[Esp/Eng sub] Hive Open Mic #202| Cover: Mercedes
Primero que nada la educación por delante: Buenos días, buenas tardes o buenas noches.
Esta semana me tocó a mi elegir la temática y la verdad me dieron ganas de cantar muchas canciones con buenas historias, y entre tanto pensar elegí una de un cantautor que aunque ya falleció dejo un legado enorme musicalmente hablando, el gran maestro Simón Díaz, a quienes muchos venezolanos de cariño le llamábamos Tío Simón.
Su canción más famosa y traducida en más de 100 idiomas es Caballo viejo, pero la canción que les cantaré se llama Mercedes, trata la historia de un hombre que a escondidas miraba a la mujer de un amigo que se estaba bañando en un río, pero había un peligroso animal que tenía hambre y bueno, escuchen la canción para que sepan lo que pasó.
Espero sea de su agrado.

First of all, politeness first: Good morning, good afternoon or good evening.
This week it was my turn to choose the theme and the truth is that I felt like singing many songs with good stories, and in the meantime I chose one of a singer-songwriter who, although he passed away, left a huge legacy musically speaking, the great master Simón Díaz, whom many Venezuelans affectionately called Tío Simón.
His most famous song and translated into more than 100 languages is Caballo viejo, but the song I will sing is called Mercedes, it is the story of a man who secretly looked at the wife of a friend who was bathing in a river, but there was a dangerous animal that was hungry and well, listen to the song so you know what happened.
I hope like you.

Lyric
Mercedes is bathing on the banks of a river.
My eyes are looking at her, but she belongs to a friend of mine.
I wouldn't want to look at her but it's not my fault
She looks like an emerald with chupa chupa flowers to me
It's very difficult for me to tell my friend about it
I don't want to look at it but it's not my fault
I look like an emerald with lollipop flowers
It's very difficult for me to tell my friend, it's very difficult for me
There's a fat alligator over there that's more than a block long
With more cheeks than a deer and more teeth than 20 babas
She, innocent of everything, bathes without noticing
That when she gets to the bend the caiman may come closer
And me alone in the ravine, and Mercedes without noticing
She, innocent of everything, bathes without noticing
That when she gets to the bend the alligator may come closer
And I'm alone in the ravine, and Mercedes without noticing
I'm running to her house so my friend will know
I'll tell her what's going on and I'll tell her what's going on
That there's an immense danger that his wife is running there
That a friend tells him that we've got to do something about it
That he should go quickly to save her, and as a bonus I'll go with him.
That there's an immense danger that his wife runs there
That a friend of mine tells him that we have to do something
That he should go soon to save her, and as a bonus I'll go with him.
When we arrived at the well, the woman was nowhere to be seen
The alligator, upside down, was sleeping very well.
I gave him my condolences on the spot and hugging him, I told him
That happens all the time, that it's fate's thing
And that from now on he can count on a friend
I gave him my condolences on the spot and hugging him I tell him
That it happens all the time, that it's fate's way of life
And that from now on, he can count on a friend.

Bravo brother!. Mercedes, great story and one of my favorites. I love that tumbao del llano you brought, that was a great touch. Thank you very much for being part of the Hive Open Mic Family and for this story theme. We have had similar weeks in the past and they were very successful, thanks to you we have repeated the feat. Happy day my dear!...
Buenas tardes bro, me hubiese gustado tocarla con el cuatro pero no tengo ahorita, el que estaba usando era prestado, aunque me agrada que hayas apreciado el tumbao llanero que pude sacar en la guitarra, que tengas una excelente tarde hermanazo.
Está canción sin duda cuenta una historia y con una gran letra como siempre nos tenía acostumbrado nuestro Gran Simon Díaz, buena interpretación amigo @henzure. Felicidades por ser el artista destacado.🤗👍🎤❤️💛💙💕

Me encanta esta canción, es sin duda un tema perfecto para esta semana.
Thank you for sharing.
It seems like a poignant and complex portrayal of a situation involving temptation, friendship, and perhaps even danger. The imagery is vivid and evocative.
Totally true my friend, thanks for taking the time to see it published, greetings.
You share a beautiful story.
