聽歌學(xué)英語:感動(dòng)全愛爾蘭的歌 Cragie Hill

Cara Dillon一首美麗的”Craigie Hill”（克雷吉山），據(jù)說感動(dòng)了整個(gè)愛爾蘭。歌手的聲音清透美麗而極具風(fēng)格，借鑒引入了多個(gè)民族音樂特有的元素，并融入自己天然的個(gè)性和感染力。 在歌曲中敘述著一則美妙的故事。正如兩個(gè)相愛的人，不能時(shí)刻在一起。仿佛自己成了曲中的主角。相信距離不代表分離。隨著歌詞娓娓的到來讓我們仿佛躺在愛爾蘭廣袤、純凈的藍(lán)天之下靜靜享受碧綠的青草與清涼的湖水的純樸的芳香，此刻只有沉醉的相思。從現(xiàn)在起就一起放飛心情,追逐夢(mèng)想！

It being in the springtime and the small birds they were singing,
Down by yon shady harbour I carelessly did stray,
The the thrushes they were warbling,
The violets they were charming
To view fond lovers talking, a while I did delay.

She said, my dear don't leave me all for another season,
Though fortune does be pleasing I 'll go along with you,
I 'll forsake friends and relations and bid this Irish nation,
And to the bonny Bann banks forever I 'll bid adieu.

He said, my dear don't grieve or yet annoy my patience,
You know I love you dearly the more I'm going away,
I'm going to a foreign nation to purchase a plantation,
To comfort us hereafter all in Amerika y.

Then after a short while a fortune does be pleasing,
T'will cause them for smile at our late going away,
We'll be happy as Queen Victoria, all in her greatest glory,
We'll be drinking wine and porter all in Amerika y.

If you were in your bed lying and thinking on dying,
The sight of the lovely Bann banks, your sorrow you'd give o'er,
Or if were down one hour, down in yon shady bower,
Pleasure would surround you, you'd think on death no more.

Then fare you well, sweet Cragie Hills, where often times I've roved,
I never thought my childhood days I 'd part you any more,
Now we're sailing on the ocean for honour and promotion,
And the bonny boats are sailing, way down by Doorin shore.


那是在春天的時(shí)節(jié)，小鳥兒們?cè)诟璩?BR>沿著遠(yuǎn)處婆娑的海港，我不經(jīng)意間竟迷失了方向
畫眉鳥柔和的唱著歌，還有那嬌媚的紫羅蘭競(jìng)相開放
看著多情的戀人們低語，我停下了腳步
她說，親愛的請(qǐng)不要在任何季節(jié)離我而去
雖然命運(yùn)將我們捉弄，我還要與你在一起
我會(huì)放棄親友放棄愛爾蘭民族的祝愿
我對(duì)神發(fā)誓，我永遠(yuǎn)都不會(huì)說再見
他說，親愛的請(qǐng)不要悲傷,否則會(huì)困擾我的耐心
你要知道即使離開，我只會(huì)更強(qiáng)烈地愛你
我要去一個(gè)遙遠(yuǎn)的國(guó)度，去尋覓一片土地
來撫平災(zāi)難給我們帶來的所有創(chuàng)傷
不久以后當(dāng)一切都已經(jīng)平息
我將讓所有人都因我們這次離別而幸福
我們將像維多利亞女皇一樣快樂，有著她最偉大的榮耀
我們要在這廢墟上品嘗美酒佳肴
如果你躺在床上正思考著死亡
愛之神的目光，將你的憂傷帶到我身旁
或許瞬間就會(huì)降臨，降臨在那幽暗的涼亭
快樂將圍繞著你，你將不會(huì)再想到死亡
所以永別了吧，我可愛的克雷吉山巒，我曾漫游數(shù)次的地方
我以為從我孩童時(shí)期起就不會(huì)再和你分開
而如今我們卻航行在榮譽(yù)和重生的海洋里
沿著多里安海岸，美麗的船兒在航行
