- "Del cabello más sutil" ("Out of your soft hair")
Out of your wonderfully soft hair, I would weave a casca for you to snuggle with and have by your side.
I would like to be a little glass in your house so that I could kiss you every time you drink from it.
"Con amores, la mi madre" ("With love, my mother")
With love, my mother, I fell asleep. As I slept, I dreamt of what my heart was hiding - that this love comforted me more than I deserved. That love took away my pain and gave me faith.
"Coplas de Curro Dulce" ("Poems of Curro Dulce")
Small Bride,
Small Groom,
Small Living Room,
Small Bedroom.
This is why I want a small bed with a small net over it (a canopy).
"El vito"
An old woman is worth one real (a silver coin), and a young girl is worth two coppers, but since I am poor, I choose the cheapest. what it is about your black eyes that gives me the creeps, but at the same time I like them a lot. They are so playful and restless, their gaze is sudden, they are deeply penetrating. People say that God created them to show what goodness, glory and heaven are. But on the other hand, they are so deceptive! They tell us about things that don't really exist. Some say that God created them to show what suffering is. And there is in your eyes what there is in heaven. The nights are very dark, the days are very clear.
Miguel Sandoval - "Adiós mi tierra" ("Goodbye my land")
My dear homeland, hear my song, hear my complaint.
-"Adiós mi tierra" (Goodbye, my land)
Love, my homeland, listen to my song, hear my complaint. Far away I shall go and never return. Land of love and hope, I
say goodbye to you!
I will go away to wander the wide world, seeking peace and the oblivion of my love, without hope that one day I will come back and it will never hurt again.

Francisco Asenjo Barbieri- "Canción de Paloma" ("Song of Dove") from the zarzuela "El barberillo de Lavapiés" ("The Barber of Lavapiés")
When I was born in the street, I was given the name of "Dove" as if it was a joke. As I go from street to street,
I am still called
Dove
even today, even though I have no coloured neck, even though my hair is always
clean and curled, and even though my poor body has no feathers - it is always clean and white as sea foam!
When my window opens to the sky and the pigeons fly above, when I see the dawn breaking, I want to fly like them.
I am like a cooing pigeon, always singing as I go, and always staying true to my name Dove.
"You shall have a husband, a dark man," said the full moon from heaven. - But in return, I will get the first child you have with him. For she who sacrifices her child so that she may not be alone will not truly love him."
At night, when the full moon shines, the child is happy. And if he cries, the moon rises, makes a cradle for the baby and surrounds him.
Agustin Lara - "Granada"
Granada is the land of the dream! My song is for you!
Granada - the land splashed with the blood of bullfights! Women who know how to charm with their black eyes! Dream - a rebellious gypsy woman, covered in flowers. I kiss your red lips - a juicy apple - which speak to me of love.
You are a land full of beautiful women, blood and sun!
Two professional performers, singer AISTĖ PILIBAVIČIŪTĖ and pianist NIJOLĖ BARANAUSKAITE, have come together to create a fiery Spanish music fiesta. This evening will be a fusion of enchanting Spanish songs of extraordinary beauty, tender melodies of love and sultry rhythms pulsating with passion. The concert "De España vengo. I come from Spain", hear the most beautiful songs written by the most beloved Spanish composers. This is music that moves and leaves no one indifferent!
Each song in the programme is not only a virtuoso melody and a lively rhythm, but also a story to tell. First of all, Pablo Luna's song "De España vengo" ("I am from Spain"), which inspired the title of the concert, will convince the soloist that her whole soul and body are from Spain. Three songs from Enrique Granada's Canciones amatorias (Love Songs) cycle will reveal what makes passionate love stories so dramatic. Jealousy, tears and sacrifice for love. Other works will celebrate the black passionate eyes of the South, which can love and deceive, as well as the search for true love and the composers' feelings for their homeland, Spain.
Spanish music has a magic that can warm even the coldest blood. Although both performers are Lithuanian, their artistry will convince you that they have just arrived from sunny Spain.
