与其鲜花丛中嗅芬芳
不如故纸堆里觅华章

Ching-a-Ring - Jennifer Larmore

        这首「Ching a Ring Chaw」编录在美国作曲家阿隆·科普兰(Aaron Copland 1900.11.14-1990.12.2)1950年发表的首卷“美国民谣歌集”中,为钢琴伴奏的独唱曲,词曲源自19世纪风靡一时的美国黑脸吟游乐团(minstrel show)热门曲目,节奏活泼而带有明显的非洲舞曲特质,唱词风趣中折射出那个时期非洲族裔倍受歧视的社会现实,[圣经]典故的引用,则表达了他们对幸福安逸生活的向往。

Ching-a-ring-a ring ching ching
Hoa ding-a-ding kum larkee
Ching-a-ring-a ring ching ching
Hoa ding kum larkee
Brothers gather round
Listen to this story
'Bout the promised land
An' the promised glory
You don' need to fear
If you have no money
You don' need none there
To buy you milk and honey
There you'll ride in style
Coach with four white horses
There the evenin' meal
Has one two three four courses
兄弟们围成圈
听我来说个事
关于梦想家园
还有美好希冀
若你身上没钱
担心大可不必
有人自会买单
给你牛奶蜂蜜
直管风度翩翩
安坐驷马车骑
顿顿饕餮大餐
各种美味随意
Ching-a-ring-a ring ching ching
Hoa ding-a-ding kum larkee
Ching-a-ring-a ring ching ching
Hoa ding kum larkee
Nights we all will dance
To the harp and fiddle
Waltz and jig and prance
"Cast off down the middle!"
When the mornin' come
All in grand and splendour
Stand out in the sun
And hear the holy thunder
Brothers hear me out
The promised land's a-comin'
Dance and sing and shout
I hear them harps a strummin'
Ching-a-ring-a ching
ching ching, ching a ring ching
......chaw
夜夜起舞狂欢
不知玲珑声碎
摇摆跳跃旋转
嗨到不觉忘归
黎明又在眼前
你我整装列队
站在圣光之眼
倾听大地惊雷
大伙听我说完
快去做好准备
迎接理想家园
琴弦声声心醉
