Subject: English Patient: Lullaby for Catherine From: GUEST,NPLibrarian Date: 13 Sep 02 - 01:56 PM A patron of ours is seeking an English translation of the Hungarian folksong En Csak azt Csodalom, aka "Lullaby for Catherine" used in the opening credits of *The English Patient. It is sung by Marta Sebasteyn. We've been all over the 'Net, and our own indexes and resources, with no luck. Can anybody here give us some help? Pat |

Subject: RE: English Patient: Lullaby for Catherine From: SharonA Date: 13 Sep 02 - 02:41 PM Could only find this page – http://www.robotwisdom.com/jorn/marta.html – which has a link to lyrics for the song (scroll down to the "The English Patient" and you'll see it). Unfortunately, the link isn't working for me; maybe it'll work for someone else. Doesn't say there whether the lyrics are in Hungarian or English, but at least it's a place to start. |

Subject: RE: English Patient: Lullaby for Catherine From: GUEST,NPLibrarian Date: 13 Sep 02 - 03:04 PM Thanks, Sorcha and SharonA. I did find that link, and it didn't work for me either! :-( At the moment, our catalog server is dead (Advanced death, they tell us) and I must wait to be able to locate our books of Hungarian folk songs.

Subject: RE: English Patient: Lullaby for Catherine From: GUEST Date: 21 May 10 - 02:08 AM These are the full lyrics of the song, but I think that only the first two verses are sung in "The English Patient". Én csak azt csodálom Meg nem hal bújába Ki az õ édesét Gyakran nem láthatja Lám énaz enyémet Csak máma nem láttam Mégis az én szivem Majd meghal bújában Bújába nem másért Csak a szerelemért Csak a szerelemért Szerelem kedviért Elvágtam az ujjam Holtig foly a vérem Messze van édesem Ki bekösse nékem Messze van édesem Ki bekösse nékem Messze van édesen Más ember kedvire Elvátgam az ujjam Holtig foly a vérem Messze van édesem Ki bekösse nékem Messze van édesen Más ember kedvire Messze van édesem Más néz a szemibe |
