black eyed peas---the apl song
是一首歌..歌词如下:
Lapit mga kaibigan at makinig kayo
Ako'y padadalang, balita galing sa bayan ko
Yaung pamamahagi ang mga kuento
Ng manga pangyayaring ganaganap
Sa lupang pinangako
(Come together and listen
I brought news from my native land
I'll tell you how we live and what goes on
From my beloved homeland.)
Every place got a ghetto this is my version
Check it out...
Listen closely yo, I got a story to tell
A version of my ghetto where life felt for real
Some would call it hell but to me it was heaven
God gave me the grace, amazin' ways of living
How would you feel if you had to catch your meal?
Build a hut to live and to eat and chill in.
Having to pump the water outta the ground
The way we put it down utilizing what is around
Like land for farming, river for fishing
Everyone helpin' each other whenever they can
We makin' it happen, from nothin' to somethin'
That's how we be survivin' back in my homeland
Yo, its been a while but...
I been back home to my homeland, (check it out) to see what's going on
Man it feels good to be back at home
And it's been a decade, on the journey all alone
I was fourteen when I first left Philippines
I've been away half my life, but it felt like a day
To be next to my mom with her home cooked meal
Meant I felt complete, my emotions I feel!
Now life has changed for me in the U.S
But back at home man, life was a mess...
I guess sometimes life's stresses gets you down
On your knees, oh brother I wish I could have helped you out...

王蓉<<爸爸妈妈>>应该只是在旋律上用了THE APL SONG的,但是歌词完全不相干.
这是我前天翻译的,大家看看有什么地方需要修改的.
(大家凑过来听听)（我从我祖国带来了些讯息）（我将告诉你关于我的现在和未来）（从我深爱的家园）（我要讲述的是任何一个有贫民窟的地方）（请专心点，我有个故事要讲述）（一幅我生活真实状况的情景）（有人说它是地狱，但我曾经认为它是天堂）（老天曾给我恩赐，带来生活的惊喜）（当你为吃饱饭而不得不终日奔走你将有什么感觉？）（找到个茅舍在里过着寒酸的生活）（弄块提地予以浇灌）（能为自己阔步的道路实际就在身旁）（就像为了耕作的土地，为了渔猎的河流）（人人都能尽力互相帮助）（这就是我回到家得到的救赎）（它是这样，但是。。。。。）（我曾回到家想去看去要发生些什么）（伙计，回到家的感觉好极了）（从10年前我就开始孤独旅程）（我第一次从菲律宾离开只有14岁）（我已过了半生，但感觉它只是一天）（依偎在我妈妈旁边享受着家庭的美食）（我完全找到了自己，感触了自己）（如今在美国的日子已经改善）（但当我回到家，以前的生活看起来仍是噩梦）（我想有时候生活迫使你屈服）（压在你的膝盖上，我愿能帮你解脱）
