The Well——Shine Dion
Sunday, January 14, 2007 | Author: chun

Shine Dion是来自挪威Skien (斯基恩)的2重唱组合,它的音乐被认为是挪威和爱尔兰民调的结合体,在音乐中经常使用很多乐器:小提琴,风笛,SAX,曼陀林(类似我们的琵琶), 3角铁,美乐特朗(一电子琴) , 木吉他。其中Janne Hansen是主唱兼歌词创作, Per Sel鰎则主作曲和吉他弹奏。

歌曲的歌词灵感通常都是来自挪威当地的神话,传说及风土人情。他们的音乐成功实现了古典和现代的结合,从中我们可以感受到田园般的宁静,灵魂的脆弱,及时间的无涯。




The Well——by Shine Dion

By an old drinking well on the grass so green
I lay down and fell into a dream
By a strange mellow sound from a silver eyed bird
I opened my eyes but said no word
On the pathway came walking a woman so bold
Behind her in silence went the old

Ahead ran the children with joyful cries
Their faces were lifted to the skies
The woman's hair was raven and black as the night
Covered with stars shining bright

As they passed by the well I saw that their eyes
Were flaming like many coloured ice
They passed by the well like a breeze pure and clean
Soon they were nowhere to be seen

When I woke up alone on the grass so green
I looked into the well to catch the dream
The water was rising and I felt a chill
I willed the water to be still

There was a face in the mirror like a face out of time
The eyes held a shimmery shine
There was a face in the mirror
and the face wasn't mine
The eyes held a shimmery shine
