What a Wonderful World
私の大好きなStandard Number。
素敵なメロディと素敵な歌詞。これはもう文句なくLouis Armstrongですね。彼はこの美しい曲を慰問で訪ねたベトナム戦争で戦う米兵の前で歌います。彼の複雑な心境は伺い知れませんが、私は死にゆく兵士たちへの精いっぱいの慰問と政府への精いっぱいの抵抗ではなかったかと想像します。ぜひ聞いてみてください。
I see trees of green, red roses too
I see them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world
I see skies of blue and clouds of white
The bright blessed day, the dark sacred night
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world
The colours of the rainbow, so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of people going by
I see friends shakin' hands, sayin' "How do you do?"
They're really saying "I love you"
I hear babies cryin', I watch them grow
They'll learn much more than I'll ever know
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world
Yes, I think to myself, what a wonderful world
