Buona domenica,  amici del blog!

Non so se anche voi vedete una specie di scala a pioli nei rami di questi alberi,  come sembra di vedere a me,  ma osservandoli durante un giro nei boschi mi e’ tornata in mente questa trascinante canzone pubblicata dal Boss nell’ottimo album:  “The Seeger’s Session”,  dove ripropone brani del grande cantante folk Pete Seeger.

Il brano si intitola:  “Jacob’s Ladder”,  cioe’:  “La scala di Giacobbe”  e si rifa’ al sogno del biblico patriarca che vide una scala che dalla Terra portava direttamente al Cielo,  simbolo della vicinanza di Dio.  (Il testo e’ in calce al post).

Buon ascolto!    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=usYzTPFlQoA

Happy Sunday,  dear blog-friends!

I don’t know if you too see a kind of ladder in the branches of the trees in my shots,  as I seem to see,  but observing them during a walk in the woods,  this enthralling song came to mind.  It was published by the Boss in his excellent album “The Seeger’s Session”,  where he re-proposed songs by great folk singer Pete Seeger.

The song title is:  “Jacob’s Ladder”,  and refers to the dream of the biblical patriarch who saw a ladder leading directly from the Earth to Heaven,  a symbol of God’s closeness. (Lyrics below).

Enjoy it!    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=usYzTPFlQoA
