    Hi Maviii!

    Well, Bocelli is Italian, but the songs you're asking about are in Spanish.

    Here's the first one (Besáme mucho):
    -----------------------
    Bésame, bésame mucho
    Kiss me, kiss me much
    Como si fuera esta noche
    like if tonight was
    La última vez
    the last time

    Bésame, bésame mucho
    Kiss me, kiss me much
    Que tengo miedo a perderte
    as I’m afraid of losing you
    Perderte después
    losing you afterwards

    Bésame, bésame mucho
    Kiss me, kiss me much
    Como si fuera esta noche
    like if tonight was
    La última vez
    the last time

    Bésame, bésame mucho
    Kiss me, kiss me much
    Que tengo miedo a perderte
    as I’m afraid of losing you
    Perderte después
    losing you afterwards

    Quiero tenerte muy cerca
    I want to have you very close to me,
    Mirarme en tus ojos
    to look at myself into your eyes
    Verte junto a mi
    to see you next to me
    Piensa que tal vez mañana
    think that tomorrow
    Yo ya estaré lejos
    I may be away
    Muy lejos de ti
    far away from you

    Bésame, bésame mucho
    Kiss me, kiss me much
    Como si fuera esta noche
    like if tonight was
    La última vez
    the last time

    Bésame, bésame mucho
    Kiss me, kiss me much
    Que tengo miedo a perderte
    as I’m afraid of losing you
    Perderte después
    losing you afterwards

    Bésame, bésame mucho
    Kiss me, kiss me much
    Que tengo miedo a perderte
    as I’m afraid of losing you
    Perderte después
    losing you afterwards

    Que tengo miedo a perderte
    As I’m afraid of losing you
    Perderte después
    losing you afterwards

    JURAME
    Swear to me

    Jurame, que aunque
    Swear to me that even
    pase mucho tiempo
    if much time passes by
    nunca olvidaré el momento
    I’ll never forget the moment
    en que yo te conocí
    when I met you

    Mirame, pues no hay
    Look at me, as there’s
    nada mas profundo,
    nothing deeper
    ni mas grande en éste mundo,
    nor bigger in this world
    que el cariño que te di
    than the love I gave you

    Besame, con un beso enamorado
    Kiss me, with a loving kiss
    como nadie me ha besado, desde el dia en que naci
    like no one has kissed me before, since the day I was born

    Quiereme, quiereme hasta la locura
    Love me, love me to the brink of madness
    asi sabras la amargura, que estoy sufriendo por ti
    that way you’ll know the bitterness I’m going through because of you

    Todos dicen que es mentira que te quiero
    Everyone says it’s a lie I love you
    porque nunca me habian visto enamorado
    because they had never seen me in love before
    yo te juro que yo mismo no comprendo
    I swear to you that not even I can understand
    el porque tu mirar me ha cautivado
    why your gaze has captivated me

    Cuando estoy cerca de ti estoy contento
    When I’m close to you I’m happy
    no quisiera que de nadie te acordaras
    I would like you to forget everyone else
    tengo celos hasta del pensamiento
    I’m jealous of a mere thought
    que pueda recordarte a otra persona amada
    that could remind you of another beloved person

    Jurame, que aunque
    Swear to me that even
    pase mucho tiempo
    if much time passes by
    nunca olvidaré el momento
    I’ll never forget the moment
    en que yo te conocí
    when I met you

    Well, "Romanza" is in Italian (that's why I left it to the end )...

    Here you are:
    -------------------

    Già la sento,
    I can hear her
    già la sento morire,
    I can hear her dying,
    però è calma sembra voglia
    but she’s calm, it seems as she wants to
    dormire;
    sleep;
    poi con gli occhi
    then she comes and searchs for me
    lei mi viene a cercare,
    with her eyes
    poi si toglie
    then she takes off
    anche l’ultimo velo,
    the last veil as well,
    anche l’ultimo cielo,
    the last heaven as well,
    anche l’ultimo bacio.
    the last kiss as well.

    Ah, forse colpa mia,
    Ah, maybe it’s my own fault
    ah, forse colpa tua,
    ah, maybe it’s your fault
    e così son rimasto a pensare.
    and like this I kept thinking.

    Ma la vita,
    but life...
    ma la vita cos’è
    but, what’s life?
    tutto o niente,
    all or nothing
    forse neanche un perchè.
    maybe not even a why.
    Con le mani
    She comes and searchs for me
    lei me viene a cercare,
    with her hands
    poi mi stringe,
    then she holds me tight,
    lentamente mi lascia,
    she lets go slowly,
    lentamente mi stringe,
    she holds me tight slowly
    lentamente mi cerca.
    she looks for me slowly.

    Ah, forse colpa mia,
    Ah, maybe it’s my own fault
    ah, forse colpa tua,
    ah, maybe it’s your fault
    e così sono rimasto a guardare.
    and like this I kept watching.

