hotel california - eagles - freezing heel
eagles
on a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair
warm smell of colitas, rising up through the air
up ahead in the distance, i saw a shimmering(shimmer: to shine fiantly) light
my head grew heavy and my sight grew dim(obscure or somewhat dark from fiantness of light)
i had to stop for the night
there she stood in the doorway;
i heard the mission bell
and i was thinking to myself,
'this could be heaven or this could be hell'
then she lit up a candle and she showed me the way
there were voices down the corridor(a hallway or passageway usu. having rooms opening for it),
i thought i heard them say...
welcome to the hotel california
such a lovely place
such a lovely face
plenty of room at the hotel california
any time of year, you can find it here
her mind is tiffany-twisted, she got the mercedes bends
she got a lot of pretty, pretty boys, that she calls friends
how they dance in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat.
some dance to remember, some dance to forget
so i called up the captain,
'please bring me my wine'
he said,'we haven't had that spirit here since nineteen sixty nine' and still those voices are calling from far away,
wake you up in the middle of the night
just to hear them say...
welcome to the hotel california
such a lovely place
such a lovely face
they livin' it up at the hotel california
what a nice surprise, bring your alibis
mirrors on the ceiling,
the pink champagne on ice
and she said 'we are all just prisoners here, of our own device'
and in the master's chambers,
they gathered for the feast
they stab(to pierce with a pointed weapon) it with their steely knives,
but they just can't kill the beast
last thing i remember, i was
running for the door
i had to find the passage back
to the place i was before
'relax,'said the night man,
we are programmed to receive.
you can checkout any time you like,
but you can never leave

加州旅馆---精神的牢笼
1996年至今,全中国的酒吧都在播放一段音乐会现场录相:在鲜花与彬彬有礼的掌声中,几个功成名就的老家伙一字排开,抱着吉它和贝司做默契的合唱。那是老鹰乐队复出后一场著名的Unplugged Show(不插电晚会),那首随意但整齐、平淡却迷人的著名歌曲,就是他们在1976年底发表的《加州旅馆》。
老鹰乐队是美国乃至美国文化波及到世界最为雅俗共赏的乐队,有人说他们是摇滚乐队,也有人说他们是合唱组,反正他们最拿手的,便是乡村摇滚的五重奏加上五重唱,乡村的传统情怀、摇滚的适当的动感、一层层吉它铺垫出的细致空间、一重重人声叠加的丰富和声,便是他们左右逢源的秘密。作为加州摇滚主流化之后的最成功例子,老鹰自1971年组建到1982年解散,伴随美国人度过了整个七十年代,他们不仅是格莱美大奖的常客,也是每张唱片都是金唱片的骄子,后来,更是"摇滚名人祠"和"硬石餐厅"(Hard Rock Cafe)追星式的收藏对象。就在乐队解散之后,也有Glenn Frey(格伦·弗瑞)、Joe Walsh(乔·沃尔什)、Don Henley(唐·亨利)三位分别成为歌坛巨星,其中唐·亨利的格莱美大奖作品"The End of The Innocence"《纯真的结局》尤其深符美国人回归道德的心态:"我要记住它,亲爱的,在告别之前再给我一个吻,再让我长久地看你最后一眼。你可以把头枕在地上,让你的头发铺散在我的旁边,献出你最珍贵的防线,可这也是结局,这已是纯真的结局。"
正如《纯真的结局》一样,当年的《加州旅馆》也是这样在旧式生活的场景中盘算着道德与美的双重意义。《加州旅馆》更像一个寓言、一次神秘的梦游,在黑暗的沙漠高速公路旁,加州旅馆宾至如归、应有尽有,灯红酒绿、美女如云,可是当"我"想要离开的时候却被告知:"你可以随时买单,但永不能离去。"歌中还有人说:"我们都是自制的牢笼中的囚徒",这听起来颇有警世恒言的味道。然而音乐一旦响起,歌喉绽开之际,说教不见了,悲凉出现了,冷眼看世界的人满心疼痛,像是无力回天的唐僧在向神灵倾诉人间的不义与美好的不幸,而层层叠叠的铮然吉它和温厚的人声又创造了形式上的美----那网一样的听觉麻醉。在老鹰复出后的那个版本中,更有加倍的成熟男人的魅力,那谈不上沧桑,但也绝不是冲动,结果这首歌获得了意想不到的效果,它本身更加平淡从容,而听者却有更大的热情。
《加州旅馆》是多少人心目中的经典恐怕难以计量 这片翻译的东东对于所有加迷来说绝对不能错过本文的原作者也一定是一个超强的加州迷 而我想,英译汉的最高境界也不过如是吧 好了,我废话少说,大家欣赏——

On a dark desert highway cool wind in my hair
Warm smell of colitas rising up through the air
Up ahead in the distance I saw a shimmering light
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
I had to stop for the night
There she stood in the doorway;
I heard the mission bell
And I was thinking to myself
’This could be Heaven or this could be Hell’
Then she lit up a candle and she showed me the way

Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place
Such a lovely face
Plenty of room at the Hotel California
Any time of year, you can find it here
月黑大漠路迢迢,风高凛冽客思归,
人倦眼乏昏欲睡,闻香忽见灯火碎,
但见有女娉婷立,耳畔钟声如乐起,
天堂地狱两相忘,浑然不似在人间,
秉烛引路过画廊,人声嘈杂迎客至:
加州客栈诚待客,虚位以侯游子回,
Her mind is Tiffany- twisted, she got the Mercedes bends
She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys, that she calls friends
How they dance in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat.
Some dance to remember, some dance to forget
So I called up the Captain,
’Please bring me my wine’
He said,’We haven’t had that spirit here since nineteen sixty nine’
And still those voices are calling from far away,
Wake you up in the middle of the night
Just to hear them say...
Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place
Such a lovely face
They livin’ it up at the Hotel California
What a nice surprise, bring your alibis
衣香鬓影佳人意,玉郎终始为君来,
放歌纵舞前廊院,香汗淋漓未尽欢:
纵使笙歌能醉月,情未忘我怎忘情?
便向校官索美酒,经年未备意阑珊,
午夜梦回旧馆舍,声声呼唤充耳闻,
倦鸟羁留深林久,此间乐哉不思飞,
Mirrors on the ceiling,
The pink champagne on ice
And she said ’We are all just prisoners here, of our own device’
And in the master’s chambers,
They gathered for the feast
The stab it with their steely knives,
But they just can’t kill the beast
Last thing I remember, I was
Running for the door
I had to find the passage back
To the place I was before
’Relax,’said the night man,
We are programmed to receive.
You can checkout any time you like,
but you can never leave
宝镜倒映烛影晃,寒冰装点酒色红,
宾客齐至成盛筵,佳人美酒俱添光,
轻启朱唇惊四座,投杯停箸不能食:
钢刀银*手中持,心魔犹在不能消,
自我羁押成囚徒,吾辈颓然尚不知。
闻言仓皇寻旧路,四顾茫茫无着处,
明朝更向何处去?更者悠然言少歇:
纵然我辈长别离,此生有命不能弃,
前路漫漫归旧旅,生此回环无尽时。作者: 阿车 时间: 2007-7-21 01:13
实际上“加州旅馆”,是一由修道院改成的戒毒所。经受了戒毒时所经历的各种幻觉与痛苦,就不难理解歌词有些怪诞,以致于有点恐怖了。
