Donna Donna Lyrics
Artist(Band):Joan Baez
Review The Song (10)Print the Lyrics
On a waggon 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.
Donna, Donna, Donna, Donna; Donna, Donna, Donna, Don.
Donna, Donna, Donna, Donna; Donna, Donna, Donna, 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?“ + Chorus
Calves are easily bound and slaughtered,
never knowing the reason why.
But whoever treasures freedom,
like the swallow has learned to fly. + Chorus



(Joan Baez)

Review about Donna Donna

Old memories surface | Reviewer: JB Matthews | 6/20/09

At 10:00 Pat Garvey called me as i was drifting to sleep. Wanting the lyrics to this song. Now, I'm thrilled as Pat had had a stroke and is partially paralyed on the left side and been in recovery homes for several years unable to play guitar or sing his own songs. It tells me that his memory is coming back as well as his abilities to talk and move around more.

Memory of old days | Reviewer: Miftah al Zaman | 5/8/09

First, I knew only the instrumental play of this song as the part of compilations : Soft & Beautiful. This song was one of my favorites. The music is so melodius and beautiful, and the lyrics are also inspiring. I used to listen to this song when I was at junior high, at the time when parents were still there. Nice memory of mine. Now they have all gone and this song is here reminding me to them.

I don't know the song's lyrics when I first hear it but I love it at the first time, it's like a song from far away .
Yes, you must learn to fly to treasures the freedom. Everyone have wings of their own, only the one who loves freedom will try to fly.
Thank you .



mariah samad STF | Reviewer: Rom | 1/16/09

I first heard this song being played by a very beautiful girl maybe her name is Mariah Samad, an upper six Sekolah Tun Fatimah JB in early 70s. She sang this song as she played the guitar. I thought the song was as beautiful as the singer.... and I still love this song to this day.



Love This! | Reviewer: Oboque | 12/15/08

I love this song! I heard this for the very first time, when an Indonesian film entitled 'GIE' took it as one of the soundtrack.
And, you know, this song has built up my spirit and my sense of nationalism.
Great!
Remember,
Whoever treasures freedom,
Like a swallow has learned to fly..



Sad Song | Reviewer: Wimon | 5/27/08

I heard this song the first time when I was a 1st yr student at uni..

Now I'm an intern teacher.. when I hear this song I miss my friends and the teacher.

And I work as a teacher, I'm gonna teach them this song too.

Best Wishes for our world..



Good song! | Reviewer: Winnie | 2/5/08

I learned this song in music class in grade 6. I have long forgotten the other songs I learned in that class but to this day I still remember Donna Donna! The lyrics is so sad and goes so well with the melody, i guess maybe that's why I remembered it.



My Darling Donna | Reviewer: Rolan Cobb | 1/9/08

My wife's name was Donna, she is gone now and every time I hear this song I think so kindly of her and all the great times we had together.

She gave me two beautiful little girls, one has gone to heaven to be with her Mother in their eternal home.

I will join them some day.
