Man of La Mancha [I, Don Quixote] lyrics

Hear me now, oh thou bleak and unbearable world

Thou art base and debauched as can be

For a knight with his banner all bravely unfurled

Now hurls down his gauntlet to thee!

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

Whithersoever they blow

Onward to glory I go!

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!

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

Whithersoever they blow

Onward to glory I go!

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

I am 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

Whithersoever they blow

Onward to glory I go!
