这首歌唱出了美好的愿望,与MLK著名的梦演讲异曲同工。而惨酷的越战片《早安越南》用了这歌,给人以希望视角展望未来。歌词讲到世界上美好的事物,如蔚蓝的天空、美丽的色彩与彩虹、人们彼此间的温暖和婴儿可爱的哭笑声等。
1967 年的原创最初计划是让声音沙哑、古怪的爵士乐传奇人物阿姆斯特朗(Louise Armstrong) 将这首歌作为一首曲子发行,以平息与缓和美国的一些种族和政治动荡,所以歌词采用了阳光与乐观的情调。
后来越战电影 《Good Morning, Vietnam》主演是著名喜剧演员Robin Williams, 他的出现与这首温暖的歌曲, 让人们对战争与生活有个别样的感知,缓和了那些鲜血尽染火, 光冲天的场面,用歌声救赎了灵魂,至少观众看完电影回家还能睡觉。
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
[Verse 2]
I see skies of blue and clouds of white
The bright blessed days, the dark sacred nights
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world
[Bridge]
The colors of the rainbow
So pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces
Of people going by
I see friends shaking hands, saying, "How do you do?"
They're really saying, "I love you"
[Verse 3]
I hear babies cry, 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
