song: 斯卡布羅集市 scarborough fair


[youtube]Xdpa7kpYCws[/youtube]
問爾所之，是否如適。 are you going to scarborough fair?
蕙蘭芫荽，鬱郁香芷。 parsely sage rosemary and thyme.
彼方淑女，憑君寄辭。 remember me to one who lives there.
伊人曾在，與我相知。 she once was a true love of mine.
囑彼佳人，備我衣緇。 tell her to make me a cambric shirt.
蕙蘭芫荽，鬱郁香芷。 parsely sage rosemary and thyme.
勿用針砧，無隙無疵。 without no seams nor needle work.
伊人何在，慰我相思。 then she will be a true love of mine.
彼山之陰，深林荒址。 on the side of hill in the deep forest green,
冬尋氈毯，老雀燕子。 tracing of sparrow on snow crested brown.
雪覆四野，高山遲滯。 blankets and bed clothers the child of maintain
眠而不覺，寒笳清嘶。 sleeps unawafe of the clarion call.
囑彼佳人，營我家室。 tell her to find me an acre of land.
蕙蘭芫荽，鬱郁香芷。 parsely sage rosemary and thyme.
良田所修，大海之坻。 between the salt water and the sea strand,
伊人應在，任我相視。 then she will be a true love of mine.
彼山之陰，葉疏苔蝕。 on the side of hill a sprinkling of leaves
滌我孤冢，珠淚漸漬。 washes the grave with slivery tears.
惜我長劍，日日拂拭。 a soldier cleans and polishes a gun.
寂而不覺，寒笳長嘶。 sleeps unaware of the clarion call.
囑彼佳人，收我秋實。 tell her to reap it with a sickle of leather.
蕙蘭芫荽，鬱郁香芷。 parsely sage rosemary and thyme.
斂之集之，勿棄勿失。 and gather it all in a bunch of heather.
伊人猶在，唯我相誓。 then she will be a ture love of mine.
將帥有令，勤王之事。 generals order their soldiers to kill and to fight for a cause.
爭鬥緣何，久忘其旨。 they have long ago forgoten.
痴而不覺，寒笳悲嘶。 sleeps unaware of the clarion call

Take me to your heart

Hiding from the rain and snow
Trying to forget but I won't let go
Looking at a crowded street
Listening to my own heart beat

So many people all around the world
Tell me where do I find someone like you girl

[Chorus]
Take me to your heart take me to your soul
Give me your hand before I'm old
Show me what love is - haven't got a clue
Show me that wonders can be true

They say nothing lasts forever
We're only here today
Love is now or never
Bring me far away

Take me to your heart take me to your soul
Give me your hand and hold me
Show me what love is - be my guiding star
It's easy take me to your heart

Standing on a mountain high
Looking at the moon through a clear blue sky
I should go and see some friends
But they don't really comprehend

Don't need too much talking without saying anything
All I need is someone who makes me wanna sing

let's relax

Starry Starry Night

　　美國著名民謠歌手Don McLean(唐-麥克林)的《Starry Starry Night》(星夜)是Don McLean為紀念荷蘭的偉大畫家文森特-梵高而作，收錄在那張為其贏來巨大聲譽的專輯《American Pie》(美國派)里，歌曲創作的靈感來自梵高的一幅著名的畫作。歌的旋律流暢得渾如天成，詞作也是如畫般的唯美，讓人想起德國小說家施篤姆的詩意小說中大段大段描寫的空濛月色，Don Mclean用原聲吉它自始至終伴著他的敘事詩似的歌，把人們帶入那冬天落雪的風景中。整首曲子的配器就是一把木吉他，極致的簡約之美。

　　梵高最受人愛戴的名畫就是1889年他住在St.Remy精神病院內所畫的The Starry Night，也就是Don McLean在《Starry Starry Night》的第一句歌詞。這幅名畫The Starry Night現放於紐約Museum of Modern Art內，每天開始及完結時，藝術館都會播放DonMcLean的《Starry Starry Night》這首名曲。

　　歌詞：

　　Starry, starry night

　　Paint your palette blue and gray

　　Look out on a summer's day

　　With eyes that know the darkness in my soul

　　Shadows on the hills

　　Sketch the trees and the daffodils

　　Catch the breeze and the winter chills

　　In colors on the snowy linen land

　　Chorus:

　　Now I understand

　　What you tried to say to me

　　How you suffered for your sanity

　　How you tried to set them free

　　They would not listen they did not know how

　　Perhaps they'll listen now

　　Starry, starry night

　　Flaming flowers that brightly blaze

　　Swirling clouds in violet haze

　　Reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue

　　Colors changing hue

　　Morning fields of amber grain

　　Weathered faces lined in pain

　　Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand

　　Chorus:

　　For they could not love you

　　But still your love was true

　　And when no hope was left inside

　　On that starry, starry night

　　You took your life as lovers often do

　　But I could have told you Vincent

　　This world was never meant for one as

　　beautiful as you

　　Starry, starry night

　　Portraits hung in empty halls

　　Frameless heads on nameless walls

　　With eyes that watch the world and can't forget

　　Like the strangers that you've met

　　The ragged men in ragged clothes

　　The silver thorn of bloody rose

　　Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow

　　Now I think I know

　　What you tried to say to me

　　How you suffered for your sanity

　　How you tried to set them free

　　They did not listen they're not listening still

　　Perhaps they never will
