C’è questa marmocchia paffutella che riceve in dono dalle adorate zie un carillon con una melodia dolcissima. Per anni il carillon suona facendo compagnia alla piccola e diventa un po’ la colonna sonora dei suoi giochi e della sua vita.
Dopo tanti anni quella bambina è diventata grande e a sua volta mamma di una piccola marmocchia. La melodia l’aveva quasi scordata, finché in un cd di nursery rhymes la ritrova. La riconosce. Si emoziona e per giorni non smette di canticchiarla.
E ancora oggi trovo che You’re my sunshine sia una delle più belle canzoni d’amore, oltre che una ninna nanna formidabile! E amorevolmente vorrei condividerla con voi.
The other night dear, as I lay sleeping
I dreamed I held you in my arms
But when I awoke, dear, I was mistaken
So I hung my head and I cried.
You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are gray
You’ll never know dear, how much I love you
Please don’t take my sunshine away
I’ll always love you and make you happy,
If you will only say the same.
But if you leave me and love another,
You’ll regret it all some day:
You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are gray
You’ll never know dear, how much I love you
Please don’t take my sunshine away
You told me once, dear, you really loved me
And no one else could come between.
But not you’ve left me and love another;
You have shattered all of my dreams:
You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are gray
You’ll never know dear, how much I love you
Please don’t take my sunshine away
In all my dreams, dear, you seem to leave me
When I awake my poor heart pains.
So when you come back and make me happy
I’ll forgive you dear, I’ll take all the blame.
You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are gray
You’ll never know dear, how much I love you
Please don’t take my sunshine away
