好的~在掙(耍)扎(廢)了好幾天之後,我決定這星期要來翻譯我近期一直重複撥放的一首歌

也就是毛多多(咦?!)先生的Galway Girl

(為什麼叫毛多多先生?請去上一首Ed Sheeran的Shape Of You的翻譯文章裡找答案吧)

至於為什麼會掙扎呢?本來是蠻認真想持續Follow西洋流行新歌的

但是最近一兩個星期出來的單曲...真心沒有我喜歡的歌...

少數幾首好聽的歌翻譯完之後,我就開始新歌空窗期了= = 

(欸這首歌也是新歌好嗎!!)

這首Galway Girl是我這一兩個月一直在手機MP3裡面重複撥放的歌

除了旋律很輕快好聽之外,還加入了蘇格蘭笛伴奏,歌詞也很有味道

歌詞內容是在敘述一個在酒吧認識的愛爾蘭女生的故事

Galway高威是愛爾蘭一個城市的名稱,Google了一下,是當地第四大的城市

歌詞裡面有許多內容也不斷提到愛爾蘭的事物

是一首很好聽也很耐聽的歌,和大家分享

"Galway Girl"

 

She played the fiddle in an Irish band

她是愛爾蘭樂團裡的小提琴手

But she fell in love with an English man

但她愛上了一個英國人

Kissed her on the neck and then I took her by the hand

在她的脖子上種下一吻後,我牽起她的手

Said, "Baby, I just want to dance"

我說:親愛的,我只想和你共舞

 

I met her on Grafton street right outside of the bar

我在格夫頓街上的酒吧外遇到她

She shared a cigarette with me while her brother played the guitar

她和我分享了一根菸,而她的兄弟在酒吧內彈著吉他

She asked me what does it mean the Gaelic ink on your arm?

她問我我手臂上刺的愛爾蘭語是什麼意思

Said it was one of my friend's songs do you want to drink on?

我告訴她那是我朋友唱的一首歌,要一起喝一杯嗎?

 

She took Jamie as a chaser, Jack for the fun

她把調酒當成開場,傑克丹尼爾威士忌是小小的樂趣

She got Arthur on the table, with Johnny riding as shot gun

蘇格蘭氣泡酒瓶擺在桌上,約翰走路威士忌像如同短槍射擊般連發

Chatted some more, one more drink at the bar

多聊了幾句,多喝了幾杯

Then put Van on the jukebox, got up to dance, you know

點播Van on the jukebox這首歌,你懂的,來跳舞吧

With my pretty little Galway Girl

You're my pretty little Galway Girl

你就是我美麗的高威女孩

 

You know she beat me at darts and then she beat me at pool

她在飛鏢局上痛宰我,又在舞池裡打擊我

And then she kissed me like there was nobody else in the room

之後像四下無人般肆意的親吻我

As last orders were called, was when she stood on the stool

當她站在板凳上隨著音樂舞動時,最後一輪酒也送上了

After dancing to Cèilidh, singing to trad tunes

和蘇格蘭同樂會一起狂歡,一起哼著合唱團的歌曲

I never heard Carrickfergus ever sung so sweet

我從來沒聽過這麼好聽的卡里克弗格斯

Acapella in the bar using her feet for a beat

酒吧樂團的阿卡貝拉以她的腳步當拍子

Oh I could have that voice playing on repeat for a week

噢!我可以重複聽這樣的曲調一個星期

And in this packed out room, swear she was singing to me, you know

在這個擠滿人的房間裡,你懂的,我發誓這首歌她就是唱給我的

Now we've outstayed our welcome and it's closing time

現在已經是酒吧的休息時間,早已聽不到歡迎光臨的招呼了

I was holding her hand, her hand was holding mine

我牽著她的手,她也牽著我的手

Our coats both smell of smoke, whisky and wine

As we fill up our lungs with the cold air of the night

I walked her home then she took me inside

我陪著她走回家,而她留我過夜

Finish some Doritos and another bottle of wine

用另一罐酒和幾包多力多滋繼續我們的夜

I swear I'm going to put you in a song that I write

我發誓我要把你寫進我的下一首歌

About a Galway girl and a perfect night

關於一個高威女孩,還有一個美好的夜晚
