Starry Starry Night --- 蓝星夜

Starry, starry night.
Paint your palette blue and grey,
Look out on a summer's day,
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul.
Shadows on the hills,
Sketch the trees and the daffodils,
Catch the breeze and the winter chills,
In colors on the snowy linen land.

Now I understand what you tried to say to me,
How you suffered for your sanity,
How you tried to set them free.
They would not listen, they did not know how.
Perhaps they'll listen now.

Starry, starry night.
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze,
Swirling clouds in violet haze,
Reflect in Vincent's eyes of china blue.
Colors changing hue, morning field of amber grain,
Weathered faces lined in pain,
Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand.

Now I understand what you tried to say to me,
How you suffered for your sanity,
How you tried to set them free.
They would not listen, they did not know how.
Perhaps they'll listen now.

For they could not love you,
But still your love was true.
And when no hope was left in sight
On that starry, starry night,
You took your life, as lovers often do.
But I could have told you, Vincent,
This world was never meant for one
As beautiful as you.

Starry, starry night.
Portraits hung in empty halls,
Frameless head on nameless walls,
With eyes that watch the world and can't forget.
Like the strangers that you've met,
The ragged men in the ragged clothes,
The silver thorn of bloody rose,
Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow.

Now I think I know what you tried to say to me,
How you suffered for your sanity,
How you tried to set them free.
They would not listen, they're not listening still.
Perhaps they never will...

    在梵高世界里泪眼婆娑、、、其实这是写给Theo的,梵高的书信。 Irving Stone的序写得无比感人,如果谁可以翻成中文还能让我继续感动,那多好。。。

    “Van Gogh was one of the world's loneliest souls"、、、" Each night, when the fourteen to sixteen hours drawing and painting were over, Vincent sat down with pen and ink and poured out his heart to Theo. There was no idea or thought too small, no happening too trivial, no element of his craft too insignificant , no scene too unimportant for Vincent to communicate to the ONLY other living person who considered his every word and feeling precious"、、、

    也许象古话说的,人生得一知己足矣了、在梵高异常纠结的人生里,Theo是他唯一的支撑,作为梵高的粉丝,不能不记住他~
    • 梵高是幸运的,他还有一个精神伴侣,没有完全的孤独。
      • :-)...
      • 望眼的最孤独
        • 葱、葱、快点加班做玉米面饼子,下面人家青青我帮你约好了,就看你的手艺功夫了,别忘我那份儿、、、这比什么UGG等等的要求低多了,是过日子的样子。LOL
          • 这天太热,UGG不实用,还是玉米饼子管饱
          • 叫你们瞎搞,
            今天电话面试performance太差了,我自己都忍受不了了
            电话信号忽强忽弱,把我彻底搞晕了,听不清说不明,英语说的这个烂啊,
            别窝窝头了,有面试听力材料的给我一些
            • 我LP的经验,比较灵
              1。借一部故事片,看5-6遍。第一遍一定要把所有生词扫清,勿急。
              2。这样看5-6个故事片。
              3。熟悉一下你的专业词汇。
      • 你觉得孤独的时候说一声,葱花请你吃玉米饼子,我请你吃玉米面窝头。:)
        • 刚突然想到好像有些日子没看到你上来了,过来一看,呵呵,出现了。。 可我不孤独啊,还能不能吃得到玉米面饼子和窝头? 呵呵 :)
          • 等着,我让人抓紧做哈。
            • 敢情你就口头布置任务给老葱啊?哈哈~~
        • 玉米面窝头和钢丝面,金灿灿的,钩起许多回忆。
    • 看到这样的文字让我很感动, 忍不住把英文翻译了一下
      梵高是世界上最孤独的灵魂之一、、、

