MME's Jam Of The Day

Crashingly beautiful! Concha Buika and musician/producer/singer/songwriter Javier Limón  reach another level on this hypnotic piece entitled Oro Santo which appears on Javier Limon's album Mujeres de Agua. Here is the translation of this song:

Oro Santo (Blessed Gold)

 
In the penumbra of this night dark and holy,
over the tundra that fills my ever waking soul

there sounds a lament,
like a prelude to the dead hours,
hours that pass with the agonising throes of a slow death.

Silence returns to clothe me in gold, my blessing,
the memory of my grandmothers returns
to give me strength and hope,
the records that taught me to love music return,
my father returned after 20 years.

Ah! if you returned,
if you returned I’d clothe you in gold, my blessing.
I’d hush everything
so that you could hear my desperate song.

If you returned I’d clothe you in gold, my blessing.
I’d hush everything
so that you could hear my desperate song.
If you returned I’d clothe you in gold, my blessing.
I’d hush everything
so that you could hear my desperate song.
If you returned I’d clothe you in gold, my blessing.
Let the world stop turning,
so that you can hear my desperate song.

OneLove
