Lyrics:
Now in Vienna there's ten pretty women
There's a shoulder where Death comes to cry
There's a lobby with nine hundred windows
There's a tree where the doves go to die
There's a piece that was torn from the morning
And it hangs in the Gallery of Frost
Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay
Take this waltz, take this waltz
Take this waltz with the clamp on it's jaws
Oh I want you, I want you, I want you
On a chair with a dead magazine
In the cave at the tip of the lily
In some hallway where love's never been
On a bed where the moon has been sweating
In a cry filled with footsteps and sand
Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay
Take this waltz, take this waltz
Take its broken waist in your hand
This waltz, this waltz, this waltz, this waltz
With it's very own breath of brandy and Death
Dragging it's tail in the sea
There's a concert hall in Vienna
Where your mouth had a thousand reviews
There's a bar where the boys have stopped talking
They've been sentenced to death by the blues
Ah, but who is it climbs to your picture
With a garland of freshly cut tears?
Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay
Take this waltz, take this waltz
Take this waltz it's been dying for years
There's an attic where children are playing
Where I've got to lie down with you soon
In a dream of Hungarian lanterns
In the mist of some sweet afternoon
And I'll see what you've chained to your sorrow
All your sheep and your lilies of snow
Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay
Take this waltz, take this waltz
With its "I'll never forget you, you know!"
This waltz, this waltz, this waltz, this waltz ...
With its very own breath of brandy and death
Dragging its tail in the sea
And I'll dance with you in Vienna
I'll be wearing a river's disguise
The hyacinth wild on my shoulder
My mouth on the dew of your thighs
And I'll bury my soul in a scrapbook
With the photographs there, and the moss
And I'll yield to the flood of your beauty
My cheap violin and my cross
And you'll carry me down on your dancing
To the pools that you lift on your wrist
Oh my love, Oh my love
Take this waltz, take this waltz
It's yours now. It's all that there is
{Instrumental}
(Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay) - เพลง
I assume many of you already know, but for those who don't: the lyrics of this incredibly beautiful song are based on a poem ("Pequeño vals vienés") by the Spanish poet Federico García Lorca, who was killed by the Fascists in 1936. Leonard Cohen was a big fan of Lorca's poetry.
And Cohen was deeply inspired by Lorca... ❤️
Thank you so much for the information.
Thank-you
David thank you Mate, I’m gonna google that, and find out more. Ta Mate 👍
@@DavidSmith-sf4dr 👍
Notice the respect he shows for his band, and the respect they show him in return. Such class
i never whithnesd more inspired introduction of a band. must be such a honour to play with him!
@@antungajovski5916 oui,mais là c'est lui la vedette
😅
He was the greatest! ❤
I so miss him.
Luckily I've got all his albums on LPs + a few pirate versions.
Now I've got to listen to them all over. 🥰
Always. I have been on two concerts, in Poland and in England. LEGEND ❤
Unbelievably beautiful. Brings me to tears. He was a genius.
Ditto from me .
Merci , pour ces deux commentaires et où je partage la même intense et profonde émotion......BRINGS ME TO TEARS....... Merci Monsieur Cohen ❤❤❤!!!
I can't imagine what it would have been like to know this man personally. What a gift he was and still is.
Заборавих да споменем његову млађу сестру за кију не везала нека фина и нежна љубав. Била је много лепа и слатка.
I was lucky enough to attend several of Mr. Cohen's later concerts. It was always great, but the "best" moment was always when he introduced everyone on stage. Sometimes not even on stage, but the light and sound people too. And he always did it with such grace and respect. The world was a little bit better with him in it.
Que homem respeitoso! Muita saudade de sua linda música!
Ja, das habe ich genau so erlebt, unvergesslich schön❤
Bin im Kranken und höre seine Musik ,sie gibt mir Mut❤❤❤@@helenapestana5206
I so agree. I miss him being in the world
The epitome of poetry, grace, artistry, and elegance. Beauty beyond words.
Big clap for the side singers
He was a gentleman. We miss you, Mr. Leonard Cohen.
After 50 years, his music and voice still moves me.
Met him being 14. I'm 42 now. What a man ❤
Beautiful
Met him beeing 14. I'm 66 now. ❤
This is so beautiful it hurts.
Leonard Cohen was one of a kind! I can't believe we don''t have him anymore. He was one of the best! I listen to his music often. It gives me great pleasure and I recognize him as the fantastic artist he was!!!!!!!!!
