奥斯卡最佳歌曲——I Need To Wake Up

本届奥斯卡最佳纪录长篇《难以忽视的真莫道不消魂相》(An Inconvenient Truth)还获得最佳歌曲奖~~~~~
这部纪有暗香盈袖录片,是戈尔先生近年来致力于推动大众对全球变暖问题的研究和重视所做努力的一部分,亲自参与演出和制作此片。在这部戈尔相当重视的影片中,邀请了美国著名女歌手玛丽萨-艾瑟里奇(Melissa Etheridge)为之创作和演唱影片主题歌《我需要清醒》(I Need to Wake Up)。

歌词(中文是米自行加的。。。。):
Have I been sleeping?             我是不是睡着了
I’ve been so still               我一动也不敢动
Afraid of crumbling             害怕一切消失无踪
Have I been careless?            我是不是很粗心
Dismissing all the distant rumblings    无视那远处的隆隆作响
Take me where I am supposed to be  带我去我应该去的地方
To comprehend the things that I can’t see  去理解(隐藏在事物背后)我所看不到的一切

Cause I need to move    我要发动
I need to wake up      我要清醒
I need to change        我要改变
I need to shake up      我要震撼
I need to speak out     我要呐喊
Something’s got to break up    一些东西需要被打破
I’ve been asleep       我正沉睡着
And I need to wake up     但现在
Now                         我要清醒过来~~~

And as a child                孩提时
I danced like it was 1999         我跳着唱着就像在世纪末的1999
My dreams were wild            我的梦想无拘无束
But the promise of this new world         但这个新世界的未来希望
Would be mine              和我息息相关(直译:是我的希望)
Now I am throwing off the carelessness of youth   现在我抛开那无忧无虑的青春
To listen to an inconvenient truth           去聆听那难以忽视的真莫道不消魂

Well I need to move    我要发动
I need to wake up      我要清醒
I need to change        我要改变
I need to shake up      我要震撼
I need to speak out     我要呐喊
Something’s got to break up    一些东西需要被打破
I’ve been asleep       我正沉睡着
And I need to wake up     但现在
Now                         我要清醒过来~~~

I am not an island      我并不是只身一人
I am not alone        我也并不孤单
I am my intentions       我有我的意志
Trapped here in this flesh and bone    融入到这骨肉躯壳中

And I need to move    而且我要动起
I need to wake up     我要清醒
I need to change       我要改变
I need to shake up     我要震撼
I need to speak out    我要呐喊
Something’s got to break up    一些东西需要被打破
I’ve been asleep        我正沉睡着
And I need to wake up      但现在
Now                  我要清醒过来~~~

I want to change     我要去改变
I need to shake up     我要去震撼
I need to speak out    我要去呐喊
Something’s got to break up    一些东西需要被打破
I’ve been asleep        我正沉睡着
And I need to wake up     但现在
Now                   我要清醒过来~~~
