吻別英文版歌詞Take Me to Your Heart文本
Take Me to Your Heart
Michael Learns to Rock
Hiding from the rain and snow (1)
Trying to forget but I won't let go (2)
Looking at a crowded street
Listening to my own heart beat (3)
So many people all around the world
Tell me where do I find someone like you girl
*Take me to your heart take me to your soul (4)
Give me your hand before I'm old
Show me what love is - haven't got a clue (5)
Show me that wonders can be true (6)
They say nothing lasts forever
We're only here today
Love is now or never (7)
Bring me far away
**Take me to your heart take me to your soul
Give me your hand and hold me
Show me what love is, be my guiding star (8)
It's easy, take me to your heart
Standing on a mountain high (9)
Looking at the moon through a clear blue sky
I should go and see some friends
But they don't really comprehend (10)
Don't need too much talking without saying anything
All I need is someone who makes me wanna sing (11)
把我?guī)нM(jìn)你的心
麥克學(xué)搖滾
避開(kāi)雨雪
想要忘記,但又不愿放手
注視擁擠的街道
聆聽(tīng)自己的心跳
世界上那么多人
在哪里才能找到像你這樣的女孩
把我?guī)нM(jìn)你的心靈
在我還沒(méi)有衰老的時(shí)候讓我握你的手
告訴我愛(ài)的真諦--我還對(duì)愛(ài)毫無(wú)概念
讓我看到奇跡可以成真
都說(shuō)沒(méi)有什么是永久的
我們只有今天
愛(ài)是稍縱即逝的機(jī)會(huì)
帶我去遠(yuǎn)方吧
把我?guī)нM(jìn)你的心靈
讓我握你的手,擁抱我
告訴我愛(ài)的真諦,做我的指路明燈
一切都很簡(jiǎn)單,把我?guī)нM(jìn)你的心吧
站在高山上
望著月亮,天空湛藍(lán)
我該去看望看望朋友
但是他們不會(huì)真正理解我的感受
無(wú)話(huà)可說(shuō)就不必多談
我只需要一個(gè)讓我想歌唱的人
要點(diǎn)精講
(1) hide from… 這里的意思是躲避起來(lái)不受……損害/傷害;躲開(kāi)……之義,這里是介詞from的一個(gè)重要的用法,表示不受……危害/影響;避開(kāi)。
It is difficult for stars to hide from paparazzi. 明星們要躲開(kāi)狗仔隊(duì)很困難。
You are always hiding from the truth. 你總是不肯面對(duì)真相。
包含這個(gè)意義的from的常用詞組還有:
protect sb./sth. from… 保護(hù)……不受……的危害
I will protect you from all around you. 我會(huì)保護(hù)你不受周?chē)磺械膫Α?Phil Collins You'll Be in My Heart)
shelter (sb. / sth.) from… 遮蔽/掩護(hù)……不受……的危害/影響
I will keep you safe and strong, and shelter from the storm. 我會(huì)好好保護(hù)你,為你遮蔽風(fēng)雨。(Boyzone No Matter What)
be free from… 不受……(影響,危害等)
The more expensive kind of antique shop where rare objects are beautifully displayed in glass cases to keep them free from dust is usually a forbidding place. 高檔一些的古玩店為了防塵把貨品好看地陳列在玻璃柜中,往往讓人望而卻步。(Lesson 34, New Concept English Book 3)
He, may never be sure where the next meal is coming from, but he is free from the thousands of anxieties which afflict other people. 他(流浪漢)可能不知道下頓飯從何而來(lái),但他不像其他人那樣受到數(shù)不勝數(shù)的煩心事的折磨。(Lesson 27, New Concept English Book 3)
另外請(qǐng)注意,本句歌詞中的hide作不及物動(dòng)詞用,表示躲避,藏身,hide也可以當(dāng)作及物動(dòng)詞來(lái)用,含義是將……隱藏,因此要注意區(qū)別hide from…和hide… from…兩個(gè)詞組,后者表示將……隱藏/掩蓋起來(lái)不讓……看見(jiàn)/發(fā)現(xiàn),例如:
The president hid the truth from the people. 總統(tǒng)向人民隱瞞了真相。
If the landscape is hidden from view, you can enjoy the extraordinary sight of unbroken cloud plains that stretch out for miles before you, while the sun shines brilliantly in a clear sky. 如果地面上的景色被遮住了,可以欣賞展現(xiàn)在面前的延綿數(shù)里的云海,同時(shí)陽(yáng)光燦爛,天空澄清。(Lesson 44, New Concept English Book 3)
(2) let go 放開(kāi),放手,松開(kāi)。經(jīng)常與of搭配
I won't let go. 我不放手。
Let go of me! 放開(kāi)我!
(3) heart beat = heartbeat心跳。beat n.amp;v. 跳動(dòng),搏動(dòng)
My heart is beating faster. 我的心跳在加快。
(4) 英文中heart(心)和soul(靈魂)經(jīng)常連在一起使用,故而有heart and soul這個(gè)詞組,表示全心全意(地),可作名詞或者副詞用。
to serve the people heart and soul 全心全意為人民服務(wù)
You were there in my heart and soul. 你曾在我內(nèi)心深處。(Westlife Let's Make Tonight Special)
(5) haven't (got) a clue = have no idea什么也不知道,毫無(wú)頭緒。clue n. 線(xiàn)索
此處省略了主語(yǔ)I。主語(yǔ)I和it的省略是口語(yǔ)中的一個(gè)常見(jiàn)現(xiàn)象。
Wish you success. = I wish you success.
Have seen that. = I have seen that.
Sounds nice. = It sounds nice.
Doesn't matter. = It doesn't matter.
(6) wonder n. 奇跡,奇妙的事情(可數(shù))
Isn't it a wonder as a newborn baby cries? 新生的嬰兒啼哭的時(shí)候,不是很奇妙么?(Boyzone Isn't It a Wonder)
(7) now or never 字面的意思是要么現(xiàn)在,要么就永遠(yuǎn)都沒(méi)機(jī)會(huì)了,相當(dāng)于中文的成語(yǔ)機(jī)不可失,時(shí)不再來(lái)。
It's my life; it's now or never; I ain't gonna live forever. 這是我的生活,機(jī)會(huì)只有一次,我不會(huì)永生。(Bon Jovi It's My Life)
(8) guiding star 指路的星辰,而中文習(xí)慣用明燈作喻。
(9) mountain high = high mountain為了修辭而故意將定語(yǔ)后置
(10) comprehend v. 理解,領(lǐng)會(huì),了解。名詞形式是comprehension
But you can't even comprehend that it's all in the past. 但是你甚至都不明白這些都已經(jīng)是過(guò)去的事情了。(Nelly Furtado Build You Up)
(11) wanna = want to的口語(yǔ)形式,后面跟動(dòng)詞原形
Hiding from the rain and snow
躲避在風(fēng)雪之中(藏身于雨雪之中)
Trying to forget but I won’t let go
嘗試著忘記過(guò)去,可是我卻無(wú)法做到
