澳洲英语歌你都听懂了吗?--来翻歌词吧

在澳大利亚英语学习




很多好听的歌,都可以哼调子了,其实很多人对它本意的理解却是模模糊糊的。

很多英文歌不光曲很动人,词也是如诗般,或意境深远,或简单而深入人心。 

不如一起来完整的翻译一些英语歌吧,包括它的背景,引申含意等等等

就从The wind of change - Scorpions 开始吧

The wind of change - Scorpions

I follow the Moskva
Down to Gorky Park
Listening to the wind of change
An August summer night
Soldiers passing by
Listening to the wind of change

The world closing in
Did you ever think
That we could be so close,like brothers
The future's in the air
I can feel it everywhere
Blowing with the wind of change

Chorus:
Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow dream away
In the wind of change

Walking down the street
Distant memories
Are buried in the past forever

I fallow the Moskva
Down to Gorky Park
Listening to the wind of change

Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow share their dreams
With you and me

Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow dream away
In the wind of change

The wind of change blows straight
Into the face of time
Like a stormwind that will ring
The freedom bell for peace of mind
Let your balalaika sing
What my guitar wants to say

Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow share their dreams
With you and me

Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow dream away
In the wind of change

接着 Building A Mystery - Sarah McLachlan

http://youtu.be/4e3ANfZ7RR4

You come out at night
That's when the energy comes
And the dark side's light
And the vampires roam
You strut your rasta wear
And your suicide poem
And a cross from a faith that died
Before Jesus came
You're building a mystery

You live in a church
Where you sleep with voodoo dolls
And you won't give up the search
For the ghosts in the halls
You wear sandals in the snow
And a smile that won't wash away
Can you look out the window
Without your shadow getting in the way?

You're so beautiful
With an edge and charm
but so careful
When I'm in your arms

Cause you're working
Building a mystery
Holding on and holding it in
Yeah you're working
Building a mystery
And choosing so carefully

You woke up screaming aloud
A prayer from your secret god
You feed off our fears
And hold back your tears, oh
Give us a tantrum
And a know it all grin
Just when we need one
When the evening's thin

You're a beautiful
A beautiful ed up man
You're setting up your
Razor wire shrine

Cause you're working
Building a mystery
Holding on and holding it in
Yeah you're working
Building a mystery
And choosing so carefully

Ooh you're working
Building a mystery
Holding on and holding it in
Yeah you're working
Building a mystery
And choosing so carefully

Yeah you're working
Building a mystery
Holding on and holding it in
Yeah you're working
Building a mystery
And choosing so carefully

You're building a mystery

那上面就是说我自己呢,我英语不是很好(其实中文也不是很好,呵呵),常常要咬着牙很使劲去琢磨来理解一首歌。不过常常是理解之后更喜欢了,因为更能够真正感受了。


期待各位高手来加入!!

创这个贴很久了,  今天我以Damien Rice的 Cannonball 起头吧:

平铺返复的吉它旋律, 带出唱者的面对爱的不敢确认.
很喜欢这个旋律, 很容易让人在心里附和着

我的水平有限, 可能有很多错误, 请大家批评指正.

There’s still a little bit of you laced with my doubt

There’s still a little bit of your ghost your witness
可以看穿你的灵魂或是你来做一下确证就好了

就如你的脸 还有我没吻过的地方 (所以我不能确认)
You step a little closer each day
每天你都离我更近了
That I can′t say what′s going on
而我还不能确定这意味着什么

Stones taught me to fly

Stones taught me to fly
石头扔出去就回不来

So come on courage, teach me to be shy

Wind of Change旋律百听不厌,高尔基公园?应该跟前苏联,冷战时期的历史有关吧,查了一下,确实是。
The lyrics celebrate glasnost in the Soviet Union, the end of the Cold War, and speaks of hope at a time when tense conditions had arisen due to the fall of Communist-run governments among Eastern Bloc nations beginning in 1989.
The Scorpions were inspired to write the song on a visit to Moscow in 1989,and the opening lines refer to the city's landmarks:
