英文歌曲：Yesterday Once More

When I was¹ young I'd listen to the radio
Waiting for my favorite² songs
When they played I'd sing along³,
It make me smile.

当我还年轻的时候
就喜欢收听电台广播


 
等我最喜爱的歌
我会随之一同吟唱
这真使我高兴异常
I'd listen to the radio中I'd是I would的缩略形式，当表示过去习惯性的动作时，英语里常用would来表示。

favorite是形容词，意为‘最喜欢的“。

sing along意为”跟着一起唱，随着唱“，along是副词，用来表示伴随动作。

Those were such⁴ happy times and not so long ago
How I wondered⁵ where they'd gone.
But they're back again just like a long lost friend
All the songs I love so well.
Every shalala every wo'wo
still shines⁶.
Every shing-a-ling-a-ling that they're starting to sing
so fine

那是些快乐的时光
就在不久以前
不知道为何寻它不见
现在它们再次出现
就像久违的老朋友
所有的歌曲都让我喜欢
每个shalalala
每个wowo依然发亮
每个shingalingaling
歌声是如此的美妙

not so long ago指不久以前，这里的long表示时间的长短。

How I wondered where they'd gone.这句话中wonder是动词，意为”感到疑惑(好奇)，想知道“；where they'd gone是where they had⁷ gone的缩略形式，是过去完成时，表示在过去那些美好的时光就消逝了。

But they're back again just like a long lost friend，这句话中they指上句的happy times； a long lost friend意为”久违的朋友“，long是副词，形容时间长，lost指”失去联系的“。

Every shalala every wo'wo这句话中的shalala何wo wo都是象声词，指歌手听收音机时里面播放的歌曲。shine是动词，意为”闪光“，这里应该是说，那些曾经使自己感动的歌曲，现在听来依旧使自己心潮澎湃。

When they get to the part⁸
where he's breaking her heart⁹
It can really make me cry
just like before.
It's yesterday once more.
(Shoobie do lang lang)
(Shoobie do lang lang)
Looking bak on how it was in years gone by
And the good times that had
makes today seem¹⁰ rather¹¹ sad,
So much has changed.

当歌儿唱到他使她伤心
我也会泪流满面犹如昨日重现
回首往事不再的岁月
想起过去的好时光
让我徒生悲伤
世间已有太多的改变
