vicissitudes　-滄桑-

作者：湛澄

我所知道的來自愛爾蘭的女歌手有兩位：
Méav 和 Cara Dillon，
今天推薦她們兩首比較憂傷的歌，
一首古老悠遠，一首寂寞蒼涼。

Méav - The Waves of Tory


這首是用傳統愛爾蘭語唱出的，
歌詞充滿懷鄉之情，翻譯成英文是：

To Toraigh na dtonn(=Tory of the waves) I am making my way
Over rolling waves, washed with salty spray
The seabirds skim the surging foam
And call from the island a welcome home

Leap, then, oh boat, with joy toward the sky
And cry out, you gulls, that circle now on high
And carry, oh wind, the word across to shore
And bear home the news of returning once more

To Thoraigh na dtonn(=Tory of the waves) I am pulling in
In my eyes there is hope, in my heart there is courage
Because I see my first love awaiting my coming
And we will never be parted again
　
　
－－Méav 用的唱腔有點接近美聲，
增強整首的古意。
　
　
至於 Cara Dillon 的 The Snows They Melt The Soonest，
古典氣息比較沒那麼濃厚，卻多了幾分寂寥和淒冷，
很適合在冬天聽。
　

　
The snows they melt the soonest when the winds begin to sing
The corn it ripens fastest when the frosts are setting in
And when the young man tells me that my face he'll soon forget
Before we part, I wage a crown, he's fain to follow't yet

The snows they melt the soonest when the winds begin to sing
The swallows fly without a thought as long as it is spring
But when spring goes, and winter blows, my love, then you'll be free
For all your pride to follow me across the raging main

The snows they melt the soonest when the winds begin to sing
And the bee that flew when summer shone, in winter cannot sting
I've seen the young man's anger melt between the night and morn
so it's surely not a harder thing to melt a young man's scorn

So don't you bid me farewell here, no farewell I'll receive
For you will lie with me my love and kiss and take your leave
And I'll wait here 'til the moorcock calls and the martin takes the wind
For the snows they melt the soonest when the winds begin to sing
