席慕容之《出塞曲》Xi Murong's "Border Farewell Song"

出塞曲 請為我唱一首出塞曲 用那遺忘了的古老言語 請用美麗的顫音歡輕輕呼喚 我心中的大好河山 那只有長城外才有的清香 誰說出塞歌的調子都太悲涼 如果你不愛聽 那是因為歌中沒有你的渴望 而我們總是要一唱再唱 想著草原千里閃著金光 想著黃河岸啊   陰山旁 英雄騎馬啊   騎馬歸故鄉 席慕容  一九七九年

Border Farewell Song Please sing me a border farewell song In those forgotten words of old Please use a beautiful tremolo to softly softly call The good rivers and hills in my heart That sweet smell found only outside the Great Wall Who says the melodies of border farewell songs are all too sad If you don’t enjoy listening to them That’s because they don’t hold your yearnings But we always sing them over and over again Thinking thousands of miles of grassland gleaming in gold Thinking the shores of the Yellow River    beside the Dark Mountain Heroes are riding    riding home  Xi Murong  1979  tr.
