Bienvenid@ al que yo llamo "mi blog de los idiomas". He retomado la sana costumbre de estudiar idiomas, como el inglés y me pareció buena idea crear este espacio para contribuir a ello. Todo siempre con el trasfondo de la sanación universal que es mi dharma y la constante de mi eterna existencia sana.Si tienes alguna cosa que decir en otro idioma o aportar para una mejor vida y aprendizaje, puedes encontrarme en: annanda.spain@gmx.es annapeaceandlotoflove@gmail.com

"My small Bibliography in English".
A continuación, el listado de los libros -libritos por el momento, je,je!!, por algo se empieza- que ya he leído en inglés; unos porque nos los facilita nuestros profesor en clase y otros porque, de forma autodidacta, los saco de la biblioteca de nuestra escuela.
(Hablando de la biblioteca quisiera hacer un breve inciso para agradecer a nuestra escuela de idiomas la existencia de la misma y los servicios que en ella nos ofrecen y, por supuesto, mi compromiso de usar debidamente los ordenadores y de cuidar y no estropear ni robar los libros ni ningún otro material de la misma).
Siguiendo con "mi pequeña blibliografía en inglés" aquí os detallo títulos y autores y alguna que otra editorial. Como siempre, espero y deseo os resulte útil y os sea divertido.

Show must go on.
Show must go on.
Queen.
Empty spaces - what are we living for
Abandoned places
I guess we know the score
On and on, does anybody know what we are looking for...
Another hero, another mindless crime
Behind the curtain, in the pantomime
Hold the line, does anybody want to take it anymore
The show must go on
The show must go on, yeah
Inside my heart is breaking
My make - up may be flaking
But my smile still stays on
Whatever happens, I'll leave it all to chance
Another heartache, another failed romance
On and on, does anybody know what we are living for ?
I guess I'm learning (I'm learning learning, learning)
I must be warmer now
I'll soon be turning (turning, turning turning)
Round the corner now
Outside the dawn is breaking
But inside in the dark I'm aching to be free
The show must go on
The show must go on, yeah, yeah
Ooh, inside my heart is breaking
My make - up may be flaking
But my smile still stays on
Yeah yeah, whoa wo oh oh
My soul is painted like the wings of butterflies
Fairytales of yesterday will grow but never die
I can fly - my friends
The show must go on (go on, go on, go on) yeah yeah
The show must go on (go on, go on, go on)
I'll face it with a grin
I'm never giving in
On - with the show
The show must go on (yeah)
the shom must go on
Ooh, I'll top the bill, I'll overkill
I have to find the will to carry on
On with the show
On with the show
The show - the show must go on
Go on, go on, go on, go on, go on
Go on, go on, go on, go on, go on
Go on, go on, go on, go on, go on
Go on, go on, go on, go on, go on
Go on, go on

Expresiones en inglés.
Lo típico, navegando por internet buscando otra cosa, he entrado en un blog donde me he encontrado ésto que esa persona encontró en otro sitio web y bueno... por si sirve... aunque siempre teniendo en cuenta que muchas de estas cosas son a título de curiosidad y anécdota porque a mí me gusta llevar el respeto y las buenas formas hasta en las lenguas... pero también reírse un rato viene bien gracias a ellas... No conozco ninguno de los dos sitios como para recomendarlos o reseñar su contenido, pero copié estas expresiones... como se suele decir por aquí... "por si aca" (también nosotros tenemos las nuestras, ja,ja!!).
"Al aprender un idioma es básico conocer las expresiones coloquiales, las frases hechas, me he encontrado una seleccion de 312 de las frases más utilizadas en Inglés. ¿Que os parecen?.
A pain in the neck - Insportable / muy pesado
Actually - De hecho
After you - Después de ti (cuando cedes la entrada a alguien)
Again and again - Una y otra vez
Ages ago - Hace siglos
And to top it all - ...y encima para rematar...
Apple doesn't fall far away from the tree - de tal palo tal astilla
Are you kidding me? - ¿Estás de coña?
As clear as a day - tan claro como el agua
As for me - Por mi parte
As if... - Más quisieras
As soon as possible/asap - Lo más rapido posible
Ass licker - Pelota/Lameculos
At last - Por fin
At least - Al menos
At the end of the day - Al fin y al cabo
Back in the day - Antiguamente/En aquella época
Be right back - Ahora vengo
Better devil you know than evil you don't - mejor malo conocido que bueno por conocer -- British
Better late than never - Mejor tarde que nunca
Between the devil and deep blue sea - entre la espada y la pared -- British
Bloody hell - Ostia puta! (sorprendido)
Bollocks - mentiras, estupideces o cojones(testiculos)
Bullshit - Mentira!
Mas en Calipodelima".

