Pater Noster
Pater noster, qui es in caelis, sanctificetur Nomen tuum. Adveniat regnum tuum. Fiat voluntas tua, sicut in caelo et in terra. Panem nostrum quotidianum da nobis hodie, et dimitte nobis debita nostra sicut et nos dimittimus debitoribus nostris.Amen

Ruggero Leoncavallo-Aria di Nedda- sings Marie Josee
Qual fiamma avea nel guardo!, Nedda's aria from I Pagliacci
Qual fiamma avea nel guardo!
Gli occhi abbassai per tema
Ch'ei leggesse il mio pensier segreto!
Oh! s'ei mi sorprendesse...
Brutale come egli e!
Ma basti, orvia.
Son questi sogni paurosi e fole!
O che bel sole di mezz'agosto!
Io son piena di vita,
E, tutta illanguidita per arcano desio,
Non so che bramo!
Stridono lassù,
liberamente lanciati a vol,
a vol come frecce, gli augel.
Disfidano le nubi e sol cocente,
e vanno, e vanno per le vie del ciel.
Lasciateli vagar per l'atmosfera
questi assetati d'azzurro e di splendor;
seguono anch'essai un sogno, una chimera,
e vanno, e vanno fra le nubi d'or.
Che incalzi il vento e latri la tempesta,
con l'ali aperte san tutto sfidar;
la pioggia, I lampi, nulla mai li arresta,
e vanno, e vanno, sugli abissi e il mar.
Vanno laggiù verso un paese strano
che sognan forse e che cercano invan.
Ma I boëmi del ciel seguon l'arcano
poter che li sospinge...e van...
E van! e van! e van!

Rimsky - Korsakov -- Jussi Björling - Song of the Indian guest from the opera Sadko
I söderns hav, i klippans dolda gömma
där vilar pärlan trolskt du såg i drömmen,
på Indiens strand
i undrens land.
Djupt i böljors vimmel
speglars röd dess himmel
över hav som tiger,
fågel Fenix stiger
höra sånger tona,
längta att försona
på de vita vingar,
högt mot rymden tvingar
lyss till ljuva sången,
snart är dagen gången.
I söderns hav, i klippans dolda gömma
där vilar pärlan trolskt du såg i drömmen
på Indiens strand
i undrens land

Have a Merry happy christmas and a wonderfully beautiful new year-Wagner-Pilgrims' chorus Tannhauser act 3
Today he was born.
Today, Do we follow him?
Today, Do we help others?
Today, Do we forgive to be forgiven?
Today, Do we live in charity?
Today, Do we do good to our brothers on earth?
Today, Do we visit the sick in the hospitals?
Today, Do we clothe the ones who are naked?
Today ,Do we console those who are in distress?
Today, Do we assist those who are suffering?
Today, Do we give water and food to those who are hungry and thirsty?
Today , Can we say we are real followers of our Lord Jesus Christ?
My conscience is not clean.
Is yours?

NAVIDAD NUESTRA-MUSIC BY ARIEL RAMIREZ
A la huella, a la huella
{José y María}
Por las pampas heladas
{Cardos y ortigas.}
A la huella, a la huella
Cortando campo
No hay cobijo ni fonda
Sigan andando.
Florecita del campo,
{Clavel del aire}
Si ninguno te aloja
{¿adónde naces?}
¿Dónde naces, florcita
Que estás creciendo,
Palomita asustada,
Grillo sin sueño?
{A la huella, a la huella}
José y María
Con un dios escondido
Nadie sabia ...
A la huella, a la huella
{Los peregrinos}
Préstenme una tapera
{Para mi niño.}
A la huella, a la huella
Soles y lunas
Los ojitos de almendra
Piel de aceituna.
¡Ay burrito del campo!
{¡ay buey barcino!}
¡que mi niño ya viene,
{Háganle sitio!}
Un ranchito de quincha
Solo me ampara
Dos alientos amigos
La luna clara
A la huella, a la huella
José y María
Con un dios escondido
Nadie sabia ...
{A la huella, a la huella}
José y María.

