¡Viva viernes! (Long live Friday! In other words, TGIF!)
La fecha es el veintitrés (23) de junio del año dos mil veintitrés. (The date is June 23, 2023.)
Various artists have performed Mexican singer Javier Solís’ romantic ballad Recuerdos de Ypacaraí (Memories from Ypacaraí). We have learned about the famous Lake Ypacaraí in Paraguay. Now, we are going to listen to a group of Paraguayan artists perform this classic ballad about love in a treasured place in their motherland.
“Una noche tibia nos conocimos junto al lago azul de Ypacaraí” (One warm night, we met by the blue Lake Ypacaraí).
“Tú cantabas triste por el camino viejas melodías en guaraní” (You were singing old melodies in Guaraní sadly by the road).
“Y con el embrujo de tus canciones iba renasciendo tu amor en mí” (And with the enchantment of your songs, your love was reborn in me).
“Y en la noche hermosa de plenilunio de tu blanca mano sentí el calor” (And in the beautiful night of a full moon, I felt the heat from your white hand).
“Y con tus ojazos me dio el amor” (And with your beautiful big eyes you gave me love).
“¿Dónde estás ahora, cuñataí? (Where are you now, beautiful lady).
¡Cantemos! (Let’s sing!) You can sing along to la letra (the lyrics).
¡Que tengas un viernes vibracional! (May you have a vibrational Friday!)
