021、Altan - Daily Growing(日渐长大)9 O6 V# k& b/ q/ E7 y
又一首爱尔兰音乐天籁,有故事的歌曲,父女俩对话般的吟唱、以及歌中那种仿佛已经渗入骨髓的忧伤让人无比感伤。故事是这样的:一个女子在年轻的时候由于父亲的安排嫁给了一个显贵的子弟,她开始担心自己的年龄有一天会成为感情悲剧的主因,她埋怨父亲错误的将自己嫁给了一个比她小很多的男子。婚后第二年,他们有了自己的孩子,而她的夫君却也还是一个孩子,在一天天的长大。她送他去上学,为他裹了蓝色的头巾,她怕别人抢走父亲为自己选定依存的真爱。而命运的捉弄,却使她很快成了寡妇,在为爱人缝制寿衣的时候,她的悲哀成了整个曲子的灵魂……" T) ^$ w/ E6 U6 Q7 U E6 X
