Musicas de Sempre - Bob Dylan "Blowin’ in the Wind"

"Blowin’ in the Wind"

Aos 21 anos, Bob Dylan compos a musica “Blowin’ in the Wind”, estavamos em 1962... tempos de crise, guerras, de discriminacao racial e religiosa, de conflitos sociais, violencia, odio...
A letra levanta algumas questoes filosoficas sobre a paz, a guerra, a compaixao, a liberdade.
E e a forma esperancosa com que sao tratados estes temas que permite conservar a sua mensagem mais de 40 anos depois...



Bob Dylan "Blowin’ in the Wind"

How many roads must a man walk down
Before you call him a man?
How many seas must a white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand?
Yes, 'n' how many times must the cannonballs fly
Before they're forever banned?


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


Yes, 'n' How many years can a mountain exist
Before it's washed to the sea?
Yes, 'n' how many years can some people exist
Before they're allowed to be free?
Yes, 'n' how many times can 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.


Yes, 'n' how many times must a man look up
Before he can see the sky?
Yes, 'n' how many ears must one man have
Before he can hear people cry?
Yes, 'n' 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...