Giacomo Puccini-Vissi D'arte- second act of Tosca.sung by Maria Callas
Vissi d’arte, vissi d’amore, non feci mai male ad anima viva!
Con man furtiva
quante miserie conobbi aiutai.
Sempre con fè sincera
la mia preghiera
ai santi tabernacoli salì.
Sempre con fè sincera
diedi fiori agl’altar.
Nell’ora del dolore
perchè, perchè, Signore,
perchè me ne rimuneri così?
Diedi gioielli della Madonna al manto, e diedi il canto agli astri, al ciel,
che ne ridean più belli.
Nell’ora del dolor
perchè, perchè, Signor,
ah, perchè me ne rimuneri così?
Giacomo Puccini-Chi il bel sogno di doretta-Kiri Te Kanawa
Chi il bel sogno di Doretta
Potè indovinar?
Il suo mister come mai
Come mai fini
Ahimè! un giorno uno studente
In bocca la baciò
E fu quel bacio
Rivelazione:
Fu la passione!
Folle amore!
Folle ebbrezza!
Chi la sottil carezza
D'un bacio cosi ardente
Mai ridir potrà?
Ah! mio sogno!
Ah! mia vita!
Che importa la ricchezza
Se alfine è rifiorita
La felicità!
O sogno d'or
Poter amar così!

Frederich Von Flotow. Luciano Pavarotti sings M'appari tutt'amor
M'appari tutt''amor, il mio sguardo l'incontro:
bella si che il mio cor, ansioso a lei volo:
mi feri, m'invaghi quell'angelica belta,
sculta in cor dall'amor cancellarsi non potra:
il pensier di poter palpitar con lei d'amor,
puo sopir il martir che m'affana e stranzia il cor e stranzia il cor
M'appari tutt'amor, il mio sguardo l'incontro;
bella si che il mio cor ansioso a lei volo;
Marta, Marta, tu sparisti e il mio cor col tuo n'ando!
Tu la pace mi rapisti, di dolor io moriro.
di dolor morro, ah, morro!
Frederich Von Flotow From Martha-"Ach, so fromm, ach so traut"-M'appari tutt'amor
Ach! so fromm, ach so traut,
Hat mein Auge sie erschaut;
Ach! so mild, und so rein
Drang ihr Bild in's Herz mir ein.
Banger Gram, eh' sie kam,
Hat die Zukunft mir umhüllt,
Doch mit ihr blühte mir
Neues Dasein lusterfüllt.
Weh! Es schwand, was ich fand, ach!
Mein Glück erschaut ich kaum,
Bin erwacht und die Nacht
Raubte mir den süssen traum.
Martha! Martha!
Du entschwandest, und mein Glück
Nahmst Du mit Dir;
Gib mir wieder, was Du fandest,
Oder teile es mit mir.
Oh so sweet! Oh so true!
This is how my eyes saw you;
Oh so kind and so pure!
Of this my heart was very sure.
Before you came was only sorrow.
Worried gloom was my tomorrow.
Then with you life blossomed new,
Only joy with you I knew.
Alas! Alas! you did not stay,
My happiness it went away.
Sleepless nights do I endure,
My sweetest dream has gone for sure.
Martha! Martha!
You went from me
And took my happiness with thee;
Bring back to me what once you brought,
Or send me just some word or thought. (

Catalani- "Ebben ne andró lontana"- La wally.Sings Maria Callas
Ebben? Ne andrò lontana,
Come va l'eco della pia campana,
Là, fra la neve bianca;
Là, fra le nubi d'ôr;
Laddóve la speranza, la speranza
È rimpianto, è rimpianto, è dolor!
O della madre mia casa gioconda,
La Wally ne andrà da te, da te
Lontana assai, e forse a te,
E forse a te, non farà mai più ritorno,
Nè più la rivedrai!
Mai più, mai più!
Ne andrò sola e lontana,
Come l'eco è della pia campana,
Là, fra la neve bianca;
Ne andrò, ne andrò sola e lontana!
E fra le nubi d'ôr!
Well, then? I will go far away,
As far as the echo of the church bell,
There, through the white snow,
There, through the golden clouds,
There, where hope, hope
Is regret, is regret and pain!
Oh, from my mother's happy house,
Wally will go away from you, from you.
Far enough away, and maybe,
And maybe, she will never return to you.
You'll never see her again.
Never again, never again.
I will go alone and far,
As far as the echo of the church bell,
There, through the white snow;
I will go, I will go alone and far,
Among the golden clouds.

