Quotes From Behind Rebel Lines

Nights in Hungary - To my dear old.

NIGHTS OF HUNGARY

RICARDO RODRIGUEZ

In one of the world's most beautiful cities, Budapest, the melody of a song on the nostalgia surrounding me ... I see again my old dancing a summer night in a neighborhood club.



NIGHTS IN HUNGARY - Foxtrot
Words and Music: Enrique Rodriguez and Armando To Albeiro

Only the Danube,
when in the clear night
hear your violin,
I feel my life is reborn
to penetrate my soul
its endless melody.
Let me drunk with the illusion, sing to me in my dreams

your emotion.
I want to live in this moment
love one night
gave me his heart. Gypsy Tap

with passion on the night of Hungary;
on the banks of the Danube
I left my life
your czardas have
taste of the kisses of his mouth in bloom. Hungary Nights

never, ever forget.

Enrique Rodriguez. Bandoneon player, director and composer (1901-1971). Reviled by the avant-garde and praised by the dancers, the orchestra enjoyed great popularity in the forties and fifties, both in Argentina and the rest of America.
