天籁音乐 君子于役(Traveling Soldier)
英语课
Traveling 1 Soldier可以算是“南方小鸡(Dixie Chicks)乐队组合”最诗化的作品，它的诗化正在于它用口语表述着一个柔软又伤感的故事，而这故事是民谣时代传统的再现，也是平凡心灵深处也许并不惊显的波动：一位将赴前线的士兵身边没有可以说话的人，偶然间他在一家小小的咖啡馆看见一个温柔恬静的女孩，于是他请求她陪着说说话，两人一见钟情而又被分两地，藉着书信传达心中的思念和爱慕，直到战争结束……这个带有美国60年代色彩的故事开始于吉他奏出的轻柔的序幕，女生和着苏格兰风笛的长奏，在小提琴悠扬的渲染和吉他的挑拨中，凄楚，而又执着。
南方小鸡(Dixie Chicks)是三位来自德克萨斯州的女歌手组成的乡村音乐组合。这支乐队是一支很有影响力的乡村音乐组合，但同时，她们也是非常积极倡导和平的人士。比如这首 Travelin' Soldier就是有关于战争题材的，她们讲了一个非常动人、而且发人深省、同时也是一个很有意义的故事。
这是一首伤感的歌曲，但它也证明了南方小鸡(Dixie Chicks)乐队组合精湛的歌唱技艺。这支乐队在曾赢得三项格莱美奖，包括最佳乡村组合，最佳乡村乐器演奏等，它是目前美国乐坛最受欢迎的乡村音乐组合之一。
Travelin' Soldier - Dixie Chicks歌词
Two days past eighteen
He was waiting for the bus in his army green
Sat down in a booth in a cafe there
Gave his order to a girl with a bow in her hair
He's a little shy so she gives him a smile
And he said would you mind sittin' down for a while
And talking to me,
I'm feeling a little low
She said I'm off in an hour and I know where we can go
So they went down and they sat on the pier
He said I bet you got a boyfriend but I don't care
I got no one to send a letter to
Would you mind if I sent one back here to you
Chorus: I cried
Never gonna hold the hand of another guy
Too young for him they told her
Waitin' for the love of a travelin' soldier
Over love will never end
Waitin' for the soldier to come back again
Never more to be alone when the letter said
A soldier's coming home
So the letters came from an army camp
In California then Vietnam
And he told her of his heart
It might be love and all of the things he was so scared of
He said when it's getting kinda rough over here
I think of that day sittin' down at the pier
And I close my eyes and see your pretty smile
Don't worry but I won't be able to write for awhile
[Chorus]
One Friday night at a football game
The Lord's Prayer said and the Anthem sang
A man said folks would you bow your heads
For a list of local Vietnam dead
Crying all alone under the stands
Was a piccolo player in the marching band
And one name read and nobody really cared
But a pretty little girl with a bow in her hair
[Chorus]
