father and son
第一次听到这首歌,我就把它理解为父亲一个人的独述,而非很多人通认的对白。
多少次眼泪流向歌词和旋律的海洋,飞溅出的水珠溅满了脸庞。
父亲独白:
It's not time to make a change,
Just relax, take it easy.
You're still young, that's your fault,
There's so much you have to know.
Find a girl, settle down,
If you want you can marry.
Look at me, I am old, but I'm happy.
现在去改变已经太晚了,
放松下来,放慢生活。
你还依然太年轻,如果说你有什么缺陷的话,这一定算是一个。
你需要知道的还有很多,时间都会慢慢告诉你。
找个女孩,定下来,当然你也可以跟她结婚。
看看我,我虽然这么老了都没结婚,但是我过的很开心。
I was once like you are now, and I know that it's not easy,
To be calm when you've found something going on.
But take your time, think a lot,
Why, think of everything you've got.
For you will still be here tomorrow, but your dreams may not.
我曾经年轻过,所以我知道有时候,
当有些事情发生,真的很难控制住自己。
但是你有时间,慢慢来,多想想,
想想你为什么要去做一件事,
想想你现在所拥有的一切,
去考虑你是想永远拥有,还是可以放下一些。
因为你会一直生活下去,但你的梦想也许不会。
How can I try to explain, cause when I do it turns away again.
It's always been the same, same old story.
From the moment I could talk I was ordered to listen.
Now there's a way and I know that I have to go away.
I know I have to go.
我该怎样试着去解释人生之多艰:
当我每一次追求所想,人生却再一次背离我,
人生总是这样一次、一次、又一次的背离我。
自从我在摇篮里学会说话的那一刻起,我就被要求去听,
这种对自我的背离,我已经体验太多。
后来,我面前出现了一条路,
那是怎样一条追求自我的路啊,
我知道我一定会走下去。
It's not time to make a change,
Just sit down, take it slowly.
You're still young, that's your fault,
There's so much you have to go through.
Find a girl, settle down,
if you want, you can marry.
Look at me, I am old, but I'm happy.
现在去改变也许还早,
你还年轻,这是你的命门,但是你可以慢慢来。
你未来要经历的还有很多,
可以先找个女孩,定下来,或者结婚,
我垂垂老矣,但是回顾一生,我过的总是开心的。
All the times that I cried, keeping all the things I knew inside,
It's hard, but it's harder to ignore it.
If they were right, I'd agree, but it's them they know not me.
Now there's a way and I know that I have to go away.
I know I have to go.
我曾一次次的陷入困境,痛苦而痛哭。
追求内心的旅程注定是艰难的,
但是对我来说,忽视内心、摒弃自我 更加难。
每个人都有自己的人生,
我知道他们走的路也是对的。
但是他们是他们,不是我。
后来我走了自己的路,跟别人的路都不太一样。
我知道我会一直走下去。
多少次眼泪流向歌词和旋律的海洋,飞溅出的水珠溅满了脸庞。
