時間: Sun Jun 27 22:09:42 1999
剛看了一下歌詞 覺得他說得蠻好的..
下面我就大概翻一下..翻的不好請多指教..
※ 引述《Embrya (Shaggy)》之銘言：
: 歌詞如下,蠻有趣的一首歌
: Baz Luhrmann
: Something For Everybody
: Everybody's Free (To Wear Sunscreen)
: Ladies and Gentlemen of the class of ?9
: If I could offer you only one tip for the future, sunscreen would be it. The
: long term benefits of sunscreen have been proved by scientists whereas the
: rest of my advice has no basis more reliable than my own meandering
: experience
: I will dispense this advice now.
.......我現在要分述這些建議:
: Enjoy the power and beauty of your youth; oh nevermind; you will not
: understand the power and beauty of your youth until they have faded. But trust
: me, in 20 years youll look back at photos of yourself and recall in a way you
: cant grasp now how much possibility lay before you and how fabulous you
: really looked?Youre not as fat as you imagine.
在你年輕的時候好好享受青春, 當你年華逝去以後,也許就在20年以後,當你回頭
看到自己以前的照片並回憶 會不勝唏噓地感嘆以前沒好好把握機會做些想做的事
並無法接受自己年華不再的模樣.. 所以 別再說自己多胖了...
: Dont worry about the future; or worry, but know that worrying is as effective
: as trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing bubblegum. The real troubles
: in your life are apt to be things that never crossed your worried mind; the
: kind that blindside you at 4pm on some idle Tuesday.
不要為你的未來擔心. 你可以擔心,但是要知道'擔心'和能夠輕易解開的代數方程
是一樣沒什麼效益的. 那些真正在你的未來會成為障礙的,反而是那些你從未放在
心上的事.
: Do one thing everyday that scares you
: Sing
每天做一件嚇到自己的事 (唱歌? 哈哈..)
: Dont be reckless with other peoples hearts, dont put up with people who are
: reckless with yours.
: Floss
不要無視於他人的感受 不要忍受那些對你無理的人
: Dont waste your time on jealousy; sometimes youre ahead, sometimes youre
: behind
: the race is long, and in the end, its only with yourself.
不要浪費時間在忌妒上. 有時你是領先的他人,有時雖是落後,但這場人生的競賽是長的,
到最終,仍在身邊的也只是自己.
: Remember the compliments you receive, forget the insults; if you succeed in
: doing this, tell me how.
記住別人給你的讚美與鼓勵 忘卻那些污辱侮慢. 如果你能夠做到這點 那就教教我吧..
: Keep your old love letters, throw away your old bank statements.
: Stretch
留下你的舊情書, 丟掉那些舊報帳單
: Dont feel guilty if you dont know what you want to do with your life
: the
: most interesting people I know didnt know at 22 what they wanted to do with
: their lives, some of the most interesting 40 year olds I know still dont.
不要為你還不知道你未來想做些什麼. 在我認識的人之中 那些優秀的人在他們22歲
的時候也不知道, 有些甚至已經40歲了 仍不知道.
: Get plenty of calcium.
攝取足量的鈣
: Be kind to your knees, youll miss them when theyre gone.
好好保養你的膝蓋, 否則你會後悔當健康不再.
: Maybe youll marry, maybe you wont, maybe youll have children, maybe you
: wont, maybe youll divorce at 40, maybe youll dance the funky chicken on
: your 75th wedding anniversary
也許你會結婚 也許你不會 也許你會有小孩 也許你不會 也許你會在40歲離婚 也許
你會在75週年的結婚紀念日忘情地跳舞
: what ever you do, dont congratulate yourself
: too much or berate yourself either ?your choices are half chance, so are
: everybody elses. Enjoy your body, use it every way you can
: dont be afraid of
: it, or what other people think of it, its the greatest instrument youll ever
: own..
: Dance
不論你做了什麼 不要過於誇耀自己或是貶抑自己. 你所選擇的只是兩種可能之一,
同理,別人亦是如此.
多多享用自己的身體. 你可以以任何方式, 不要擔心使用它,也不要在意別人怎麼看,
它將會是你曾有過最棒的一項用具.
: even if you have nowhere to do it but in your own living room.
即使你只是一人待在客廳裡, 也可不避諱的跳舞.
: Read the directions, even if you dont follow them.
: Do NOT read beauty magazines, they will only make you feel ugly.
: Get to know your parents, you never know when theyll be gone for good.
: Be nice to your siblings; they are the best link to your past and the people
: most likely to stick with you in the future.
: Understand that friends come and go,but for the precious few you should hold
: on. Work hard to bridge the gaps in geography and lifestyle because the older
: you get, the more you need the people you knew when you were young.
: Live in New York City once, but leave before it makes you hard; live in
: Northern California once, but leave before it makes you soft.
: Travel.
讀讀以下的指示,即使你並不這麼做:
不要閱讀美容雜誌, 它們只會讓你覺得自己很醜.
對你的同儕好一點, 他們將會是你與過去聯繫的最好途徑, 也是你在未來最有可能
接觸的人.
清楚這點..朋友總是來來去去, 但總得把握那些珍貴而稀少的摯友. 努力超越那些橫跨
於你們之間在地理上與生活形態上的障礙. 因為當你漸漸老去, 你越是需要這些老朋友.
起碼在紐約市待過一次, 但在它將你弄的緊張難過之前離去.
起碼在加州西岸待過一次, 但在它讓你安逸鬆懈之前離去.
: Accept certain inalienable truths, prices will rise, politicians will
: philander, you too will get old, and when you do youll fantasize that when
: you were young prices were reasonable, politicians were noble and children
: respected their elders.
: Respect your elders.
接受這些真理: 物價會上漲. 政客玩弄政權. 我們都會變老. 人們總會空幻想.
而在以前, 物價相當合理, 政客高尚, 幼者懂得尊敬長者.
: Dont expect anyone else to support you. Maybe you have a trust fund, maybe
: you have a wealthy spouse; but you never know when either one might run out.
: Dont mess too much with your hair, or by the time you're 40, it will look 85.
: Be careful whose advice you buy, but, be patient with those who supply it.
: Advice is a form of nostalgia, dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from
: the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it
: for more than its worth.
不要期望任何人支持你. 也許你有信用基金, 也許你有富有的另一半; 但你永遠
不知道它們何時會消失.
對任何人的建議都要思考再三, 但要對建議者有耐心.
建議是一種對過去經驗緬懷與處理的形式. 它是一種對過往的整合,把以前不愉快的一
筆勾消並再次利用,使它超過本身的價值.
: But trust me on the sunscreen?
就相信我吧..
