Chiquitita

Lately selalu je terdengar antara lagu favourite Arwah Aca (ayah ammi) kat TikTok.  Rindunya dengan Aca.  

Mereka yang remaja, membesar di zaman 70an memang inilah antara band yang paling dorang suka.  Abba, The Beatles, Eagles, Bee Gees... banyaklah lagi.  Arwah mama masa kahwin dengan Aca back in 1974, tak pandai pun cakap English.  Yelah sekolah pun sampai darjah 6 mama kata.  Tapi sebab English adalah bahasa pertuturan Aca dan adik beradik dia (kalau nak rahsia-rahsia dari nenek ammi) maka mama pun belajarlah.  Dan alhamdulillah, mama adalah fast learner.  Jangan nak cong mama ye. And arwah mama can sing this song...laju tau lagu ni.


CHIQUITITA - ABBA

Chiquitita, tell me what's wrong
You're enchained by your own sorrow
In your eyes there is no hope for tomorrow
How I hate to see you like this
There is no way you can deny it
I can see that you're oh so sad, so quiet

Chiquitita, tell me the truth
I'm a shoulder you can cry on
Your best friend, I'm the one you must rely on
You were always sure of yourself
Now I see you've broken a feather
I hope we can patch it up together

Chiquitita, you and I know
How the heartaches come and they go and the scars they're leaving
You'll be dancing once again and the pain will end
You will have no time for grieving

Chiquitita, you and I cry
But the sun is still in the sky and shining above you
Let me hear you sing once more like you did before
Sing a new song, Chiquitita
Try once more like you did before
Sing a new song, Chiquitita

So the walls came tumbling down
And your love's a blown out candle
All is gone and it seems too hard to handle
Chiquitita, tell me the truth
There is no way you can deny it
I see that you're oh so sad, so quiet

Chiquitita, you and I know
How the heartaches come and they go and the scars they're leaving
You'll be dancing once again and the pain will end
You will have no time for grieving
Chiquitita, you and I cry
But the sun is still in the sky and shining above you
Let me hear you sing once more like you did before
Sing a new song, Chiquitita
Try once more like you did before
Sing a new song, Chiquitita
Try once more like you did before
Sing a new song, Chiquitita

  2. Lagu Abba ni tahu dancing queen je. Itupun sebab ramai yang buat cover dan selalu dinyanyikan dalam pertandingan reality show. Lagu ni tak pernah dengar.
