人永遠不知道,誰哪次不經意地跟你說了再見之後,就真的不會再見了。
-宮崎駿《千與千尋》
最近一直單曲循環的一首歌《Million Years Ago》,出自英國流行歌手Adele阿黛《25》這張專輯。她曾經說過,這張專輯是哀悼逝去的青春,對過去的和解。而這首歌網譯爲"燈火闌珊""更爲貼切。
驀然回首,那人卻在燈火闌珊處。
Adele是我很喜歡的一位女歌手,以前常聽她的《Someone like You》,《Rolling In The Deep》,也是紅遍中國大街小巷的流行歌,百聽不厭。而這首歌直觸我心,舒緩美妙的音樂,加之Adele的淺吟低唱,真是無不讓人陶醉,浮想聯翩。
不禁想象着自己幾十年後,坐在酒吧裏,飲一壺濁酒,聽着背景樂,放着這首歌。想念着自己逝去的親朋好友,人生匆匆, 過往雲煙。已逝的日子是如此難忘,但那些都是回不去的曾經。
不禁感慨萬千,彷徨無助。我這一生就這樣過去了, 我得到了什麼,又失去了什麼。我來這世間走一遭,是否讓自己活的有意義,而我的意義又賦予了它什麼意義?
突然某一天,你會發現,每個令你難過的人都曾讓你開心過。
突然某一天,你會發現,餘生最美好的就是今天。
我不想突然發現這些,我想此刻此時此生,都明白這些。
我不想自己兩鬢霜白時,彷徨無助,止步不前。才感慨這一生,一無所獲。
我更不想自己因年少輕狂,錯失了那些愛我的人,錯失了那些我值得一輩子銘記的事。
父母尚在,朋友相伴。太陽照常升起,夢想依舊可追。
既然知道了自己該去珍惜,該去拼命呵護那些對我們重要的人事物。
何不抓住此時,何不擁護此刻,何不過好此生。
來不及感嘆,來不及惆悵。想到的就去做,想愛的就去愛,想孝敬父母就去孝敬,不要等到有能力了纔去做。
不要說等到我...再去...
不要說我真後悔....如果..
這些句式,是我們常常都會用到的,何不改爲"我現在就去...","我無怨無悔..."。
那句爛大街的話"不要等到失去了才後悔",你知我知他知,知之者反而不知。
你不會遇到第二個我,友情也好,愛情也罷。
把你所有抱怨的時間,都拿去努力奮鬥吧!
把你所有錯過的人事,都在此時此刻珍惜!
這首歌我單曲循環了好幾天,可以找個安靜的下午,喝杯香醇的咖啡,細細品味這首歌帶來的震撼。每當聽到這首歌,我腦海裏就漂浮着種種畫面,有對過去的緬懷,有對未來的期待。
有感興趣的小夥伴,或者也喜歡這首歌的,可以一起探討你們聽完的感受喲。
以下是該歌曲的中英歌詞,有兩個翻譯版本,我都非常喜歡
I only wanted to have fun
曾經的我 怎知愁苦
Learning to fly, learning to run
肆意去跑 去飛翔
I let my heart decide the way
追尋心之所向
When I was young
那一去不復返的青春啊
Deep down I must have always known
內心深處 我早已看透
That this is would be inevitable
沒人能逃離這滄桑世事
To earn my stripes I'd have to pay
贏來滿身榮耀
And bare my soul
代價則是任由靈魂暴露於世
I know I'm not the only one
我明明你我都倍受歲月羈絆
Who regrets the things they've done
心繫往事 又追悔莫及
Sometimes I just feel it's only me
卻只有我孤身一人
Who can't stand the reflection that they see
揹負着那衆人皆知的痛苦
I wish I could live a little more
祈求老天再賜我些時日
Look up to the sky, not just the floor
我一定不再低頭 仰望天空
I feel like my life is flashing by
可眼看一生就此掠過
And all I can do is watch and cry
卻無能爲力 唯有涕淚縱橫
I miss the air, I miss my friends
我是多麼懷念故人至交和往昔那份清新
I miss my mother; I miss it when
懷念久別的媽媽 懷念那時我
Life was a party to be thrown
傻傻地覺得人生不過是一場不散的筵席
But that was a million years ago
驀然回首 卻已是萬年
When I walk around all of the streets
再次踏上那些熟悉的小巷
Where I grew up and found my feet
回到這生我養我的地方
They can't look me in the eye
迎來的不再是笑臉
It's like they're scared of me
而是人們恐懼的眼神
I try to think of things to say
尷尬的我無話可說
Like a joke or a memory
縱使拋出往日趣事
But they don't recognize me now
他們再也認不出我姓甚名誰
In the light of day
怎奈朗朗乾坤也照不透我滿身的世故啊
I know I'm not the only one
