Michael Crawford - The Music of the Night

【The Music of the Night】

Night-time sharpens, heightens each sensation
Darkness stirs and wakes imagination
Silently, the senses abandon their defenses

Slowly, gently, night unfolds its splendor
Grasp it, sense it, tremulous and tender
Turn your face away from the garish light of day
Turn your thoughts away from cold, unfeeling light
And listen to the music of the night

Close your eyes and surrender to your darkest dreams
Purge your thoughts of the life you knew before
Close your eyes, let your spirit start to soar
And you’ll live as you never lived before

Softly, deftly, music shall caress you
Hear it, feel it, secretly possess you
Open up your mind, let your fantasies unwind
In this darkness that you know you cannot fight
The darkness of the music of the night

Let your mind start a journey through a strange, new world
Leave all thoughts of the life you knew before
Let your soul take you where you long to be
Only then can you belong to me

Floating, falling, sweet intoxication
Touch me, trust me, savor each sensation
Let the dream begin, let your darker side give in
To the power of the music that I write
The power of the music of the night

You alone can make my song take flight
Help me make the music of the night
　
　
　
《夜之韻》
　
夜沈澱了　渲染開了感覺
黑暗輕晃　喚醒想像世界
神智靜悄悄的　解除一切防備
　
悠然　柔然　夜綻放出美麗
顫動　握住　放輕柔去感受
把白天浮誇的光彩拋到腦後
把冰冷無情的光給忘掉
來傾聽這一首夜之韻律
　
閉上眼　轉投向最陰暗的夢境
把往事從思海清洗淨盡
閉上眼　讓心神開始高飛
妳就會得到全新的生命
　
輕然 盈然　音樂撫慰著妳
聽吧 它在　悄悄的支配妳
去打開心窗　釋放一切奇妙幻想
在這片無法抗拒的漆黑裡
在夜之韻的無際黑暗裡
　
讓妳心在陌生世界展開旅程
把往昔的一點一滴捨棄
讓靈魂帶妳到那烏托邦
到那刻　妳才會屬於我
　
漂浮　墜落　最甜蜜的沈溺
觸摸　相信　細味每絲感受
讓夢幻降臨　接受黑暗面佔領
臣服在我所寫的夜之韻裡
這就是夜之韻的魔力
　
只妳能　讓我的歌展翅
輔助我寫出夜之韻律

－－太愛這首歌，每聽必感動，
所以這次的歌詞我決定不參考網路資源，
自己一手翻譯出來，
向魅影致敬。

歌詞與旋律是夢幻組合，
在副歌部分旋律開始高昂的時候，歌詞也相應奔放；
這是一首非常溫柔、卻又潛藏著不可違抗的強大力量的歌，
整首充滿催眠和暗示，
從旋律到歌詞都引導聽的人徹底放鬆身心，
拋棄傷痕，渾然忘我......
　
實在是一首非閉上眼睛去細聽不可的神作；
所以某程度上，它也是相當有效的安眠藥 (笑)
　
這就是歌劇魅影的魔力。
