I on-ly wan-ted to have fun.

曾经年少的好时光，

Lear-ning to fly, lear-ning to run.

纵情奔跑，恣意翱翔，

I let my heart de-cide the way.

任心灵指引我方向，

When I was young.

未曾迷茫。

Deep down I must have al-ways known.

内心深处一直坚强，

That this would be in-e-vi-ta-ble.

明白这一切都很平常，

To earn my stripes I'd have to pay.

为了理想情愿受伤，

And bear my soul.

决不彷徨。

I know I'm not the on-ly one.

我知道所有人一样，

Who re-grets the things they've done.

都会有遗憾悲伤，

Some-times I just feel it's on-ly me.

蓦然回首似乎只有我，

Who can stand the re-flec-tions that they see.

能坦然面对不堪的过往。

(who ne-ver be-came who they thought they'd be.

并未能成为期许的模样。)

I wish I could live a li-ttle more.

多希望生命再开扇窗，

Look up to the sky, not just the floor.

学会了低头，学会仰望，

I feel like my life is fla-shing by.

却无奈青春年华似水，

And all I can do is watch and cry.

眼睁睁看它流向远方。

I miss the air, I miss my friends.

儿时伙伴，童年时光，

I miss my mo-ther, I miss it when.

留恋妈妈那怀里的香，

Life was a par-ty to be thrown.

人生就像是一出戏，

But that was a mi-llion years a-go.

总会有那落幕的一场。

(A mi-llion years a-go...

怎能不去怀想...)

When I walk a-round all of the streets.

当我回到了久别故乡，

Where I grew up and found my feet.

总想寻找往日模样，

They can't look me in the eye.

期盼故友再相认，

It's like they're scared of me.

眼神却难碰撞。

I try to think of things to say.

我多想唤醒你回忆，

Like a joke or a me-mo-ry.

从前在一起的时光，

But they don't re-co-g-nize me now.

哦岁月改变了我容颜，

In (the) light of day.

怎能不忘？

翻译随笔

第一次听到Million Years Ago这首歌时，内心就产生了翻译的冲动。歌曲旋律采用黯淡的小调，向听众倾诉对逝去时光的追忆与不舍。歌曲旋律是否符合译入语受众审美习惯是译成汉语后能否传唱的基础性环节，也是译者进行文本选择首先应考虑的要素。其次，中文歌词的译写若能始终遵循“统摄原意另铸新词”原则，时刻注重歌词画面感的营造，才能进一步在译入语受众中激发共鸣。拙译将let my heart decide the way译为“任心灵指引我方向”，I wish I could live a little more译为“多希望生命再开扇窗”，I miss my mother译为“留恋妈妈怀里的香”，They can't look me in the eye. It's like they're scared of me译为“期盼故友再相认，眼神却难碰撞”等等，都在时刻秉持这一翻译原则。
