the lyrics in English:
āOh, great sun, central sun
Illuminate, Illuminate, Illuminate, Illuminate
Oh, great moon in the sky

Illuminate, Illuminate, Illuminate, Illuminateā

Not an extensive Opera fan, but the two I really love are represented below. If you ever have a chance to see them live, itās worth with the time.
Mozartās incredible āThe Marriage of Figaroā with this song as one highlight.
and āThe Barber of Sevilleā with many songs, whose tunes youāll immediately recognize. This one at the end of Act 1 with itās blend of harmonies and changes of rhythm, is delicious.
The Dream I had Last Night" - Randy Newman
āLast night I had a dream
and you were in it,
and I was in it with you.
And everyone that you know
and everyone that I know
was in my dream.ā
I got your letter today
And I miss you all so much, here
I canāt wait to see you all
And Iām counting the days, dear
I still believe that thereās gold
At the end of the world
And Iāll come home to Illinois
On the day after tomorrow
It is so hard and itās cold here
And Iām tired of taking orders
And I miss old Rockford town
Up by the Wisconsin border
What I miss you wonāt believe
Shoveling snow and raking leaves
And my plane will touch down
On the day after tomorrow
I close my eyes every night
And I dream that I can hold you
They fill us full of lies everyone buys
About what it means to be a soldier
I still donāt know how Iām supposed to feel
About all the blood thatās been spilled
Will God, on His throne, get me back home
On the day after tomorrow?
You canāt deny the other side
Donāt want to die any more than we do
What Iām trying to say is, donāt they pray
To the same God that we do?
Tell me, how does God choose?
Whose prayers does he refuse?
Who turns the wheel? Who throws the dice
On the day after tomorrow?
Iām not fighting for justice
I am not fighting for freedom
I am fighting for my life
And another day in the world here
I just do what Iāve been told
Youāre just the gravel on the road
And only the lucky ones come home
On the day after tomorrow
And the summer, it too will fade
And with it brings the winterās frost, dear
And I know we, too, are made
Of all the things that we have lost here
Iāll be twenty-one today
Iāve been saving all my pay
And my plane will touch down (ooh, ooh)
On the day after tomorrow
And my plane, it will touch down (ooh, ooh)
On the day after tomorrow
yes⦠I still believe this ![]()
thank you for sharing the lyrics hereā¦
