华尔街英语为大家安利几首适合圣诞节听的歌曲
大家已经被《Jingle Bell》、《We wish you a merry Christmas》等等“圣诞口水歌”轮番洗脑。看到这些歌曲就会想到圣诞节,不过今年的圣诞节华尔街英语教大家几首不一样的歌曲,让大家在今年的圣诞节可以演唱出来露一手!
今天要听的第一首,流传于古英格兰的一首古老“圣诞民歌”。据说这首歌最早可追溯到15世纪,在圣诞节人们会为贵族们献唱来获取额外收入,这一古老的颂歌直到今日仍然在英格兰各城镇传唱。这首歌的名字叫《God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen》。如果大家觉得它的旋律耳熟,那一定是听过《寓言》这首翻唱版本的歌。
第一首:
Libera - God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen(YouTube: Libera Dreams Channel)
歌词:" God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen "
God rest you merry, gentlemen.
Let nothing you dismay.
Remember christ our saviour.
Was born on christmas day.
To save us all from satan's power.
When we were gone astray.
O, tidings of comfort and joy.
Comfort and joy.
O, tidings of comfort and joy.
From god our heavenly father.
A blessed angel came.
And unto certain shepherds.
Brought tidings of the same.
How in that bethlehem was born.
The son of god by name.
O, tidings of comfort and joy.
Comfort and joy.
O, tidings of comfort and joy.
"Fear not" then said the angel.
"Let nothing you affright.
This day is born a saviour.
Of a pure virgin bright.
To free all those who trust in him.
From satan's pow'r and might".
O, tidings of comfort and joy.
Comfort and joy.
O, tidings of comfort and joy.
Now to the lord sing praises.
All you within this place.
And with true love and brotherhood.
Each other now embrace.
This holy tide of Christmas.
All others doth deface.
O, tidings of comfort and joy
Comfort and joy
O, tidings of comfort and joy
第二首:
这首歌曲也十分经典。或许是因为这首歌整体都特别平静、舒缓,在西方这首歌几乎是排名No.1的圣诞歌,因为它描述的是圣诞平安夜那宁静、祥和与温馨的气氛。这首歌就是《Silent Night》。
"Silent Night"
Silent night, holy night.
All is calm, all is bright.
Round yon Virgin, Mother and Child.
Holy infant so tender and mild.
Sleep in heavenly peace.
Sleep in heavenly peace.
Silent night, holy night.
All is calm, all is bright.
Round yon Virgin, Mother and Child.
Holy infant so tender and mild.
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace
第三首:
最后一首为大家带来的是比原版更加唯美女声慢版的《Forbidden Colors》。好听的音乐无需多说,倾听,入心。
Forbidden Colours (Sylvian / Sakamoto) w/Lyrics -- Julienne Taylor(YouTube: evosound)
My life believes.
Senseless years thunder by.
Millions are willing to give their lives for you.
Does nothing live on?
Learning to cope with feelings aroused in me.
My hands in the soil, buried inside of myself.
My love wears forbidden colours.
My life believes in you once again.
I`ll go walking in circles.
While doubting the very ground beneath me.
Trying to show unquestioning faith in everything.
Here am I, a lifetime away from you.
The blood of Christ, or a change of heart.
My love wears forbidden colours.
My life believes.
My love wears forbidden colours.
My life believes in you once again.
