在聽(tīng)這首歌,突然聽(tīng)歌詞里有 "china bule "這個(gè)詞,以前都沒(méi)注意過(guò)。

作為中國(guó)人,聽(tīng)到China就敏感。趕緊問(wèn)下度娘。

答曰(China Blue 指梵高自畫像里的眼睛的藍(lán)色,陶瓷般的藍(lán)。就是 中國(guó)青花瓷 的藍(lán)色。當(dāng)時(shí)荷蘭從中國(guó)進(jìn)口的青花瓷成為了暢銷品,隨著中國(guó)海禁斷了來(lái)源,于是荷蘭自己開(kāi)始仿制這種形制和花色的瓷器。尤其是在荷蘭的代爾夫特的特別出名,現(xiàn)被稱為代爾夫(DelftBlauw)Delftware。


Starry, starry night

paint your palette blue and grey

look out on a summer's day

with eyes that know the darkness in my soul.

Shadows on the hills

sketch the trees and the daffodils

catch the breeze and the winter chills

in colors on the snowy linen land.

And now I understand

what you tried to say to me

and how you suffered for your sanity

and how you tried to set them free.

They would not listen they did not know how

perhaps they'll listen now.

Starry starry night

flaming flowers that brightly blaze

swirling clouds in violet haze

reflect in Vincent's eyes of China blue.

Colors changing hue

morning fields of amber grain

weathered faces lined in pain

are smoothed beneath the artist's loving hand.

And now I understand

what you tried to say to me

and how you suffered for your sanity

and how you tried to set them free.

They would not listen they did not know how

perhaps they'll listen now.

For they could not love you

but still your love was true

and when no hope was left in sight on that

starry starry night.

You took your life as lovers often do,

But I could have told you Vincent

this world was never meant for one as beautiful as you.

Starry starry night

portraits hung in empty halls

frameless heads on nameless walls

with eyes that watch the world and can't forget.

Like the stranger that you've met

the ragged men in ragged clothes

the silver thorn of bloddy rose

lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow.

And now I think I know

what you tried to say to me

and how you suffered for your sanity

and how you tried to set them free.

They would not listen they're not listening still

perhaps they never will.
