「林译小说式·歌词意译」All Falls Down
林译小说:是指清末古文家林纾(琴南)用文言意译的163 种欧美小说。著名的有《巴黎茶花女遗事》《迦因小传》,译笔哀感顽艳,《黑奴吁天录》《块肉余生述》等译笔质朴古劲。因其早而开风气,对世界小说的大量输入,而引发读者对中国小说正宗地位的首肯。译文虽不尽忠实原文,但简洁传神,时杂谐趣,颇能传达原著的情味。作文重视形象与情境,善以含蓄隽永的笔墨造境叙情。

What's the trick? I wish I knew
冀燕婉 混沌初开
《母别子》:“以汝夫妇新燕婉,使我母子生别离。”
I'm so done with thinking through all the things I could've been
既虑事将竟未竟 那堪辗转徘徊
《国风·周南·关雎》:“求之不得,寤寐思服。悠哉悠哉,辗转反侧。”
And I know you wonder too
既知子望予来
《九歌·少司命》:“望美人兮未来,临风怳兮浩歌。”
All it takes is that one look you do and I run right back to you
如是窥子秋波脉脉 载欣载奔揽予怀
《卜算子·送鲍浩然之浙东》:“水是眼波横,山是眉峰聚。”
《归去来兮辞》:“乃瞻衡宇,载欣载奔。”
You crossed the line and it's time to say "F" you
既孟浪汝 望之阊阖外
《离骚》:“令帝阍其开关兮,倚阊阖而望予。”

What's the point in saying that when you know how I'll react?
既知我老生常谈 谓我不忿何怠
《诗经·王风·黍离》:“知我者,谓我心忧,不知我者,谓我何求。”
You think you can just take it back, but shit just don't work like that
既覆水夫曷收为? 悠悠苍天寂隐霾
《诗经·王风·黍离》:“悠悠苍天!此何人哉?”
You're the drug that I'm addicted to and I want you so bad
鸾翙乎其羽 卿耽乎其士 子曜乎其态
《诗经·大雅·卷阿》:“凤凰于飞,翙翙其羽,亦傅于天。”
《诗经·卫风·氓》:“于嗟女兮,无与士耽!”
Guess I'm stuck with you and that's that
蓁蓁桃叶 高冈畦栽
《国风·周南·桃夭》:“桃之夭夭,其叶蓁蓁。”
《诗经·大雅·卷阿》:“凤凰鸣矣,于彼高冈。梧桐生矣,于彼朝阳。”

Cause when it all falls down, then whatever
炽火兮焚旗 贞风兮摧台
《哀江南赋》:“炽火兮焚旗,贞风兮害蛊。”
When it don't work out for the better
夫竹染篪恸 谯萦埙哀
《小雅·何人斯》:“伯氏吹埙,仲氏吹箎。”
If it just ain't right, and it's time to say goodbye
彼其皆谬 樱笋时节植柳者百
《自贻》:“恨抛水国荷蓑雨,贫过长安樱笋时。”
When it all falls down, when it all falls down
城阙颓圮倾覆 凄凉绝塞
《沁园春·试望阴山》:“只凄凉绝塞,峨眉遗冢;梢沉腐草,骏骨空台。”
I'll be fine
I'll be fine
You're the drug that I'm addicted to and I want you so bad
鸾翙乎其羽 卿耽乎其士 子曜乎其态
《诗经·大雅·卷阿》:“凤凰于飞,翙翙其羽,亦傅于天。”
《诗经·卫风·氓》:“于嗟女兮,无与士耽!”
But I'll be fine

Why we fight? I don't know
何谩然?昧其殆
《荀子·非相》:“乡则不若,偝则谩之,是人之二必穷也。”
We say what hurts the most
怼兮似彼芒麦
《九歌·国殇》:“天时怼兮威灵怒,严杀尽兮弃原野。”
Oh, I tried staying cold, but you take it personal
澹如深渊之静 既系之舟徒慷慨
《鵩鸟赋》:“其生兮若浮,其死兮若休;澹乎若深渊之静,泛乎若不系之舟。”
All these firing shots and making ground
琐纷纭 兰因絮果迭代
《丑奴儿令》:“兰因絮果从头问,吟也凄迷,掐也凄迷,梦向楼心灯火归。”
It's way too hard to cope, but I still can't let you go
独倥偬乎罅隙 蓬门安阖为君开
《客至》:“花径不曾缘客扫,蓬门今始为君开。”

Cause when it all falls down, then whatever
炽火兮焚旗 贞风兮摧台
《哀江南赋》:“炽火兮焚旗,贞风兮害蛊。”
When it don't work out for the better
夫竹染篪恸 城萦埙哀
《小雅·何人斯》:“伯氏吹埙,仲氏吹箎。”
If it just ain't right, and it's time to say goodbye
彼其皆谬 樱笋时节植柳者百
《自贻》:“恨抛水国荷蓑雨,贫过长安樱笋时。”
When it all falls down, when it all falls down
城阙颓圮倾覆 凄凉绝塞
《沁园春·试望阴山》:“只凄凉绝塞,峨眉遗冢;梢沉腐草,骏骨空台。”
I'll be fine
I'll be fine
You're the drug that I'm addicted to and I want you so bad
鸾翙乎其羽 卿耽乎其士 子曜乎其态
《诗经·大雅·卷阿》:“凤凰于飞,翙翙其羽,亦傅于天。”
《诗经·卫风·氓》:“于嗟女兮,无与士耽!”

I'll be fine-ine-fine, fine-ine-ine
I'll be fine-ine-fine, fine

《自贻》:“恨抛水国荷蓑雨,贫过长安樱笋时。”
When it all falls down When it all falls down
謇凄凉绝塞 望美人未来
《沁园春·试望阴山》:“只凄凉绝塞,峨眉遗冢;梢沉腐草,骏骨空台。”
《九歌·少司命》:“望美人兮未来,临风怳兮浩歌。”
