farewell angelina

• bob dylanin yapip joan baezin seslendirdigi sarki.
  
  farewell angelina
  the bells of the crown
  are being stolen by bandits
  i must follow the sound
  the triangle tingles
  and the trumpet play slow
  farewell angelina
  the sky is on fire
  and i must go.
  there's no need for anger
  there's no need for blame
  there's nothing to prove
  ev'rything's still the same
  just a table standing empty
  by the edge of the sea
  farewell angelina
  the sky is trembling
  and i must leave.
  the jacks and queens
  have forsaked the courtyard
  fifty-two gypsies
  now file past the guards
  in the space where the deuce
  and the ace once ran wild
  farewell angelina
  the sky is folding
  i'll see you in a while.
  see the cross-eyed pirates sitting
  perched in the sun
  shooting tin cans
  with a sawed-off shotgun
  and the neighbors they clap
  and they cheer with each blast
  farewell angelina
  the sky's changing color
  and i must leave fast.
  king kong, little elves
  on the rooftoops they dance
  valentino-type tangos
  while the make-up man's hands
  shut the eyes of the dead
  not to embarrass anyone
  farewell angelina
  the sky is embarrassed
  and i must be gone.
  the fiends nail time bombs
  to the hands of the clocks
  call me any name you like
  i will never deny it
  farewell angelina
  the sky is erupting
  i must go where it's quiet.
• joan baezın yumuşak yorumuyla dinlenildiğinde "ne hatunmuş ama" düşüncelerine gark ettiren şarkı.
• jeff buckleyin gereksiz coverlarından biri daha.
• güzel, cok güzel john baez $arkisi.
• bob dylan'ın da bizzat seslendirdiği şarkıdır.
  ayrıca bob dylan'ın neden nobele layık görüldüğünü de anlamamızı sağlar
  "shut the eyes of the dead, not to embarrass anyone."
• "call me any name you like" sözü beni çok çok derin düşüncelere itmiştir.
  
  şarkı ile ilgisi var mı bilmiyorum ama savaş yıkıntılarının ortasında tamamen yalnız kalmış, kimliklerinin önemli olmadığı, sadece insan oldukları, sevgiye dönmüşlerin sözü gibidir.
