Lily Marlene
Lily Marlene was a popular song among all parties in the conflict during the Second World War. The original was German. There are English, Spanish, Italian and Russian versions. It is a beautiful and catchy melody. Click on each of the following web-sites to hear different versions. I hope you enjoy listening to them. This was popular during our Medical Student days in the early 1960s.