Si avverte che e molto bella Non ho capito niente
Islam follows stupid .....................
take this shot
I'm still dancing. You will never take this dance for it resides in heaven.
To me this is the most beautiful song to have ever been sung by the greatest poet to have ever sung a poem. Backed by a humbleness that could tear a wall down.
Ele foi o melhor e mais sensual.! Fiquei maravilhada qd o ouvi a primeira vez e nunca mais parei! Ele é único e encantador!!!
I wanted to pass a comment here but no point as you have said it all .. !
You should go and listen to Silvia Pérez Cruz - Pequeño Vals Vienes
Islam follows idiots?????????????????????????/
J'adore Léonard Cohen.
We were damn lucky to have Leonard sing so many song for us. Even luckier those who got the absolute privilege to see him perform live. Peace Leonard.
Era y será unico
So grateful I got to see him in New York City: he started a little bit late, but then did almost three full hours. He’d told us in the audience at the beginning that he was going to leave it all on the field. He kept his promise.
@@johnwirenius8152 How wonderful! Couldn't be more jealous. And who plays for three hours these days!
The sweetness of each face being recognized by Leonard is
truly magical...What a beautiful gift he was to the world
If there was just a sound I'd be able to listen to for the rest of eternity, it would be his voice.
God, I wish I was there. The man's music truly plays to the soul. Unfortunately, I am 21 and discovered Leonards's music after his time. His music will live on through my generation and many others.
Ich bin sein Fan seit 50 Jahren und durfte einige Konzerte mit ihm erleben. Die besten, als er schon ein "alter Mann " war. Es ist toll, dass auch junge Menschen seine Musik lieben
@@sabinefolser7377 wie schön einen deutschen Kommentar zu Ehren dieses wundervollen Künstlers hier zu lesen. Er berührt die Seele mit seiner Musik und der Feinheit seines Wesens...mit 72 Lebensjahren höre ich ihn noch öfter als in jungen Jahren
@@sabinefolser7377 ich bin ein 20 jähriger ägypter ,der ihn vor 3 Jahren kennengelernt hat und man wie schön sind seine Lieder und wie emotional und passioniert er ist. Ich bin nur traurig dass ich jetzt nicht die Möglichkeit habe in seinem Konzert teilzunehmen aber was ich weiß ist, seine Lieder werden mit mir für immer leben.
Can totally relate with you bro , 20 years here. Used to listen to his dance me to the end love with my ex-girlfriend and she used to love it very much too, and continued listening to it long after her.
His songs bring me in an emotional state no other song can.
One thing is for sure tho, his songs will be played in my wedding,maybe the attendees will love his songs and even if smh they don’t,he and his songs have reserved the place already.
May his soul rest in peace
@@sabinefolser7377 das stimmt. Seine besten Lieder war nach 1990 geschrieben und seine allerbesten Lieder nachdem er über 65 war
I just discovered Leonard Cohen. What a synthesis of poetry, music, candor, chivalry, intelligence and beauty. Salve Maestro!
Just awesome have you watched his interviews
@@sandrarose5128 I saw and heard his speech upon receiving the Reina Sofia award. I was deeply moved and from there I went to look for his compositions. An extraordinary human being.
Just discovered! Oh my, what an amazing body of work he left for you to discover. I was born the year he released his first album, I grew up on his music, nearly as present as air in my life. Of course I appreciate it much more now than when I was a child. How different it would be to discover it all now. Blessings.
Read his books of poetry!
@@michellefowlie9008 I grew up with it and then I turned around and he is getting old my that's does that mean I'm getting old too! Precious times I loved it
Leonard Cohen was pure talent, class, charm, there will never be another one like him. His voice like velvet and his lyrics pure emotions. What a shame he's gone.
And all the PC feministas criticize him for all the women he laid. Wish I had been one.
Francesca, I agree, except his voice was not like velvet. More like gravel in a cement mixer. But I love him. I want to sing and share some drinks with him in heaven some day. And we'll save a seat for Anthony Bourdain.
incomparable
Totally agree with you.
@@neildretzka3237l like your comments. 👍
Loved the song and the performance but what struck me was what an honor it is (was) for the musicians to be introduced and honored by the words of this man. This would be the high point of any musician's career. Beautiful.
Seen this magical man only once in Vienna in 2013 which I'll never forget. I've loved him since I was a teenager. I'm almost 70 now and still adore his music. This is a beautiful song.
Je vais atteindre les 78 ans,et Léonard Cohen demeure mon artiste préféré
I’ve found the antidote to lockdown at70yrs old I’ve really listened to Leonard Cohen heavenly .
