200pxforrestgumpsoundtrack_2 One of my fav movie of all time. watched it like more than 4 times and never get bore of it. and here i just wanna share 1 particular song from the original soundtrack which i like it very much.

Furthermore, i din know the lyric from the song where taken from a Bible! i only get to know it after reading an email from Alex. the title is Turn! Turn! Turn!, sang by The Bryds. most part of the lyric are taken from  Book of Ecclesiastes, 3:1-8. here’s the lyric to the song:

(Words adapted from the Book of Ecclesiastes by Pete Seeger; music by Pete Seeger)

To everything – turn, turn, turn
There is a season – turn, turn, turn
And a time for every purpose under heaven

A time to be born, a time to die
A time to plant, a time to reap
A time to kill, a time to heal
A time to laugh, a time to weep

To everything – turn, turn, turn
There is a season – turn, turn, turn
And a time for every purpose under heaven

A time to build up, a time to break down
A time to dance, a time to mourn
A time to cast away stones
A time to gather stones together

To everything – turn, turn, turn
There is a season – turn, turn, turn
And a time for every purpose under heaven

A time of war, a time of peace
A time of love, a time of hate
A time you may embrace
A time to refrain from embracing

To everything – turn, turn, turn
There is a season – turn, turn, turn
And a time for every purpose under heaven

A time to gain, a time to lose
A time to rend, a time to sew
A time to love, a time to hate
A time of peace, I swear it’s not too late!

Yes, there’s a time for everything and every activity happened has a time.

cheers…
