爷爷时代的美好时光（英文歌词诗译）

Grandpa，Tell Me 'Bout The Good Old Days
by The Juds (Wynonna and Naomi Judds)
Songwriter: Jamie O'Hara

爷爷您再给我讲讲，那过去的时代是如何的美；
这个世道简直是象发了疯，人心浮动、世事全非。
爷爷，您再把我带回昨天去吧，
那个时候是非之间界线分明，而不是黑白难辨、模糊暧昧。

那时的情人们真地是一旦相爱,
就一定会风雨同舟、终生无悔？
那时的人们真地是一诺千金，
而并非只是嘴上说说，牙根儿不当回事情？
那时的家族真地是谨从祖训、严守家规？
那时的男人真地不抛妻弃子、一去不归？
噢，爷爷，您再给我讲讲那过去的时代是如何的美。

爷爷，而今的一切都朝三暮四、快变如飞；
我只是搞不懂这怎么会叫进步，还要大力鼓吹。
我说爷爷，咱们还是继续漫游，回到过去去吧，
您再絮叨絮叨，把旧时纯朴的民风为我描绘。

那时的情人们真地是一旦相爱，
就一定会风雨同舟、终生无悔？
那时的人们真地是一诺千金，
而不是说过就忘，全当没那回事情？
那时的家族真地是谨从祖训、严守家规？
那时的男人真地不抛妻弃子、一去不归？
噢，爷爷，您再给我讲讲那过去的时代是如何的美。
噢，爷爷，您再给我讲讲那过去的时代是如何的美。

[伴奏渐弱]

那时的家族真地是谨从祖训、严守家规？
那时的男人真地不抛妻弃子、一去不归？

原文

Grandpa, tell me 'bout the good old days.
Sometimes it feels like this world's gone crazy.
Grandpa, take me back to yesterday,
When the line between right and wrong didn't seem so hazy.

Did lovers really fall in love to stay,
And stand beside each other come what may?
Was a promise really something people kept,
Not just something they would say?
Did families really bow their heads to pray?
Did daddies really never go away?
Oh, Grandpa, tell me 'bout the good old days.

Grandpa, everything is changing fast.
We call it progress, but I just don't know.
And Grandpa, let's wander back into the past
And paint me the picture of long ago.

Did lovers really fall in love to stay,
And stand beside each other come what may?
Was a promise really something people kept,
Not just something they would say and then forget?
Did families really bow their heads to pray?
Did daddies really never go away?
Oh, Grandpa, tell me 'bout the good old days.
Oh, Grandpa, tell me 'bout the good old days.

[Instrumental Fade]
Did families really bow their heads to pray?
Did daddies really never go away?

随风而逝的烟尘（英文歌词诗译）

Dust In The Wind
by Kansas
Songwriters: Livgren, Kerry;

闭上我的双眼，此刻早已去得无踪无影
眼前掠过梦想，勾起一丁点新奇和兴奋
过眼烟尘，我们只不过是随风而逝的过眼烟尘
不变的老调，只不过是那无尽沧海的一滴清水
一切都已坍塌破碎，我们却视而不见置若罔闻

过眼烟尘，我们只不过是随风而逝的过眼烟尘

[此刻]
莫要留恋，世间没有永恒，唯有天地长存
时光流逝，你倾其所有也买不回光阴半寸

过眼烟尘，我们只不过是随风而逝的过眼烟尘
过眼烟尘，一切都不过是随风而逝的过眼烟尘

--------------------

原文

I close my eyes, only for a moment, and the moment's gone
All my dreams, pass before my eyes, a curiosity
Dust in the wind, all they are is dust in the wind.
Same old song, just a drop of water in an endless sea
All we do, crumbles to the ground, though we refuse to see

Dust in the wind, all we are is dust in the wind

[Now] Don't hang on, nothing lasts forever but the earth and sky
It slips away, and all your money won't another minute buy.

Dust in the wind, all we are is dust in the wind
Dust in the wind; everything is dust in the wind.

