《Come to My Garden》請來到我的花園
此曲為蘇珊舒爾曼(Susan H. Schulman)編導的音樂劇「秘密花園」(The Secret Garden)中第二幕的一段二重唱,由約翰利密特(John Leavitt)改編為混聲四部合唱曲,內容描述一位病懨懨的小男孩因為害怕跑到戶外去,所以不敢跟表姐一起去她發現的一座廢棄花園中玩耍,這時他死去多年的母親唱出鼓勵他的話,希望他能勇敢進入花園。
本曲最大特色在於以男女聲分別扮演小男孩及母親的角色,各有不同的主題旋律。母親輕聲呼喚:「Come to my garden!來吧,孩子!」,八度大跳的旋律開頭引人入勝;而小男孩演唱:「Lift me up!媽媽抱我!」,則運用許多複點節奏增加樂曲的律動。最後兩個角色對唱,兩個主題交織在一起,以音樂來描述感人的舐犢之情。
Clusters of crocus, purple and gold.
Blankets of pansies up from the cold.
Lilies and iris, safe from the chill.
Safe in my garden snow drops so still.
Come to my garden nestled in the hill.
There I'll keep you safe beside me.
Come to my garden rest there in my arms.
There I'll see you safely grown and on your way.
Stay there in my garden where love grows free and wild.
Come to my garden come sweet child.
Lift me up and lead me to the garden where life begins a new,
Where I'll find you, and I'll find you love me too.
Come to the garden. Rest there in my arms.
There I'll see you safely grown, and on your way.
I shall see you in my garden where love grows free and wild.
(I shall see you in your garden and spring will come and stay)
Come to my garden come sweet day.
(Lift me up and lead me to the garden)
一叢叢紫色與金黃的番紅花,
整片的紫羅蘭在寒冷中綻放著,
更有許多怕冷的百合與鳶尾花,
當外面飄著雪時它們都在我的花園中得到庇護。
來吧,到我位於山丘上如家般溫暖的花園中吧,
在那裡我會將你留在身邊保護著你的安全;
來吧,來到我的懷抱中休憩,
在這裡你將不受干擾自由自在地長大;
來吧,我親愛的孩子,
在我的花園中,愛肆意地成長與茁壯。
親愛的媽媽,
請引導我走向妳的花園開展生命的新頁,
我們將發現彼此是對方的摯愛。
來吧,我親愛的孩子,
來到我的懷抱中休憩,
在我的花園中,愛肆意地成長與茁壯。
親愛的媽媽,
請引導我走向妳的花園,
等待春天的到來,
開展生命的新頁。
