Don't Cry for Me Argentina、エヴィータ・ペロンのお話

マリア・エバ・ドゥアルテ・デ・ペロン(María Eva Duarte de Perón、1919年5月7日 - 1952年7月26日)は、アルゼンチンの女優、政治家。私生児として生まれながらフアン・ペロン大統領と結婚し、ファーストレディとなった後は政治にも介入するようになった。現在でもアルゼンチン国内では人気が高く、親しみをこめてエビータ(Evita) と呼ばれる

まあ、しかし、出自は免れない。貧乏家族の出自は、その国家の政権を取った夫がいようと、貧乏が基本。成金さね。

しかし、この女、ただ者じゃなかった。

だから、アルゼンチンでは今でも崇拝者がいるんだろうし、マドンナもカレン・カーペンターも彼女の歌を歌ったのだよ。

えええ?

カレン・カーペンターがまさか?本当か?

おお!確かに、これは、マドンナなんて目じゃないぞ!

ダメだ!以下のコイツラ、キーが高すぎて、この歌の真意を伝えられない!

"Don't Cry For Me Argentina" Lyrics

[Eva:]
It won't be easy, you'll think it strange
When I try to explain how I feel
That 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 seemed 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

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

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