Who wants to live forever?
Hermosa canción y hermosa voz:
There´s no time for us.
There´s no place for us.
What is this thing that builds our dreams
Yet slips away from us?
Who wants to live here forever?
Who wants to live forever?
There´s no chance for us.
It´s all decided for us.
This world has only one sweet moment.
She aside for us.
Who wants to live forever?
Who wants to live forever?
Who dares to love forever?
Oh, when love must die?
But touch my tears with your lips.
Touch my world with your fingerstips.
And we can have forever.
And we can love forever.
Forever is our today.
Who waits forever anyway?
Who wants to live forever?
Who wants to live forever?
Forever is our today.
Queen.

Wake me up when you go.
Wake me up when you go
and let the rose in the bed
the orchids colour
when I see it
along the day
remenbered with care
the white light of your pupils
and the care you put
when you look me
with love.
(Nuestro primer poema en inglés. Bieeeenn!!. Digo nuestro porque fue escrito por mí y traducido el pasado 20/12/13 por otra amante de los idiomas: Sara Travé).
(Si quieres leerlo en español, puedes buscarlo en "mi blog de español", cuyo enlace directo encontrarás al final de esta misma página picando sobre "Aprehende español conmigo". Espero lo disfrutes. Besitos).
También consultamos a nuestra querida amiga y tocaya Ana -amén de profesora de la Escuela de Idiomas- otra posible traducción, más correcta y nos dio la que sigue. Que la disfruten:
Wake me up when you leave
and place a rose on my bed
of the orchid colour
so when I see it
during the day
I can remember with affection
the white light in your pupils
and the care you take
when you lovingly look at me.

Heal the world.
Spoken:
Think about the generations and to say we want
to make it a better world for our children and
our children´s children. So that they know
it´s a better world for them; and think if they
can make it a better
place.
There´s a place in your heart
And I know tath is love
And this place could be much
Brigther than tomorrow.
And if you really try
You´ll find there´s no need to cry
In this place you´ll feel
There´s no hurt or sorrow.
There are ways to get there
If you care enough for the living
Make a little space, make a better place.
Chorus:
Heal the world
Make it a better place
For you and for me and the entire human rice
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place for
You and for me.
If you want to know why
There´s a love that cannot lie.
Love is strong
It only cares for joyful giving.
If we try we shall see
In this bliss we cannot feel
Fear or dread
We stop existing and start living
Then it feels that always
Love´s enough for us growing
Make a better world, make a better world.
Chorus:
Heal the world
...
And the dream we were conceived in
Will reveal a joyful face
And the world we once believed in
Will shine again in grace
Then why do we keep strangling life
Wound this earth, crucify it´s soul
Though it´s plain to see, this world is heavenly
Be God´s glow.
We could fly so high
Let our spirits never die
In my heart I feel
You are all my brothers
Create a world with no fear
Together we´ll cry happy tears
See the nations turn
Their swords into plowshares
We could really get there
If you cared enough for the living
Make a little espace to make a better place.
Chorus:
Heal the world
...
Refrain:
There are people dying if you care enough for
the living
Make a better place for you and for me.
(x2)
You and for me / Make a better place.
(x3)
You and for me / Heal the world we live in
You and for me / Save it for our children
(x3)
Esta mañana, en la última clase de inglés antes de las vacaciones de Navidad, nuestro profesor nos ha agasajado, por las fiestas, con un picoteo y con esta canción de Michael Jackson: Heal The World, que hemos cantado todos juntos. Al enterarme de lo que dice, en mi idioma, me he sentido gratamente sorprendida y doblemente agasajada porque es preciosa, es un mensaje que casa perfectamente con el espíritu de las próximas festividades y con mi propia onda y, por supuesto, la de mi universo de blogs: es una puerta abierta a la esperanza*. Por ello, no he dejado pasar el día sin escribirla aquí para el que la quiera oír, cantar, disfrutar y, por qué no, aprender de ella. A ver si ya que también lo dice M. Jackon, el mensaje se escucha y se le hace caso.
Ah!! y Felices Fiestas!!
* Hablando de esperanza, te invito a que visites mi blog: lavozdelamadretierra.blogspot.com cuyo enlace, como el de los demás, puedes encontrar al final de esta misma página, por si quieres ayudar económicamente a la niña Anais (o/y de alguna manera que a ella le pudiera venir bien).
Al principio de "mi blog de la Tierra" puedes encontrar un enlace directo a su web. Gracias.
Puedes escuchar esta preciosa canción en Youtube. Hay muchas pero la que dice: "Heal the world lyrics", aparece con la letra en pantalla en inglés -y grandita, ji,ji!!, para no dejarse la vista- mientras suena. Disfrútenla!!

