Westlife - The Rose lyrics 歌詞翻譯

我覺得這首歌是最讓我感動的歌~  the most touching song ever!!
歌詞以「玫瑰」來暗示愛情,在Westlife溫暖的歌聲中,
單身的人、失戀的人、對愛情感到不安的人,都能得到comfort
而幸福,就在不遠的將來


※因為我搜尋了各大翻譯,找不到滿意的版本,只好嘗試翻譯一下;
又因為很多歌詞翻譯有過多的修飾,對於學語文呢,不是那麼直覺,
所以以下的版本以歌詞本身寫出來的意思為主,個人解讀&說明的版本,再另文說明。


Some say love it is a river 
That drowns the tender reed.
Some say love it is a razor
That leaves your soul to bleed.
有人說:愛是一條河流,會將柔弱的蘆葦淹沒。
有人說:愛是一把剃刀,會留下你的靈魂在那淌血。

Some say love it is a hunger
An endless, aching need
I say love it is a flower,
And you it's only seed.
有人說:愛是一種渴望,一種無止盡疼痛著的需要。
而我說:愛是一朵花朵,而你是他唯一的種子。

It's the heart afraid of breaking
That never learns to dance
It's the dream afraid of waking
That never takes the chance
那害怕心碎的心,永遠學不會如何跳舞。
那害怕被喚醒的夢想,永遠無法掌握機會。

It's the one who won't be taken,
Who cannot seem to give

And the soul afraid of dying
That never learns to live.
那個不被接受的人,也無法付出 ()
而害怕著會死亡的靈魂,永遠學不會活在當下。

When the night has been too lonely
And the road has been too long.
And you think that love is only
For the lucky and the strong.
當夜晚已經顯得過於寂寞,而道路已經顯得過於漫長
你會想說,愛只有幸運和強壯的人才能得到

Just remember in the winter
Far beneath the bitter snow
Lies the seed that with the sun's love,
In the spring, becomes the rose.
你只要記得,在冬天裡,嚴寒的雪的深處,躺著一顆種子
有陽光的陪伴,在春天時,就會變成玫瑰

Where is the love 愛在哪裡? 1/3

昨天看到Discovery星期天話題:911事件勇氣航班,馬上就想到這首歌


運用政治、宗教當武器,灌輸敵我思想,催眠信仰者發動""
用恐怖的手法的確是得到關注了!但不會是關懷、了解;
只是產生更大的隔閡:
雙方都不願意去原諒對方、了解對方、化解衝突,然後惡性循環...

戰爭不是神聖的行為,不管你是用宗教、種族(族群)來區分敵我,
這樣只會產生更多的仇恨、分裂,
冤冤相報何時了呢?

好啦!我知道這不可能實現「世界和平」、「世界大同」
不然就沒有這麼多的戰爭歷史、沒有政客... 
甚至…X戰警拍完第一戰後就沒戲唱了~ XD


What's wrong with the world, mama
People livin' like they ain't got no mamas
I think the whole world addicted to* the drama *戲劇;戲劇性 
Only attracted to* things that'll bring you trauma *創傷
Overseas, yeah, we try to stop terrorism *恐怖主義
But we still got terrorists 
*恐怖份子 here livin' 
In the USA, the big CIA
The Bloods and The Crips and the KKK
But if you only have love for your own race *種族 (賽跑也是這個字)
Then you only leave space to discriminate *差別待遇/歧視 (由上文可知是指種族方面的歧視)
And to discriminate only generates *產生 hate *仇恨 
And when you hate then you're bound to* get irate*, yeah
Madness* is what you demonstrate *呈現;demo就是這個字的縮寫
And that's exactly how anger * works and operates *運作
Man, you gotta have love just to set it straight *正確的(這邊是指正途)
Take control of your mind and meditate *沉思
Let your soul gravitate *被吸引 to the love, y'all, y'all

People killin', people dyin'
Children hurt and hear them cryin'
Can you practice what you preach* 教義
Would you turn the other cheek

