     【青春の光と影】 Both Sides Now

 

 

Both Sides, Now  作詞作曲 Joni Mitchell

 

Bows and flows of angel hair

And ice cream castles in the air

And feather canyons everywhere

I've looked at clouds that way

 

But now they only block the sun

They rain and snow on everyone

So many things I would have done

But clouds got in my way

 

I've looked at clouds from both sides now

From up and down, and still somehow

It's cloud illusions I recall

I really don't know clouds at all

 

Moons and Junes and Ferris wheels

The dizzy dancing way you feel

As every fairy tale comes real

I've looked at love that way

 

But now it's just another show

You leave 'em laughing when you go

And if you care, don't let them know

Don't give yourself away

 

I've looked at love from both sides now

From give and take, and still somehow

It's love's illusions I recall

I really don't know love at all

 

Tears and fears and feeling proud

To say "I love you" right out loud

Dreams and schemes and circus crowds

I've looked at life that way

 

Oh but now old friends are acting strange

They shake their heads, they say I've changed

Well something's lost but something's gained

In living every day

 

I've looked at life from both sides now

From WIN and LOSE and still somehow

It's life's illusions I recall

I really don't know life at all

 

I've looked at life from both sides now

From up and down and still somehow

It's life's illusions I recall

I really don't know life at all

 

 

     シンガーソングライターの

     ジョニ・ミッチェル Joni Mitchell が、

     作詞作曲をして、自分で歌っていました。

 

     下手(へた)くそな歌唱なので、

     メリー・ホプキン Mary Hopkin のビデオにしました。

 

     日本語訳は一杯ありますので、検索して下さい。

     フォークソング風の、曲と詞ですが、

     メロディが親しみやすかったのかしら。

     作曲者の歌声が、よくヒットしました。

 

     メリー・ホプキンのほうは、民謡歌手ですので、

     この手の曲は、お手のものかも知れません。

 

     奇麗な録音がなかったので、

     著作権にうるさい会社なのでしょう。

     わたしは、メリ・ホプキンの歌が耳に残っていますので、

     これにしました。
