Pacing Across The Universe
這幾天莫名其妙地失眠,人有點憔悴,皮膚也變得有點糟糕,頭一直昏昏沉沉,年紀真是大了,經不起折騰。
吃完晚飯回家時不知道為何想起這首歌,這是我最喜歡的披頭四嗎?嗯,也許是,也許不是。但是在這個時候,我就是很想聽這首歌啊!
根據維基百科,這首歌是John Lennon當時的老婆Cynthia有天晚上一直碎碎念某件事情,一直到她上樓睡覺,老婆的聲音還一直迴盪在John的腦海中,讓他想到第一句歌詞:Words are flowing out like endless rain into a paper cup….
真好,碎碎念也可以是寫歌的靈感。
The Beatles
很多電影都拿它當過插曲,像是I Am Sam和Pleasantville,單看電影來說我比較愛Pleasantville,但是我也承認我看I Am Sam的時候跟著掉了不少眼淚。
Rufus Wainwright - I Am Sam OST
Fiona Apple - Pleasantville OST
Across The Universe
Words are flowing out like endless rain into a paper cup,
They slither wildly as they slip away across the universe
Pools of sorrow, waves of joy are drifting through my opened mind,
Possessing and caressing me.
流瀉的話語正如無止盡的細雨,落進紙杯,
狂放地滑走,穿越整個宇宙。
悲傷的池塘,欣喜的水波,正飄過我敞開的心房,
佔據且愛撫著我。
Jai guru deva, om,
永生、導師、天驕、宇宙的律動(梵語)
Nothing’s gonna change my world,
Nothing’s gonna change my world.
Nothing’s gonna change my world.
Nothing’s gonna change my world.
沒什麼能改變我的世界
沒什麼能改變我的世界
沒什麼能改變我的世界
沒什麼能改變我的世界
Images of broken light which dance before me like a million eyes,
They call me on and on across the universe,
Thoughts meander like a restless wind inside a letter box
They tumble blindly as they make their way Across the universe
破碎的光影如百萬雙眼睛,在我面前跳舞,
它們不斷呼喚著我,穿越整個宇宙。
思緒轉折如信箱裡不羈的風,
狂亂地跌宕著,當他們穿越整個宇宙。
Sounds of laughter shades of life are ringing
Through my opened ears inciting and inviting me
Limitless undying Love which shines around me like a million suns,
It calls me on and on Across the universe
歡笑的聲音,生活的陰影,
在我敞開的耳邊響著,慫恿邀請著我,
閃耀在我身邊,無止盡的愛,
像是百萬個太陽,不停呼喚著我,
穿越整個宇宙。
最近有個電影就叫Across The Universe,The Beatles的歌組成的歌舞劇,有點想去看看喔。
