"A Man Has Dreams" is a song from the 1964 Walt Disney film Mary Poppins, written by Richard M. Sherman and Robert B. Sherman. In both the motion picture and the 2004 stage musical, the song is performed as a conversational duet between Bert the chimney sweep (Dick Van Dyke) and George Banks (David Tomlinson). It is operatic in nature, sung dialogue, and was highly unusual for a musical film of that era. The song melody is a slowed-down version of "The Life I Lead", which serves as Banks's leitmotif. It incorporates a reprise of "A Spoonful of Sugar" which is Mary Poppins's leitmotif.

La melodía de la canción es una versión tranquila de la de "The Life I Lead" que sirve como leitmotif de Mr. Banks cuando es despedido. Tanto en la película como en el musical, la canción es interpretada como un dueto conversacional entre Bert, el deshollinador (Dick Van Dyke) y George Banks (David Tomlinson). Es de naturaleza operística, con diálogos cantados, y fue muy inusual para una película musical de esa época.

  • "A Man Has Dreams" is a song from the 1964 Walt Disney film Mary Poppins, written by Richard M. Sherman and Robert B. Sherman. In both the motion picture and the 2004 stage musical, the song is performed as a conversational duet between Bert the chimney sweep (Dick Van Dyke) and George Banks (David Tomlinson). It is operatic in nature, sung dialogue, and was highly unusual for a musical film of that era. The song melody is a slowed-down version of "The Life I Lead", which serves as Banks's leitmotif. It incorporates a reprise of "A Spoonful of Sugar" which is Mary Poppins's leitmotif. The melody first appears as George Banks marches through the front door of his home. At that point in the film, the song is bouncy in nature to reflect Banks's triumphant spirit. The song is then titled "The Life I Lead". It is reprised several times throughout the film. The final reprise is sung when Banks thinks he has lost everything, during which the music is more somber and the song itself retitled, "A Man Has Dreams". This song is pivotal in both the stage musical as well as the film. (en)

En ese punto de la película, la canción es de naturaleza alegre para reflejar el espíritu triunfal de Banks. La canción es entonces titulada "The Life I Lead". Es repetida varias veces a lo largo de la película. La repetición final es cantada cuando Banks cree que lo ha perdido todo, durante lo cual la canción se torna mucho más sombría y la canción es retitulada como "A Man Has Dreams". La canción es fundamental tanto en el musical como en la película. (es)
