Song of Today

Olen kuunnellut ommellessa paljon Queenia viime aikoina, varsinkin A Day at the Races-albumia. Se on mielestäni yksi yhtyeen  parhaista albumeista. Yksi suosikkini levyltä on päätösraita Teo Torriate, se on todella kaunis ja koskettava kappale. Vuosi sitten minulle läheinen henkilö nukkui pois näihin aikoihin ja kuunnellessani tätä kappaletta en voi olla miettimättä häntä.

IN ENGLISH:
While sewing I have been listening to lot of Queen lately, especially their album called A Day at the Races. I think it's one of their best albums. One of my favourite song is Teo Torriate, it's very beautiful and touching. A year ago a person who was very close to me died and when I listen to this song, I think of her.

Teo Torriate 

(music and lyrics by Brian May)

When i'm gone 
No need to wonder if i ever think of you
The same moon shines
The same wind blows 
For both of us and time is but a paper moon
Be not gone

Though i'm gone
It's as though  I hold the flower that touches you
A new life grows
The blossom knows
There's no one else could warm my heart as much as you
Be not gone

Let us cling together as the years go by
Oh my love my love
In the quiet of the night
Let our candle always burn
Let us never lose the lessons we have learned

Teo torriatte konomama iko
Aisuruhito yo
Shizukana yoi ni
Hikario tomoshi
Itoshiki oshieo idaki

Hear my song
Still think of me
The way you've come to think of me
The nights grow long
But dreams live on
Just close your pretty eyes
And you can be with me
Dream on

Teo torriatte konomama iko...

When i'm gone
They'll say we were all fools
And we don't understand
Oh be strong 
Don't turn your heart
We're all, you're all 
We're all for all for always

Let us cling together as the years go by
Oh my love my love
In the quiet of the night
Let our candle always burn
Let us never lose the lessons we have learned
