70版《简爱》罗切斯特所唱的歌曲《青春的季节》


YOUTH'S THE SEASON
JOHN GAY
Youth's the season made for joys,
Love is then our duty.
She alone who that employs,
Well deserves her beauty.
Let's be gay
while we may.
Beauty's a flower, Despised in decay.
Youth's the season made for joys,
Love is then our duty.
Let us drink and sport today,
Ours is not tomorrow.
Love with youth flies swift away,
Age is not but sorrow.
Dance and sing,
Time's on the wing.
Life never knows the return of spring.
Let us drink and sport today,
Ours is not tomorrow.
青春的季节(约翰 盖原著 詹森翻译)
青春本快乐
爱情何拒绝
唯有知此情
不负美丽时
尽情欢乐吧
趁此好年华
美丽如花朵
枯萎必遭弃
青春本快乐
爱情何拒绝
狂欢痛饮吧
明朝本无时
青春如白驹
过隙空悲鸣
唱啊且跳啊
时光总飞逝
生命难春回
狂欢痛饮吧
明朝本无时
这是最经典的简爱版本 -- 1972 乔治斯科特(George C Scott) 饰演罗彻斯特时在舞会上唱的一首歌,来自于John Gay的歌剧 "The Beggar's Opera";
这是70年版《简爱》中罗切斯特在宴会上由剧中人英格兰姆小姐伴奏所演唱的一曲短歌。书中所写是演唱《海盗》,只不过这里做了改动,但是斯科特的歌声也确实符合书中的人物!