ME TOO ...
Lost mother to Alzheimer a few weeks ago. Rediscovered Leonard's music and found it very uplifting.
There was a concert here in Denmark, at a place called Fruens Bøge, Odense.
It was outdoors, only 6000 people.
Leonard was 76 and we knew this would be our only chance of seing him live.
It had been raining for days, but that one evening the weather was only hot and humid.
My wife and I never forget that evening, it was magic.
See you in the Tower of song, Sir. I'll be in the basement somewhere.
Happiness is few moments...
I'll see u in the basement my friend in that tower of song ,, at any ayvayy
The same for me in Belfast.. went on my own. I’ve listened to him since I was 12yrs old. Magnificent.. best £100 ever spent on a concert.
Depuis la France,from France,merci pour le partage,thanks to have share...
I was promised tickets to go see him when he was in Dublin, Ireland, but I never got the tickets. One of the biggest regrets in my life. Rest in Peace Leonard Cohen.
My love for this song never fades no matter how many times I hear it. R.I.P Leonard, there will never be anyone to match you xxx
I feel exactly the same 💕
Es para siempre. como JS Bach. ♥️
What a poet! His music is like immortal human being with all wonderful and painful gifts of love and beauty.
( NONSENSE ) NON IMMORTAL.
This is actually Federico Garcia Lorca’s poem “Little Viennese Waltz “ by Leonard Cohen , thanks to them both 👏👏👏
Yes, he is a great poet, but this song is a poem by Federico García Lorca
Он ей дал жизнь . Они оба Гармоничны в этом . Спасибо большое . Прекрасно исполнено .
Mi ídolo ❤️❤️💎💎💎💎🎶🎶🎶
The Webb sisters.
The best choice Cohen ever could have made after a 15 year hiatus.
They add such depth with contrast to his already baritone voice.
Yes. I saw this tour twice (!) in Detroit and Boston in a period of 10 days or so. I recently found my copy of this CD after a few years. The sisters have angelic voices, particularly Hattie in this song.
맞는 말입니다!
Even the presentation of his musicians sounds like poetry.What a velvet great voice
Lovely song, lovely words, lovely man and what respect for his band and backing singers, my god you are missed and so wish i had come across you earlier and seen you live RIP Leonard sadly missed ❤❤
The whole MAN is music..and his SOUL is perfect beauty.ETERNAL!
I am totally mesmerized by Leonard. I am drawn to his senior self like a magnet. I am looking into his soul and he touches mine so tenderly and emotionally. I adore his voice and persona at this stage of his life.
He was unique in life and is everlasting in death. RIP Leonard Cohen
Marlene
Edward, Leonard Cohen was one of those anomalies that he kept sounding better as he aged. I also bowed my knee to him publicly as a prophet. I am a Christian, he was a Jew, but he was the gate keeper of something from the Divine i sought.
@@budahbaba7856
Firstly I am Marlene (female) For reasons best known to herself my granddaughter decided to put every item on my phone in my husband's name !! I really need to try and change it.
I too am Christian with some Jewish ancestry.
I am probably repeating myself, but I am totally mesmerized and bewitched by the 70 + year old Leonard Cohen.
I feel I can "read" the emotion in his soul during these late in life tour performances.
I find myself compelled to watch whilst I listen to him.
I thought he was a magnetic talent in his earlier years, but the stirring in my soul that his later genius brings on in me is uncanny.
I absolutely adore him and his amazing musical magic to a degree far above any earthly comprehension.
I bow/curtsey to his amazing,compelling musical genius and persona.
Marlene
I thought I had something to say, but this reply says it all for me. I do need to add that I just heard Hallelujah a few days ago and am now obsessed with finding out all I can about this man and his songs/poetry. Thank you Leonard.
Hi there, I'm Marlene (not Eddie!!!) I am so thrilled that you liked my emotion about Mr Cohen in his latter years. It's difficult to explain in words how he moves me to feel. I see and feel a tenderness and holiness radiating from his face, and indeed his very presence. The lyrics of his songs are nothing short of poetic or factual beauty.
I am drawn to this bounteous presence like a moth to a flame. I can't stop watching and listening once I start.
I am of advancing years and reflect on death quite a bit. When I watch Leonard (the elder) I feel relaxed and comforted about passing. As I am watching, his physical being removes my fear of death. We all know that's what awaits us at the end of this journey called life. Thank you Mr Cohen for your comfort and enlightenment. I will hold it in my heart until I say "good bye" to flesh and blood.
