The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,The answer is blowin' in the wind.


Today I happened to read a blog of one of my friends' friend.Reading the only post on it made me surprise.. the writer had written an article which was full of patriotic feelings.It was true feeling of a young man of Sri Lanka.The post made me think a lot... And the following piece of poetry by Bob Dylan hit my mind through out the post...
I think I have to write about the above mentioned post,but today I will just leave Bob Dylan's words
"The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,The answer is blowin' in the wind."



How many roads must a man walk down
Before you call him a man?
Yes, 'n' how many seas must a white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand?
Yes, 'n' how many times must the cannon balls fly
Before they're forever banned?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

How many times must a man look up
Before he can see the sky?
Yes, 'n' how many ears must one man have
Before he can hear people cry?
Yes, 'n' 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.

How many years can a mountain exist
Before it's washed to the sea?
Yes, 'n' how many years can some people exist
Before they're allowed to be free?
Yes, 'n' how many times can a man turn his head,
Pretending he just doesn't see?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

& last but not least i will say A lot to be done only a little done...
