José Feliciano - Guantanamera
“Guantanamera” means girl from Guantanamo. So, it’s a Cuban song, originally inspired by Celia Cruz, Queen of Salsa, from the 1940’s. The original early 1960’s hit song was recorded by The Sandpipers, arrangement by Pete Seeger.
José Feliciano’s version is the best of them all, though.

Like a rose.
Que bonitos ojos tienes
Debajo de esas dos cejas
Debajo de esas dos cejas
Que bonitos ojos tienes.
Ellos me quieren mirar
Pero si tu no los dejas
Pero si tu no los dejas
Ni siquiera parpadear.
Malaguena salerosa
Besar tus labios quisiera, pues
Besar tus labios quisiera.
Malaguena salerosa
Y decirte nina hermosa.
Que eres li........da y hechicera,
Que eres linda y hechicera
Como el candor de una rosa.
Si por pobre me desprecias
Yo te concedo razon
Yo te concedo razon
Si por pobre me desprecias.
Yo no te ofrezco riquezas
Te ofrezco mi corazon
Te ofrezco mi corazon
A cambio de mi pobreza.
Malaguena salerosa
Besar tus labios quisiera
Besar tus labios quisiera.
Malaguena salerosa
Y decirte nina hermosa.
Eres lin........da y hechicera,
Que eres linda y hechicera
Como el candor de una rosa.
Y decirte nina hermosa.

What pretty eyes you have,
Under those two eyebrows.
Under those two eyebrows,
What pretty eyes you have.
They want to look at me
But if you don’t let them
But if you don’t let them
Not even take a blink
Malaguena Salerosa(Rose leave of Malaga)
To kiss your lips is what I want
To kiss your lips is what I want
Malaguena Salerosa(Rose leave of Malaga)
And to call you: “beautiful girl”
For you are sweet and bewitching,
For you are sweet and bewitching,
As the innocence of a rose.
If you despise me bacuase I am poor,
I grant you reasoning,
I grant you reasoning,
If you despise me bacuase I am poor,
I do not offer you wealth (riches)
I offer you my heart.
I offer you my heart
In exchange for my poverty.

And to call you: “beautiful girl
That’s what everybody thought, lol. It’s really a sad love song, though. For example, roughly translated: “I’m a sincere guy, from a place where the palm trees grow, and before the time that I die, I want to chant out the verses of my soul to you, girl from Guantanamo.” I was close to some Cuban exiles due to having met their children in college, and this song was anthemic to them, despite having some apparent revolutionary connotations.

When The Chapel Bells Are Ringing....oh my goodness, I love it. I’m humming along.
I knew that The Browns sang that song, but didn’t realize that the title was The Three Bells until I went looking.
