(Flashback to 1934 and to a nightclub in Junin, EVA's

home town. EVA DUARTE is fifteen. The cabaret

is nearly over. MAGALDI is singing with great gusto.)



CHE

Now Eva Peron had every disadvantage you need if

You're going to succeed. No money, no class, no father,

No bright lights--there was nowhere she'd been at the age

Of fifteen, as this tango singer found out.

Agustin Magaldi--who has the distinction of being the

First man to be of use to Eva Duarte.



MAGALDI (The final song of his act)

On this night of a thousand stars

Let me take you to heaven's door

Where the music of love's guitars

Plays for evermore!



In the glow of those twinkling lights

We shall love through eternity

On this night in a million nights

Fly away with me!



I never dreamed that a kiss could be as sweet as this

--now I know that it can

I used to wander alone without a love of my own

I was a desperate man

But all my grief disappeared and all the sorrow I feared

Wasn't there anymore

On that magical day when you first came my way

Mi Amor!



On this night...

On this night...

On this night of a thousand stars

Let me take you to heaven's door

Where the music of love's guitars

Plays for evermore!
