La respuesta, mi amigo, está flotando en el viento. (Blowin' In The Wind Lanzamiento 27 de mayo de 1963 Bob Dilan )






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?
how many times must the cannon balls fly
Before they're forever banned?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

How many years can a mountain exist
Before it's 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,
Pretending 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?
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 blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

Flotando en el viento


¿Cuántas carreteras debe un hombre caminar,
antes de que le llamen hombre?
¿Cuántos mares debe una paloma navegar,
antes de que se duerma en la arena?
¿Cuánto tiempo deben las bolas de cañon volar,
antes de estar prohibidas para siempre?

La respuesta, amigo mio, está flotando en el viento
la respuesta está flotando en el viento.

¿Cuántos años debe una montaña existir,
antes de que sea bañada por el mar?
¿Cuántos años pueden algunas personas existir,
antes de que sean libres?
¿Cuántas veces puede un hombre girar su cabeza,
y pretender no haber visto nada?

La respuesta, amigo mio, está flotando en el viento
la respuesta está flotando en el viento.

¿Cuántas veces debe un hombre mejorar,
antes de que pueda ver el cielo?
¿Cuántos oídos debe un hombre tener,
antes de que pueda escuchar a la gente llorar?
¿Cuántas muertes le tomará hasta que sepa
que demasiada gente ha muerto?

La respuesta, amigo mio, está flotando en el viento
la respuesta está flotando en el viento.
