王尔德的经典之作:Lady Come Down



不知道大家有没有看过王尔德的经典剧作The Importance Of Being Earnest,以此改编的同名电影由科林·费尔斯主演,女主角之一还是《律政俏佳人》中的金发美女Reese Witherspoon。这首Lady Come Down就是当时剧中的插曲,由王尔德作词。不过公平来说,两大男主角的唱功真不咋地,唱成这样,Lady是不会下来见你们的哦。



Artist:Rupert & Colin

Song:Lady Come Down



Rupert (as Algy): After you dear boy.

Colin (as Jack 1): Oh no after you.

Rupert: No, no, no, do go first Im not really good at the high bits. Im much better low

Colin: Oh well see...

Hm hm hm hmm

Rupert: 1 2. and!





Colin: The western wind is blowing fair

Across the dark Aegean Sea

Rupert: And at the secret marble stair

My Tyrian galley 2 waits for thee



Together: Come down, the purple sail is spread

The watchman sleeps within the town

Oh leave thy lily flowerbed

Oh lady mine, come down



Chorus 3: Come down

Lady come down

Come down

Lady come down,

Oh Lady come down



She will not come I know her well

Of lover's vows 4 she hath no care

And little good a man can tell

Of one so cruel and so fair



Colin: True love is but a womans toy

They never know their lover's pain

Rupert: And I who loved as loves a boy

Must love in vain

Together: Must love in vain



Come down

Lady come down

Come down

Lady come down



Colin: I think your high notes may have damaged our chances old boy. You do want them to come down dont you?

Rupert: well she is never gonna come down if you're singing like that. Youre completely out of tune 5

Colin: How dare you

Rupert: Ill take this bit

Colin: you leave this to me. You go lie down around

Rupert: no Ill take this bit

Colin: out of my way Im coming through

Rupert: go easy, my dear fellow

Colin: COME DOOOOOWWWNNN



Come down

Lady come down (Rupert: Jack (Colin), youre messing it more) __

Come down

Lady come down



Colin: That wasnt so bad, was it?
