Colors of the Wind – 英语/中文 双语歌词

• 作者: Vanessa Williams

歌词与翻译

[中文]

你以为你可以占有任何你踩到的土地

大地只是你能宣称的死物

但我知道每一块岩石、每棵树、每个生灵

都有生命、有灵魂、有名字

你以为唯一的人类是

那些看起来像你、想得像你的人

但如果你踏上陌生人的足迹

你会学到你从未知道的知识 你从未知道的知识

你有没有听过狼对着蓝色玉米月亮吠叫

或者问过咧嘴笑的山猫为什么它在笑？

你能用山脉的所有声音歌唱吗？

你能用风的所有色彩绘画吗？

你能用风的所有色彩绘画吗？

来跑过森林隐藏的松树小径

来品尝大地阳光甜美的浆果

来沉浸在你周围的所有财富里

就一次，别去想它们值多少钱

雨暴和河流是我的兄弟

苍鹭和水獭是我的朋友

我们都互相连接着

在一个永不结束的圆圈里

你有没有听过狼对着蓝色玉米月亮吠叫

或者让鹰告诉你它去过哪里

你能用山脉的所有声音歌唱吗？

你能用风的所有色彩绘画吗？

你能用风的所有色彩绘画吗？

美国梧桐能长多高？

如果你砍倒它，你永远不会知道

你永远不会听到狼对着蓝色玉米月亮吠叫

无论我们是白皮肤还是铜色的皮肤

我们都需要用山脉的所有声音歌唱

需要用风的所有色彩绘画

你可以占有大地 仍旧

你唯一占有的只是大地 直到

你能用风的所有色彩绘画为止

Compositores: Alan Menken / Stephen Schwartz

[英语]

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 to the blue corn moon

Or asked the grinning bobcat why he 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 rainstorm and the river are my brothers

The heron and the otter 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 to the blue corn moon

Or let the eagle tell you where he's 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 to 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
