Donna Donna,又名Dona Dona,是一首深受犹太民族喜爱的歌曲,在犹太人群中流传甚广。演唱者Joan Baez(琼 贝兹)是美国六十年代以来著名的抗议民谣歌手、歌曲作家与社会活动家, 是美国民歌复兴运动的重要成员之一,一生极富传奇色彩。Baez的歌喉被公认为是一个奇迹。未经正规训练,朴实无华,声音高低错落有致,不时以激情传神。 音质柔和,令人过耳不忘。她的演唱绝妙惊人,吐字十分清晰,让那些受过高等正规培训的音乐学院的歌手们羡慕不已。
Donna Donna歌词:
On a wagon bound for market
There's a calf with a mournful eye
High above him there' 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 Donna Donna
Donna Donna Donna Do
Donna Donna Donna Donna
Donna Donna Donna Do
Stop complaning said the farmer
Who told you a calf to be
Why don't you have winging to fly with
Like the swallow so proud and free
How the winds are laughing
They laugh with all there might
Laugh and laugh
The whole day through
And half the summer's night
Donna Donna Donna Donna
Donna Donna Donna Do
Donna Donna Donna Donna
Donna Donna Donna Do
Calves are easily bound
And slaughtered
Never knowing the reason why
But whoever treasures freedom
Like a swallow has learned to fly
How the winds are laughing
They laugh with all there might
Laugh and laugh
The whole day through
And half the summer's night
Donna Donna Donna Donna
Donna Donna Donna Do
Donna Donna Donna Donna
Donna Donna Donna Do
