Posso parlare italiano?


translated, the title means, can I speak Italian? and yes, to those who have watched The Godfather, you would know that there are quite a number of dialogs that are done in Italian (and to those who haven't, u better go watch it, if you know what is good for u)..but yea, i've downloaded a version of the movie that doesn't come with subtitles, so yes, i decided to watch the movie anyway..i have taken italian as an elective in HELP a couple of years ago, i think, and listening to the dialog in italian, im catching some words here n there and it kinda helps me with the story..hehe..

also, i just watched and read the lyrics of this song, which is a Latin song called Historia di Un Amor (if im not mistaken the word 'di' is spelt 'de' in Latin, am i right? I am just spelling it according to Italian rules), which translated means Story of a Love, and yea, reading d Latin lyrics also sparked some words that cross over from italian..so yes, my point is that its pretty cool, n also the song is SUPERBLY HIGHLY emo..here is the lyrics in latin (for Smith to practice his Spanish..:p) and also in English..but yea, d song, whoa! and ppl say im quite emo, im nothing compared to this man! By the way, i did come across this video and lyrics from a friend's blog, but I dont think that he/she would want me to reveal their blog address..so the only reason im telling u guys this is so that i dont get d credit of finding the song..he/she did..




Ya no estás más a mi lado, corazón.
En el alma sólo tengo soledad.
Y si ya no puedo verte,
¿Por qué Dios me hizo quererte?
¿Para hacerme sufrir más?
Siempre fuiste la razón de mi existir.
Adorarte para mi fue religión.
Y en tus besos yo encontraba
El calor que me brindaba
El amor y la pasión.
Es la historia de un amor,
Como no hay otro igual.
Que me hizo comprender
Todo el bien, todo el mal.
Que le dio luz a mi vida,
Apagándola después.
¡Ay que vida tan oscura!,
¡Sin tu amor no viviré!
Es la historia de un amor.

You're no longer by my side, my love
And in my soul I have only loneliness
If I can no longer see you
Why did God make me love you?
To make me suffer more?
You were the reason for my existence.
Adoring you, for me, was religion.
In your kisses I've found
The warmth that gave me
The love and the passion.
That's the story of a love.
Which has no equal
That made me understand
All the good, all the bad
That gave light to my life
Then turned it off.
Oh what a dark life!
Without your love I will not live!
That's the story of a love.
Cheers and God Bless
