言わずと知れた2016年のノーベル文学賞受賞者。シンガーソングライター。ボブ・ディランの詩心の一つが反戦です。名曲「風に吹かれて」は1963年。時はベトナム戦争へのアメリカ介入前夜。米国内では人種差別反対闘争と権力の弾圧が荒れ狂う。Blown' in the wind「風に吹かれて」では戦争反対のメッセージが聞き取れます。
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, and 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
Yes, and how many years can a mountain exist
Before it's washed to the sea?
Yes, and how many years can some people exist
Before they're allowed to be free?
Yes, and 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, and how many times must a man look up
Before he can see the sky?
Yes, and how many ears must one man have
Before he can hear people cry?
Yes, and 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
