DON’T CRY FOR ME ARGENTINA 뮤지컬 “Evita”
작사,곡 Tim Rice/Andrew Lloyd Webber
From the musical “Evita”
Evita (Eva) Peron이 알젠틴 국민을 향해 희망과 격려를 주는 노래입니다.
우리에게는 뮤지컬보다 Madonna가 주연한 영화로 더 친숙한
이 뮤지컬은 Phantom of Opera와 함께Andrew Lloyd Weber의 대작중의 하나. 시골의 사생아로 태어난 Eva, 인생의 어려움을 극복하고 드디어는 남편 Juan Peron을 도와 대통령으로 만들고 사회개혁을 추진한 여성활동가. 그러나 암으로 33세에 세상을 떠나 알젠틴 국민들에게 영원히 기억되는 그녀의 노래.
It won't be easy, you'll think it strange
When I try to explain how I feel
But I still need your love after all that I've done
You won't believe me
All you will see is a girl you once knew
Although she's dressed up to the nines
At sixes and sevens with you
I had to let it happen, I had to change
Couldn't stay all my life down at heel
Looking out of the window, staying out of the sun
So I chose freedom
Running around, trying everything new
But nothing impressed me at all
I never expected it to
Don't cry for me Argentina
The truth is I never left you
All through my wild days
My mad existence
I kept my promise
Don't keep your distance
And as for fortune, and as for fame
I never invited them in
Though it seems to the world they were all I desired
They are illusions
They are not the solutions they promised to be
The answer was here all the time
I love you and hope you love me
Don't cry for me Argentina
Have I said too much?
There's nothing more I can think of to say to you.
But all you have to do is look at me to know
That every word is true
