灌水【民謠】【5/77讀書筆記系列之《昆蟲記》】之五：《泥壺蜂》中英

Yisselakh

曲風參考：

The Collection的Sing of the Moon


「孤獨的小屋門前，無花果樹蔭掩著門前的井」這個意境是原文提供的，
原文說： "Her usual refuge is the peasant』s lonely cottage, with its old fig-tree shading the well in front of the door. "
而我更多的是取其象征主義，同時自己加了以泥壺蜂的第一視角描寫她路過無花果樹時與裏面躲著的榕小蜂［榕小蜂科（學名：Agaonidae）］產生的互動。一首寓言詞。


泥壺蜂

By: Yisselakh

Verse 1:

你飛過的那一瞬間
有沒有許一個願
為了誰還有哪一天
算了， 不管了， 顧好眼前
風中的無花果葉 輕輕撫過你的臉
她說要勇往直前， 她說要勇往直前
濃霧後面就是你向往的家園

Refrain:

在那之前
無花果樹永遠
守望在許願井邊
無花果樹永遠
守望在許願井邊
無花果樹永遠
守望在許願井邊

Verse 2:

你飛過榕小蜂身邊
它們有沒有抱怨
哪來的陌客與泥巖
飛來， 又飛去， 雲幕後面
遠向無花果天邊， 像傳說或者預言
它們問哪是終點， 它們問哪是終點
濃霧後面就是我向往的家園

Refrain:

在那之前
無花果樹永遠
守望在許願井邊
無花果樹永遠
守望在許願井邊
無花果樹永遠
守望在許願井邊

CODA:

唯願我們永遠在暖光之間
唯願我們永遠在暖光之間
唯願我們永遠在暖光之間
微笑無言， 無怨
微笑無言， 無怨

Mason Wasp

Verse 1:

When you flew past it just now
Did you make a wish in the wishing well
For what, when, where, whom and how?
Oh well, focus now
In the wind the fig leaves sway and swell
It caresses your face, as you race
Towards the veil

Refrain:

Beyond the fig tree
And the wishing well
Beyond the fig tree
And the wishing well
Beyond the fig tree
And the wishing well

Verse 2:

Were you seen by the fig wasps
As the stranger carrying strange mud
Building your home beyond the mist
Did they think it was a myth
They wondered aloud
This Agaonidae crowd
What are you building beyond the cloud

Refrain:

Beyond the fig tree
And the wishing well
Beyond the fig tree
And the wishing well
Beyond the fig tree
And the wishing well

CODA:

Among endless warmth I dwell
Among endless warmth I dwell
Among endless warmth I dwell
