第9章 英文歌曲(2)

So we put in words. One word for every note. Like this.

When you know the notes to sing

You can sing most anything

Together!

When you know the notes to sing

You can sing most anything

Doe, a deer, a female deer

Ray, a drop of golden sun

Me, a name I call myself

Far, a long, long way to run

Sew, a needle pulling thread

La, a note to follow Sew

Tea, a drink with jam and bread

That will bring us back to Do

Do Re Mi Fa So La Ti Do

Do Ti La So Fa Mi Re

Do Mi Mi

Mi So So

Re Fa Fa

La Ti Ti

When you know the notes to sing

You can sing most anything

Doe, a deer, a female deer

Ray, a drop of golden sun

Me, a name I call myself

Far, a long, long way to run

Sew, a needle pulling thread

La, a note to follow Sew

Tea, a drink with jam and bread

That will bring us back to

哆来咪

让我们从头开始

一个很好的开端

当你学念书你要先学abc

当你唱歌你要先学do re mi

Do-re-mi, do-re-mi

正好是前三个音符

Do-re-mi, do-re-mi

[Maria:]

Do-re-mi-fa-so-la-ti

[说]

让我们看看我能不能让它容易些

doe,一头鹿,一头小母鹿

ray,一线金色的阳光

me是我在叫自己

far要跑很远很远的路

sew是针儿穿着线

la是跟着sew来的音符

tea,喝茶加面包和果酱

这把我们又带回do

[Maria and Children:]

[重复以上两次]

[Maria:]

Do-re-mi-fa-so-la-ti-do

So-do!

[Maria:(说)]

现在孩子们,do re mi fa so等我们用来构成歌曲的唯一工具一旦你学会这些音符

你就可以通过把它们组合起来,唱出亿万首不同的歌比如:

So Do La Fa Mi Do Re

[Children:]

So Do La Fa Mi Do Re

[Maria:]

So Do La Ti Do Re Do

[Children:]So Do La Ti Do Re Do

[Maria and Children:]

So Do La Fa Mi Do Re, So Do La Ti Do Re Do

[Maria:]

[说]

所以我们就添上歌词,一个音一个字

像这样

当你知道这些歌唱的音符

你将可以唱出几乎所有东西[说]

一起来

[Maria and Children:]

当你知道这些歌唱的音符

你将唱出几乎所有东西

二、流行歌曲Pop Music

1.Yesterday Once More

—The Carpenters

When I was young

I'd listen to the radio

Waiting for my favorite songs

When they played I'd sing alone It made me smile

Those were such happy times

And not so long ago

How I wondered where they'd gone

But they're back again

Just like a long?lost friend

All the songs I loved so well

Every Sha?la?la?la

Every Wo?o?wo?o

Still shines

Every shing?a?ling?a?ling

That they're starting to sing

So fine

When they get to the part

Where he's breaking her heart It can really make me cry

Just like before

It's yesterday once more

(Shoobie do lang lang)(Shoobie

do lang lang) Looking back

on how it was in years gone byAnd the good times that I had Makes today seem rather sad

So much has changed

It was songs of love that I would sing to then

And I memorize each word

Those old melodies

Still sound so good to me

As they melt the years away

Every Sha-la-la-la

Every Wo-o-wo-o

Still shines

Every shing-a-ling-a-ling

That they're starting to sing

So fine

All my best memories

Come back clearly to me

Some can even make me cry Just like before

It's yesterday once more

Every Sha-la-la-la

Every Wo-o-wo-o

Still shines

Every shing-a-ling-a-ling

That they're starting to sing So fine

Every Sha-la-la-la

Every Wo-o-wo-o

Still shines

Every shing-a-ling-a-ling

That they're starting to sing So fine

昨日重现——小红莓当我年轻时

我喜欢听收音机

等待我最喜爱的歌

当他们演奏时我会跟着唱

令我笑容满面

那段多么快乐的时光

不那么久以前

我是多么想知道它们去了哪儿

但是它们又回来了

像一位久未谋面的朋友

那些歌我依旧喜欢

每一声Sha-la-la-la

每一声Wo-o-wo-o

仍然闪亮

每一声shing-a-ling-a-ling

当他们开始唱时

如此欢畅

当他们唱到

他让她伤心的那一段

真的令我哭了

一如往昔

这是昨日的重现

(无比惆怅

无比惆怅)

回首过去的几年

我曾有过的欢乐时光

今天似乎更加悲伤

一切都变了

这就是那些跟着唱过的旧情歌

我记住的每个字眼

那些古老旋律

对我仍然那么动听

可以把岁月融化

每一声Sha-la-la-la

每一声Wo-o-wo-o

仍然闪亮

每一声shing-a-ling-a-ling

当他们开始唱时

如此欢畅

我所有的美好回忆

清晰地浮现

有些令我哭了

一如往昔

这是昨日的重现

每一声Sha-la-la-la

每一声Wo?o?wo?o

仍然闪亮

每一声shing-a-ling-a-ling

当他们开始唱时

如此欢畅

每一声Sha-la-la-la

每一声Wo-o-wo-o

仍然闪亮

每一声shing-a-ling-a-ling

当他们开始唱时

如此欢畅

2.Tell Me Why

—Declan Galbraith

In my dream

children sing

a song of love for every boy and girl

The sky is blue and fields are green

and laughter is the language of the world

Then I wake and all I see

is a world full of people in need

[Tell me why(why)

does it have to be like this

Tell me why(why)

is there something I have missed

Tell me why(why)]

cos I don't understand

when so many need somebody we don't give a helping hand

Tell me why

Every day

I ask myself

what will I have to do to be a man

Do I have to stand and fight

to prove to everybody who I am Is that what my life is far

to waste in a world full of war

Repeat[...]part

Tell me why(Tell me why)

Tell me why(Tell me why)

Just tell me why!

Tell me why(why)

does it have to be like this

Tell me why(why)

is there something I have missed

Tell me why(why)

cos I don't understand

when so many need somebody we don't give a helping hand

Tell me why(Why why does the tiger fun)

Tell me why(Why why do we shoot the gun)

Tell me why(Why why do we never learn)

Can someone tell us why we let the forest burn

(Why why do we say we care) Tell me why(Why why do we stand and stare)

Tell me why(Why why do the dolphins cry)