I agree, Marlene. A friend of mine back when I was about 16 was into his poetry and music. I was vaguely interested in him and remembered his song "Suzanne". Then I heard Hallelujah and I was in love. He just reminds me SO much as he aged in looks and eyes and smile of someone else who was a very dear friend.
I've never seen someone give honours to his musicians and singers so graceful as Cohen :)
I could say the same thing.I just discovered Leonard Cohen. What a voice!
Me also
AND ME ,RAY TWELVE STRINGS X
I'm in my 50's and just discovered this amazing man! That voice, OMG!!!! I can't believe I missed his beautiful music all my life. WOW, this man had it in spades. R.I.P. Leonard, thank you for the beautiful music! ~♥~
Personnaly I discovered him really when he died and I was 60 years old 😊
Before, I was knowing only Suzanne which I never love much and I love now all her songs.
Exactly the same, EXACTLY. Amazing Waltz with Leonard.
Leonard Cohen touched a different frequency in so many of us
Why did we not know of him before
So very true.
@@joycegrant1794 I don't know living my friend and wife 35 years he said listen I recorded 4 his albums
Speechless . . . Almost never happens . . . I am a sucker for a waltz, a lover of wonderful instrumentals and vocals, and hypnotically attracted to poetry that moves my soul . This checks all the boxes.❤❤
Love will find a way. 🙏
Still praying for that 🙏
introducing the band members is pure class. because he knows without them, he cant do it alone. what a good man. real loss to society. but he lives on forever and i can say did actually live a life of worth and changed the world.
Bravo to all who accompanied Leonard!!!💕
Look how beautiful he is with his band. Never will there be another performer so great that feels his music so much. I miss him so much!
One in a zillion you..Rest in the presence of the Lord...
What a composition! It gives me goosebumps! Such modesty such grace....and that baritone! Salute to the legend... loved his introduction of the group at the end..that's how gentlemen are!!!
What a legend - cannot get enough of his wisdom- once in a lifetime
What a beautiful being. You can feel the respect for his fellow musicians and the love he has for his art. Wow, just wow... Look at the way they look at him 😭
Any word to describe Leonard Cohen will fall short , this man was out of this world . His lyrics and his music is simply magnificent
YES!
What more can be said - there no words in English💜
...even the way he introduces his fellow musicians is so graceful & classy!
Oh loving Leonard, you will forever be remembered .....
Love from Bangladesh ❤
Immortale!
It's May 2020, listening to this song while locking down by the virus outbreak...... what a comfort!
me too.
same!! tears...this is like a cleansing for the soul
Comfort indeed !
The song and your words make me feel as if we're connected somehow, it's just comforting to know that we all might be in very different places of the world, feeling exactly the same right now:) so this was just a little thing, but thank you
Enjoy I love this song I luv all his songs such a gift we need in this chaotic time
Surely the most graceful and marvellous tribute to fellow musicians I will ever see. Today I have finally encountered Leonard Cohen, incomparable genius, for the first time.
And thank you Leonard for all the joy your music has given us! RIP.
I am so glad I was young the same time he was, I am glad I have still enjoyed him as an old man, he will never fade away, I will.
Katie...Yes LC , enjoyed him too, for many many years....
Regards...(another North)🇬🇧
An artist
I love how much he adores what he is doing, the amount of love he showers everyone with during and after the songs closure is sublime and endearing. R.I.P. Leonard your voice carries me and many others to places we rarely get to go. 🖤
Mr. Cohen is brilliant. I am in absolute awe of his talent and understanding.
Je regrette d'avoir entendu parler de Léonard Cohen si tard. Il offre à son public toutes les beautés, toutes les émotions avec cette voix qui vous enveloppe , vous envoûte à jamais.
Comment lui dire merci ?
Ouvir Cohen é um alento para meu coração e alma! Ele é simplesmente mágico .Sua voz é o que existe de mais lindo. num homem! Caramba! Eu o ouviria noite e dia.! Que doçura!!!!!!!!!
A garland of freshly cut tears! Damn Lorca was good!
We have always loved his poetic lyrics and music.There is such a symbiotic relationship with his band....What style
A gorgeous and haunting song that has meant so much to me over the years. Bravo, Leonard, you are missed!
Greatly
Touching to tears. What a talent, what a heart. He wrote the songs which forever will be on the top of any parades. He really was blessed.
a total masterpiece, and the stunning voice of this girl, is like an angel
Which one?
