美篇呈现
Yesterday once more
When I was young,
I'd listen to the radio,
Waiting for my favorite songs.
When they played I'd sing along①,
It made me smile.
Those were such happy times
and not so long ago.
How I wondered where they'd gone.
But they're back again
just like a long lost friend.
All the songs I love so well.
Every sha-la-la-la,every wo-wo.
Still shines.
Every shing-a-ling-a-ling,
That they're starting to sing,
So fine.
When they get to the part,
Where he's breaking her heart,
It can really make me cry,
Just like before,
It's yesterday once more.
Looking back on how it was
in years gone by②,
And the good times that I had,
Makes today seem rather sad.
So much has changed.
It was songs of love
that I would sing to then,
And I'd memorize each word.
Those old melodies③,
Still sound so good to me,
As they melt the years away④.
Every sha-la-la-la,every wo-wo.
Still shines.
Every shing-a-ling-a-ling,
That they're starting to sing,
So fine.
All my best memories,
Come back clearly to me.
Some can even make me cry,
Just like before,
It's yesterday once more.
Every sha-la-la-la,every wo-wo.
Still shines.
Every shing-a-ling-a-ling,
That they're starting to sing,
So fine.
昨日重现
当我年轻时,
常听收音机,
等待我最喜欢的歌曲。
当他们演奏时,我会随之吟唱,
这使我心情欢畅。
那是多么幸福的时刻!
就在不久以前。
我想知道他们曾去何处。
但他们现在又回来了,
正如老友失散又重聚。
所有的歌曲我都如此喜爱。
每一句sha-la-la-la,每一句wo-wo。
仍旧闪烁。
每一句shing-a-ling-a-ling,
就在他们放声歌唱时,
如此美妙。
当他们唱到一个地方,
他令她伤心断肠,
这真能叫我哭泣,
正如从前一样,
仿佛昨日又重现。
回头看,
岁月如何消逝,
这些旧日的好时光,
使今天显得令人哀伤。
变化多大啊!
这些爱之歌,
那时我跟唱着,
我会记住每一句歌词。
那些熟悉的旋律,
在我听来还是那么好,
好像他们把岁月消融。
每一句sha-la-la-la,每一句wo-wo。
仍旧闪烁。
每一句shing-a-ling-a-ling,
就在他们放声歌唱时,
如此美妙。
我所有美好的记忆,
清晰地重现。
有一些仍能使我哭泣,
正如从前一样,
仿佛昨日又重现。
每一句sha-la-la-la,每一句wo-wo。
仍旧闪烁。
每一句shing-a-ling-a-ling,
就在他们放声歌唱时,
如此美妙。

Yesterday once more《昨日重现》是一首追怀旧情的感伤之作。经历过一系列失恋打击、身处孤独之中的歌手原本是收音机的忠实听众,常常跟随电波中的一曲曲情歌吟唱。后来,陷入爱河的她不再有闲暇去收听音乐广播了,与收音机渐渐疏远。而今,为情所伤、心如死灰的她再度打开收音机,熟悉的旋律重新响起,一声声、一曲曲仿佛正讲述着自己的身世。时光流逝,情感变迁,但那一首首曾如旧友长伴身侧的老歌,却忠诚如初,永远不会背叛自己。温馨中夹杂苦痛,慰藉之余更添伤感:难道人尚不如歌 多情易伤、多愁善感的她多么盼望昨日随旧曲重现。
