《撞車》(Crash)插曲歌詞譯配

《撞車》 (Crash) 是 2006 年第 78 屆奧斯卡金像獎最佳影片和最佳原 創歌曲得獎作品。影片講述在短短的36 小時內，一場意外的車禍把生活在洛杉磯的一群素昧平生，不同種族的人推入了多米諾式的矛盾和情緒的深淵中。或因此受傷, 或因此有所覺悟 。

我給插曲歌詞譯配了中文。我追求既要準確地表達原意，又要保留大部分原文每行的韻頭和韻尾，甚至一些單字的音韻。同時又使每個詩句的音節長度與相應原文詩句相似。這樣做的主要目的是為了保證譯文能夠仍然比較容易地用原樂曲演唱。

Artist: Kathleen York Lyrics

Song: In the Deep
在水底

Thought you had all the answers
to rest your heart upon
but something happens
don't see it coming, now
you can't stop yourself
now you're out there swimming
in the deep

早以為你有了所有答案
從來遇事不慌
不料奇事橫生
突然來臨竟難料
可你又難改舊習
你隻有現在出去遊泳
在水底

Life keeps tumbling you heart in circles
till you let go
till you shed your pride and you climb to heaven
and you throw yourself off
now you're out there spinning
in the deep

生活總是呼悠你的心可是
隻要不強求
隻要寵辱不驚步入西天
還要舍己自我全拋
可你遊啊遊啊還不停
在水底