I’m so sad that I’ve missed out on knowing about this amazing singer/poetic man. Thankfully he leaves behind his music, poetry, and videos for his newest and upcoming fans. ❤️❤️❤️
Sublime is Mr Cohen ..
This is quite a fantastic ending of a concert, and also a beautiful farewell of Leonard. This waltz continues into eternity with its "I´ll never forget you, you know". And out from the stage he walks.
This awesome man was my teacher that I NEVER met. But he left his teachings behind for me to decide how and when he can teach me and yes, it sporadic but always fruitful and endless. What an awesome music man.
I feel the same
So he should have had the Nobel Price!!!!
The part where Hattie Webb sings harmony with him is to die for. It's just unbelievably ride on the mark. That's artistry
Leonard Cohen es irrepetible, su elegancia, su sencillez, su sobria y limpia sonrisa, su voz profunda, su hondo sentimiento, sus coros, sus músicos... Leonard Cohen fue un magnífico y fecundo poeta, un compositor genial, un intérprete simpar y un ser humano UNICO. Adoraba y adoro sus canciones, me aportan tanto que estaré eternamente agradecido a este mensajero de meditaciones y reflexiones tan elevadas.
Gracias MAESTRO COHEN
Супер маэстро!
Today, March 25. Just in the middle of an universal storm called coronavirus. This voice, this music is like a gift from heaven. Gracias maestro!
Me too at lease we still have this beautiful music never die.
Amazing singer just discovered. Beautiful Leonard Cohen
It's great to know people are still discovering him!
Absolutely fantastic
The best version of
one of the best songs ever written
by one of the greatest songwriters of all time
I am so glad I saw him live twice
He was a true hero and gentleman
Leonard always called his audience 'friends'
So thank you my friend Leonard
You will never be forgotten
RIP
R.I.P
LOVE L COHEN

this is a poem by Spanish poet Federico García LORCA to which Leonard put music (Pequeño Vals Vienés, "a little Viennese Walz". He Loved Lorca´s poems so much that he named her daughter...Lorca
Y
Isn't it amazing how beautiful he was.Age only enhanced him.
His songs and delivery are emotion incarnated.
i have no regrets in my life except never seeing this god sing live.
That’s such a shame... It was truly a spiritual and heavenly experience. TH-cam doesn’t do it justice
정말 공감합니다. 저 공연에 있었던 사람은 얼마나 행복했을까요
Diese Musik wird es nicht mehr geben, nie wieder so ein Sänger, einzigartig und so ein Gefühl es geht unter die Haut man spürt es tief im Herzen 🎶🎼🎸🎷🎺🎻❤️💓
Ich fühle genauso grüße von renate uit den netherlands
Such sincerity and love that he had for his co-musicians!
Pure genius that was Leonard Cohen. RIP you beautiful man
I just discovered Leonard Cohen… what a singer, with that distinct voice. Bravo!
The way he credits all of the backing musicians is adorable :)
I'm really touched that he chose to conclude this concert with this song. It was the first song I reached to when I heard of his passing. Incredible performance of an extraordinary song.
"There's a tree where doves go to die."
It does't get much better than that.
Sincerly, a fan.
I think it's "a street where the doves go to dine". Montreal has a serious pigeon problem...but I suppose that if someone put out poison for them, the doves would probably go find a quiet, shady place to die too.
This song is actually an english version of a Federico García Lorca´s poem named ''Pequeño vals vienés". Cohen was very fond of García Lorca's poetry throughout his life so this is a way of paying tribute to him. It is indeed a great musicalized version of the beautiful poem!
@@mariaquinones8194 there are as so many meanings in original poem of Garcia Lorca, as not all of them Cohen has translate in English.
But both poets are great.
"En Viena hay (..) un bosque de palomas disecadas".
This is the line in the poem of García Lorca.
The traslation Leonard Cohen made of the poem is very, very good.
Somebody liked my comment.
So I continue. "Ten pretty women" is opera by Viennese composer Franz von Suppé "Zehn Mädchen und kein Mann".
"Shoulder where Death comes to cry" is "ah, mein liber Augustin".
"A tree where the doves go to die" is Viennese antispikes.
"The hyacinth wild on my shoulder" reminds medieval "Roman a la Rose".
If anybody has descript another lines of this poem I ask to write here.
I really want to understand what Garcia Lorca wrote about.
i never get tired of listening
Me niether!!!❤️✨🥰🌹
Wonderful man and singer!!! His songs will never die...
Remember your father at the Spanish war was fighting next to Lorca. and now the death comes to cry on my shoulder and I soothe her, then she speaks with me about you and give me her word she shall reunite us again...Take this walz, Sally the one we danced at your godson's wedding...beautiful days.
