趙雷-我記得:感動人心的民謠作品

在寫Code時候我習慣在背景播放音樂,最近時不時偶爾會跳出一首歌把我注意力拉回來聽看看在唱啥?當下是覺得作者用這組和弦很過分也太芭樂了吧(但很好聽),但因為聲音太低沉因此聽不清楚歌詞在唱什麼,今天剛好寫到一個段落又聽到這首歌,立馬切過去看畫面。不看還好,一看歌詞一整個人驚艷到不行。

這是近年來難得的民謠神作

其實近年來中國出現了很多蠻好聽的歌曲,但對我來說都僅止於靡靡之音的好聽而已(沒有貶低的意思),聽過並不會想要再去仔細的了解,但趙雷這首我記得整個仔細聽下來,無論是編曲,以至於到歌手想要強調重點時刻意加強的樂器混音,都非常的恰到好處。但最特別的還是歌詞的意境非常深遠,描述著世間上難捨難分又清淡如水的複雜關係與情感,雖然說整個主體是在描述對母親的思念,但是我認為也同樣適用在每一種人與人之間的關係情感上,無論是友情、愛情、親情...等羈絆。

「我記得」歌曲的歌詞

我記得 I Remember

作詞/作曲:趙雷

我帶著比身體重的行李
I carry luggage heavier than my body
游入尼羅河底 經過幾道閃電
Swimming into the depths of the Nile, passing through several lightning bolts.
看到一堆光圈 不確定是不是這裡
I see a cluster of halos, unsure if this is the place
我看到幾個人站在一起
I see a few people standing together
他們拿著剪刀摘走我的行李
They take scissors and snatch away my luggage
擦拭我的腦袋 沒有機會返回去
Wiping my head, with no chance to return

直到我聽見一個聲音
Until I hear a voice
我確定是你 可你怎記得我
I'm certain it's you, but how do you remember me?
我帶來了另界的消息
I bring news from another realm
可我怎麼告知你 注定失憶著相遇
But how do I tell you that we are destined to forget our encounter?

我記得這裡是片樹林 後面有個山坡
I remember this place, a forest with a hill behind
山坡上的棗樹每當秋天到來 我們把棗裝滿口袋
On the hill, the jujube fruits fill our pockets when autumn arrives
我記得除了朋友我還做過你的叔父
I remember being not only your friend but also your uncle
你總喜歡跟在我的屁股後面 只是為了那幾個銅錢
You always liked to follow me around, just for a few copper coins
我記得我們曾是戀人 後來戰爭爆發 你上戰場後就再也沒有回來 直到收不到你的信
I remember we were once lovers, but when the war broke out and you went to the battlefield, you never came back until I could not receive your letters.
我們總這樣重複分離 卻要重新開始 相互送別對方 說著來世再見 再次失憶著相聚
We always go through separations like this, yet we have to start over, bid each other farewell, and say "see you in the next life" while forgetting our reunions once again

嗚…
Ooh...
快來抱抱 快來抱抱我 嗚…
Come and hug me quickly, come and hug me, ooh...
嗚…
Ooh...
快來抱抱 快來抱抱我 嗚…
Come and hug me quickly, come and hug me, ooh...

在路上我遇到了一位故去多年的人
On the road, I met someone who passed away many years ago
她是如此年輕 扎著過肩馬尾 露出和你一樣的笑
She was so young, tying her hair into a ponytail, wearing the same smile as you
她和我講了很多關於你成長的故事 在星空另一端 思念從未停止 如同墓碑上的名字
She told me many stories about your growth, at the other end of the starry sky. Longing never ceased, like the names on tombstones

不要哭我最親愛的人 我最好的玩伴 時空是個圓圈 直行或是轉彎 我們最終都會相見
Don't cry, my dearest, my best companion. Time and space form a circle, whether straight or turning, we will eventually meet
在城池的某個拐角處 在夕陽西下時 在萬家燈火的某一扇窗紗裡 人們失憶著相聚
At a corner of the city, when the sun sets, in a window curtain of countless lights, people forget about their reunions

嗚…
Ooh...
快來抱抱 快來抱抱我 嗚…
Come and hug me quickly, come and hug me, ooh...
嗚…
Ooh...
快來抱抱 快來抱抱我 我終於找到你
Come and hug me quickly, come and hug me. I finally found you.

如果人性還在你的身上,細細品味這個歌詞的意境搭配旋律,我只能說令人感動流淚了!人世間的緣分啊,輪輪迴迴來來去去羈羈絆絆,就是一個圓啊!
