Daily Growing 不能理解的悲剧

一袭烟霞

The trees they grow high, the leaves they do grow green,
树正高啊叶正茂
Many is the time my true love Ive seen,
心上人啊我常见
Many an hour I have watched him all alone,
孤身人啊我常望
Hes young but hes daily growing.
少年郎啊日日长
Father, dear father, youve done me great wrong,
父亲啊父亲你铸大错
You have married me to a boy who is too young,
把我嫁与那少年郎

I am twice twelve and he is but fourteen,
一个二十四啊一个仅十四
Daughter, dear daughter, Ive done you no wrong,
女儿啊女儿我不曾错
He's young but he's daily growing
可少年郎啊也在日日长

I have married you to a great lords son,
豪门之子可依傍
He will be a man for you when I am dead and gone,
我离去后是他伴你身旁
Hes young but hes daily growing
少年郎啊他也在日日长

Father, dear father, if you see fit,
父亲啊父亲若你觉尚妥
Well send him to college for another year yet,
来年我们送他入大学
Ill tie a blue ribbon all around his head,
那蓝丝带啊在他额上环圈
To let the maidens know that he is married.
周知妙龄少女他已履婚约
One day I was looking over my fathers castle wall,
一日我远眺自父亲的城堡
I spied all the boys playing with a ball,
窥见少年踢球吵吵闹闹
And my own true love was the flower of them all,
我的真爱如鲜花熠熠闪耀
He's young but he's daily growing
他日日成长 尽管依旧年少

And so early in the morning at the dawning of the day,
那日正早啊晨曦正好
They went into a hayfield to have some sport and play,
在干草堆他们嬉戏玩闹
And what they did there she never would declare,
相爱之举 深藏心底 不愿言状
But she never more complained of his growing.
但从此以后她不再怨他青涩飞扬
At the age of fourteen he was a married man,
十四岁哟他已为人夫
At the age of fifteen the father of my son,
十五岁呀他已为人父
At the age of sixteen his grave it was green,
十六岁啊 墓前草茵 早已作古
And death had put an end to his growing.
少年已故啊不再成长
Ill buy my love some flannel, Ill make my love a shroud,
买来法兰绒啊做我爱人寿衣
With every stitch I put in it, the tears they will pour down,
一针针啊 我泪如泉涌
With every stitch I put in it, how the tears they will flow,
一线线啊 泪密如针脚
Cruel fate has put an end to his growing.
命运残酷啊，少年故人，再不成长！



       却原来，外国也有包办婚姻，也有所谓的嫁豪门，父亲为女儿着想的心不想否定，只是这天意弄人也是挡不住的，豪门少爷永远沉睡在了他的十六岁，而我们的女主人公如何面对今后的人生成了一个谜题。

    第一次听这首歌，因为不懂英文，以为是首情歌，但也因为听懂了旋律里的无奈和悲伤，把它定义为伤感情歌。直到看到歌词才恍然大悟。

    质问，解释，接受到最后的惨淡结局，旋律里却没有我觉得该有的痛苦与歇斯底里，该过的日子依然要过，只剩下不知是谁的叹息在旋律里回荡。
