森山良子 ドナ・ドナ 歌詞

歌：森山良子

作詞：A. Kevess・T. Schwartz・S. Secunda・A. Zeitlin

作曲：S. Secunda

On a wagon bound for market
There's a calf 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

Dona dona dona dona
Dona dona dona don
Dona dona dona dona
Dona dona dona don

“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

Dona dona dona dona
Dona dona dona don
Dona dona dona dona
Dona dona dona don

Calves are easily bound and slaughtered
Never knowing the reason why
But whoever treasures freedom
Like the swallow has learned to fly
