忙碌的工作状态一直在持续。工作和生活是有所不同的。我一直认为现代的工作模式很像是滚轮里的小白鼠。正常人会有需要break的时刻,但是工作少有pause键。也或许自古以来的工作就是如此。 忙碌自然有忙碌的好处。抛开经济收益不说,忙碌意味着充实,充实好过空虚。当然不忙并不代表一定空虚。另外,适当的忙碌有利于提升效率。 我一直很喜欢唐代诗人李涉的《题鹤林寺僧舍》。 终日昏昏醉梦间, 忽闻春尽强登山。 因过竹院逢僧话, 偷得浮生半日闲。 尤其是最后一句“偷得浮生半日闲”。而这样的快乐只有在忙碌中可以感受到。如果终日无所事事,自然没有闲适一说。 这个周末过得依旧相当充实,可以说是工作和生活两不误。既然是周末,自然要做点“不务正业”的文艺事情。上一次,大半夜地翻译了一首自己喜欢的歌曲。 Glimpse of Us | Is this a part of your story? 这一次,要做同样的事情。有些歌一听到就非得知道歌名不可,否则会变成“意难平”。好在现在科技发达,否则只能像以前一样靠着听力去记歌词。如果遇到中文和英文以外的歌就只能作罢,空叹缘分太浅。 这首Losin' Sleep已经听了有一段时间,仍在“蜜月期”。于是决定忙里偷闲翻译歌词。我的版本和原文不一定完全对照,肯定是充斥个人色彩的。作为译者,且在自己的公众号里,自认为拥有这么一点任性和自由的权力。从没想过让所有人满意,终究是自得其乐的一件事情。表达自己,让少数读者有所采撷和共鸣,足矣。 Losin' Sleep by: David Archuleta/Nate Dodge/ Joe Tounge/Cardin McKinney I been losing sleep over you 我因为你而失眠 Nothing works for me no matter what I do 无论我做什么都无济于事 You been living rent-free in my head 你霸道地侵占着我的大脑 Now I'm tossing turning in my queen-sized bed 如今我在双人床上辗转反侧 Maybe I was in too deep that's on me 或许是我陷得太深,这是我的错 You used to be the one that gave me peace but 曾经你是那个施予我平静的人 Now I'm losing sleep over you 如今,我因为你而失眠 Mmh mmh mmh mmh Another night another week 又一个晚上,又一个星期 Red eyes staring at a screen 红着眼盯着屏幕 All the stupid scrolling ain't gonna help me close 'em 傻傻地滑动屏幕,却不想关闭 And I know it yeah I know it 我知道,我都知道 So I turn off my phone and hit the melatonin 于是关掉手机,吞下褪黑素 Turn the lights off on my nightstand yeah I'm hoping 关掉床头灯,奢望着 That I can get some rest 我可以休息一会儿 But I won't hold my breath 但我不会屏住呼吸 I been losing sleep over you 我因为你而失眠 Nothing works for me no matter what I do 无论我做什么都无济于事 You been living rent-free in my head 你霸道地侵占着我的大脑 Now I'm tossing turning in my queen-sized bed 如今我在双人床上辗转反侧 Maybe I was in too deep that's on me 或许是我陷得太深,这是我的错 You used to be the one that gave me peace but 曾经你是那个施予我平静的人 Now I'm losing sleep over you 如今,我因为你而失眠 Mmh mmh mmh mmh Now I'm losing my mind my time 我正在失去我的理智,我的时间 Stuck here thinking maybe girl you really were 如困兽般想着,或许你离开我是真得对了 Right to leave me now it's eating me alive 这个想法几乎将我活剥生吞 Hate being alone and too much melatonin 厌恶寂寞和过多的褪黑素 You won't hit me back 'cause we ain't even friend-zoning 你再也不会回电,因为我们甚至一家不是朋友了 Wish I could get some rest yeah 奢望着,我可以休息一会儿 But I won't hold my breath 但我不会屏住呼吸 I been losing sleep over you 我因为你而失眠 Nothing works for me no matter what I do 无论我做什么都无济于事 You been living rent-free in my head 你霸道地侵占着我的大脑 Now I'm tossing turning in my queen-sized bed 如今我在双人床上辗转反侧 Maybe I was in too deep that's on me 或许是我陷得太深,这是我的错 You used to be the one that gave me peace but 曾经你是那个施予我平静的人 Now I'm losing sleep over you 如今,我因为你而失眠 Mmh mmh mmh mmh Turn off the phone and hit the melatonin 关掉手机,吞下褪黑素 Turn the lights off on my nightstand yeah I'm hoping 关掉床头灯,奢望着 That I can get some rest 我可以休息一会儿 But I won't hold my breath 但我不会屏住呼吸 I been losing my sleep over you 我因为你而失眠 I been losing sleep over you 我因为你而失眠 Mmh mmh mmh mmh 文/Luna 图/Luna 风格/秀米 |