永不分手（英文歌词诗译）

Never Say Goodbye
by Hayley Westenra

假若瞬间能够永无终止
心灵的篇章能够重翻
假若能使时光倒流、空间变换
我们也就根本不会说Goodbye

假若我能找到恰当的言语
把深藏心底的爱意表达出来
在凝视你时也就不会口呆心慌
我们也就根本不会说Goodbye

假若我能让明月不再升起
白昼也就不会被黑夜替代
内心不会感到如此的凄凉
我们也就根本不会说Goodbye

真希望过去的美梦都已冻结
那样，在我们彼此分手的时候
也就不会如此地心碎欲绝 …

假若我能把握住那一瞬间
让它无限延迟，留下完美的笑脸
那样，我们的故事就会生动地继续
我们也就根本不会说再见

------------------------------------

原文

If I could take this moment forever
Turn the pages of my mind
To another place and time
We would never say goodbye

If I could find the words I would speak them
Then I wouldn't be tongue-tied
When I looked into your eyes
We would never say goodbye

If I could stop the moon ever rising
Day would not become the night
Wouldn't feel this cold inside
And we'd never say goodbye

I wish that our dreams were frozen
Then our hearts would not be broken
When we let each other go...

If I could steal this moment forever
Paint a picture-perfect smile
So our story stayed alive
We would never say goodbye

爱约 -- 原名 "Love, Me" （英文歌词诗译）

“Love, Me”
Song by Collin Raye
Lyrics by Skip Ewing & Max T. Barnes

我读过奶奶的一张字条，写于1923年；
爷爷把它视若珍宝，只让我看过一遍。
当时爷爷对我讲，“娃子也许你不懂，那是很久很久以前；
“我打心底爱上了你奶奶，可她爹对我却一点也看不起眼。

“我和你奶奶决定一起离家出走，约好了时间和地点，
“去到遥远的一个村庄，在那儿两相厮守、永世永远。
“等我来到约定的地方，看到树上钉着这么个纸条儿，
“而你奶奶，你奶奶她却是人影儿丝毫不见。

“‘如果你先我而到，你可千万莫要放弃，
“‘等我安排停当了，就赶来与你相会。
“‘我不知道那需要多久，但绝不会让你空等，
“‘最终你将看到，亲爱的，我真的不是骗你。
“‘从现在起直到我们再相见，
“‘我将一刻不停地深爱着你。
“‘爱你的，
“‘妹。’”

看到这个字条的时候，奶奶已是不久于人间，
当时我和爷爷作完祈祷，徘徊滞留在教堂门前。
在我成长的十五年里，我从没看见爷爷哭过，
可当对奶奶说这些话时，爷爷他泣不成声、泪流满面。

“如果你先我而到，你可千万莫要放弃，
“等我安排停当了，就赶来与你相会。
“我不知道那需要多久，但绝不会让你空等，
“最终你将看到，亲爱的，我真的不是骗你。
“从现在起直到我们再相见，
“我将一刻不停地
“不停地深爱着你。”

“从现在起直到我们来日相见，
“我将一刻不停地
“不停地深爱着你。”

原文

I read a note my Grandma wrote back in 1923.
Grandpa kept it in his coat, and he showed it once to me.
He said: "Boy, you might not understand, but a long long time ago,
"Grandma's daddy didn't like me none, but I loved your Grandma so.

"We had this crazy plan to meet, and run away together."
Get married in the first town we came to and live forever."
But, nailed to the tree where we were supposed to meet, instead,
"I found this letter, and this is what it said:

"'If you get there before I do, don't give up on me.
"'I'll meet you when my chores are through,
"'I don't know how long I'll be.
"'But I'm not gonna let you down: darlin' wait and see.
"'And between now and then,'til I see you again,
"'I'll be loving you,
"'Love, Me.'"

I read those words just hours before my Grandma passed away,
In the doorway of a church where me and grandpa stopped to pray.
I know I'd never seen him cry, in all my fifteen years.
But as he said these words to her, his eyes filled up with tears.

"If you get there before I do, don't give up on me.
"I'll meet you when my chores are through,
"I don't know how long I'll be.
"But I'm not gonna let you down: darlin' wait and see.
"And between now and then,'til I see you again,
"I'll be loving you,
"Love, Me."

"Between now and then,'til I see you again,
"I'll be loving you,
"Love, Me."

