Whatever Will Be, Will Be

I asked my mother,

"What will I be?

Will I be pretty?

Will I be rich?"

Here's what she said to me:

"Que sera, sera,

Whatever will be, will be;

The future's not ours to see.

Que sera, sera,

What will be, will be."

When I grew up and fell in love.

I asked my sweetheart,

"What lies ahead?

Will we have rainbows

Day after day?"

"Que sera, sera,

Whatever will be, will be;

The future's not ours to see.

Que sera, sera,

What will be, will be."

Now I have Children of my own.

They ask their mother,

"What will I be?"

Will I be handsome?

Will I be rich?"

I tell them tenderly:

"Que sera, sera,

Whatever will be, will be;

The future's not ours to see.

Que sera, sera,

What will be, will be.

Que Sera, Sera!"

“将来我会变成什么样子呢？

会漂亮吗？

会富有吗？”

她对我说：

“世事不可强求

顺其自然吧。

我们不能预见未来。

世事不可强求，顺其自然吧。”

当我长大了，恋爱了，

我问我的心上人，

“我们将来会怎么样呢？

我们的生活每天都会美好吗？”

我的爱人对我说：

“世事不可强求

顺其自然吧。

我们不能预见未来。

世事不可强求

顺其自然吧。”

现在我有了自己的孩子，

他们问我，

“将来我会变成什么样子呢？会英俊吗？会富有吗？”

我轻声地回答：

“世事不可强求

顺其自然吧。

我们不能预见未来。

世事不可强求

顺其自然吧。”

意更独特的称呼，比如 Teddy Bear 、 Sugar Doll 等等。不过，其中的特别

含义大概只有他们自己才明白。

应该注意的是，英文中的“lover”并不是中文中的“爱人”，而是

“情人”的意思，且多用於女人婚外的情人。男人的婚外情人是“mistress”。Take Me Home, Country Roads

Almost heaven, West Virginia,

Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River.

Life is old there, older than the trees:

Younger than the mountains, growing like a breeze.

Country roads, take me home,

To the place I belong,

West Virginia, Mountain mamma,

Take me home, country roads.

All my memories gather round her,

Miner's lady, stranger to blue water.

Dark and dusty, painted on the sky,

Misty taste of moonshine, teardrop in my eye.

Country roads, take me home,

To the place I belong,

West Virginia, Mountain mamma,

Take me home, country roads.

I hear her voice in the morning hours,

She calls me.

The radio reminds me of my home Far away,

And driving down the road,

I get a feeling

That I should have been home yesterday, yesterday.

Country roads, take me home,

To the place I belong,

West Virginia, Mountain mamma,

Take me home, country roads.

我一直想着我妈妈，她是个矿工的太太从来没有见过大海。矿场上的灰尘总是将天空染成

黑色。在回忆中，我仿佛品尝到了以前常喝的家里自制的酒。想到这些，不禁潸然泪下。

有一种早就该回家的感觉

Rhythm of the Rain

Listen to the rhythm of the falling rain,

Telling me just what a fool I've been.

I wish that it would go and let me cry in vain,

And let me be alone again.

The only girl I care about has gone away.

Looking for a brand new start!

But little does she know that when she left that day.

Along with her she took my heart.

Rain, please tell me now. Does that seem fair for her

To steal my heart away when she don't care

I can't love another, when my heart's somewhere far away.

The only girl I care about has gone away.

Looking for a brand new start!

But little does she know that when she left that day.

Along with her she took my heart.

Rain, won't you tell her that I love her so

Please ask the sun to set her heart aglow

Rain in her heart and let the love we knew start to grow.

Listen to the rhythm of the falling rain,

Telling me just what a fool I've been.

I wish that it would go and let me cry in vain,

And let me be alone again.

Oh, listen to the falling rain--pitter-patter...

歌词大意：

听那淅淅沥沥的雨声，它好象在说,我是个傻瓜。我真希望雨停下来。让我无望地哭泣，

让我再次孤身单影。

我唯一在乎的姑娘已经离去，去寻找她的新生活。然而，她不知道，当她离去的那天，

也将我的心带走。

雨呀，请告诉我，那样公平吗？她偷走了我的心，居然毫不在乎。我无法再爱别人，我

的心已远远漂向异地。

雨呀，你就不能告诉她我多么地爱她，请让太阳燃起她心中的爱苗，让雨滋润她的心田。让我们爱情之花重新盛开。

哦，听那雨声，噼哩啪啦。

本句中…she don’t care实应为…she doesn't care。但在口语中，尽管主语是第三人称单数，也有用don’t代替doesn't的用法。此处歌词为求发音方便，故用don’t。但正式写作应避免。一定要注意人称与单复数形式一致才是。
