Down by the Salley Gardens – órla Fallon
Down by the Salley Gardens的作曲者是爱尔兰著名诗人、剧作家和神秘主义者William Butler Yeats,这首诗出自Yeats早年的作品,诗句质朴,韵律优美,感情细腻,劝喻人生。在夜深人静之时,悠扬的乐声把我们带进一个没有喧嚣,没有浮躁的世界,这经典的爱情诗篇,经由歌手的轻声哼唱,能给我们带来美好的心情。
演唱者Orla Fallon来自恩雅式爱尔兰系美声的五人女子组合Celtic Woman(美丽人声),从小就会唱歌及弹竖琴,且非常喜爱传统爱尔兰音乐。身兼琴手及歌手双重身份,她曾在各地音乐竞赛中获奖。在担任个人歌手期间,她在欧美两地密集巡回,演唱自创的爱尔兰音乐。

Down By The Salley Garden (歌词)
作词:Yeats (1865-1939,爱尔兰剧作家、诗人,获1923年诺贝尔文学奖)
Down by the salley gardens my love and I did meet;
在莎莉花园深处,吾爱与我曾经相遇。
She passed the salley gardens with little snow-white feet.
她穿越莎莉花园,以雪白的小脚。
She bid me take love easy, as the leaves grow on the tree;
她嘱咐我要爱得轻松,当新叶在枝桠萌芽。
But I being young and foolish, with her would not agree.
但我当年年幼无知,不予轻率苟同。
In a field by the river my love and I did stand,
在河边的田野,吾爱与我曾经驻足。
And on my leaning shoulder she laid her snow-white hand.
她依靠在我的肩膀,以雪白的小手。
She bid me take life easy, as the grass grows on the weirs;
她嘱咐我要活得轻松,当青草在堤岸滋长。
But I was young and foolish, and now i m full of tears.
但我当年年幼无知,而今热泪盈眶。