告别 – 最悲伤的语言（英文歌词诗译）

Goodbyes (The Saddest Word)
by Celine Dion

妈妈，您赋予我生命
把一个襁褓中的婴儿变成淑女红颜
妈妈，那时您困苦艰难
能给我的只有今生今世疼爱无限

如今我才知道，世上没有什么
能与母爱同日而言
如今我才知道，这样完美的爱也终会一去不返

您的告别，是人世间最悲伤的语言
您说告别，我们最后一次相拥无间
终有一天，您会对我这么讲
让我痛哭心碎，呼地喊天

妈妈，您给了我无限的爱
把一个无知的幼女抚养成年
妈妈，那时的我别无所求
只需要您保证爱我不变

因为我知道
没有别的爱
能像母爱一样的无悔无怨

这样伟大而坚强的爱
也终会舍我而去
想到此我不禁柔肠寸断、心痛万般

您的告别，是人世间最悲伤的语言
您说告别，我们最后一次相拥无间
终有一天，您会对我这么讲
让我痛哭心碎，呼地喊天

但是，您给我的爱将永在心田
每次呼唤，您都会来到我的眼前
用您伟大的爱支承起我的柔弱
让我从此变得身强志坚
我深深爱您，妈妈，直到永远永远

在您需要我的时候
我会始终守候在您的身边
我会好好陪伴您，一生一世
天地为证，日月可鉴

妈妈，我会
我会陪伴您度过最黑暗的夜晚
我会成为您的翅膀，让您的飞翔不再中断
我会为您挡风遮雨、解愁分忧
我会永远爱您，直到海枯石烂

您的告别，是人世间最悲伤的语言
您说告别，我们最后一次相拥无间
终有一天，您会对我这么讲
让我痛哭心碎，呼地喊天

总有一天，我们又会见面 …
直到那时 …
妈妈，再见

------------------------------------

原文

Mamma you gave life to me
Turned a baby into a lady
And mamma all you had to offer
Was a promise of a lifetime of love

Now I know there is no other love like a mother's
Love for her child
I know that love so complete someday must leave
Must say goodbye

Goodbye's the saddest word I'll ever hear
Goodbye's the last time I will hold you near
Someday you'll say that word and I will cry
It'll break my heart to hear you say goodbye

Mamma you gave love to me
Turned a young one into a woman
And mamma all I ever needed
Was a guarantee of you loving me

'Cause I know
There is no other
Love like a mother's love for her child

And it hurts so
That something so strong
Someday will be gone, must say goodbye

Goodbye's the saddest word I'll ever hear
Goodbye's the last time I will hold you near
Someday you'll say that word and I will cry
It'll break my heart to hear you say goodbye

But the love you gave me will always live
You'll always be there every time I call
You offered me the greatest love of all
You take my weakness and you make me strong

And I will always love you 'til forever comes
And when you need me
I'll be there for you all the way
I'll be there all life through
I'll be there this I guarantee

Mamma, I'll be
I'll be there through the darkest nights
I'll be the wings that guide your broken flight
I'll be your shelter through the raging storm
And I will love you 'till forever comes

Goodbye's the saddest word I'll ever hear
Goodbye's the last time I will hold you near
Someday you'll say that word and I will cry
It'll break my heart to hear you say goodbye

'Till we meet again...
Until then...
Goodbye

父女情深 -- 原名“轻吻”（英文歌词诗译）

Butterfly Kisses
by Bob Carlisle

我这个父亲马虎一生，唯有两点我是心知肚明
一者她是爸爸的宝贝女儿，二者她是上天所赠
每当晚间我屈膝在她的床边
她向上帝祷告，我也闭上眼睛
我感谢上苍给我人生所有的快乐
但我最要感谢的是这样一些事情 …

互道晚安的轻吻
满头的小花如云
“这是我首次骑马呃，爸爸，您紧跟其后，莫离分寸”
“这蛋糕看似怪怪的，爸爸，但真的，我已尽我所能”
噢，我在做错许多事情的同时，想必也做对了什么
才会得到她的清晨拥抱，以及晚间的轻吻

