Lyrics in Spanish and English translation: Nostalgia, me lleno de nostalgia Al sentirme ausente de mi patria querida Recordando su gente , sus pueblos, sus praderas Y mientras más recuerdo, más te quiero Venezuela Me dicen que ahora estás más bella, Que los que te visitan se quedan encantados Se emociona mi alma y emprendo una oración Dando gracias al cielo y a nuestro Libertador. Orgullosa me siento al decir "Venezuela" Pues tienes para todos un poco de amistad Aquí lo he comprobado desde un pais lejano Todo el que te visita quiere volver allá. English Translation: Nostalgia, I am filled with nostalgia When I feel far away from my beloved country Remembering its people, its villages, its meadows... And the more memories I have, I love you more Venezuela. They tell me that now you are more beautiful, That everyone who visits you is enchanted. It thrills my soul and I undertake a prayer thanking Heaven and our Deliverer. I feel proud to say "Venezuela" Because you have for everyone a bit of friendship. Even from this far away country, I have the proof Everyone who visits you wants to return.

Lyrics in Creole and English translation: La mazouk en avant. Kavalié ka pointé , Les dames subordonnées Les mains sur le coté. Robes, jupons, souliers d'or, Colliers, foulards madras, Peau kréyol Martinique, Yo peu di yo joli. Au bordèl Lè yo bèl! Yo dou, yo dou, yo dou! Yo joli, yo joli! Pa ni, pa ni konsa. Junn' kon vieu ka pasé, Étranjé ka rivé, Yo ka di Martinique Pa ni pli dou ki sa. The mazurka is beginning. The gentlemen are pointing, The ladies who accompany them Have their hands on their hips. Dresses, skirts, gold shoes, Necklaces, madras scarves, Creole skin of Martinique, You can say they are pretty. They are beautiful! They are sweet, sweet, sweet! They are pretty, pretty! There is none other, none other like them. Young and old who pass by, Strangers who arrive. They will say there is no other place As sweet as Martinique.

Ben: You work and work, for years and years, You're always on the go. You never take a minute off, Too busy making dough. Some day you say, you'll have some fun, When you're a millionaire. Imagine all that fun you'll have in your old rocking chair... Chorus: Enjoy yourself, it's later than you think. Enjoy yourself, while you're still in the pink. The years go by as quickly as a wink. Enjoy yourself, enjoy yourself! It's later than you think. Davis: You save and scrimp, you scrimp and save, You're toiling every day. Then through a series of complex derivative swaps Your savings go away. Stability is relative, you'll always have that fear. My advice for investing is to buy your friend a beer. Ben: I met a man from 'round the block With two artificial lungs. Can't smoke no more, can't drink no more But he still likes to have his fun. He says to me, "I'm going down But I'm still in the game you know. So you run home and get that clarinet and I'll play the piano." Davis: (Monologue in praise of New Orleans' Katrina expatriates) Chorus

Wassail and Wassail all over the town The cup it is white and the ale it is brown The cup it is made of the good ashen tree And so is the malt of the best barley For it’s your wassail and it’s our wassail… And it’s “joy be to you” and a jolly wassail. There was an old man and he had an old cow And how for to keep her he didn’t know how He built up a barn for to keep his cow warm And a drop or two of cider will do us no harm No harm, no harm, no harm, no harm… And a drop or two of cider will do us no harm Oh where is the maid with the silver headed pin To open the door and let us come in? Oh master and missus are sitting by the fire Pray think upon poor travelers a-travelling in the mire For it’s your wassail and it’s our wassail… And it’s “joy be to you” and a jolly wassail.

about

Duke Ellington was once asked by an interviewer, “which of your many classic compositions is your favorite?” His answer, “the next one.”
Here in Panoramaland, we’ve been releasing a new track every month since May 2014 through our Song-of-the-Month club, Good Music For You, always with great anticipation. We hope you enjoy the music on this CD, our second sampler from the GMFY series. And if you’d like to hear more, visit our website (PanoramaLandNOLA.com) and join the club to receive… The Next One.

This album begins and ends with Caribbean New Year celebrations. There are also two Christmas songs, as well music for two Jewish holidays, Hanukkah and Purim.