Gounod-"Salut demeure chaste et pure"-from le faust- sung by Giuseppi di Stefano
Salut, demeure chaste et pure
Salut, demeure chaste et pure
Où se devine la présence
D'une âme innocente et divine
Que de richesse en cette pauvreté
En ce réduit, que de félicité
Que de richesse
Que de richesse en cette pauvreté
En ce réduit, que de félicité
O Nature,
C'est là que tu la fis si belle
C'est là que cette enfant
A dormi sous ton aile,
A grandi sous tes yeux.
Là que de ton haleine
Enveloppant son âme
Tu fis avec amour
Epanouir la femme
En cet ange des cieux
C'est là ! Oui ! C'est là !
Salut, demeure chaste et pure
Salut, demeure chaste et pure
Où se devine la présence
D'une âme innocente et divine
Salut !
Salut, demeure chaste et pure
Où se devine la présence
D'une âme innocente et divine

Ode to joy lyrics in English
Joy, beautiful spark of Gods,
2 Daughter of Elysium,
3 We enter, fire-imbibed,
4 Heavenly, thy sanctuary.
5 Thy magic powers re-unite
6 What custom's sword has divided
7 Beggars become Princes' brothers
8 Where thy gentle wing abides.
Chorus
---------------------------------------
9 Be embraced, millions!
10 This kiss to the entire world!
11 Brothers - above the starry canopy
12 A loving father must dwell.
13 Whoever has had the great fortune,
14 To be a friend's friend,
15 Whoever has won the love of a devoted wife,
16 Add his to our jubilation!
17 Indeed, whoever can call even one soul
18 His own on this earth!
19 And whoever was never able to must creep
20 Tearfully away from this circle.
Chorus
-------------------------------------------
21 Those who dwell in the great circle,
22 Pay homage to sympathy!
23 It leads to the stars,
24 Where the Unknown reigns.
25 Joy all creatures drink
26 At nature's bosoms;
27 All, Just and Unjust,
28 Follow her rose-petalled path.
29 Kisses she gave us, and Wine,
30 A friend, proven in death,
31 Pleasure was given (even) to the worm,
32 And the Cherub stands before God.
Chorus
-----------------------------------------
33 You bough down, millions?
34 Can you sense the Creator, world?
35 Seek him above the starry canopy.
36 Above the stars He must dwell.
37 Joy is called the strong motivation
38 In eternal nature.
39 Joy, joy moves the wheels
40 In the universal time machine.
41 Flowers it calls forth from their buds,
42 Suns from the Firmament,
43 Spheres it moves far out in Space,
44 Where our telescopes cannot reach.
Chorus
------------------------------------------
45 Joyful, as His suns are flying,
46 Across the Firmament's splendid design,
47 Run, brothers, run your race,
48 Joyful, as a hero going to conquest.
49 As truth's fiery reflection
50 It smiles at the scientist.
51 To virtue's steep hill
52 It leads the sufferer on.
53 Atop faith's lofty summit
54 One sees its flags in the wind,
55 Through the cracks of burst-open coffins,
56 One sees it stand in the angels' chorus.
Chorus
--------------------------------------------
57 Endure courageously, millions!
58 Endure for the better world!
59 Above the starry canopy
60 A great God will reward you.
61 Gods one cannot ever repay,
62 It is beautiful, though, to be like them.
63 Sorrow and Poverty, come forth
64 And rejoice with the Joyful ones.
65 Anger and revenge be forgotten,
66 Our deadly enemy be forgiven,
67 Not one tear shall he shed anymore,
68 No feeling of remorse shall pain him.
Chorus
----------------------------------------
69 The account of our misdeeds be destroyed!
70 Reconciled the entire world!
71 Brothers, above the starry canopy
72 God judges as we judged.
73 Joy is bubbling in the glasses,
74 Through the grapes' golden blood
75 Cannibals drink gentleness,
76 And despair drinks courage--
77 Brothers, fly from your seats,
78 When the full rummer is going around,
79 Let the foam gush up to heaven*:
80 This glass to the good spirit.
Chorus
----------------------------------------
81 He whom star clusters adore,
82 He whom the Seraphs' hymn praises,
83 This glass to him, the good spirit,
84 Above the starry canopy!
85 Resolve and courage for great suffering,
86 Help there, where innocence weeps,
87 Eternally may last all sworn Oaths,
88 Truth towards friend and enemy,
89 Men's pride before Kings' thrones--
90 Brothers, even it if meant our Life and blood,
91 Give the crowns to those who earn them,
92 Defeat to the pack of liars!
Chorus
------------------------------------------
93 Close the holy circle tighter,
94 Swear by this golden wine:
95 To remain true to the Oath,
96 Swear it by the Judge above the stars!
97 Delivery from tyrants' chains,
98 Generosity also towards the villain,
99 Hope on the deathbeds,
100 Mercy from the final judge!
101 Also the dead shall live!
102 Brothers, drink and chime in,
103 All sinners shall be forgiven,
104 And hell shall be no more.
Chorus
-----------------------------------
105 A serene hour of farewell!
106 Sweet rest in the shroud!
107 Brothers--a mild sentence
108 From the mouth of the final judge!
2 Daughter of Elysium,
3 We enter, fire-imbibed,
4 Heavenly, thy sanctuary.
5 Thy magic powers re-unite
6 What custom's sword has divided
7 Beggars become Princes' brothers
8 Where thy gentle wing abides.

