I wish I could go traveling again / 但願我可以再次去旅行

聽了Stacy Kent這首旅行之歌一年多，我終於決定試著把歌詞裡的畫面畫下來，最後滿意的只有一張，可能是因為最近我的心之所向是泰國，所以對於熱帶地區的一切心有戚戚焉。歌詞帶著淡淡的哀傷，我卻用愉快的心情詮釋，如果可以把在和過去的美好時刻區隔開來，那當下應該是燦爛無比的吧！


I’ve listened to this song by Stacy Kent for more than a year, and recently I’ve made up my mind to put down the lyrics in pictures. Unfortunately, I am satisfied with only one of the images, which has something to do with my latest country of affection—Thailand. There is a touch of sentimentality in the lyrics, but I drew with great elation. I am thinking, if we can rationally separate the present from the past, then the memories themselves will dazzle with blinding light.


但願我能夠再度去旅行 史黛西肯特


I wish I could go traveling again by Stacy Kent


我要侍者用我們都聽不懂的語言

把我們斥責一頓

同時我們爭論著當地的習俗

但願我能夠再度旅行


I want a waiter to give us a reprimand

In a language neither of us understand

While we argue about the customs of the land

I wish I could go travelling again


我要坐在車陣裡擔心趕不上航班

而你漠不關心的評論讓我快要抓狂

我要和你在熱帶陣雨裡奔跑尋找避身之處

我多麼希望能再次旅行

在價格過高又缺乏裝飾的旅館裡

我要故障的防火鈴把我吵醒

然後在你的懷中再度沉沉睡去

但願我能夠再次去旅行


(I want to) sit in traffic anxious about our plane

While your blasé comments drive me half insane

I want to dash for shelter with you through the tropical rain

I wish I could go travelling again

(I want to) be awakened by a faulty fire alarm

In an overpriced hotel devoid of charm

Then fall asleep again back in your arms

I wish I could go travelling again


但是我如何再次旅行

當我知道我只會不斷想起過去

當我知道我會回想心碎片刻


But how can I ever go travelling again

When I know I’ll just keep remembering again

When I know I'll just keep gathering again

Reminders to break my heart ?


我希望我能夠再度去旅行

感覺夏天好長

而友人紛紛邀請我

但願我能夠再次去旅行


I wish could go travelling again

It feels like this summer will never end

And I've had such good offers from several of my friends

I wish I could go travelling again


我要身處有名的咖啡館、頭上有遮陽蓬擋著

坐在陰涼處喝著拿鐵

時差還調不過來

行李箱下落不明

但願我能夠再次去旅行


(I want to) sit in my shades, sipping my latte

Beneath the awning of a famous cafe

Jet-lagged and with our luggage gone astray

I wish I could go travelling again
