当你的琴音志在高山

他会说“巍巍乎若泰山”

当你的琴音志在流水

她会说“洋洋乎若江河”



"Falling Slowly" is a song in the indie folk and indie rock genres that was written, composed and performed by Glen Hansard and Markéta Irglová. The song was featured on the soundtrack of the 2007 Irish musical romance film Once, which starred Hansard and Irglová, and for which it won the Academy Award for Best Original Song at the 80th Academy Awards. The song was also recorded by Hansard's band The Frames.



The song was written and composed while Once was in production. The film's director and screenwriter, John Carney, developed the script around songs which Hansard and Irglová had provided to him. In the movie, the duo plays the song in the Waltons Music shop across from the George's Street Arcade in Dublin, with Hansard on guitar and Irglová on piano. The couple performed it at gigs in various European venues over the next two years.

「Falling Slowly」
「缓缓落下」

don't know you

我不懂你

But I want you

但愿同你在一起

All the more for that

分享生活的点点滴滴

Words fall through me

找不到合适的话语形容

And always fool me

想说却总是词不达意

And I can't react

无可奈何无法回应

And games that never amount

这场爱会无疾而终吧

To more than they're meant

毫无意义

Will play themselves out

结束是或迟或早的问题

Take this sinking boat and point it home

搭乘这艘即将沉没的船缓缓归去

We've still got time

或许我们还有机会挽回

Raise your hopeful voice, you have a choice

你可以做出选择 让我听到你说愿意

You've make it now

但我知道你心意已决



Falling slowly, eyes that know me

欲哭无泪 心如死灰

And I can't go back

我明白一切覆水难收

Moods that take me and erase me

悲伤将我吞噬

And I'm painted black

世界一片混沌

Well, you have suffered enough

在自我的内心斗争里

And warred with yourself

你也身心俱疲

It's time that you won

这次你也该赢了

Take this sinking boat and point it home

搭乘这艘即将沉没的船缓缓归去

We've still got time

或许我们还有时间挽回

Raise your hopeful voice, you have a choice

你可以做出选择 让我听到你说愿意

You've made it now

但我知道你心意已决

Falling slowly sing your melody

万念俱灰间慢慢唱着你的旋律

I'll sing along

我也会附和你的歌声

I paid the cost too late, now you are gone

我付出了代价 太迟了 现在你已远去
