《My Way》
And now, the end is near;
现在,我的末日将近,
And so I face the final curtain.
面临人生的最后落幕,
My friend, I'll make it clear,
我的朋友,我要说个清楚,
I'll state my case, of which I'm certain.
向你讲述我的人生之路。
I've lived a life that's full.
我活过一个充实的人生,
I've traveled each and every highway;
我经历过每一段路途,
And more, much more I did,
而更重要的是,
I did it my way.
我用自己的方式。
Regrets, I've had a few;
遗憾,也有一些吧,
But then again, too few to mention.
算不上多,不值一提。
I did what I had to do
我做了该做的一切,
And saw it through without exemption.
洞悉世事,不求赦免。
I planned each charted course;
我规划过每一段人生,
Each careful step along the by way,
每一个细微的脚步,
and more, much more than this,
而更重要的是,
I did it my way.
我用自己的方式。
Yes, there were times, I'm sure you knew
是的,你知道有些时候,
When I bit off more than I could chew.
我曾背负不能承受之重,
But through it all, when there was doubt,
但自始至终,就算充满疑惑,
I ate it up and spit it out.
我还是克服困难战胜了它。
I faced it all and I stood tall ;
我挺直身躯,勇敢面对,
And did it my way.
用我自己的方式。
I’ve loved, I’ve laughed and cried.
我曾经爱过,笑过,哭过,
I’ve had my fill ; my share of losing.
我曾经满足,也曾经失落,
And now, as tears subside,
现在,当泪水慢慢沉淀,
I find it all so amusing.
我发现原来可以一笑置之。
To think I did all that;
想到我所做过的一切,
And may I say - not in a shy way,
我可以说,毫不羞愧地说,
No, oh no not me,
我没有虚度,
I did it my way.
我用自己的方式。
For what is a man, what has he got?
男人究竟是什么,拥有什么?
If not himself, then he has naught.
除了自己,我们一无所有。
To say the things he truly feels;
说出心里最真实的感受,
And not the words of one who kneels.
而不是那些身不由己的话。
The record shows I took the blows -
时间证明,我经受住了磨难,
And did it my way!
用我自己的方式!
Yes, it was my way.
没错,这就是我的方式。
《My Way》是ELVIS于1973年夏威夷演唱会上演唱,而三年多之后的1977年,一代摇滚之王,被誉为THE KING猫王的便在人生黄金年龄与世长辞。而MJ的《Breaking News》同样创作于去世前三年,不同的是猫王在那个时刻已经被自己打败,沉溺于毒品和声色犬马,而MJ却发出了“当你以为他已经完蛋的时候,他又回来重振雄风”的自信呐喊。然后三年多之后,两位音乐国度的国王都撒手人寰,也许猫王的离开是人们在几年前已经可以预知的,毒品和沮丧已经使他彻底垮掉,但是MJ呢,却是在创造一个新的也许数百年内都有无人可破的奇迹的时候悄然离开,令人欲罢不能,扼腕叹息。
但是,你有没有想过,有一天你突然惊醒,发现自己在沉闷的屋子里睡着了,现在经历的所有只是一场梦。看了看手机,时间是2009年6月27日,清晨的阳光如此明媚,微风中有熟透的葡萄的气息,打开MJJCN,你看到置顶的红色标题的帖子中,万里之外MJ正在天使之城进行最后的排练,KEEN和大家都热切地期盼着一场百年的盛宴。你发现现世安稳,岁月静好,一切都还充满着希望。 |
