Origins: You'll Sing to Me Too (Pete Seeger)

Subject: Lyr Add: YOU'LL SING TO ME TOO (Pete Seeger)
From: Barbara

A friend just sent me this song. He sings it but doesn't know where it comes from or who wrote it or if it has been recorded. Can anyone help?
He HAS the chords, what he wants is some information about its background.
Blessings,
Barbara


YOU'LL SING TO ME TOO

We don't know, where we go, but we're here, and we're near,
And so I'll sing to you, and someday you'll sing to me too.
I will sing to you, I will sing to you, I will sing to you,
And someday, you'll sing to me too.

I don't know, where I'll go, but I'm here, and I'm near,
And so I'll sing to you, and someday, you'll sing to me too
YOU'LL sing to me too, YOU'LL sing to me too, I will sing to you,
And someday, you'll sing to me too.

Yo no se, donde e, stoy aqui, junto a ti (e stoy = estoy)
Canto para ti yun dia, cantas tu para mi (yun = y un)
Canta para mi, canta para mi, canto para ti
Yun dia canta tu para mi (yun = y un)

I will sing TO you, I will sing TO you, I will sing TO you,
And someday, you'll sing TO me too.

(One more time – slowly WITH instead of TO)

I will sing WITH you, I will sing WITH you, I will sing WITH you,
And someday, you'll sing WITH me too.

Barbara,

    Yes, this song was written by Pete Seeger for his grandson, Tao. It can be found on the album, "The Songs of Pete Seeger", Volume 2. The name of the song is "You'll Sing to Me Too". On this album it is sung by a brother and sister duo from Nicaragua, Salvador Cardenal and Katia Cardenal, who were also known as the Duo Guadabarranco in the 1990's. They were also the ones who translated this song into Spanish.

    'Wonderful song, isn't it? I've been practicing it all weekend to share it with the children in our little Montessori school. Thank you for the lyrics. They're not on the CD jacket.

                        Sincerely,

                        Linda

It seems this song has been removed from YouTube and other places I've looked. Unless the person who had the chords posts them, it doesn't seem likely they'll show up.

For very little money you can buy it as a download. Perhaps someone can give you a start from the sample available here: http://www.amazon.com/Youll-Sing-To-Me-Too/dp/B0010WI5ZO