Return Again.
He aquí la letra de una de las canciones de la parte primera de ese maravilloso trabajo de Shaina Noll que suelo usar tanto en mi consulta como en mi vida privada desde hace muchos años y que se titula: Songs for the Inner Child.
Return again, return again,
return to the land of your soul.
Return again, return again,
return to the land of your soul.
Return to what you are, return to who you are,
return to where you are born and reborn again.
Return again, return again,
return to the land of your soul.
Return again, return again,
return to the land of you soul.
(Repeat)

Let it be.
When I find myself in times of trouble
Mother Mary comes to me
speaking words of wisdom, let it be
and in my hour of darkness
she is standing right in front of me
speaking words of wisdom, let it be
let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be,
whisper words of wisdom, let it be.
And whe the broken hearted people
living in the world agree
there will be an answer, let it be
for though they may be parted,
there is still a chace that they will see
there will be an answer, let it be,
let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be,
there will be an answer, let it be,
let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be,
whisper words of wisdom, let it be,
let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be.
And when the night is doudy there is still a ligth
that shines on me
shine until tomorrow, let it be.
I wake up to the sound of music
Mother Mary comforts me
whisper words of wisdom, let it be,
let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be,
there will be an answer, let it be,
let it be, let it be, let it be, yeah, let it be,
whisper words of wisdom, let it be.
The Beatles.

Stairway to heaven.
There's a lady who's sure
all that glitters is gold
and she's buying a stairway to heaven.
When she gets there
she knows if the stores are all closed
with a word she can get
what she came for
Oh, oh, and she's buying a stairway to heaven.
There's a sing on the wall
but she wants to be sure
cause you know sometimes words have two meanings.
In a tree by the brook
there's a songbird who sings
sometimes all of our thoughts are mis given.
Uh, it makes me wonder.
Uuuh, it makes me wonder.
There's a feeling I get when I look to the west
and my spirit is crying for leaving.
In my thoughts I have see rings of smoke
through the trees
and the voices of those who stand looking.
Uh, it makes me wonder.
Uuuuh, it really makes me wonder.
And it's whispered that soon
if we all call the tune
then the piper will lead us to reason.
And new day will dawn for those who stand long
and the forest will echo with laugther.
If there's a bristle in your hedgerow
don't be alarmed now,
it's just a spring clean for the May Queen.
Yes there are two paths you can go by
but in the long run,
there's still time to change the road your're on.
And it makes me wonder...
Your head is humming and
it wont go in case you don't know
the piper's calling you to join him.
Dear lady can't you hear the wind blow
and did you know
your stairway lies on the whispering wind.
And as we wind on down the road
our shadows taller than our soul
there walks the lady we all know
who shines white ligth and wants to know
how everything still turns to gold
and if you listen very hard
the tune will come to you at last
when all are one and one is all
To be a rock and not to roll.
And she's buying a stairway to heaven.
De Led Zeppelin.
Mother's blessing.
He aquí el comienzo de esa maravillosa canción, de esa maravillosa oración a la que tanto amo y a la que tanto agradezco, que lleva por título: "Mother's blessing".
Oh my child, this is your mother's blessing.
May you never forget God, even for a moment.
Whorshipping forever the Lord of the universe.
