家园 【原创】3,玫瑰,玫瑰, 我爱你

玫瑰,玫瑰, 我爱你

这曲子倒是值得写几笔了, 40年代上海滩上的流行歌曲,首唱为姚莉, 是当时的银嗓子,排名仅次于金嗓子周旋,词作者吴村,曲作者陈歌辛,那可是个大名鼎鼎的人物了,《蔷薇处处开》,《夜上海》等得作曲者, 其公子陈钢也是后来《梁祝》的曲作者之一。而这首歌本身则更为传奇, 因为它最后流传到了美国,由彼时的著名爵士歌手Frankie Laine唱红, 在1951年竟然上了Bill Board的第一名。

姚莉版

Frankie Laine版 / Rose, Rose, I love you

[FLASH]http://www.youtube.com/v/ix8M5eMq9Ko[/FLASH]

1951年

词作者:Wilfred Thoma(英国佬)

歌词:

Rose, Rose I love you with an aching heart.

What is your future, now we have to part?

Standing on the jetty as the steamer moves away,

Flower of Malaya, I cannot stay.

Mei Kwei, oh, Mei Kwei for my Eastern Rose.

Men crowd in dozens everywhere she goes.

In her rickshaw on the street or in a cabaret,

"Please Mei Kwei for Rose," you can hear them say.

All my life I shall remember,

Oriental music and you in my arms.

Perfumed flowers in your tresses,

Lotus-scented breezes and swaying palms.

Rose, Rose I love you with your almond eyes.

Fragrant and slender 'neath tropical sky.

I must cross the seas again and never see you more.

Way back to my home on a distant shore.

(All my life I shall remember,)

(Oriental music and you in my arms.)

(Perfumed flowers in your tresses,)

(Lotus-scented breezes and swaying palms.)

Rose, Rose I leave you, my ship is in the bay.

Kiss me farewell now, there's nothin' to say.

East is East and West is West, our worlds are far apart.

I must leave you now but I leave my heart.

Rose, Rose I love you with an aching heart.

What is your future, now we have to part?

Standing on the jetty as the steamer moves away,

Flower of Malaya, I cannot stay.
