有些爱需要祭奠,有些爱需要拯救,若是真爱。
圣诞前夜嗅着香暖的咖啡在一个留学德国的中国博客上邂逅了《Whiskey Lullaby 》。听,旋律哀伤、从容,像暗夜飞雪中流浪的枯叶。听……想象两个异邦情侣无缘续爱的殇。想象威斯忌酒瓶的绝望和懊悔的残液。想象落默的烟蒂一段段吸狁年轻的生命。想象哭泣的爱神是怎样指引他和她扣动扳机用杀戮成就爱……想,中西方不同文化背景下真爱的统一性。想,潸然泪下!
爱情是纯洁的。那种简洁的近乎贫瘠、愚蠢的挚热,没有矫饰,甚至于言传,但力如千磐。那是真爱!《巴黎圣母院》中丑陋正义的卡西莫多与邪恶的神父弗罗拉、虚伪的国王卫队队长菲比斯在不该上演悲剧的圣地粉墨登场,演绎人格斗争。曲终人散后,卡西莫多用自豪的钟声告诉人们,真爱必须清澈无华,与权力势力甚至于美丽无关。只有他——卡西莫多有资格获得埃斯米拉达的真爱。
爱情是无畏的。那种大难来临时以为自己可以撑着天让爱人逃生的勇敢,那种舍了江山也要做一回真我的绝觉。看似犯混,其实真爱!唐山地震时,娇弱的妻用毅力背负楼板只到爱人获生那一刻才弃爱而终。2006年江苏某市广场,那场令国人动容的“小小醒来吧”的植物人新娘婚礼。这些貌似悲剧的故事在佐证,有一种爱可能会没有幸福的未来,甚至于自我终结。但那是真爱!要不怎会有霸王别姬的代代唱传。
爱情需要智慧。爱的智慧不是趋利避害,是化爱为力,化爱为无,化爱为永恒的幸福。《泰坦尼克号》中,沉船带走了JACK(杰克)的生命却留下了爱情,一句叮咛“好好地活着”使 ROSE(罗丝)享爱一生。“生命是短暂的,但这一刻它却如此强大,甚至大过了他(她)再次站起来回到生活中的力量。”是真爱。而爱一个人,勇敢地、微笑地、好好地活着是爱的飞魂。爱情需要智慧不需要节日!
今夜无眠,听天使歌唱:Whiskey Lullaby
She put him out like the burnin' end of a midnight cigarette
她离开了他,如同一支在午夜燃尽的香烟
She broke his heart he spent his whole life tryin' to forget
她伤透了他的心,他将要用他的余生去忘记
We watched him drink his pain away a little at a time
在很短的时间里我们望见他喝完了他心中的痛
But he never could get drunk enough to get her off his mind
可他却从未喝到足以让她从他的心中离去
Until the night
直到那晚
He put that bottle to his head and pulled the trigger
他把酒瓶放在了头上并扣动了手枪的扳机
And finally drank away her memory
最终他喝完了所有关于她的记忆
Life is short but this time it was bigger
生命是短暂的,但这一刻它却如此强大
Than the strength he had to get up off his knees
甚至大过了他再次站起来回到生活中的力量
We found him with his face down in the pillow
我们发现他倒在枕头上
With a note that said I'll love her till I die
而在枕边的一个便笺上写着:“我爱她直至我生命终结的那一刻。”
And when we buried him beneath the willow
当我们把他安葬在低垂的柳树下时
The angels sang a whiskey lullaby
天使们唱起了威士忌安魂曲
The rumors flew but nobody knew how much she blamed herself
谣言四起,可却无人知晓她是多么的自责
For years and years she tried to hide the whiskey on her breath
年复一年她沉溺于酗酒
She finally drank her pain away a little at a time
最终在很短的时间里她喝完了她心中的苦
But she never could get drunk enough to get him off her mind
可她却从未喝到足以让他从她的心中离去
Until the night
直到那晚
She put that bottle to her head and pulled the trigger
她把酒瓶放在了头上并扣动了手枪的扳机
And finally drank away his memory
最终她喝完了所有关于他的记忆
Life is short but this time it was bigger
生命是短暂的,但这一刻它却如此强大,
Than the strength she had to get up off her knees
甚至大过了她重新站起来回到生活中的力量
We found her with her face down in the pillow
我们发现她倒在枕头上
Clinging to his picture for dear life
紧紧握着亲爱的他的相片
We laid her next to him beneath the willow
我们把她安葬在低垂的柳树下,紧靠在他的身旁
While the angels sang a whiskey lullaby
那刻天使们唱起了威士忌安魂曲
(赠世间需要祭奠爱和拯救爱的人)
