Man Of La Mancha - I, Don Quixote Lyrics

Don quixote
Hear me now
Oh thou bleak and unbearable world,
Thou art base and debauched as can be;
And a knight with his banners all bravely unfurled
Now hurls down his gauntlet to thee!
I am i, don quixote,
The lord of la mancha, þ
My destiny calls and i go,
And the wild winds of fortune
Will carry me onward,
Oh whithersoever they blow.
Whithersoever they blow,
Onward to glory i go!

Sancho
I'm sancho! yes, i'm sancho!
I'll follow my master till the end.
I'll tell all the world proudly
I'm his squire! i'm his friend!

Don quixote
Hear me, heathens and wizards
And serpents of sin!
All your dastardly doings are past,
For a holy endeavor is now to begin
And virtue shall triumph at last!

(don quixote and sancho panza mount their horses and set out along a road)

Don quixote
I am i, don quixote,
The lord of la mancha,
My destiny calls and i go,
And the wild winds of fortune
Will carry me onward,
Oh whithersoever they blow!
Sancho
I'm sancho! yes, i'm sancho!
I'll follow my master till the end.
I'll tell all the world proudly
I'm his squire! i'm his friend!

Don quixote, sancho
Whithersoever they blow,
Onward to glory i (we) go!
