從小,就很喜歡這首歌了,
無論是單憑旋律,還是整首歌曲,
總是可以讓我不知不覺陷入進去,
有看迪士尼卡通的,對這首歌一定不會太陌生,
沒錯,這首"Colors of the wind"就是"Pocahontas"的主題曲,
我記得,我國小的時候,
有同學很會彈琴,恰巧也會這首歌,
我總要求著,希望他可以彈奏這首歌,
有此可見,我對這首歌癡迷的程度。

以前,這首"Colors of the wind"就有不少的歌手唱,
從最一開始的Vanessa Williams到CoCo Lee李玟,
到最近我聽到好久不見的Faye Lin林凡翻唱,
不同的人,不同的味道,
同一首歌,卻唱出不一樣的故事,
這算不算一種音樂的魔法,
用這樣撼動人心的魔法,
編寫出精采的故事。

這首Colors of the wind,
對我而言,或許是我最早接觸的外文歌曲,
畢竟小時候,很少會有動力去尋找外文歌曲收聽,
能收聽到的機會,便是在觀看卡通的時候,
而這首歌,或許當時我無法得知他在唱些什麼,
但在不斷不斷的聆聽之下,大概了解到敘訴的內容,
這首Colors of the wind,應該可以說是我對英文歌曲的啟蒙吧。

Colors of the wind
作詞:Stephen Schwarts 作曲:Alan Menken 編曲:Mei Mei Shuem

You think you own whatever land you land on
The earth is just a dead thing you can claim
But I know every rock and tree and creature
Has a life, has a spirit, has a name
You think the only people who are people
Are the people who look and think like you
But if you walk the footsteps of a stranger
You'll learn things you never knew you never knew
Have you ever heard the wolf cry the blue corn moon
Or asked the gring bobcat why be grinned
Can you sing with all the voices of the mountain?
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?
Come run the hidden pine trails of the forest
Come taste the sun-sweet berries of the earth
Come roll in all the riches all around you
And for once, never wonder what they're worth
The rainstrom and the river are my brothers
The beron and the other are my friends
And we are all connected to each other
In a circle, in a hoop that never ends
Have you ever heard the wolf cry the blue corn moon
Or let the eagle tells you where he has been
Can you sing with all the voices of the mountain?
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?
How high does the sycamore grow?
If you cut it down, then you'll never know
And you'll never hear the wolf cry the blue corn moon
For whether we are white or copper-skinned
We need to sing with all the voices of the mountain
Need to paint with all the colors of the wind
You can own the earth and still
All you'll own is earth until
You can paint with all the colors of the wind

你認為可以擁有你踏上的任何一塊土地
大地是死的,你可以聲明所有權
但我知道每一塊岩石、每一棵樹和每一個生靈
都有生命、靈魂和名字
你認為真正高等的人類
是外表、想法和你一樣的人
但如果你跟隨陌生人的腳步
你可以學到從來不知道的事
你可曾聽過狼對著藍月嗥叫的聲音
你可曾問過微笑的山貓為何而笑
( 或讓老鷹告訴你牠去過的地方 )
你能否隨著群山的聲音歌唱
你能否用風的顏色來作畫
你能否用風的顏色來作畫
到森林裡那些隱藏在松樹下的小徑奔跑
品嚐大地上充滿陽光甜味的野莓
在你身邊豐饒的大自然中打滾
絕對不要懷疑它們的價值
暴雨和河流是我的兄長
蒼鷺和水獺是我的朋友
我們彼此心手相連
連成一個無盡的圓
楓樹能長到多高
如果你砍倒它,那你永遠無法知道
你將永遠聽不見狼對著藍月嗥叫的聲音
不論我們的膚色是白色或古銅色
我們應該隨著群山的聲音歌唱
我們應該用風的顏色來畫畫
你可以擁有大地
但你所有的就只是大地
你可以用風的顏色來作畫