今天她满了十六岁
长的像她妈妈，渐渐日甚
一半还是个小女孩，另一半却是个女人
丝带卷发香水刺鼻，外加口红描眉涂脂抹粉
在这人海茫茫的世界上她初试羽翼
可她小时候的事儿我仍记忆犹新 …

互道晚安的轻吻
满头的小花如云
“您知道我有多么的爱您，爸爸，但希望您不介意”
“今天晚上嘛，我只能在您的面颊上亲亲”
噢，我在做错许多事情的同时，想必也做对了什么
才会得到她的清晨拥抱，以及晚间的轻吻

[所有宝贵的时光啊]
一年又一年的，逝去如风
[珍美的蝴蝶啊，展开你的翅膀，飞向高空]

今日她将改从夫姓
许下一个诺言，我就把她交给别人
凝视身穿嫁装的她，我不禁心如潮涌
她问我在想些什么，我说“我也说不太清”
我只是感到似乎在失去我的宝贝女儿
于是她就倾过身来 … 向我靠近 …

当着她妈妈的面，她给我一个轻吻
啊，那插满发间的朵朵小花，洁白如云
“是时候了，爸爸，您该带领我向神坛走进”
“您看我的嫁装美也不美？”“爸爸，爸爸，您莫要落泪”
“您的宝贝女儿，她会永远爱您”
噢，我在做错许多事情的同时，想必也做对了什么
才会得到她的清晨拥抱，以及晚间的轻吻

上苍啊上苍，我已是别无所求
有了这份爱，有了这份父女深情
我知道，我该让她去了
但我会不断回想起她小时候的事情 …

那每日清晨的拥抱，还有那飞蝶拂面般的轻吻 …

------------------------

原文

These two things I know for sure.
She was sent here from heaven, and she’s daddy’s little girl.
As I drop to my knees by her bed at night,
She talks to Jesus, and I close my eyes.
And I thank God for all the joy in my life,
Oh, but most of all ...

Butterfly kisses after bedtime prayer.
Stickin’ little white flowers all up in her hair.
"Walk beside the pony, daddy, it’s my first ride."
"I know the cake looks funny, daddy, but I sure tried."
Oh, with all that I’ve done wrong, I must have done something right
To deserve a hug every morning, and butterfly kisses at night.

Sweet sixteen today.
She’s looking like her momma, a little more every day.
One part woman, the other part girl.
To perfume and makeup, from ribbons and curls.
Trying her wings out in a great big world.
But I remember ...

Butterfly kisses after bedtime prayer.
Stickin’ little white flowers all up in her hair.
"You know how much I love you, daddy, but if you don’t mind,
I’m only going to kiss you on the cheek this time."
Oh, with all that I’ve done wrong, I must have done something right
To deserve a hug every morning, and butterfly kisses at night.

[All the precious time.]
Oh, like the wind the years go by.
[Precious butterfly, spread your wings and fly.]

She’ll change her name today.
She’ll make a promise, and I’ll give her away.
Standing in the bride room, just staring at her.
She asked me what I’m thinking, and I said "I’m not sure.”
I just feel like I’m losing my baby girl.
Then she leaned over... and gave me...

Butterfly kisses, with her mama there.
Stickin’ little white flowers all up in her hair.
"Walk me down the aisle, daddy, it’s just about time."
"Does my wedding gown look pretty, daddy?" "Daddy, don’t cry."

Oh, with all that I’ve done wrong, I must have done something right
To deserve a hug every morning, and butterfly kisses.
I couldn’t ask God for more, man, this is what love is.
I know I’ve gotta let her go, but I’ll always remember …

Every hug in the morning, and butterfly kisses ...

女人宣言 -- 俺要的男人（英文歌词诗译）

Any Man Of Mine
by Shania Twain

想做俺男人, 晓得女人都想要啥? 听好了 …

既是俺男人就得以俺为荣
就算俺是个丑八怪也要爱得不行
俺约会迟到没啥关系
他却得守时如钟
去年的衣服要是有点儿太紧呢
是俺男人他就得说是不紧不松
若是哪天心情不好
俺咋说咋做他都得依从
要是俺变卦
千次万次
他也要打心眼儿里说中
中，中，你咋说，就咋中

