Rocky Mountain High


He was born in the summer of his 27th year
Comin' home to a place he'd never been before
He left yesterday behind him, you might say he was born again
You might say he found a key for every door When he first came to the mountains his life was far away
On the road and hangin' by a song
But the string's already broken and he doesn't really care
It keeps changin' fast and it don't last for long But the Colorado rocky mountain high
I've seen it rainin' fire in the sky
The shadow from the starlight is softer than a lullabye
Rocky mountain high
Rocky mountain high He climbed cathedral mountains, he saw silver clouds below
He saw everything as far as you can see
And they say that he got crazy once and he tried to touch the sun
And he lost a friend but kept his memory Now he walks in quiet solitude the forest and the streams
Seeking grace in every step he takes
His sight has turned inside himself to try and understand
The serenity of a clear blue mountain lake And the Colorado rocky mountain high
I've seen it rainin' fire in the sky
You can talk to God and listen to the casual reply
Rocky mountain high
Rocky mountain high Now his life is full of wonder but his heart still knows some fear
Of a simple thing he cannot comprehend
Why they try to tear the mountains down to bring in a couple more
More people, more scars upon the land                                        And the Colorado rocky mountain high
I've seen it rainin' fire in the sky
I know he'd be a poorer man if he never saw an eagle fly
Rocky mountain high
It's Colorado rocky mountain high
I've seen it rainin' fire in the sky
Friends around the campfire and everybody's high
Rocky mountain high
Rocky mountain high
Rocky mountain high
Rocky mountain high
Rocky mountain high
Rocky mountain high

高高的落基山 他出生在27岁的那年夏天
回到家乡一个从没去过的地方
昨天已成为过去
你会说他获得了新生
或者说他找到了万能的钥匙 当他初次来到山上
他的生命还在遥远的路上
由一支歌悬着
但是琴弦已断开
他毫不在乎
生命千变万化
不会持续到永久 但是科罗拉多州
高高的落基山脉
我看见他让天空着了火
星光下的影子
比催眠曲还要温柔
高高的落基山
高高的落基山 他登上高高的落基山
银色的白云就在他眼底
极目远眺一览无余
人们看见他兴奋地发狂
他要把太阳拥在怀中
他失去了一个朋友
但记忆永存 他在安静而荒凉的地方走着
在森林和小溪中
他每走一步
都在寻找他的魅力
他又思考着
想要理解山涧湖水的安详 但是科罗拉多州
高高的落基山脉
我看见他让天空着了火
你可向上帝倾诉
聆听他随意的回答
高高的落基山
高高的落基山 他的生活充满了奇迹
但他心中仍有
对最简单事情的恐惧
他无法理解
为什么他们要
撕碎那座山
给更多的人带来伤痕 但是科罗拉多州
高高的落基山脉
我看见他让天空着了火
我知道他如果从未见过鹰飞
他会是个更加可怜的人
高高的落基山
高高的落基山 但是科罗拉多州
高高的落基山脉
朋友们绕着篝火
每个人都很高
高高的落基山
高高的落基山 langrisserA 译

经典赏析:John Denver (上)

约翰·丹佛(John Denver)1943年12月31日出生于美国西南部的新墨西哥州,从小喜爱音乐,8岁时祖母送他一把吉他,开始学习音乐。年轻时,他学的是建筑设计专业,1971年他放弃学业,一心从事乡村歌曲的创作和演唱。当年,以演唱歌颂弗吉尼亚山区美丽风光的《乡村之路》(country Road)一举成名。1972年以一曲《高高的洛基山》(Rocky Mountain High)进入电视屏幕,成为美国广播公司"午夜特别节目"的主持人。 丹佛熟悉农村生活,热爱大自然,他创作的歌曲大都是赞美大自然和歌颂人类的友爱和美好的感情。因其曲调简朴、优美,内容清新向上,歌词富有诗意和哲理,使他在罗拉多州一带享有"桂冠诗人"的美名。他的吉他弹唱在世界上更是享有盛名。 1997年10月,丹佛在驾驶自己的私人飞机时不幸失事,终年54岁。 约翰·丹佛的代表作品有:《乡村之路》(Country Road,1971)、《高高的洛基山》(Rocky Mountain High,1972)、《安妮之歌》(Annie's song,1974)、《阳光洒在我肩上》(Sunshine on my shoulders,1974)等。
