Thief of Bagdad Aggrandized

Posted in Thoughts at 5:03 pm by Administrator

I was just looking for some information on line and happened to find the lyric of a song from one of my favorite movie, “The Thief of Baghdad” . I  used to only remeber the first sentence from this song. Suddently now, everything came out. Isn’t  Tai Chi the same thing?  After Years of perform. When the time comes, the right feeling came out in one day.

I WANT TO BE A SAILOR
From the movie “The Thief of Baghdad” (1940)
(Miklós Rózsa / Robert Denham / William Kernell)
I want to be a sailor,
Sailing out to sea.
No plowboy, tinker, tailor’s,
Any fun to be.
Aunts and cousins,
By the baker’s dozens,
Drive their men to sea,
Or highway robbery.
I want to be a bandit,
Can’t you understand it?
Sailing to sea is life for me,
Is life for me.