Father, Father, Father help us
Send some guidance *指引 from above
'Cause people got me, got me questionin'
Where is the love (Love)

Where is the love (The love)
Where is the love (The love)
Where is the love
The love, the love



中文翻譯歌詞


addicted to 沉溺於…
attracted to 這邊是指被動的吸引
gravitate (像重力般的) 被吸引


madness - 名詞 這裡是指生氣;這個詞也有瘋狂的意思
irate - 形容詞 生氣的  Extremely angry
anger - 動詞;名詞 生氣,當形容詞就是angry

You and I - by Ingrid Michaelson

相當甜美輕快的一首歌~ 
最後面的: 咚咚拍的節奏讓我好像要跟著 踏踏拍,
然後唱著we will we will rock you (誤)


 

Don't you worry, there my honey
We may not have any money
But we've got our love to pay the bills  *帳單

Maybe I think you're cute and funny
Maybe I want to do what bunnies do with you  *小免子
If you know what I mean

Oh, let's get rich and buy our parents homes in the south of France *有錢的
Let's get rich and give everybody nice sweaters *毛衣
and teach them how to dance
Let's get rich and build a house on a mountaintop    *山頂

Making everybody look like ants from way up there,  *螞蟻
You and I, you and I (chorus)

Well you might be a bit confused      *困惑
And you might be a little bit bruised  *瘀傷; (感情等方面的)挫傷
But, baby how we spoon like no one else *註1
So I will help you read those books
If you will soothe my worried looks *撫慰; 減輕
And we will put the lonesome on the shelf     *寂寞    *架子


repeat chorus x2

中文翻譯歌詞

這首歌很多地方都押韻(rhyme)喔~ 所以聽起來更加順耳~ 好聽^^

*註1 spoon 當名詞時,是大家熟悉的湯匙(圖)
But, baby how we spoon like no one else 又是什麼意思?
我們"湯匙的"像沒有其他人"湯匙"過一樣?
It doesn't make any sense...

原來spoon有另一個意思:
informal To engage in amorous behavior, such as kissing or caressing. (source)
【口】談情說愛; 動手動腳 (source)

有一個跟spoon單字長得像,東西也長的像的詞:
scoop - 勺子; 常見的就是挖冰淇淋用的那種勺子(圖)
所以一球、二球冰淇淋,不是球類運動的ball, 是用scoop算的!

一球冰淇淋:one scoop of ice cream
二球冰淇淋:two scoops of ice cream

我也想要懶洋洋 Bruno Mars - The Lazy Song

輕快的曲風,炎熱的夏天,我也想要懶洋洋 


中英歌詞 ←請點此

雖然有中英了,大家還是要看一下英文歌詞,
這個網站裡的英文歌詞會穿插幾個"by lovechiucc",這個是歌不的唱的唷~
以下就摘錄幾句:

Today I don't feel like doing anything
I just wanna lay in my bed
Don't feel like picking up my phone,
so leave a message at the tone
'Cause today I swear I'm not doing anything

feel like + noun/Ving

後面接的是動名詞: to want to do something
後面接的是東西,意思是想要什麼or 感覺什麼,要看上下文;
如果是接吃的:就是想吃什麼: e.g.  I feel like (having) a steak.

swear
發誓,電影會看到發誓時會說:swear to god

I might mess around and get my college degree

I bet my old mam would be so proud of me
But sorry paps you'll just have to wait

old man
paps 都是指father

mess around -鬼混, 無所事事
mess當名詞就是髒亂、混亂的意思,
mess up 的mess當成動詞,就是把事情弄糟了
e.g. messed it up. 

proud of -  為…感到驕傲

No I ain't gonna comb my hair
Cause I ain't gonna anywhere
I'll just strut in my birthday suit

comb 
- 當名詞是梳子,當動詞就是梳啦!

birthday suit - 如果慶生活動要求壽星穿"birthday suit",
保證沒人參加~Why? 因為這不是指真的有穿衣服,
birthday suit就是你誕生時穿的--光遛遛那件-- 就裸體啦!


這首歌好玩吧?!
