Today Is A Gift

(2013-01-11 07:02:44) 下一个


 

Song: Today
Artist: Bobby Goldsboro

While the blossoms still cling to the vine
I'll taste your strawberries
I'll drink your sweet wine
A million tomorrows shall all pass away
I forget all the joy that is mine

I'll be a dandy, and I'll be a rover
You'll know who I am by the songs that I sing
I'll feast at your table, I'll lie in your clover
Who cares what tomorrow may bring

I can't be contented with yesterdays glory
I can't live on promises winter to spring
For this is my moment, this is my story
I'll laugh and I'll cry and I'll sing

While the blossoms still cling to the vine
I'll taste your strawberries
I'll drink your sweet wine
A million tomorrows shall all pass away
I forget all the joy that is mine

说起《Today》这首歌曲,还挺有趣的,是在网友博客里留言互动,网友特意贴的。我在网友的博客里留言时,想起了一句英语格言:"Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a Gift. That's why it's called the Present" .

网友读到我的留言,就想起了John Deven的《Today》, John Denver的歌曲我听了不少,可是这首歌曲我却是第一次听到的。喜欢这首歌曲的旋律和歌词,我就去YouTube上查询,找到了John Denver和Bobby Goldsboro的演唱版本,但是John Denver的是现场版本,有掌声和观众互动的声音等,所以我选择了Bobby Goldsboro的演唱版本,我也是第一次听他的歌曲,颇为喜欢他的演绎。Bobby Goldsboro是美国的乡村歌手,他的成名曲是《Honey》.

当我听到Bobby Goldsboro唱道“While the blossoms still cling to the vine”,我脑海了就出现了的渥特豪斯的油画,那优雅美丽的女人在春天里摘着花儿, 还要杜十娘的诗行:“花开堪折直须折,莫待无花空折枝。”我不由地想到诗画歌是相通的,诗体现着画,画描绘着诗,而歌则唱出了诗和画。
