Mary Hopkin-Those Were the Days



這是一首經歷過成長才能體會的歌,一首六零年代英國女歌手的經典老歌;因為值得推薦,我才會野人獻曝地寫出自己的翻譯。

Mary Hopkin-Those Were the Days
瑪莉霍普金-曾有那麼一段日子

Once upon a time there was a tavern
從前從前  有個酒館
Where we used to raise a glass or two
我們曾在那銜殤小酌
Remember how we laughed away the hours
猶記我們如何嘻笑度日
And dreamed of all the great things we would do
夢想我們將要幹的大事

Those were the days my friend
曾有那麼一段日子,吾友
We thought they'd never end
我們曾以為它永遠不會結束
We'd sing and dance forever and a day
我們會載歌載舞  直到永遠
We'd live the life we choose
我們會過著自己選擇的人生
We'd fight and never lose
我們會戰無不勝
For we were young and sure to have our way.
因當時我們年少輕狂  意氣風發
 La la la la la la la la la la...

Then the busy years went rushing by us
接著歲月匆匆從身邊飛逝
We lost our starry notions on the way
一路上我們遺失了不切實際的奇想
If by chane I'd see you in the tavern
若有機會於酒館中重逢
We'd smile at one another and we'd say
我們會相視而笑  並且說

Those were the days my friend
曾有那麼一段日子,吾友
We thought they'd never end
我們曾以為它永遠不會結束
We'd sing and dance forever and a day
我們會載歌載舞  直到永遠
We'd live the life we choose
我們會過著自己選擇的人生
We'd fight and never lose
我們會戰無不勝
Those were the days, oh yes those were the days
曾有那麼一段日子,噢,沒錯,曾有過那麼一段日子啊...
La la la la...

Just tonight I stood before the tavern
就在今夜  我站在酒館之前
Nothing seemed the way it used to be
事過境遷  人事已非
In the glass I saw a strange reflection
酒杯中  我看到一抹陌生倒影
Was that lonely woman really me
那個孑然一身的女人  真的是我嗎?

Those were the days my friend
曾有那麼一段日子,吾友
We thought they'd never end
我們曾以為它永遠不會結束
We'd sing and dance forever and a day
我們會載歌載舞  直到永遠
We'd live the life we choose
我們會過著自己選擇的人生
We'd fight and never lose
我們會戰無不勝
Those were the days, oh yes those were the days
曾有那麼一段日子,噢,沒錯,曾有過那麼一段日子啊...
La la la la la la la la la la...

Through the door there came familiar laughter
門外傳來一陣熟悉的笑聲
I saw your face and heard you call my name
我看見你的臉  聽見你叫我的名字
 Oh my friend we're older but no wiser
吾友啊  我們長了年紀  卻沒長智慧
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same
因我們心中的夢想  至今仍然沒變

Those were the days my friend
曾有那麼一段日子,吾友
We thought they'd never end
我們曾以為它永遠不會結束
We'd sing and dance forever and a day
我們會載歌載舞  直到永遠
We'd live the life we choose
我們會過著自己選擇的人生
We'd fight and never lose
我們會戰無不勝
Those were the days, oh yes those were the days
曾有那麼一段日子,噢,沒錯,曾有過那麼一段日子啊...
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la...
