十三岁的女儿和我一样什么都喜欢玩一玩,上星期在学校音乐会上她表演了两首自己创作的钢琴曲,其中一首曲子中她还谱了一段很优美的歌,她自弹自唱很有些意思。下面就是她为这首歌写的歌词。英语不是很规范,是那种青少年式的,有的地方为了match the music, 不得不拿掉一些。
[B]《Among the Orchids ~ Movement 2 ~ Windfall》[/B]
Once upon a stolen dream
The skies were full of golden wishes
As of angels perfect seam
From the stars came tender kisses
Twice within a crystal world
A heart will touch its only love
The first to lavish and to guild
Again to break and not rebuild
Three is the number of elaborate disaster
Four is the number of those who lead
Five is the number of lust and greed
But one is the number of today, tomorrow; him and her; here and after
Twelve is a sign of sleeping souls
Of tiny things — the black and white
Twelve is the time when darkness falls
Of swans and doves — my perfect night
Walking through the broken meadow
I run my finger across its petals
Full of broken hearts and widows
Wings of angels, horns of devils
Walking in the ebony waters
Has Alice ’her Wonderland ever wondered
How things here seem to be quieter?
And under the twilight I say this
Over it you may reminisce
People say that love’s a crime
Seraphs say that it’s a gift
Devils think the least of it
All in once upon a time
