听歌学英语:你是我的唯一 Number One For Me
Maher Zain（马赫-仔）瑞典黎巴嫩裔音乐才子，歌声清透而深沉，曲风流行而不张扬，与AKON、ladyGaGa、Brandy等著名国际音乐人进行过合作，后厌恶了极致商业化的环境，回到瑞典，之后的作品唱出了对伊斯兰教坚定的信仰和颂扬真主安拉对世人的爱。在五月的尾巴上，偶然听到这样一首他献给母亲的歌，很想同你分享这份温情洋溢，旋律美妙，充满舐犊之情（parently love）的歌曲，Maher2012年推出的最新单曲——Number One For Me
i was a foolish little child
crazy things i used to do
and all the pain i put you through
mama now i’m here for you
for all the times i made you cry
the days i told you lies
now it’s time for you to rise
for all the things you sacrificed
oh, if i could turn back time rewind
if i could make it undone i swear that i would
i would make it up to you
mum i’m all grown up now
it’s a brand new day
i’d like to put a smile on your face every day
mum i’m all grown up now
and it’s not too late
i’d like to put a smile on your face every day
and now i finally understand your famous line
about the day i’d face in time
‘cause now i’ve got a child of mine and even though i was so bad
i’ve learned so much from you now i’m trying to do it too
love my kid the way you do
oh, if i could turn back time rewind
if i could make it undone i swear that i would
i would make it up to you
oh, if i could turn back time rewind
if i could make it undone i swear that i would
i would make it up to you
mum i’m all grown up now
it’s a brand new day
i’d like to put a smile on your face every day
mum i’m all grown up now
and it’s not too late
i’d like to put a smile on your face every day
you know you are the number one for me*3
oh, oh, number one for me
you know you are the number one for me*3
oh, oh, number one for me
there’s no one in this world that can take your place
oh, i’m sorry for ever taking you for granted, ooh
i will use every chance i get
to make you smile, whenever i’m around you
now i will try to love you like you love me
only god knows how much you mean to me
oh, if i could turn back time rewind
if i could make it undone i swear that i would
i would make it up to you
mum i’m all grown up now
it’s a brand new day
i’d like to put a smile on your face every day
mum i’m all grown up now
and it’s not too late
i’d like to put a smile on your face every day
mum i’m all grown up now
it’s a brand new day
i’d like to put a smile on your face every day
mum i’m all grown up now
and it’s not too late
i’d like to put a smile on your face every day
the number one for me*3
oh, oh, number one for me
我曾是一个很傻的孩子
做过很多疯狂的事
让你痛苦不堪
妈妈 现在我为你而来了
为那些我曾令你哭泣的岁月
为那些我总是撒谎的日子
现在该是你享受的时候了
为了你所付出的一切
如果我能让时光倒转
如果我能让生活复原 我发誓我会的
我会补偿给你的
妈妈现在我已长大
这是崭新的一天
我希望笑容每天都出现在你脸上
妈妈现在我长大
向你表达这一切还不太晚
我希望笑容每天都出现在你脸上
现在我终于明白你常挂在嘴边的话
总有一天我也会遇上同样的情形
现在我也孩子了，尽管过去我是如此的糟糕
我从你身上学到很多，现在我想要这么做了
像你一样来爱我的孩子们
如果我能让时光倒流
如果我能让生活复原 我发誓我会的
我会补偿给你的
如果我能让时光倒流
如果我能让生活复原 我发誓我会的
我会补偿给你的
妈妈现在我长大
这是崭新的一天
我希望笑容每天都出现在你脸上
妈妈现在我长大
向你表达这一切还不太晚
我希望笑容每天都出现在你脸上
要知道你在我心目中永远排第一*3
你是我的唯一
要知道你在我心目中永远排第一*3
你是我的唯一
这个世界无人能替代你
很抱歉 一直以来我把你的爱都视作理所当然
我会利用每次机会
尽我所能让你微笑 当我在你身边时
现在我会以我的方式来爱你
只有上帝知道你在我心中的分量
（同上）
歌词里暖暖得唱着：“我曾是一个很傻的孩子/做过很多疯狂的事/让你痛苦不堪/妈妈 现在我为你而来了/为那些我曾令你哭泣的岁月/为那些我总是撒谎的日子/现在该是你/享受的时候了/为了你所付出的一切/如果我能让时光倒转/我希望笑容每天都出现在你脸上……要知道的，你是我的唯一！”
我们不一定非得在母亲节，才向他们表达我们的关爱，今天我们就来深情说一说：
I want you to know you’re a wonderful mother and I’ve always known how lucky I’ve been throughout my life to have had you as my mom.
我想让你知道，你是一个很伟大的母亲。一直以来，我都庆幸此生能拥有你这样的母亲。
You were always there for me when I needed someone to be there, and I want you to know I will always be there for you.
在我需要依靠时，你一直在我身边。我想让你知道，我会一直陪在你身边。
I couldn’t have asked for a better mother. You’re always there to give excellent advice, make great food, or just listen.
对我而言，你是最好的母亲。你总能给我宝贵的建议，为我做可口的食物，或耐心倾听我的心声。
Thanks for always helping me to remember what is important in life ... and today it is you.
谢谢你让我明白人生中最重要的是什么，而今天，最重要的就是你。
While it’s too late for a lot of things, it’s not too late for me to tell you that even though I may not always be good at showing it, I love you very much.
我已错过了很多事，庆幸的是，我还来得及告诉你：也许我平时不擅表达我的爱，但我非常爱你。 |
