This may be an unusual request and its a long-shot but I thought I would try here…  I’m trying to find the name of a Spanish-sang song or at least find some help in translating what the song lyrics are or type the words in proper spanish.  I heard this song when I was younger, between 1980 and 1990.  I will as best as I can type out what the song sounds like phonetically and I would like your help on how it should really be typed in spanish so I can somehow find this song.  The song has great sentimental value to me and I have tried for years to find it.  The song sounds like this:

Sha-rone dis aven, sha-rone dis aven, shaaaa-roooone, shaaaa-rooooone, tu tin po day mon, tu tin po day mon, sha-rone….sha-rone.

Does this sound familiar to anyone?  Does anyone know what this means or how to type those words out in Spanish correctly?  The singer sounds a lot like Julio Iglesias but it is not.  Please help.  Thanks.

I heard it between 1985 and 1990.  My dad had a tape of the artist so I’m not sure when the song was released originally.

I should also mention that the man was singing solo. It was sort of a ballad, it wasn’t a high-beat song. The song starts with music that sounds like a higher pitched stringed instrument playing a melody that sounded sort of metallic.  His voice sounds very similar to Julio Iglesias except a bit more louder and sort of opera-like.  I wish I had more info, but that is about all I have.

Doesn’t even have to be the exact song name.  If I could find out what those words are I could try and find the lyrics.  Its hard to find a song that you don’t know the name of, you don’t know the artist, and you can’t spell the lyrics but you know what it SOUNDS like.  If you sound out the words to the song that I typed, do any of them sound similar to any spanish words?  The word that is repeated the most in the Chorus is what sounds like “Sharone”...maybe its spelled “Charon” or “Charone’”, not sure.  I tried searching for every spelling of the word I could think of and came up empty.  Not sure if its someone’s name or an actual word.  If its a romance ballad, it could be a woman’s name.

I found the song.  Thanks for those who tried.  The song is as follows:

Shalom by Jos? Luis Rodriguez “El Puma”.

Shalom, jezabel, shalom ,jezabel
shalom, shalom, tu tiempo de amor,
mi tiempo de amor, lleg? shalom;

Does anyone know what this means?  Can someone translate?

Well, Shalom is Hebrew for peace.  Jezabel is something of a bitch from the Old Testament (she killed 450 priests in a one-er) and by association any really unpleasant, immoral woman.  Then we get “your time of love, my time of love, shalom (peace) arrived.”  Sounds like a complete load of old nonsense.  I prefer the mis-hearing in the original post!
