For this week's jukebox music theme of Birds, here's a romantic Spanish classic, "La Paloma", (The Dove). Written in 1860 by Spanish Basque composer Sebastián Iradier (previously Yradier) around 1860, and has been popular around the world ever since. Here it is sung by the fabulous voice of Mexican chanteuse Eugenia León. "Si a tu ventana llega Una Paloma, Tratala con cariño, Que es mi persona. Cuentale tus amores, Bien de mi vida, Coronala de flores, Que es cosa mia." English: "If a dove comes to your window, treat it with loving, since it's myself. Tell it about your love, you dear of my life, crown it with my favourite flowers." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h9PwYEOWBsE #JukeboxFridayNight #Birds
