芬蘭的民間詩歌 - Leva’s Polka
Loituma是一支芬蘭的民間樂隊，主唱Anita Lehtola是一位非
常具有聲音魅力的女歌手，她經常參加各種世界音樂,Anita
的演唱具有Runo-song的意味（Runo-song 又稱“rune-song”
或是“poem-song”。“rune”的意思是古代北歐和芬蘭的
詩歌。 這是一種芬蘭的民間詩歌，其形式是一種反複的，
在開頭押韻的詩歌形式），清冷而又極具韻味，仿佛把我
們帶到暸一片綠茵之地，遼遠而又恰是幻境。
另一個謎題是歌曲，源自於「阿卡貝拉(A Cappella)」團體
「Loituma」唱的「Leva’s Polka」，是一首斯堪地那維亞
(Scandinavian)的地方歌,所謂阿卡貝拉就是不用樂器光
靠分部合聲來演唱歌曲的表演方式，Loituma是來自芬蘭的
一支演唱團隊，由四個人組成的四部合聲來演唱，他們的
歌曲都是以比較傳統的芬蘭音樂為主，他們在參加了1997
年的考斯蒂寧民,音樂節而開始受到大家的注意。
这首歌的英文翻译
English translation
Leva’s polka
The sound of a polka drifted from my neighbor’s
and set my feet a-tapping oh!
Ieva’s mother had her eye on her daughter but
Ieva she managed to fool her, you know.
’Cause who’s going to listen to mother saying no
when we’re all busy dancing to and fro!
Ieva was smiling, the fiddle it was wailing
as people crowded round to wish her luck.
Everyone was hot but it didn’t seem to bother
the handsome young man, the dashing buck.
’Cause who’s going to mind a drop of sweat
when he’s all busy dancing to and fro!
Ieva’s mother she shut herself away
in her own quiet room to hum a hymn.
Leaving our hero to have a spot of fun
in a neighbor’s house when the lights are dim.
’Cause what does it matter what the old folks say
when you’re all busy dancing to and fro!
When the music stopped then the real fun began
and that’s when the laddie fooled around.
When he took her home, when the dancing was over
her mother angrily waiting they found.
But I said to her, Ieva, now don’t you weep
and we’ll soon be dancing to and fro!
I said to her mother now stop that noise
or I won’t be responsible for what I do.
If you go quietly and stay in your room
you won’t get hurt while your daughter I woo.
’Cause this fine laddie is a wild sort of guy
when he’s all busy dancing to and fro!
One thing I tell you is you won’t trap me,
no, you won’t find me an easy catch.
Travel to the east and travel to the west but
Ieva and I are going to make a match.
’Cause this fine laddie ain’t the bashful sort
when he’s all busy dancing to and fro.作者: 还有多远 时间: 2008-4-15 10:49
