Habanera

I know I am sucker for classics, and this is one of my all-time favourite duets. To be honest I had never really known what the discourse was in the performance (my limited French starts with Bon jour and ends with parlez vous anglais)..Anyway I got to see the lyrics (thank God for Wikipedia) and the thing hits home rather painfully. The Habanera has just been playing in my head the entire afternoon.

si tu ne m'aimes pas, je t'aime
si je t'aime, prends garde à toi! (Prends garde à toi!)
Si tu ne m’aimes pas,
Si tu ne m’aimes pas, je t’aime! (Prends garde à toi!)
Mais, si je t’aime,
Si je t’aime, prends garde à toi!

This rather sums up what experiences...In Anglais this would translate to:

f you love me not, then I love you;
if I love you, you'd best beware! (You'd best beware!)
if you love me not,
if you love me not, then I love you (You'd best beware!)
but if I love you,
if I love you, you'd best beware!

Heh heh heh..This sounds rather forceful, but I am usually a rather diffident and occasionally displaying lassitude in my nature. I believe it is a polite way of telling me niko downest (true by the way) I think if I combine this with my hommy Bangz , I am told madam ataingia box.


But ignoring the lyrics, habanera is a beautiful song. After evaluating my recent threats from various corners, and like they say we men are too proud to ask for directions..lemme get lost a bit then maybe I will be pointed to the right direction in the end or change course altogether. I have been given deadlines on how long I should be seen masquerading as a single bloke, but I am used to the pressure...if i handled the maize guys, ....Anyway the story continues....
