How many more years will we have to die Before we learn how to live? And how many will we continue to wait for peace With an olive and two swords? And how many green trees will be burned Because of wars and honor? I have no answers and all the hopes Have dispersed to all the winds [directions] How many ears does a man need To hear one who screams? And how many will continue to turn their faces Before they will look and see And how many years will we be closed here Before to freedom we depart? I have no answers and all the hopes Have dispersed to all the winds [directions] How much does a man have to pass through Before he is a man? How many years will the mountains tand Before they see the ocean? And how many more shells still have to explode Before everybody dies? I have no answers and all the hopes Have dispersed to all the winds [directions]
