副歌:
Do you hear the people sing?
Singing a song of angry men?
It is the music of a people
Who will not be slaves again!
When the beating of your heart
Echos the beating of the drums
There is a life about to start
When tomorrow comes!
第一段:
Will you join in our crusade?
Who will be strong and stand with me?
Beyond the barricade
Is there a world you long to see?
Then join in the fight
That will give you the right to be free!!
第二段:
Will you give all you can give
So that our banner may advance
Some will fall and some will live
Will you stand up and take your chance?
The blood of the martyrs
Will water the meadows of France!
这首歌适合现在的中国传唱,原因就是:太贴切了。
来看歌词吧。
Do you hear the people sing? Singing a song of angry men?
还有什么比这句话更适合沉默抗议的人们?
It is the music of a people Who will not be slaves again!
中国有人站出来了,不愿意再当中共的奴隶了。
最后那句There is a life about to startwhen tomorrow comes,给人一种展望明天的希望。
第一段歌词,
是唱给还没加入抗议的路人听的,特别是最后一句,
Then join in the fightthat will give you the right to be free,
这句歌词哪怕只有高中水平的英语也是能听懂的。
而歌词中,Beyond the barricadeis there a world you long to see,深刻描述了中国人被锁在防火墙内,现在也无法出国,满街都是壁垒,看不到真正的世界的悲哀。
第二段歌词是属于用不怕牺牲前赴后继来明志,暂不讨论。
总之,Doyouhearthepeoplesing这首歌,主歌旋律低沉,副歌旋律激昂,歌词简单有力,内容又十分贴近中国的现状。
希望能在更多抗议的人群中听到这首歌。
