【四言金曲】Killing Me Softly（其歌斷魂）

I heard he sang a good song
I heard he had a style
and so I came to see him and listen for a while.
And there he was this young boy, a stranger to my eyes.

客有妙歌
獨具一格
吾聞趨聽
素未謀麵
吾詫其少

Strumming my pain with his fingers
singing my life with his words
killing me softly with his song
killing me softly with his song
telling my whole life with his words
killing me softly with his song.

弦動我痛
詞訴我生
其歌索命
其曲斷魂
唱盡我生
撕我心肺
 
I felt all flushed with fever embarrassed by the crowd.
I felt he found my letters and read each one out loud.
I prayed that he would finish but he just kept right on.
 
如遭群嘲，麵赤無措
似信曝光，當眾宣讀
祈其速止，朗聲不息

Strumming my pain with his fingers
singing my life with his words
killing me softly with his song
killing me softly with his song
telling my whole life with his words
killing me softly with his song.

弦撥舊痛
歌述我生
其曲追命
其歌斷魂
似訴我生
肝腸俱斷
 
He sang as if he knew me in all my dark despair.
And then he looked right through me as if I wasn't there.
But he was that a stranger, singing clear and strong.
 
我之絕望，盡在其歌
其目掠過，如我不存
陌生歌者，清音嘹亮

Strumming my pain with his fingers
singing my life with his words
killing me softly with his song
killing me softly with his song
telling my whole life with his words
killing me softly with his song.

弦撥我痛
詞述我生
其歌奪命
其曲索魂
訴盡我生
肝腸寸斷

• 我心裏想的是“私信曝光”，但因為是聽者的感受，所以改成“似信曝光”。還有不少地方可以再完善：） -WXCTEATIME- ♂ (0 bytes) () 10/15/2021 postreply 05:55:04

• 從來沒有覺得這首歌有這麽悲啊 -MYTA- ♀ (212 bytes) () 10/16/2021 postreply 15:08:41

• 到現在我都沒有聽這首歌，僅僅是看歌詞然後試著譯成中文。也許我聽了歌後感覺就完全不同了，抽時間會聽一下。謝謝提供歌曲鏈接。 -WXCTEATIME- ♂ (0 bytes) () 10/17/2021 postreply 01:31:42

• 你的語言非常美，我記得我見過你翻譯的詩經吧。。wow -MYTA- ♀ (293 bytes) () 10/17/2021 postreply 08:29:41

• 是這樣的，同一首歌不同的人會有不同的感受，跟聽者的經曆、學識、品性、心情等等都有關係。 -WXCTEATIME- ♂ (119 bytes) () 10/17/2021 postreply 09:23:52
