Paroles et traduction 張艾嘉 - 我的朋友

我的朋友

我有一个朋友 在这里我们就称他为李
好多年没有见到他了
突然去年来了个长途电话
说是想看某歌星的演唱会
虽然这演唱会的票子很难找
可是我还是想尽了办法找给他
我们约好了在一家咖啡厅见面
当我见到他的时候 我吓了一跳
本来就很瘦的他 现在怎么只剩下了一半
他的头发又干又黄 脸色又发黑
他一直跟我解释说
这一年多来他病了 可是现在好多了
他还带了一盒琵琶给我
说是从台湾特别带给我的
我把琵琶放在车厢后面 却忘了拿出来
几天以后 我打开车厢 发觉琵琶都烂了
过了几个月 台北传来了林的消息 他死了
死以前他不太愿意见任何人
他们都说 他是艾滋病死的
忘了说一件事情就是
那一次林还介绍了一个他的朋友给我认识 叫卢
人长得高高大大的
今年我居然接到了他的电话 又是要看演唱会
虽然和他不熟 可是看在林的份上我还是答应了
可是他居然还要求说我要看哪一天哪一场的
我心里想这个人怎么那么不客气
等他来了香港来拿票的时候
我也不客气地告诉他说
你要晓得这是我找人排队去买的
而且我买不到你要看的那一场 要不要随便你了
当然他还是要了
而且还约我在同一家咖啡厅见面
我不想和他喝咖啡 就说那我们在门口见好了
那天 那天我还迟到了
门口也不能停车 我急得不得了
突然 他敲我的窗子
我摇下了车窗 把票递了出去
卢急急忙忙塞了钱和又是一盒琵琶给我
我连忙说不要了 不要了
可是他已经跑走了
我一抬头看 我居然看到卢魁伟的身子现在只剩下了一半
他急忙地往前跑 身子在风里面飘呀飘的
我愣在那里 许久许久都没有办法动弹
我心里觉得好抱歉 为什么我会对他那么不客气
如果一个演唱会能够带给他快乐和一些美好的回忆
卢 请你不要忘记明年再打电话给我
我真的是觉得好抱歉我真的是觉得好抱歉
我真的是觉得好抱歉

My Friend

My friend is here, and we will call him Lee for now
It's been so many years since I last saw him
Last year, out of the blue, a long-distance call came
Wanting tickets to a concert of a certain singer
These concert tickets were hard to come by
But somehow, I managed to find it for him
We agreed to meet at a cafe
When I saw him, I was shocked
He used to be thin, but now he was skin and bones
His hair was dry and yellow, and his face was dark
He kept explaining to me,
Saying that he had gotten sick, but now he was better
He also brought me a pipa
Said that he brought it back from Taiwan specially for me
I put the pipa in the back of my car but forgot to take it out
Few days later, I opened the trunk, and the pipa was all rotten
A few months passed by, and then I got a message from Taipei, he had passed away
Before he passed, he didn’t want to see anyone
Everyone said he died of AIDS
Forgot to tell you, at that time,
Lee also introduced another friend to me by the name of Lu
He was tall and well-built
This year, I received his call, again for a concert
Even though we were not close, for the sake of Lee, I agreed
But then, he actually requested me to get the ticket for a specific day and show
I thought to myself, how can this person be so rude
When he came to Hong Kong to collect the tickets
I also told him matter-of-factly,
You must know that these tickets were queued up by someone
I couldn’t get you the ticket for the show you want, you can decide if you still want it or not
Of course, he still wanted it
And also requested for us to meet at the same cafe
I didn’t want to have coffee with him, so I said let’s just meet at the entrance
That day, I was late
Couldn’t park at the entrance, I was so anxious
Suddenly, he knocked on my car window
I rolled down my window and passed him the ticket
Without hesitation, Lu handed me the money and another pipa
I hurriedly told him, no, no, no
But he was already gone
As I looked up, I saw Lu Kweiwei’s body as it was now turned into skin and bones
He ran forward quickly in the wind
I stood there, unable to move for a long time
I felt so sorry, why was I so rude to him
If a concert could bring him happiness and some good memories
Lu, please don't forget to call me again next year
I really feel so sorry, I really feel so sorry
I really feel so sorry
