孤单,是一群人的狂欢;狂欢,是一个人的孤单。我们似乎拥有很多朋友,可是,夜深人静,一人独处的时候,又有谁可以依靠与倾诉,我们都是孤独的灵魂。 Hello,everyone!欢迎收听爱语吧听歌学英语栏目,I’m Leo。 今天为大家带来的这首歌是来自于NANA的《LONELY》,全球点击率最高的一首歌曲,震撼心灵的不朽之作!这首LONELY是他最著名,也是最感人的作品之一。 下面就跟Leo 一起欣赏这首孤独的呐喊《Lonely》by Nana Excitin’ and amazin’ havin’ a real friend of mine Feel my heartbeat and for real friend of mine Face to face and eye to eye Usin’ our hands to buy and supply Chillin’ is cool from January to June And we still stiked together like the glue And know the rules Forever you and I and believe it was clear If I ever should fall I could count on you with no fear Face to face and eye to eye 面对面的眼神交流 eye to eye表示“眼神交流”,这里为大家补充一个与 eye to eye 相关的短语,就是see eye to eye with someone,跟某人的看法完全一致, 例如:We’ve never seen eye to eye on this matter. 关于这件事我们的看法从来都不一致。 此外为大家补充一个结构类似的短语:an eye for an eye 意思是“一报还一报,以眼还眼” 例如:The days of an eye for an eye are over.以眼还眼的时代已经过去了。 If I ever should fall I could count on you with no fear 如果我跌倒,我并不害怕,还有你可依靠 count on :“依靠”,与这个词组有相近意思的是depend on, depend on :依赖、依靠、指望、取决于”。,使用较广,指凭借或依靠某人或某物的支持和帮助才能生存或成功。 例如:All living things depend on / upon the sun for their growth.万物靠太阳生长。 count on :“侧重指“依靠”、“指望”某人或某物”。语气比depend on 强,对期待的人或事愿望强烈,充满信心。 例如:The team was counting on Dick to win the match.这个队全指望迪克取得这次竞赛的胜利。 Cheepin’ thru the streets at night after a fuss and fight Tears in my eyes I’m a man lookin’ for the light Dark is the path I know he will rescue me The lord is my shephard I’m cool despite emergency Whom shall I fear exept the god Thank you for the blessin’ and the skills on the mic Five years we know there’s no dignity Free at last see the light in me What goes up must come down I’ll be around while you heading towards deathtown Always look forward hardly never look back So many tears and the snakes on my jock Dark is the path I know he will rescue me 黑暗是必经之路,上帝会拯救我 rescue:v.“营救,救援”,rescue 和 save,均有'营救,拯救,搭救'之意。 rescue :多指营救某人脱离紧迫的危险。 例如:He had rescued her from a horrible life。他把她从可怕的生活中解救了出来。 save : 含义广泛,既可指营救某人使脱离危险,也可指精神或道德上的拯救。 例如:The scanner will save risk and pain for patients.扫描仪将使病人免遭风险和痛苦。 The lord is my shepherd I’m cool despite emergency 他就是我的领路人 虽然急迫但我内心依然冷静 shepherd, n.“牧羊人”,同时也有“带领人,指路人”的意思,这里Nana把自己比喻成了迷途的羔羊,等待“牧羊人”也就是上帝的指引,跟圣经故事有关。 cool在这里用作形容词表示“不慌不忙的,冷静的”,在做形容词修饰人时,为大家补充几个同义词,希望大家可以区分记忆:就是peaceful,quiet,silent。 peaceful表示“安详的,温和的” 例如:The teacher is peaceful when the student appeared.当这个学生出现时,这个老师很温和。 quiet指性情温和、安静等,有时也指人的闲散或不活动。 例如:We should keep quiet in the hospital.在医院里我们应该保持安静。 silent侧重“沉默”“不说话”, 例如:She sat silent in her own room.她在自己的房间里一动不动地坐着。 To survive your life is yours my life is mine No emotions in this world full of lies Step my step and be versatile Love peace and crash that’s what it’s all about Alone by yourself than you lack there’s no doubt about I’m always into something making moves to improve What would you do if you where in my shoes Boom a letter oops another suicide Meet me for a ride at the boulevard Nana’s in the house to let you know What I see is how I feel and damn I’m always into something making moves to improve 我总是专注一件事情,努力改进 be into something,表示“对某事物很感兴趣,对某事很专注”,就相当于 very interested in something or someone 歌词中就可以写成:I’m very interested in something making moves to improve What would you do if you where in my shoes 如果你是我你会怎么办 be in one’s shoes 或者put oneself in one’s shoes 这个习语表示“处于某人的境地或处境来设想”, 我们大家比较熟悉的是stand in one’s shoes,站在某人的立场上设想。 例如:You wouldn’t do that if you stood in my shoes. 如果你是我的话,你也不会那么做的。 在这首歌曲中,爱情的失败,世事的的无奈,人与人之间的勾心斗角,都被他赤裸裸的展露在你面前。动情处的伤心呐喊,颓废时的无奈低吟,与节奏布鲁斯,跳舞音乐,HIP HOP结合地天衣无缝。 这首说唱歌曲《Lonely》,加入了R&B和Blues的曲风,加上歌曲中女声的伴唱,旋律非常优美,是不可多得的佳作。 |
