My father has an old guitar and he plays me folk songs
父亲有把旧吉他 常为我弹唱民谣
My father has an old guitar and he plays me folk songs
父亲有把旧吉他 常为我弹唱民谣
There is nothing I want more than to play like him
我最大的心愿 就是能像他一样演奏
He goes to the basement and builds me a cookie-tin banjo
他走进地下室 给我做了饼干罐班卓琴
He builds me a cookie-tin banjo the strings are made of rubber bands
琴弦是橡皮筋做的 饼干罐班卓琴
The strap is an old red neck tie
背带是条旧红领带
The body is the big round lid of a metal cookie-tin
琴身是金属饼干罐的圆盖子
When he plays his old guitar I play my cookie-tin banjo
当他弹起那把旧吉他 我就摇响饼干罐班卓琴
I play my cookie-tin banjo right along with him
抱着自制的小琴 与他琴声相和
The more we play together
我们合奏得越久
The more I fall in love with music
我对音乐的爱就愈加深沉
And I realize that my banjo is a toy that I've outgrown
渐渐明白这玩具琴已装不下成长的梦
I want strings of steel and something new and something real
我渴望钢弦震颤 触碰真实律动
So he gets me a guitar to call my own
于是他为我买下 专属的吉他
Then dad says to me on this fine afternoon
在那个美好的午后 父亲轻声对我说
Let's sit on the stairs I'll teach you a tune
让我们坐在台阶上 我来教你弹首歌
He hands me a pick one that's little and black
他递给我一枚小小的黑色拨片
He shows me the g chord I've never looked back
教我弹G和弦 从此便再难忘却
Now buried somewhere in a closet is my cookie-tin banjo
如今饼干罐班卓琴静静躺在衣柜深处
In my arms is my guitar my greatest source of joy
而我怀抱着吉他 那是我最大的幸福源泉
For the life that I have now I'm grateful to my father
如今的生活 我满怀对父亲的感激
He gave the gift of music to his boy
他将音乐的礼物 赠予他的孩子
It started with a simple homemade toy
从简单的自制玩具开始萌芽
