...and the dreams that you dare to dream really do come true...

...acho que sim, que quando sonhamos e lutamos pelos sonhos eles se concretizam... mesmo que não seja exactamente como sonhámos, mas acabam por se concretizar da forma mais acertada... e este filme fabuloso do Feiticeiro de Oz fez 71 anos...

...it's far, far away...

...there must be a place like this... somewhere, far, far away...




"Somewhere Over the Rainbow"

(Harold Arlen / E.Y. Harburg)

Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high,
There's a land that I heard of
Once in a lullaby.
Somewhere over the rainbow
Skies are blue,
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come true.

Someday I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far
Behind me.
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
Away above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me.

Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly.
Birds fly over the rainbow.
Why then, oh why can't I?

If happy little bluebirds fly
Beyond the rainbow
Why, oh why can't I?

...algures, sobre o arco-íris...

...hoje passei o dia a cantarolar isto... talvez o arco-íris volte a brilhar... e eu encontre os tais tesouros fabulosos, como o riso das pessoas de quem gosto... é que afinal, apesar das imperfeições, o Mundo em que vivo nem é assim tão mau...



Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high,
There's a land that I heard of
Once in a lullaby.
Somewhere over the rainbow
Skies are blue,
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come true.

Someday I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far
Behind me.
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
Away above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me.

Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly.
Birds fly over the rainbow.
Why then, oh why can't I?

If happy little bluebirds fly
Beyond the rainbow
Why, oh why can't I?







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

(George Weiss / Bob Thiele)

...e quando tiver dinheiro Q.B., "oh pra eu" ali no meio desta paisagem...