    E lo chiamano amore,
    and they call it love,
    e lo chiamano amore,
    and they call it love
    e lo chiamano amore
    and they call it love
    una spina nel cuore
    a thorn in the heart
    che non fa dolore.
    which doesn’t hurt
    È un deserto
    it’s a dessert
    questa gente
    this people
    con la sabbia
    with sand
    in fondo al cuore
    at the bottom of their hearts
    e tu,
    and you,
    che non mi senti più,
    you don’t hear me anymore,
    che non mi vedi più,
    you don’t see me anymore,
    avessi almeno il coraggio
    if at least I had the courage
    e la forza di dirti
    and the strength to tell you
    che sono con te.
    that I’m with you.
    (Ave Maria, ave Maria.)

    Ah, forse colpa mia,
    Ah, maybe it’s my own fault
    ah, forse colpa mia,
    ah, maybe it’s my own fault
    e così son rimasto così
    and like this I stayed just like this
    son rimasto così.
    I stayed just like this.

    Già la sento
    I can hear her
    che non può più sentire;
    she can’t hear anymore;
    in silenzio
    in silence
    se n’è andata a dormire,
    she went to sleep
    è già andata a dormire.
    she already went to sleep.

    Nothing to thank at all! It was a pleasure to help you a bit and I'm glad you liked the translations...

    I'm still trying to figure out other singers in the style of Andrea Bocelli that you may like. For now I can only think of Alessandro Safina, but I'm not exactly an expert on Italian music

    Ma3a salama, Citlalli

    Mmmmhhh... that's a very difficult question. You know, the 3 songs in Spanish sung by Andrea Bocelli were composed by Mexicans, so I've been listening to them from time immemorial and I quite like hearing them when I'm in a romantic or nostalgic sort of mood. If you're interested in knowing more songs by the same composers their names are Consuelo Velazquez, Armando Manzanero and Maria Grever (many different singers have recorded their songs).

    Those songs sung by Bocelli also remind me a lot of an earlier CD recorded by Plácido Domingo, where he also sings popular and very traditional Latin American tunes. The CD is called “From my Latin Soul”, and a few years ago he made yet another CD in the same style, it’s called “Quiereme mucho”. I reckon you may like them...

    I also like pop, rock, grounge, salsa, classical, cumbia, merengue, etc. And in the last few months I have developed a very strong feeling and like of Arabic music. So, adding all the different music genres in existence, my favorite songs are far toooooo many I'm afraid!

    so what do u hear from arabic songs coz there is alot
    i just wanna know which singers do u know ...
    the difference between the arabic songs & other is in the deep meanings of arabic language & the accent betwwen the arabic countrys .... although the greatest meanings in the gulf ( saudi...kwait..etc) but not all people can listen to them u know they have their own style ... so most poeple listen to egyption & libanon songs
    am glade that i can understand arabic songs in thier different accents ...
    but now am trying to learn turkish & italian

    Well, I reckon I belong to the mainstream. My 3 favorite Arab singers are Assi El Helani, Ragheb Alama and Amr Diab (I prefer much more male voices). I also quite like some music by Nancy Ajram, Najwa Karam, Latifah, Samira Said, Elissa, Fares Karam, Tamer Hosny and Ramy Ayash. And I like a few songs by the likes of Fadl Shaker, Cheb Khaled, Cheb Mami and Shereen.

    From the Khaliji performers I like a couple of songs by Hussein Al Jasmin, Kathem El Saher, Nabil Shouail and Majed El Mohandes. (Does the fact that they were born in the Gulf countries make them automatically "Khaliji" style singers?)

    Of course I also know the super classic performers like Oum Kolthoum, Fairuz and Abdel Halim Hafez.

    I know a few other Arab artists whose music I don't like much at all. But I'm not telling their names

    And I'm sure there's still loads and loads to discover!

    Well, I'm not a native speaker of Italian, but if I can help you somehow in your quest please let me know.

    Ciao

    i dont prefer some one exactly but it depeneds on my mood

    but u know what?
    maybe it`s easy to tell what is the favourite songs more than telling u my best singer coz sometimes they are good song for not popular singer...

    for now i can add for the good list u post

    -Goerge wassouf
    -melhem zain
    -melhem barakat
    -azar habib is old lebanon singer
    -wael koufori `s old songs
    -Julia Boutros
    ..... etc)
    if u like i`ll post songs name
    but if u r looking for deep meanings mohammad abdo is the best
    but he has his own style not all people can listen to him

    Buona sera Maviii!

    No, I'm not Arabic. I'm Mexican. And so far I have never lived in an Arabic speaking country, but maybe I will one day

    I've bought a couple of mp3 cds of Arab music on ebay. And I also came across some of those singers by watching youtube. As I started liking the music I kept looking for more and more... and I just can't have enough of it! I love it so much that I have started trying to learn the Arabic language (sort of crazy, I know )

    Did you like Alessandro Safina's music?

    Ma3a salama!
