经典歌曲-多娜多娜Donna Donna-JOAN BAEZ

歌手：Joan Baez and Chad Mitchell

On a wagon¹ bound for market

There's a calf² with a mournful eye

High above him there's a swallow

Winging swiftly through the sky

How the winds are laughing

They laugh with all their might

Laugh and laugh the whole day through

And half the summer's night

Donna Donna...

Stop complaining ,said the farmer

Who told you a calf to be

Why don't you have wings to fly with

Like the swallow so proud and free?

How the winds are laughing

They laugh with all their might

Laugh and laugh the whole day through

And half the summer's night

Donna Donna...

Calves³ are easily bound and slaughtered⁴

Never knowing the reason why

But whoever treasures freedom

Like the swallow has learned to fly

How the winds are laughing

They laugh with all their might

Laugh and laugh the whole day through

And half the summer's night

Donna Donna...
