Irving Jacobson feat. Richard Kiley - Man Of La Mancha (Original Cast)

Man Of La Mancha (I, Don Quixote)

I shall impersonate a man
Come, enter into my imagination and see him
Bony, hollow-faced, eyes that burn with the fire of inner vision
He conceives the strangest project ever imagined
To become a knight-errant and sally forth into the world righting all wrongs
His name: Don Quixote de La Mancha!

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
My destiny calls and I go
And the wild winds of fortune
Shall carry me onward
Oh, whithersoever they blow
Whithersoever they blow
Onward to glory I go!

I'm Sancho
Yes, I'm Sancho
I'll follow my master 'til the end
I'll tell all the world proudly
I'm his squire, I'm his friend

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 (I'm Sancho)
The Lord of La Mancha (Yes, I'm Sancho)
My destiny calls and I go (I'll follow my master 'til the end)
And the wild winds of fortune (I'll tell all the)
Shall carry me onward (World proudly)
Oh, whithersoever they blow! (I'm his squire, I'm his friend)
Whithersoever they blow
Onward to glory I go!
