【Westlife - Seasons In The Sun】

中英歌词:

Goodbye to you my trusted friend
We've known each other since we were nine or ten
Together we've climbed hills and trees
Learned of love and ABC's
Skinned our hearts and skinned our knees
再见了,我的挚友
我们从孩提时就已相识相知
我们一起爬山爬树
学会爱和其他基本知识
擦破了膝盖,也打破了心灵间的障碍

Goodbye my friend it's hard to die
When all the birds are singing in the sky
Now that spring is in the air
Pretty girls are everywhere
Think of me and I'll be there
再见了朋友,我也不愿离去
当所有的鸟儿都在天空歌唱时
空气中弥漫着春天的气息
漂亮的女孩到处可见
想起我,我就会回到你身边

We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun
But the hills that we climbed were just seasons out of time
我们有过欢笑有过快乐,也曾共享阳光季节
但我们一起爬过的那些山岭却已成过眼云烟

Goodbye Papa, please pray for me
I was the black sheep of the family 
You tried to teach me right from wrong
Too much wine and too much song
Wonder how I got along
再见了爸爸,请为我祈祷吧
我就是家中叛逆的小孩 
你试图教我分清是非
我却纵酒欢歌空度日
真不知我是如何过来的

Goodbye papa, it's hard to die
When all the birds are singing in the sky
Now that the spring is in the air
Little children are everywhere
When you see them I'll be there
再见了爸爸,我也不愿离去
当所有的鸟儿都在天空歌唱时
空气中弥漫着春天的气息
可爱的孩子到处可见
当你看见他们,我就会在你身边

We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun
But the wine and the song like the seasons have all gone
We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun
But the wine and the song like the seasons have all gone
我们有过欢笑有过快乐,也曾共享阳光季节
但喝过的酒唱过的歌就如季节更迭消逝不见
我们有过欢笑有过快乐,也曾共享阳光季节
但喝过的酒唱过的歌就如季节更迭消逝不见

Goodbye Michelle my little one
You gave me love and helped me find the sun
And every time that I was down
You would always come around
And get my feet back on the ground
再见了米歇尔,我的宝贝
你给我的爱让我找到阳光
每当我沮丧时
你总会来到我身边
让我重新振作起来

Goodbye Michelle it's hard to die
When all the birds are singing in the sky
Now that the spring is in the air
With the flowers everywhere
I wish that we could both be there
再见了米歇尔,我也不愿离去
当所有的鸟儿都在天空歌唱时
空气中弥漫着春天的气息
美丽的花朵到处可见
希望我能与你同在

We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun
But the hills that we climbed were just seasons out of time
We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun
But the wine and the song like the seasons have all gone
All our lives, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun
But the hills that we climbed were just seasons out of time
We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun
But the wine and the song like the seasons have all gone
我们有过欢笑有过快乐,也曾共享阳光季节
但我们一起爬过的那些山岭却已成过眼云烟
我们有过欢笑有过快乐,也曾共享阳光季节
但喝过的酒唱过的歌就如季节更迭消逝不见
我们有过欢笑有过快乐,也曾共享阳光季节
但我们一起爬过的那些山岭却已成过眼云烟
我们有过欢笑有过快乐,也曾共享阳光季节
但喝过的酒唱过的歌就如季节更迭消逝不见

学单词:

1. Skinned our hearts and skinned our knees
skin: 我们比较熟悉skin作为名词的用法,表示“皮肤”;但歌词中它是作为动词使用,表示“剥开……的皮;擦破皮”。
eg: Add the tomatoes, skinned and sliced. 把土豆削皮切片放进去。

2. Goodbye Papa, please pray for me.
pray: v. 祈祷,祈求;请求,恳求
常用搭配:pray for
eg: pray for God's forgiveness 祈求上帝宽恕

学短语:

1. I was the black sheep of the family.
black sheep: 害群之马,败类,败家子。在这里歌词所表达的意思是指“家庭中叛逆的小孩”,而使用black sheep这个短语,从另一种角度来说更体现了作者对父亲的不舍。

2. You tried to teach me right from wrong.
teach someone right from wrong: 教某人明辨是非,类似的搭配还有tell someone right from wrong。
