Blowin' in the wind

 




¿Cuántas veces puede un hombre girar la cabeza, y fingir que simplemente no ve?

Canción obligada, escrita por Bob Dylan de 1962


Letra

How many roads must a man walk down

Before you can call him a man?

Yes, and how many seas must a white dove sail

Before she sleeps in the sand?

Yes, and how many times must cannonballs fly

Before they're forever banned?


The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind

The answer is blowin' in the wind


Yes, and how many years can a mountain exist

Before it is washed to the sea?

Yes, and how many years can some people exist

Before they're allowed to be free?

Yes, and how many times must a man turn his head

And pretend that he just doesn't see?


The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind

The answer is blowin' in the wind


How many times must a man look up

Before he can see the sky?

Yes, and how many ears must one man have

Before he can hear people cry?

Yes, and how many deaths will it take till he knows

That too many people have died?


The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind

The answer is blowin' in the wind

With God on our side

  Canción de Bob Dylan de 1963. Canción del egocentrismo y del dios a nuestra medida. "Jesús fue traicionado por un beso, pero no puedo pensar por ti Usted tendrá que decidir, si Judas Iscariote tenía a Dios de su lado (...) Si Dios está de nuestro lado, detendrá la próxima guerra". Letra Oh my name it ain't nothin' My age it means less The country I come from Is called the Midwest I was taught and brought up there The laws to abide And that land that I live in Has God on its side Oh, the history books tell it They tell it so well The cavalries charged The Indians fell The cavalries charged The Indians died Oh, the country was young With God on its side The Spanish-American War had its day And the Civil War, too Was soon laid away And the names of the heroes I was made to memorize With guns in their hands And God on their side The First World War, boys It came and it went The reason for fighting I never did get But I learned to accept it Accept it with pride For you d