Beethoven - Ode An Die Freude / Ode to Joy #1
O Freunde, nicht diese Töne,
sondern lasst uns angenehmere
anstimmen, und freundenvollere
Freude, schöner Götterfunken,
Tochter aus Elysium,
wir betreten feuertrunken,
Himmlische, dein Heiligtum!
Deine Zauber binden wieder,
was die Mode streng geteilt:
alle Menschen werden Brüder,
wo dein snafter Flügel weilt.
Wem der grosse Wurf gelungen,
eines Freundes Freund zu sein,
wer ein holdes Weib errungen,
mische seinen Jubel ein!
Ja, wer auch nur eine Seele
sein nennt auf dem Erdenrund!
Und wer's nie gekonnt, der stehle
weinend sich aus diesem Bund!
Freude trinken alle Wesen
an den Brüsten der Natur,
alle Guten, alle Bösen
folgen ihrer Rosenspur.
Küsse gab sie uns und Reben,
einen Freund, geprüft im Tod;
Wollust ward dem Wurm gegeben,
und der Cherub steht vor Gott.
TENOR ALLEINFLUG UND KEHRREIM
Froh, wie seine Sonnen fliegen
durch des Himmels prächt'gen Plan,
laufet, Brüder, eure Bahn,
freudig, wie ein Held zum Siegen!
KEHRREIM
Freude, schöner Götterfunken,
Tochter aus Elysium,
wir betreten feuertrunken,
Himmlische, dein Heiligtum!
Deine Zauber binden wieder,
was die Mode streng geteilt:
alle Menschen werden Brüder,
wo dein snafter Flügel weilt.
Seid umschlungen, Millionen!
Diesen Kuss der ganzen Welt!
Brüder, überm Sternenzelt
muss ein lieber Vater wohnen.
Ahnest du den Schöpfer, Welt?
Such ihn überm Sternenzelt!
Über Sternen muss er wohnen.
Freude, schöner Götterfunken,
Tochter aus Elysium,
wir betreten feuertrunken,
Himmlische, dein Heiligtum!
Seid umschlungen, Millionen!
Diesen Kuss der ganzen Welt!
Ihr stürzt nieder, Millionen?
Ahnest du den Schöpfer, Welt?
Such ihn überm Sternenzelt!
Brüder, überm Sternenzelt
muss ein lieber Vater wohnen!
Freude, Tochter aus Elysium,
deine Zauber binden wieder,
was die Mode streng geteilt!
Alle Menschen werden Brüder,
wo dein sanfter Flügel Weilt.
Seid umschlungen, Millionen!
Diesen Kuss der ganzen Welt!
Brüder, überm Sternenzelt
muss ein lieber Vater wohnen.
Freude, schöner Götterfunken,
Tochter aus Elysium,
Freude, schöner Götterfunken!
