Hi! 我是Taffy !
今天與大家分享的歌曲,是經典樂團Sting的 “Shape of My Heart”,是盧貝松導演經典之作「這個殺手不太冷 (Léon/ The Professional)」的主題曲。請老派樂團 Sting譜唱~相信大家其實多少都聽過這首歌。
這首歌,完全就是在闡述影中角色--義大利殺手里昂(Léon),充滿貫徹電影的模糊情感的浪漫、殺手的血味菸味(?)男人味兒,還有,隱藏在冷漠殺手皮囊下的原則、真心和愛。
Taffy最喜歡的,是這首歌的浪漫意境和些許的沉重,讓人有種隱約窺探到角色充滿荊棘但又溫暖的內心。尤其是口琴段落,真的是將看盡社會醜惡、血腥黑暗的殺手,將他的滄桑與疲憊如同一支菸般,裊裊輕升再消散;同時又感受得到他對小女孩馬蒂爾達(Mathilda) 層層複雜的情感和溫暖。
這首歌真得太過經典,所以有非常多的翻譯版本,非常歡迎大家多家查看。
而此篇則是我非常想翻譯出的自己想法的版本~

翻譯歌詞:
He deals the cards as a meditation
他應牌時如冥想般平靜
And those he plays never suspect
不曾對自己的牌組有所遲疑
He doesn't play for the money he wins
他不為獎金而贏牌
He don't play for respect
他不為他人尊重而入台
He deals the cards to find the answer
他只欲為悟出答案而出牌
The sacred geometry of chance
神聖的幾何組合變化莫測
The hidden law of a probable outcome
機率遊戲的規則隱匿其中
The numbers lead a dance
讓數字引領牌局的走向
I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
黑桃神似牌局爭鋒相對的殺意
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
梅花似是牌戰中的盾牌刀劍
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
方塊代表了牌藝的潛藏利益
But that's not the shape of my heart
但這些,都不是我心的形狀
He may play the Jack of diamonds
他可以戲弄愛財的惡棍 [菱形傑克(11點)]
He may lay the Queen of spades
他可以削弱戰場上的智慧女神 [黑桃皇后(12點)]
He may conceal a King in his hand
他可以設計掩蔽國王(13點)作為殺手鐧
While the memory of it fades
他在回憶逐漸消逝之時將想起
I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
桃紋是牌局中指喉的劍端
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
梅紋是牌戰中盛放的計謀
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
菱紋是牌藝中的運籌帷幄
But that's not the shape of my heart
但這些,都不是我心之形
That's not the shape, the shape of my heart
通通都不是我真心的面貌
And if I told you that I loved you
倘若我對你訴說愛意
You'd maybe think there's something wrong
你可能還會覺得哪裡不對勁
I'm not a man of too many faces
但我不是個身處迷霧中的千面人
The mask I wear is one
我只有真心的面具一副
But those who speak know nothing
而那些自以為是的愚人們
And find out to their cost
將會發現為自己的唇舌付出代價
Like those who curse their luck in too many places
就像那些揮霍自己運氣的牌局賭徒
And those who fear a loss
往往將賠慘他們最害怕付出的賭注
I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
就像我知道
黑桃代表戰場上我殺人的刀槍
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
梅花代表計局中我破計的智慧
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
方塊代表接案刺殺的我牽扯到的權與錢
But that's not the shape of my heart
但這些都不是我心之所嚮
That's not the shape of my heart
全部都不是我心所渴望
That's not the shape, the shape of my heart
皆非我心之形…皆非我心之形
