WHILE THE ANGELUS WAS
RINGING
While thc angelus was ringing
calling for the evening pray’r
I could hear tlie choir singing
and I saw you standing there;
Silently I stood beside you
how my heart was beating then!
For my dreams had all come true,
I was saftly back witli you,
Never more to roant again
Then the great Cathedral spire
seemed to come a live and say,
Thro’ tlie voices of tlte choir
„There will be a wedding day“
Then the golden ray of sunlight
From að window in tlie sky
shone upon us frorn above,
< heaven’s blessing on our love,
now ohr love wiil never die.
AMADO MIO
Amado Mio love me forever,
And let forever begin tonight.
Arnado Mio, when we’re together
I’m in a drearn world of sweet dclight.
Many times I’ve wispered,
„Amado Mio“
It was just a phrase
that I’d heard in plays
I was acting a part.
But now when I whisper;
„Amado Mio,“
Can’t you tell I care,
By the feeling there?
For it comes^ from my heart.
My one endeavor rny love, my darling,
Will be to hold you and hold you tight.
Amaro Mio, love me forever,
And let forever begin tonight!
MANSTU KÆRA
(Lag: Mona Lísa)
(Texti: Ignotus)
Manstu, kæra, vorsins heitu ástaróma,
öll þau fyrirheit, sem lífið okkur gaf.
Manstu, vina, næturinnar hulduhljóma
við það huldumál í örmum þér ég svaf.
Manstu okkar heitu þrár
og dagsins drauma,
dreymir þig ei, vina, löngu gengin spor.
Þú ert ljóðið, sem lengst allra man ég,
ljós, sem fann ég, vor, sem ann ég.
Þú ert sólbros í hug mér og hjarta.
Þú ert hjartans drottning
vona minna dís.
LAUGHING ON THE OUTSIDE
The crowcl sees me out dancing,
Carefree and romancing,
Happy widi my someone new,
I’m laughing on the outside,
Crying on the inside
’Cause I’m still in love with you.
They see me night and day time,
Having such a gay time;
They don’t know what I go through!
I’m laughing on the outsidc,
Crying on the inside
,Cause I’m still in love with you.
No one knows it’s just a pose,
Pretending I’m glad we’re apart.
And when I cry my eyes are dry
The tears are in my heart.
My darling, can’t we make up?
Ever since our break up,
Make believe is all I do.
I’nt laughing on the outsjde, -
Crying on the inside,
’Cause I’m still in love with you.
