这首歌反映强势文明与弱势文明的关系(战争版)
*
来自大国Gordon Tseng的英文四行诗集GOD BLESS NOT ONLY AMERICA
Still, How Many
*
How many lands will get showers of bullets made of new alloy?
How many creatures would perish after the jetfighters’ cool ‘hoy’?
How many wars does a nation have to win to own real peaceful joy?
The answer has been there since they tried to educate the foreign red boy.
- from GOD BLESS NOT ONLY AMERICA
这首大国Gordon Tseng诗集中的英文四行诗原是针对美国人写的,red boy指印第安男孩。在写成歌曲时,为了更能反映近代历史上强势文化与弱势文化之间关系的普遍现象,便将结尾改成了:
The answer has been there since they tried to educate the locally foreign uncivilized boy.
(中文版)
还有多少土地要接受子弹的教诲和叮咛
还有多少生命会消失于战机的咆啸与雷鸣
还有多少战争要赢才能让他们真正拥有和平
答案来自啊 有些人总试图要别人也学会所谓文明
仓库字典:
locally foreign uncivilized boy "当地很外国的"不文明男孩
嗯,这首四行诗,是不是好像很赛德克巴莱了呢?
Bob Tone作曲,大国的演唱。
歌曲中,诗人还加入了刻意改写的美国儿歌<印地安男孩>
One little, two little, three little Indians.
Four little, five little, six little Indians.
Seven little, eight little, nine little Indians.
Ten little Indians annoyed.
One lightened, two lightened, three lightened aliens.
Four lightened, five lightened, six lightened aliens.
Seven lightened, eight lightened, nine lightened aliens.
Ten lightened aliens annoyed.
仓库字典:
Indians annoyed 很不爽的印地安人
lightened aliens annoyed "被教化得很不爽的"外国人
