《苏州河恋曲》 "A Love Song for Suzhou River" - 顶楼马戏团 First Floor Circus

A song in Shanghainese by Top floor circus

词、曲：顶楼的马戏团
翻译：小水
录音、混音：驴（上海postape录音室）

从小我了还（在）苏州河边潘家湾长大
嘴巴里讲额（的）是一口流利的江北闲话
立了阁楼顶上放眼出去就是一片片棚户
祖祖辈辈日脚就这样过

I spent my childhood at Panjiawan along the Suzhou River
I used to speak a fluent Jiangbei dialect
Standing on the attic, I could see a wide spread of shanty areas
Generation after generation they lived like this

吃好夜饭牵子大人的手出去散散步
看一看墨赤乌黑的苏州河
周围的工厂裁偷偷教（地）往侬身体里排污
没人用心地将侬爱护

My parents would take me for a walk after dinner
And take a look at the dirty black Suzhou River
The plants around secretly discharged pollutants into your water
No one took good care of you any longer

啊，苏州河，
啊，我额（的）母亲河
臭气熏天额（的）垃圾船从侬身朗厢（上面）腾过
人人裁捏牢鼻头从侬腰眼角落溜过

Oh, Suzhou River
Oh, my mother river
The stinky garbage ships floated over your shoulder
People slipped by your waist, stopping their noses with fingers

现在沿了侬额（的）两岸裁（都）种满了绿化
铺上了一条条挺括（有型）额（的）柏油路
了（在）上海楼市同样墨赤乌黑额（的）天空下
侬是伊拉（他们）炒了最热额（的）一幅画

Now both sides of you are lined with trees
Asphalt roads are paved neatly
Under the same dirty black sky of Shanghai's property market
You are the hottest picture they speculate

现在额（的）我已经伐（不）是那个小辰光（时候）额（的）我
侬还是不是我小辰光额（的）那条河
好看到侬风景额（的）小区是造了一只比一只大
我只有每天低头乘轻轨经过

Now I'm no longer the child I used to be
Are you still the river in my memory
Estates with your waterscape are built bigger and bigger
I can only pass you every day on my way by the metro

啊，苏州河，
啊，我额（的）母亲河
真为侬开心看到侬三十年来额（的）大变化
我又哪能（怎么）舍得拿侬错过

Oh, Suzhou River
Oh, my mother river
I'm so gald to witness your great changes in the past thirty years
How can I let you slip through my fingers

我出差去欧洲兜过莱茵塞纳泰晤士河
帮侬相比只是小巫见大巫
地球村高头（上面）流过来淌过去伐（不）晓得多少河
而侬永远是我最亲最爱的河

On business trips to Europe, I've seen the Rhine, the Seine and the Thames
None of them can ever compare to you
There are so many rivers running on the earth
But you are my dearest river forever

啊，苏州河，
啊，我额（的）母亲河
就算我踏遍全世界三万六千五百里路
我哈（也）要回到侬额（的）身边向侬倾诉

Oh, Suzhou River
Oh, my mother river
Even if I have to walk a thousand miles to see you
I will come back and pour out my heart to you

啊，苏州河，
啊，我额（的）母亲河
为啥看侬再多我哈（也）伐（不）会得嫌贬（嫌弃）多
就请让我为侬写下各（这）一只歌

Oh, Suzhou River
Oh, my mother river
Why am I never tired of seeing you
Just let me write this song for you

为啥看侬再多我哈（也）伐（不）会得嫌贬（嫌弃）多
各（这）就是我要为侬唱额（的）一支歌

Why am I never tired of seeing you
This is the song I want to sing for you
