about

An original Ladino song inspired by the amazing 15th century Sephardic heroine, Dona Gracia Mendes. This is the title track off my new album, Gracia. A song about the amazing work women do in the world, with a spoken-word cameo by Gloria Steinem.

lyrics

LADINO:
Tu mos das gracia
Tu mos das vida
Tu mos das esperanza

Tu mos das bravura
Tu mos das fuersa
Tu mos das feuzia

Tu mos das dicha
Tu mos das boz
Tu mos das enspirasyon

Tu mos das estima
Tu mos das valor
Tu mos das admirasion


Koro:
Por que ti tenemos
Onor, pleto, effeto;
Por que ti soportamos
Con poder, altas, respekto

Unos tienen las echas, otras la fama—
Las tienes enjuntas.


ENGLISH:
You give us grace
You give us life
You give us promise

You give us bravery
You give us strength
You give us defiance

You give us command
You give us voice
You give us inspiration

You give us esteem
You give us value
You give us admiration


Chorus:
Because of you we have the
Honor, fight, effect;
Because of you we stand with
Power, height, respect

Some have the deeds, some have the fame--
You have both and the same.
