鴉之語

昨夜難得做了一場奇怪的夢，
夢境中漫畫店的老闆娘偽裝成麵店老闆，
還跟我的一位帥哥朋友合起來罵我，
真讓我心碎。
唉～

不過昨天卻也收到從北京的來信，
是雲南之行認識的一位帥哥。
開心的不只是帥哥的信，還有他說的一句話。
他看著我Email的ID而聯想到一句歌詞
那是電影「真善美」當中的片段。
整首歌都像詩一般的優雅。
因為這樣的恭維（人家有恭維你嗎？），
讓我回憶起整部電影和音樂。
那就和大家分享其中幾首歌吧。
我很努力的把歌詞打上，還認真嘗試做了點翻譯，
希望能夠讓更多讀者方便閱讀、聆聽。
也期盼大家喜歡。
翻得不好（意境是翻譯中最難過門的），請雅正、見諒。
他形容的就是以下這首歌。
至於是哪一句歌詞想到我，你猜囉。


 

The Sound of Music
The hills are alive with the sound of music. 山巒因著樂之聲而有了生命，
With songs they have sung for a thousand years. 隨著歌聲靜靜地傳頌千年如新。
The hills fill my heart with the sound of music. 我的心田充溢著山中樂音，
My heart wants to sing every song it hears.我渴望唱出的美妙合音亦如我所聆聽。
My heart wants to beat like the wings. 心的跳動，就像是小鳥的顫動雙翅，
Of the birds that rise from the lake to the trees. 從湖面飛躍到樹林。
My heart wants to sigh like a chime that flies, 我的心忍不住嘆息，
from a church on a breeze. 猶如教堂上的鐘聲隨風搖曳～
To laugh like a brook when it trips and falls, 笑聲彷彿是在水道中嬉鬧的小溪，
Over stones on its way. 因為石頭絆倒、滑落。
To sing through the night, 徹夜歌詠的旋律，
like a lark who is learning to pray. 如同雀兒學習著晚禱的唱吟。
I go to the hills when my heart is lonely, 當我寂寞的時候，我就回抱山林，
I know I will hear what I've heard before. 我知曉我又能重溫那熟悉的聲音。
My heart will be blessed with the sound of music, 這樂聲伴隨祝福緩緩洗滌我的心靈，
And I'll sing once more. 而我的歌聲也將永不止息。

接下來是當中一首由修女阿姨們合唱的歌。
唱盡對這孩子（主角）的疼愛與無奈，
我真希望我有主角這樣的個性，從來就不是～
質地美好的璞玉。