      每个夜晚,当Vincent结束了14到16个小时的绘画以后,他会坐下来,用他的笔和墨水来铺陈他的心灵给Theo。Vincent 深知,没有任何一个念头和想法很渺小,没有任何一件事情很微不足道,没有任何一个他的艺术元素是毫无价值,没有一点点感触是毫无意义,可以阻碍他不去跟这世界唯一的另一个生命-去交流,只有Theo,才会仔细地去感受和珍爱他写的每一个字。
      • "Vincent 深知","可以阻碍他不去", 原文没有,加上意思就走了。
        • 添油加醋过了:)
      • 这样的文章都是矫情者捏造出来骗小姑娘眼泪的,好像他们是他肚里蛔虫似的
        • 知音版的梵高爱情故事,呵呵
        • 能写得好看就行了,哈哈
          • 发现排比句真的很厉害,朗诵的时候特别煽情~
            • 是的,特别是一些小词组成的排比句...
        • 多说一句哈,这个“序”统共就两页,是Irving Stone编辑了1600页Vincent写给Theo的信,更是他研究了画家生平,写了‘梵高传’之后了、、、‘矫情’么?至少我不这么认为~
      • Pretty Nice...:-)
        • ...:-)
      • red face?
    • 心晴又开始无题了,好。不过这个也太偷懒了,鄙视!
      • 不想浪费大家太多时间~~
        • 哼!
          • 学会撒娇了?
          • 呵呵,你贴个照片什么的,我倒是可以原谅你的‘鄙视’~~~
            • 哼,哼!
    • 春天来了,听听这样演绎的 vincent
      • :-)... Don McLean 的演绎始终是大爱~
      • Blue! ...

    • ZT: 华人留学生 毁梵高价值1亿名画 !!!
      本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛1日,一名华人留学生的行为震惊了整个澳洲,这名叫Luky Cheng的TAFE留学生于中午12:10分,冲进正在堪培拉展出的法国巴黎大师画展,用易燃性液体泼向名画,并用随身携带的打火机点燃,此人目前已被警方控制。

      据来自现场的消息,被焚烧的名画为Vincent VAN GOGH所作,名为Portrait of the artist,1887年所作(即著名的梵高自画像之一),损坏程度仍然无法确认,之前梵高的自画像《没胡子的自己》于1998年以7150万美元卖出,对于这次名画遭受的损失,有可能在数千万美元以上。

      对于一个学生如何将危险性液体带入展会,警方正在展开调查询问,对于艺术界和即将到来的复活节而言,名画的损毁是一种难以用金钱估量的巨大损失。已经得到的消息是,这名学生做出如此报复性行为的原因可能来自于上月陆克文政府公布将大幅减少优先移民职业的政策,对于这位家庭条件较差,一心为了移民到达澳洲的留学生而言,用来获得永居的一些主要职位在本月已经从清单草案中被删除。

      “回去也没什么意思,家里还欠着债,”这位学生的供词中显现出悲观和绝望,对于自己的行为,Luky Cheng称其本想通过制造一些麻烦来扩大影响,被抓住也就算了,没想到居然能够如此顺利的作案。早在3月份,这位学生就在本地华人BBS中发表过自己的想法:“留了好几年居然移不了民了,这样的政府还不如解散算了”,“早晚我炸了Council”等等。

      众多人士纷纷质疑会场的安保情况为何能够如此松散:“这是一场灾难”,堪培拉国家博物馆的馆长Ron Radford表示:“当伟大的艺术损毁与战争,洪水等自然灾害,我们为之痛苦和流泪,当人们蓄意破坏来自人类历史的艺术遗产时,他们的动机简直让人发疯。”

      “我们却是没有足够的准备应付这种情况的发生,”当地的警察和安全管理部门如此回应,“我们有必要的安检措施,可仍然没有阻止悲剧的发生。”

      留学教育产业一直是澳洲的重要财政来源和收入之一,在留学生纷纷涌入的同时,对于移民的需求也在显著上升,这一次的极端事件,有必要引起当地政府和管理机构的重视,案情进一步的细节仍在调查当中。更多精彩文章及讨论,请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net
      • 唉~
    • 看不懂梵高大师的画作,更喜欢明四家和清初四王的画。
