 Blowing in the Wind

 

How many roads must a man walk down before they call him a man?
How many seas must a white dove sail before she sleeps in the sand?
사람은 얼마나 많은 길을 걸어 봐야
진정한 인생을 깨닫게 될까요
흰 비둘기는 얼마나 많은 바다 위를 날아 봐야
백사장에 편안히 잠들 수 있을까요.

How many times must the canon balls fly before they're forever banned?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

전쟁의 포화가 얼마나 많이 휩쓸고 나서야
세상에 영원한 평화가 찾아올까요
친구여, 그건 바람만이 알고 있어요
그건 바람만이 대답할 수 있답니다.

=======Peter Paul and Mary Blowing in the Wind 1965 HD 16:9 ==========

================================================================

How many years must a mountain exist before it is washed to the sea?
How many years can some people exist before they're allowed to be free?

얼마나 많은 세월이 흘러야
높은 산이 씻겨 내려 바다로 흘러갈까요
얼마나 많은 세월이 흘러야
사람들은 진정한 자유를 얻을 수 있을까요.

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.

언제까지 고개를 돌려
모르는 척할 수 있을까요
친구여, 그건 바람만이 알고 있어요
그건 바람만이 대답할 수 있답니다.


How many times must a man look up before he can see the sky?
How many ears must one man have before he can hear people cry?
얼마나 많이 올려다보아야
진짜 하늘을 볼 수 있을까요
얼마나 오랜 세월을 살아야
다른 사람의 울음소리를 들을 수 있을까요.

 

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.

얼마나 많은 사람이 희생되어야
무고한 사람들이 너무 많이 죽었음을 깨달을까요
친구여, 그건 바람만이 알고 있어요
그건 바람만이 대답할 수 있답니다

The most commercially successful version of "Blowin' in the Wind" was recorded by folk music trio Peter, Paul and Mary, who released the song in June 1963, three weeks after The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan was issued. The trio's version, which was used as the title track of their third album, peaked at #2 on the Billboard charts. The group's version also went to number one on the Middle-Road charts for five weeks.

 

Peter, Paul and Mary는 1961년 뉴욕 그리니치 빌리지에 결성된 포크 음악 그룹이다.

  이들은 1970년 그룹이 해체되기 전까지 수많은 포크 음악의 명곡을 양산해내었다.

  9년 동안 각자 활동하다가 1979년에 다시 모인 이들은 이후로 2009년 9월 17일,

  메리 트래버스가 72세에 백혈병으로 사망할 때까지 함께 공연하였다.

  1960년대 팝 음악사를 통틀어 가장 대중적인 인기를 누린 그룹 중의 하나로 평가받고있다.

  그룹명은 구성원들의 인명, 즉 피터 얘로(Peter Yarrow), 노엘 폴 스투키(Noel Paul 

  Stookey) 그리고 메리 트래버스(Mary Travers)에서 따온 것이다.

  그들의 곡 중 "If I Had a Hammer", "Puff, the Magic Dragon",  "Leavin' on a Jet

  Plane"은 존 덴버가, 그리고 "Blowin' in the Wind"는 밥 딜런이 작곡하였다.

  이 음악 그룹은 밥 딜런의 음악 경력 초기에 다른 음악들의 녹음을 맡아 주었다. 

Peter, Paul and Mary was a folk singing group brought together by manager Albert Grossman, who was looking to form a "folk-pop supergroup" made up of a tall blonde gal, a good-looking guy, and a jokester.

Their first gig was in 1961 at New York's Bitter End coffeehouse, which was very well-received. Within a year, Peter, Paul and Mary had released their debut (self-titled) album, featuring Pete Seeger tunes like "If I Had a Hammer" and "Where Have All the Flowers Gone?"

By 1963, the group had made three records, including one of their biggest hits, "Puff the Magic Dragon." They performed at the 1963 March on Washington (where Martin Luther King, Jr., made his famous I Have a Dream speech. Their recording of Bob Dylan's "Blowin In the Wind" was the fastest selling record ever released by Warner Brothers Records, landing the trio at the forefront of the civil rights and peace movement.

By 1970, however, the group had broken up so that the members could pursue their own solo careers. They have reunited several times since then for select concert dates.

Mary Travers was diagnosed with Leukemia in 2005, and received a bone marrow transplant in the autumn of the same year. Peter, Paul and Mary continued their reunion tour in late 2005, and continue to tour now.

============================

Mary Travers, a striking figure of power and glamour in the early-1960s folk music movement, died Wednesday at Danbury Hospital in Connecticut after suffering from leukemia for several years. She was 72.
She was best known as the blond with the bangs who commanded the middle microphone with Peter, Paul and Mary, a trio that brought folk music from coffeehouses to top-40 radio.
They also gave much of America its first taste of the young Bob Dylan by helping to turn his "Blowin' in the Wind" into a national anthem.
The group reunited several years ago to begin touring, and Travers performed with them until a few months ago, even when she needed assistance on stage.
