LAS HOJAS VERDES
(Green Leaves of Summer)
El Dúo Dinámico
La voz de los campos llegó nuevamente
Sentí su llamada, oí su cantar
La canción del verano el hogar me recuerda
Y el verdor de las hojas tu dulce mirar
Llegó la abundancia
Nació la alegría
Y el sol resplandece
Igual mi querer
Nacerán hojas verdes
Nacerán otra vez
Y al cubrir la campiña
Contigo estaré
Llegó la abundancia
Nació la alegría
Y el sol resplandece
Igual mi querer
Nacerán hojas verdes
Nacerán otra vez
Y al cubrir la campiña
Contigo estaré
Contigo estaré

A time to be reapin', a time to be sowin'.
The green leaves of Summer are callin' me home.
'Twas so good to be young then, in a season of plenty,
When the catfish were jumpin' as high as the sky.
A time just for plantin', a time just for ploughin'.
A time to be courtin' a girl of your own.
'Twas so good to be young then, to be close to the earth,
And to stand by your wife at the moment of birth.
A time to be reapin', a time to be sowin'.
The green leaves of Summer are callin' me home.
'Twas so good to be young then, with the sweet smell of apples,
And the owl in the pine tree a-winkin' his eye.
A time just for plantin', a time just for ploughin'.
A time just for livin', a place for to die.
'Twas so good to be young then, to be close to the earth,
Now the green leaves of Summer are callin' me home.
'Twas so good to be young then, to be close to the earth,
Now the green leaves of Summer are callin' me home.
