir dans ce port de plaisance.

Aux âmes condamnées, l’enfer est ici-bas.
Les regrets éternels sont, plus que tout, vivants
Quand ils rongent l’espoir dont l’unique combat
Est de cautériser les jambes du présent.

L’amour a tout l’esprit et tout le corps divin.
Et si j’en perds le nord, c’est que par tous mes sens
Il m’y anéantit, pour un oui, pour un lien
Qui n’aura d’heureux que le poids de l’inconscience.

Aux âmes condamnées, l’enfer est ici-bas.
Les regrets éternels sont, plus que tout, vivants
Quand ils rongent l’espoir dont l’unique combat
Est de cautériser les jambes du présent.

Aproximate translation :

I am the old convict of this fortress
With invisible walls, but full of murmurs
Turning in procession at the bottom of this room
Where all my soul has left are tatters of armor.

And like a condemned man, I hear their psalmody
Moaning half-words their deaf low mass
Falling to large flakes in the infinite winter,
Constantly resurrecting a frozen past.

To the doomed souls, hell is down here.
Eternal regrets are, more than anything, alive
When they eat away hope whose only fight
Is to cauterize the legs of the present.

But when we come back in the evening, far from the sounds of the city,
Let the crazy window amuse the passerby
Put back the bottom of one of those indocile mirrors,
I can’t help but remember the haunting past.

Then in this big handkerchief that thinks it’s my bed,
I lengthen my defeat, useless of ease,
As if in sleep, the tips of the night
Suddenly would come to this marina.

To the doomed souls, hell is down here.
Eternal regrets are, more than anything, alive
When they eat away hope whose only fight
Is to cauterize the legs of the present.

Love has all the spirit and all the divine body.
And if I lose the north, it’s because of all my senses
He destroys me, for a yes, for a link
Who will be happy only by the weight of unconsciousness.

To the doomed souls, hell is down here.
Eternal regrets are, more than anything, alive
When they eat away hope whose only fight
Is to cauterize the legs of the present.

MIDNIGHT HOUR

LES GENS S’ENGUEULENT ON SAIT PAS POURQUOI MAIS
LES GENS S’ENGUEULENT
LES GENS S’ENGUEULENT ILS SAVENT PAS POURQUOI MAIS
LES GENS S’ENGUEULENT

DES NOMS D’OISEAUX DES MOTS DE TROP ET DES GROS MOTS
POUR TROIS FOIS RIEN DU MOMENT QUE ÇA FAIT DU BIEN 
DE FAIRE DU MAL UN ANIMAL 
DEUX ANIMAUX

AVEC MA POULE C’EST UNE AFFAIRE QUI ROULE MAIS
DÈS QU’ON S’ENGUEULE
Y’ A TOUT QUI S’ÉCROULE EN SUCETTE EN SEMOULE OUAIS
TEL UN CRUMBLE

QU’EST-CE QUE T’AS DIT RÉPÈTE UN PEU J’VAIS TOUT CASSER
TU M’FAIS PAS PEUR D’ABORD C’EST TOI QU’A COMMENCÉ
ON A L’AIR FIN AH OUAIS ON A L’AIR BEAU À VOIR
DÉFIGURÉS LA BOUCHE ROUGE ET LES YEUX NOIRS OH

LES GENS S’ENGUEULENT ET QUAND ILS EN ONT ASSEZ
DE S’ENGUEULER
CHACUN SINGLE VA SE FAIRE VOIR DE SON CÔTÉ
POUR FAIRE LA GUEULE

DES LIONS DES MOUSTIQUES DES LYCAONS DES TIQUES
DES CHIENS QUI ABOIENT ET DES CHATTES HYSTÉRIQUES
VIOLENCES DOMESTIQUES QUI S’Y FROTTE S’Y PIQUE
DANSER LE TWIST ET LA SAMBA SUR UN FIL ÉLECTRIQUE

LES GENS S’ENGUEULENT

LES GENS S'ENGUEULENT - cats & dogs (Lyrics)

A Secret Door

War broke our lives to BEFORE and AFTER its start... Russian aggression has no boundaries, it's Universal. Our house happened to be on the war front line so our family had to leave behind our home and escape just to save our lives. We had spent 8 days in hell being under Russian missiles and bombs...
 In my "previous" life I used to create music and still have got some unreleased works.
 All the tracks are played, recorded and mixed on Yamaha Clavinova CVP505 without using any software.
Now I have no piano, no more chance to record music. The only sense of life is to survive. If you're Russian please don't follow me. We have nothing in common anymore. We'll never forgive you this disgusting bloody war against Ukrainian children. Each of you is GUILTY.
