蒼穹未央

情歌銷魂，原文是Killing me softly with his song，台灣島內翻譯為「情歌迷死人」，雖然很「聳」(俗)……但是貼切的很，反而「情歌銷魂」有點文謅謅的，不夠親民，這首歌，我真的、真的非常喜歡它的歌詞，原因無他，因為我似乎曾經就是歌詞中的男孩吧！至少存在於很接近真實的幻想中……三十多年前了……偶而播放來聽，彷彿又回到那熟悉又陌生的時空裡……交錯著……。

他用手指輕撫著我的傷痛

Singing my life with his words

歌詞唱出了我的人生

Killing me softly with his song

Killing me softly with his song

Telling my whole life with his words

歌詞道盡了我的一生

Killing me softly with his song

I heard he sang a good song

I heard he had a style

And so I came to see him

於是我特地前來

To listen for a while

欣賞他的演唱

And there he was, this young boy

他出現了，這位年輕男孩

A stranger to my eyes (*)

我眼中的陌生人

I felt all flushed with fever

我感到臉紅，全身發燙

Embarrassed by the crowd

在群眾面前困窘不安

I felt he found my letters

他看到了我寫的紙條

And read each one out loud

大聲的讀著每一個字

I prayed that he would finish

我祈禱著他能趕快唸完

But he just kept right on (*)

但他卻持續的唸著......

He sang as if he knew me

他唱著，彷彿他早就認識我

In all my dark despair

And then he looked right through me

然後，他看向我這邊來

As if I wasn't there

And he just kept on singing

他繼續唱著

Singing clear and strong (*)

清晰而有力的唱著

PS 經朋友指正，Strumming my pain with his fingers 應該翻譯成「他用手指撩動琴弦，撫慰我的傷痛」較為正確。
