Note: 譯記:There are numerous ways of telling the love story, novels, short stories; but this one, John Denver uses his country lyric, so poetic, and sang with his unique voice that like the clouds on top of the mountains, or a river flows in the land. "Perhaps Love" depicts love with imagery richness of his classics in the language that read so dear. He was crowned as the "mountain poet", an American legend of country-singer admired by many people from both sides of the ocean.
*Let's enjoy his song now, from youtube, from remix by an unknown youtube user.
Perhaps love is like a resting place A shelter from the storm It exists to give you comfort It is there to keep you warm And in those times of trouble When you are most alone The memory of love will bring you home
Perhaps love is like a window Perhaps an open door It invites you to come closer It wants to show you more And even if you lose yourself and don't know what to do The memory of love will see you thru
O love to some is like a cloud To some as strong as steel For some a way of living For some a way to feel And some say love is holding on And some say letting go And some say love is everything Some say they don't know
人們都說愛是天上白色雲朵, 人們還說它是銀色鋼鐵雕塑,
聽大地上的小河在慢慢流過, 聽都市裏的戀愛在浪漫傳說,
聽說集市中有鮮嫩芹菜蘿卜, 據說愛像激情詩歌火山噴火。
她說擁有愛的人也曾有錯過, 他說愛到了心頭卻也口難說。
Perhaps love is like the ocean Full of conflict full of pain Like a fire when it's cold outside A thunder when it rains If I should live forever And all my dreams come true My memories of love will be of you
她說藍色海洋比大地還要遼闊 他說風浪海禍有痛苦飄入雲朵
據說就像風雪交加爐壇的溫存 聽說猶如雨中雷鳴兩極的碰火
說好像生命仿佛應該得到永生 說好像我在美麗夢中渴望複活 說好像你在譜寫詩歌美麗傳說
And some say love is holding on And some say letting go And some say love is everything Some say they don't know 重複句
說是搖椅在思索霓虹也在閃爍, 說有愛就有一切可卻難以表措?
Perhaps love is like the ocean Full of conflict full of pain Like a fire when it's cold outside A thunder when it rains
If I should live forever And all my dreams come true My memories of love will be of you 重複句