And just hold on I am coming soon.
мой кумир!!!!!!!!! его нежный бархатный голос не спутаешь ни с кем другим!!!!!!!!!!!! светлая память
Que maravilla, directo al corazón. Un maestro insuperable. Voz, melodía, poesía repleta de humanidad. Descansa en paz Leonard, nuestros corazones jamás te olvidarán.
Слушая Коэна и изумительный бэк-вокал, понимаешь, что такое совершенство...
как можно петь о жизни не прожив ее?
I love him since, I am 12 years old. A löng time ago, but he himself accompanied me myself the rest of my life. Now I just heard it by mistake, started crying and couldn't stop. Yes, I am alive, he passed away... I love him so much, and will never love someone like him..... Apologizes for this emotional post, but it is the simple truth. Annette from Munich. PS : Leonard rest in piece, I love you! All your fucking great songs.
A poet. One never tires of Cohen. Awesome lyrics, music and arrangements.
The lyrics are an adaptation of Federico García Lorca's poem "Pequeño Vals Vienes". Lorca being a big inspiration on Cohen and his poetry.
@@luismarioguerrerosanchez4747 here is an old Austin City Limits version talking about when he discovered Frederico Garcia Lorca as a teenager th-cam.com/video/NPCWAZP-z5A/w-d-xo.html
this is a poem by Spanish poet Federico García LORCA to which Leonard put music. He Loved Lorca´s poems so much that he named her daughter...Lorca
I loved Cohen as a child and I love his songs 40 years later with the same passion.
I have as well..his voice and eords carried me through a rough childhood.weve lost a treasure..still crying for the loss...
I never what to say good bye the the master poet, Sir Leonard Cohen!
Now in Vienna there's ten pretty women
There's a shoulder where death comes to cry
There's a lobby with nine hundred windows
There's a tree where the doves go to die
There's a piece that was torn from the morning
And it hangs in theGallery of Frost
Aey, aey, aey, aey
Take this waltz, take this waltz
Take this waltz with the clamp on its jaws
Oh I want you, I want you, I want you
On a chair with a dead magazine
In the cave at the tip of the lily
In some hallway where love's never been
On a bed where the moon has been sweating
In a cry filled with footsteps and sand
Aey, aey, aey, aey
Take this waltz, take this waltz
Take its broken waist in your hand
This waltz, this waltz, this waltz, this waltz
With its very own breath of brandy and death
Dragging its tail in the sea
There's a concert hall in Vienna
Where your mouth had a thousand reviews
There's a bar where the boys have stopped talking
They've been sentenced to death by the blues
But who is it climbs to your picture
With a garland of freshly cut tears?
Aey, aey, aey, aey
Take this waltz, take this waltz
Take this waltz it's been dying for years
There's an attic where children are playing
Where I've got to lie down with you soon
In a dream of Hungarian lanterns
In the mist of some sweet afternoon
And I'll see what you've chained to your sorrow
All your sheep and your lilies of snow
Aey, aey, aey, aey
Take this waltz, take this waltz
With its, I'll never forget you, you know
This waltz, this waltz, this waltz, this waltz
With its very own breath of brandy and death
Dragging its tail in the sea
And I'll dance with you in Vienna
I'll be wearing a river's disguise
The hyacinth wild on my shoulder
My mouth on the dew of your thighs
And I'll bury my soul in a scrapbook
With the photographs there, and the moss
And I'll yield to the flood of your beauty
My cheap violin and my cross
And you'll carry me down on your dancing
To the pools that you lift on your wrist
Oh my love, oh my love
Take this waltz, take this waltz
It's yours now, it's all that there is
Aey, aey, aey, aey

In October 2020... It's still shivering ...
Here on 11-05-2020
Saw Leonard at his last Australian concert in Melbourne. A highlight of my life, as an older guy he did an amazing performance. Mesmerising. Never forget it. So glad I was able to go.
How can one put into words the genius of this man. A true master of his field, simply not better.
" Он был королём человеческих сердец..." RIP
우리 아부지보다 1년 늦게 나셨고 1년먼저 가셔쎴네요... 정말 좋은 분여셨는데...이 영상을 열번이상 보고있어요...당신은 정말 멋진사람..당신처럼 유명할 순 없지만 당신의 인간에 대한 존중감은 우리아버지와 비슷....그래서 감동.....눈 물...!!!!
One of Leonards most beautiful renderings
