节目音乐：Once upon a Time by Michael Dulin Phenomenal Woman 非凡的女人 作者：Maya Angelou
Pretty women wonder where my secret lies. I’m not cute or built to suit a fashion model’s size But when I start to tell them, They think I’m telling lies. 大家都想知道我的秘诀。 我并不娇小可爱,也没有模特儿的身材。 当我开始款款道来, 他们却以为我在说谎。 I say, It’s in the reach of my arms, The span of my hips, The stride of my step, The curl of my lips. I’m a woman Phenomenally. Phenomenal woman, That’s me.
我说, 秘诀在于我伸展的双臂, 丰满的臀部, 行走的步态, 撅起的嘴唇。 我是女人, 脱颖非凡。 I walk into a room Just as cool as you please, And to a man, The fellows stand or Fall down on their knees. Then they swarm around me, A hive of honey bees. 我步入房间, 泰然若素, 走向一男士, 其同伴或欣然旁立 或拜倒在我的裙下。 如狂蜂浪蝶 簇拥我身边。 I say, It’s the fire in my eyes, And the flash of my teeth, The swing in my waist, And the joy in my feet. I’m a woman Phenomenally. Phenomenal woman, That’s me.
我说, 秘诀在于我双眸燎燃, 皓齿闪亮, 腰肢扭动, 步履轻盈。 我是女人, 脱颖非凡。 Men themselves have wondered What they see in me. They try so much But they can’t touch My inner mystery. When I try to show them, They say they still can’t see. 男士们也心生困惑, 无法解释眼中的我。 他们努力寻觅, 但却无法触及 我内心的秘密。 我尝试向他们展现, 他们仍然无法窥见。 I say, It’s in the arch of my back, The sun of my smile, The ride of my breasts, The grace of my style. I’m a woman Phenomenally. Phenomenal woman, That’s me.
我说, 秘诀在于我背影婀娜, 笑容灿烂, 双峰挺立, 举止优雅。 我是女人, 脱颖非凡。
Now you understand Just why my head’s not bowed. I don’t shout or jump about Or have to talk real loud. When you see me passing, It ought to make you proud. 现在你们该明白 为何我不头颅低垂, 狂吼乱跳, 或高谈叫嚣。 你若目睹我走过, 定会尤感骄傲。 I say, It’s in the click of my heels, The bend of my hair, the palm of my hand, The need for my care. ’Cause I’m a woman Phenomenally. Phenomenal woman, That’s me. 我说, 秘诀在于我鞋跟轻踏, 秀发微卷, 指掌轻抚, 心细如尘。 因为我是女人, 脱颖非凡。 关于作者 玛雅·安吉罗 Maya Angelou 玛雅.安吉罗是全世界最励志最了不起的女人之一。她三岁父母离异，七岁半被母亲的男友强暴，16岁做脱衣舞女，17岁成为单身母亲。这些都还不是最艰难的部分，难处在于她是一个贫民窟的黑人小女孩，而且成长在黑人受尽岐视和屈辱的年代。但她最终成为一个著作等身的诗人、作家、导演、教授。不但获奖无数，而且是推动民权的代表人物之一。但所谓励志的部分在于：无论世俗怎么束缚、怎么阻碍，都永远努力让自己更丰富、更幸福，笑得阳光灿烂。就像她写的诗《Still I rise》里的句子：“你们可以将我践踏成尘，但我仍会像尘埃一样上升”。在孤独与黑暗里，自己给自己力量，自己为自己鼓掌。 |