[合声]
是俺男人就得循规蹈矩谨谨慎慎
而且要会侃会调会抱会宠
俺的男人得是巧舌如簧能逗能捧
让俺心跳让俺惊喜气儿都没法出
要真是俺男人
真是俺男人他就该知道
说别的女人好看他绝对不能赞同
若是俺把饭给烧糊了
他也得说，嗯，正合俺胃口
要是俺变卦
千次万次
他也要打心眼儿里说中
中，中，你咋说，就咋中

[重复合声]

让俺听你说，中，中，你咋说，就咋中

[重复合声]

你得左晃右也晃
搞得山摇地也震
踢、转、跺两跺再一跳
脚尖儿连上脚后跟
直跳到脚也酸是背也疼
直跳到你是爬也爬不动
来，大伙儿都听好了
一、二、三、四 嘣，嚓，嘣嚓嚓

还在想做俺的男人？
看看，这些女人都想要 …

-------------------------------------------

原文

This is what a woman wants...

Any man of mine better be proud of me
Even when I'm ugly he still better love me
And I can be late for a date that's fine
But he better be on time
Any man of mine'll say it fits just right
When last year's dress is just a little too tight
And anything I do or say better be okay
When I have a bad hair day
And if I change my mind
A million times
I wanna hear him say
Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah, yeah I like that way

Chorus:
Any man of mine better walk the line
Better show me a teasin' squeezin' pleasin' kinda time
I need a man who knows, how the story goes
He's gotta be a heartbeatin' fine treatin'
Breathtakin' earthquakin' kind
Any man of mine
Well any man of mine better disagree
When I say another woman's lookin' better than me
And when I cook him dinner and I burn it black
He better say, mmm, I like it like that yeah
And if I change my mind
A million times
I wanna hear him say
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I like it that way

(Repeat Chorus)

Let me hear you say yeah, yeah, yeah yeah, yeah I like it that way

(Repeat Chorus)

You gotta shimmy shake
Make the earth quake
Kick, turn, stomp, stomp, then you jump
Heel to toe, Do Si Do
'Til your feet And your backache
Keep it movin' `till you just can't take anymore
Come on everybody on the floor A-one two, a three four
Hup two, hup

If you wanna be a man of mine, that's right
This is what a woman wants...

夜越高加索（英文歌词诗译）

Night Ride Across The Caucasus
by Loreena McKennitt

驰骋远方
游缰纵马穿过夜幕
驰骋远方

浮影幻变，记忆飞掠
马蹄声如雷鸣在山谷间回荡
篝火闪烁，笑声飞动
幽灵们在千万个古墓中歌唱

在天鹅绒般的黑暗里
在静寂森林的剪影旁
他们在窥视等待，他们在漠然观望
他们目睹生命的奥秘、喜乐与悲伤

繁星落向沉睡的山岗
跳跃闪烁，连入海洋
广漠原野的温柔之手导引着我
驰近它的终极方向

带我去吧，去完成穿越时空的旅程
去到那荒无人烟文明不及的地方
走进那原始森林的神殿
让时间在散落的语言里被遗忘

带我问天问地，参悟阴阳
带我探求知识古树的根须深埋何方
带我起舞，带我歌唱
我将纵马飞奔，直到大海淹没了月光

驰骋远方
游缰纵马穿透夜幕
驰骋远方 ......

-----------------------------------------

原文

Ride on
Through the night
Ride on
[Repeat]

There are visions, there are memories
There are echoes of thundering hooves
There are fires, there is laughter
There's the sound of a thousand tombs

Ride on
Through the night
Ride on
[Repeat]

In the velvet of the darkness
By the silhouette of silent trees
They are watching, they are waiting
They are witnessing life's mysteries

Ride on
Through the night
Ride on
[Repeat]

Cascading stars on the slumbering hills
They are dancing as far as the sea
Riding o'er the land, you can feel its gentle hand
Leading on to its destiny

Ride on
Through the night
Ride on
[Repeat]

Take me with you on this journey
Where the boundaries of time are now tossed
In cathedrals of the forest
In the words of the tongues now lost

Find the answers, ask the questions
Find the roots of an ancient tree
Take me dancing, take me singing
I'll ride on till the moon meets the sea

Ride on
Through the night
Ride on
[Repeat till end]