明明你我都在成長中迷惘
Who regrets the things they've done
唏噓舊日 卻無力迴天
Sometimes I just feel it's only me
可不禁覺得世上只有我
Who never became who they thought they'd be
長大後變成了自己不喜歡的人
I wish I could live a little more
祈求老天再賜我些時日
Look up to the sky, not just the floor
我一定不再低頭 仰望天空
I feel like my life is flashing by
可眼看一生就此掠過
And all I can do is watch and cry
卻無能爲力 唯有涕淚縱橫
I miss the air, I miss my friends
我是多麼懷念故人至交和往昔那份清新
I miss my mother, I miss it when
懷念久別的媽媽 懷念那時我
Life was a party to be thrown
傻傻地覺得人生不過是一場不散的筵席
But that was a million years ago
驀然回首 卻已是萬年
A million years ago
已是萬年
Million Years Ago
燈火闌珊時
I only wanted to have fun
愚趣唯我求
Learning to fly, learning to run
天地任熬遊
I let my heart decide the way
年輕正錦時
When I was young
依心而行,隨緣而適。
Deep down I must have always known
其實我已知
That is would be inevitable
萬事皆註定
To earn my stripes I'd have to pay
刑發之間
And bear my soul
浮生漣漪,心神不寧
I know I'm not the only one
芸芸衆生,非我一人
Who regrets the things they've done
心懷愧疚,抱憾終身
Sometimes I just feel it's only me
忽而頓覺,只我一人
Who can stand the reflections that they see 情堪回首,悠悠我心
I wish I could live a little more
唯有希冀,贈我時日
Look up to the sky, not just the floor
仰天遠眺,放下執念。
I feel like my life is flashing by
人生匆匆,無力追回
And all I can do is watch and cry
任其流逝,黯然心悲
I miss the air, I miss my friends
念舊日,思故友
I miss my mother; I miss it when
憶慈母,追流年
Life was a party to be thrown
人生曾繁華如是
But that was a million years ago
恰在燈火闌珊時
When I walk around all of the streets
漫步街頭,舊地重遊
Where I grew up and found my feet
成長記憶,涌上心頭。
They can't look me in the eye
時過境遷,無人回眸
It's like they're scared of me
奈何心門,都懼來扣
I try to think of things to say
勁回想與閒聊
Like a joke or a memory
趣談抑或往事
But they don't recognize me now
所視之處,物是人非
In the light of day
豔陽正當時
I know I'm not the only one
芸芸衆生,非我一人
Who regrets the things they've done
心懷愧疚,抱憾終身。
Sometimes I just feel it's only me
忽而頓覺,只我一人
Who never became who they thought they'd be 漸行漸遠,遺忘初心
I wish I could live a little more
唯有希冀,贈我時日。
Look up to the sky, not just the floor
仰天遠眺,放下執念。
I feel like my life is flashing by
人生匆匆,無力追回
And all I can do is watch and cry
任其流逝,黯然心悲
I miss the air, I miss my friends
念舊日,思故友
I miss my mother; I miss it when
憶慈母,追流年
Life was a party to be thrown
人生曾繁華如是
But that was a million years ago
恰在燈火闌珊時
A million years ago
燈火闌珊時
