Blowing in the Wind
-Bob Dylan
很有意義的話語,曾在經典之作《阿甘正傳》中出現過。 雖然「Blowing in the Wind」的時代背景是越戰時期的美國社會,但是這首歌的意境卻可以說是「放諸四海而皆準」,同時始終深受世界各地人們的喜愛。當東歐與中東各地戰火頻傳、當國人為政府與某些民間企業的不當措施采取激烈抗爭手段的時候,總是令人不禁又想起這首歌曲。解決爭端的方法其實顯而易見,就像是飛揚在風中一樣,只是有幾人肯去傾聽呢?
How many roads must a man walk down
Before they call him a man
How many seas must a white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand
How many times must the cannon balls fly
Before they’re forever banned
The answer, my friend, is blowing in the wind
The answer is blowing in the wind
How many years can a mountain exist
Before it is washed to the sea
How many years can some people exist
Before they’re allowed to be free
How many times can a man turn his head
And pretend that he just doesn’t see
The answer, my friend, is blowing in the wind
The answer is blowing in the wind
How many times must a man look up
Before he can see the sky
How many ears must one man have
Before he can hear people cry
How many deaths will it take
’Till he knows that too many people have died
The answer, my friend, is blowing in the wind
The answer is blowing in the wind
答案在風中飄蕩
一個男人要走過多少路
才能被稱為男人
一只白鴿要飛過多少海洋
才能在沙灘上安睡
加農炮還得飛行多少次
才會被永遠禁止
答案啊!朋友,就飄在風里
答案就飄在茫茫的風里
一座山能存在多久
在它被沖刷入海之前
人們能夠存活多少年
在他們獲得自由以前
一個人可以轉過頭去幾次
假裝什么都沒看見
答案啊!朋友,就飄在風里
答案就飄在茫茫的風里
一個人得仰望幾次
才能看見藍天
一個人得有多少耳朵
才能聽見人們的哭泣
還得多少人死亡
他才能明白已有太多人死去
答案啊!朋友,就飄在風里
答案就飄在茫茫的風里
