Man of La Mancha 1972
Soundtrack CD Cover
Do you know Man of La Mancha (1965) ?
Yes, I’ve been in it/worked on it
Yes, I’ve seen it
Yes, I’ve listened to it
No, but I’ve heard of it
No, never heard of it
To dream the impossible dream
To fight the unbeatable foe
To bear with unbearable sorrow
And to run where the brave dare not go
To right the unrightable wrong
And to love pure and chaste from afar
To try when your arms are too weary
To reach the unreachable star
This is my quest
To follow that star
No matter how hopeless
No matter how far
To fight for the right
Without question or pause
To be willing to march, march into Hell
For that Heavenly cause
And I know if I'll only be true
To this glorious quest
That my heart will lie peaceful and calm
When I'm laid to my rest
And the world will be better for this
That one man, scorned and covered with scars
Still strove with his last ounce of courage
To reach the unreachable star
SALVADOR DALI (Spanish 1904-1989) A LITHOGRAPH, "The Impossible Dream,"
Songwriters: Mitch Leigh / Joseph Darion
This is my quest To follow that star No matter how hopeless No matter how far To fight for the right Without question or pause To be willing to march, march into hell For that heavenly cause
Joe Darion, “The Impossible Dream (The Quest)”
Yet if you build your life on dreams, It's prudent to recall A man with moonlight in his hands Has nothing there at all.
“To Each His Dulcinea” from Man of La Mancha (written by Joe Darion and Mitch Leigh)
Tovah Feldshuh sings Which Way Do I Go? from Saravá [Broadway, March 1979]

Andy Williams - The Impossible Dream (The Quest) (1968)
"This is my quest,
To follow that star -
No matter how hopeless,
No matter how far -
To fight for the right
Without question or pause:
To be willing to march into Hell for a heavenly cause!
And I know
If I'll only be true
To this glorious quest,
That my heart
Will lie peaceful and calm
When I'm laid to my rest..."
