Creedence Clearwater Revival - Have you ever seen the rain?

Someone told me long ago,
there's a calm before the storm.
I know, and it's been comin' for some time.
When it's over, so they say, it'll rain a sunny day.
I know, shinin' down like water.
I want to know, have you ever seen the rain?
I want to know, have you ever seen the rain
comin' down on a sunny day?
Yesterday, and days before,
sun is cold and rain is hard.
I know, it's been that way for all my time.
'Til forever on it goes
through the circle fast and slow,
I know, and it can't stop, I wonder.
I want to know, have you ever seen the rain?
I want to know, have you ever seen the rain
comin' down on a sunny day?
I want to know, have you ever seen the rain?
I want to know, have you ever seen the rain
comin' down on a sunny day?
comin' down on a sunny day?

Deep Purple - Child In Time 1970

Sweet child in time you'll see the line
The line that's drawn between the good and the bad
See the blind man shooting at the world
Bullets flying taking toll
If you've been bad, Lord I bet you have
And you've been hit by flying lead
You'd better close your eyes and bow your head
And wait for the ricochet

Joe Cocker - With a Little Help From My Friends (Woodstock) 1969

What would you think if I sang out of tune,
Would you stand up and walk out on me?
Lend me your ears and I'll sing you a song
And I'll try not to sing out of key.

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends
Mm, I get high with a little help from my friends
Mm, gonna try with a little help from my friends

What do I do when my love is away
(Does it worry you to be alone?)
How do I feel by the end of the day,
(Are you sad because you're on your own?)

No, I get by with a little help from my friends
Mm, I get high with a little help from my friends
Mm, gonna try with a little help from my friends

Do you need anybody
I need somebody to love
Could it be anybody
I want somebody to love.

Would you believe in a love at first sight
Yes, I'm certain that it happens all the time
What do you see when you turn out the light
I can't tell you but I know it's mine,

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends
Mm, I get high with a little help from my friends
Mm, gonna try with a little help from my friends

Do you need anybody
I just need someone to love
Could it be anybody
I want somebody to love.

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends
With a little help from my friends.

Animals - The House Of The Rising Sun 1968

Blowin' in the wind 1963

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 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,
And Pretend that he just doesn't see?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

YES, 'N' 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.

What a wonderful world

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 colors of the rainbow, so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces, of people going by
I see friends shaking hands, sayin' "how do you do?"
They're really sayin' "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
Oh yeah

LA LAMINETTA ORFICA DI HIPPONION

Museo Archeologico Statale di Vibo Valentia.
Misure: larghezza mm. 59 in alto; 49 in basso; alt. mm. 32.
Provenienza: da una tomba, databile con molta probabilità alla prima metà del sec. IV a.C., della necropoli di Hipponion.


Di Mnemosine è questa tomba.

( Per l'iniziato ) quando sarà sul punto di morire.

Andrai alle case ben salde di Ade; vi è a destra una fonte;

presso di essa si erge un bianco cipresso

Là discendono le anime dei morti e trovano refrigerio.

A questa fonte non avvicinarti affatto.

Più avanti troverai la fresca acqua che scorre

dal lago di Menmosine; vi stanno dinanzi custodi

che ti chiederanno con mente saggia

che cosa tu vada cercando attraverso la tenebra di Ade caliginoso.

Di': "Sono figlio della Terra e del Cielo Stellato,

sono arso di sete e muoio; ma datemi presto

da bere la fresca acqua che scorre dal lago di Mnemosine".

Ed essi lo riferiranno al re di sotterra,

e ti daranno da bere dal lago di Mnemosine.

E tu, dopo aver bevuto, andrai sulla sacra via

che anche altri iniziati e consacrati percorrono gloriosi.

You"ll never walk alone

"You'll Never Walk Alone" è una canzone scritta da Richard Rodgers e Oscar Hammerstein II per il loro musical del 1945, Carousel. Questa fu cantata nello spettacolo originale da Christine Johnson e poi da Jan Clayton accompagnato dal coro. È stata cantata nel film da Claramae Turner (sebbene Shirley Jones in lacrime cercò di cantarla per prima, ma non ci riuscì), e in seguito da Ms. Jones accompagnata dal coro.Nel musical, la canzone viene cantata dopo la morte del protagonista, Billy Bigelow, per dare coraggio a Julie Jordan, che è incinta, ed è ripresa nella scena finale.
La canzone fu registrata da diversi artisti come Frank Sinatra, il grande tenore Mario Lanza, Patti La Belle and the Blue Belles, Elvis Presley Judy Garland.
Nonostante si consideri erroneamente (ma non troppo) che la canzone sia stata introdotta in ambito sportivo dal Liverpool Football Club, nel cui stadio viene cantata costantemente prima, e alla fine di ogni partita da tutti i tifosi, e campeggi una scritta You'll Never Walk Alone sul cancello fuoristante lo stadio stesso e nello stemma della squadra, la tifoseria a cui bisogna rendere il merito di aver trasformato la canzone in un coro calcistico è quella della squadra scozzese del Celtic.

When you walk through a storm

Hold your head up high

And don't be afraid of the dark.

At the end of a storm Is a golden sky.

And the sweet, silver song of a lark.
Walk on, through the wind,

Walk on, through the rain,

Though your dreams be tossed and blown.

Walk on, walk on with hope in your heart,

And you'll never walk alone,

You'll never walk alone.

Quando percorri una tempesta
sostieni la tua testa verso l'alto
e non avere paura delle tenebre.
Alla fine della tempesta c'è un cielo dorato.
E l'argentea canzone di un'allodola.
Prosegui attraverso il vento,
Prosegui attraverso la pioggia,
anche se i tuoi sogni vengono scossie colpiti.
Prosegui, prosegui con la speranza nel tuo cuor
e non camminerai mai da solo
non camminerai mai da solo.
