说到翻译歌词,不得不提一下英文经典歌曲《加州旅馆》翻译成中国古诗的经典之作,具体翻译者姓甚名谁已不可考,古诗押韵与否不必苛求,关键在于意境至高无上,也许有人已经见过,如下:
加州旅馆--纪录美国上个世纪七十年代的沧桑
On a dark desert highway cool wind in my hair
Warm smell of colitas rising up through the air
Up ahead in the distance I saw a shimmering light
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
I had to stop for the night
There she stood in the doorway;
I heard the mission bell
And I was thinking to myself
’This could be Heaven or this could be Hell’
Then she lit up a candle and she showed me the way
There were voices down the corridor,
I thought I heard them say...
Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place
Such a lovely face
Plenty of room at the Hotel California
Any time of year, you can find it here
月黑大漠路迢迢,风高凛冽客思归,
人倦眼乏昏欲睡,闻香忽见灯火碎,
但见有女娉婷立,耳畔钟声如乐起,
天堂地狱两相忘,浑然不似在人间,
秉烛引路过画廊,人声嘈杂迎客至:
加州客栈诚待客,虚位以侯游子回,
Her mind is Tiffany- twisted, she got the Mercedes bends
She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys, that she calls friends
How they dance in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat.
Some dance to remember, some dance to forget
So I called up the Captain,
’Please bring me my wine’
He said,’We haven’t had that spirit here since nineteen sixty nine’
And still those voices are calling from far away,
Wake you up in the middle of the night
Just to hear them say...
Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place
Such a lovely face
They livin’ it up at the Hotel California
What a nice surprise, bring your alibis
衣香鬓影佳人意,玉郎终始为君来,
放歌纵舞前廊院,香汗淋漓未尽欢:
纵使笙歌能醉月,情未忘我怎忘情?
便向校官索美酒,经年未备意阑珊,
午夜梦回旧馆舍,声声呼唤充耳闻,
倦鸟羁留深林久,此间乐哉不思飞,
