本次世界杯登陆非洲不但是球迷的福音,也同样是广大乐迷的福音,最让人疯狂的体育赛事加上最能歌善舞的人民,真不知道会产生多少经典歌曲!下面为大家简单介绍下《Waka waka》这首歌。“Waka”是斯瓦西里语词汇,有“火焰”“闪耀”等意思。副歌名“非洲时刻”。此歌曲的MV还有3D版本的。另外,既然是shakira演唱的,不出所料还有西班牙语版:Waka Waka(Esto es áfrica) 。强烈建议大家试听,相比起英语版,西语版有着拉美人民特有的激情。以下为英语歌词:
Waka Waka (This Time For Africa)
You're a good soldier/Choosing your battles/Pick yourself up/And dust yourself off/And back in the saddle/You're on the frontline/Everyone's watching/You know it's serious/We're getting closer/This isn’t over/The pressure is on/You feel it/But you've got it all/Believe it/When you fall get up/Oh oh.../And if you fall get up/Eh eh.../Tsamina mina/Zangalewa/Cuz this is Africa/Tsamina mina eh eh/Waka Waka eh eh/Tsamina mina zangalewa/This time for Africa/Listen to your god/This is our motto/Your time to shine/Dont wait in line/Y vamos por Todo/People are raising/Their Expectations/Go on and feed them/This is your moment/No hesitations/Today's your day/I feel it/You paved the way/Believe it/If you get down/Get up Oh oh.../When you get down/Get up eh eh.../Tsamina mina zangalewa/This time for Africa/Tsamina mina eh eh/Waka Waka eh eh/Tsamina mina zangalewa/Anawa aa/Tsamina mina eh eh/Waka Waka eh eh/Tsamina mina zangalewa/This time for Africa/Tsamina mina eh eh/Waka Waka eh eh/Tsamina mina zangalewa/Anawa aa/Tsamina mina eh eh/Waka Waka eh eh/Tsamina mina zangalewa/This time for Africa/Doon Goh... Eh eh/Doon Goh... Eh eh/Tsamina mina zangalewa/Anawa aa/Doon Goh... Eh eh/Doon Goh... Eh eh/Tsamina mina zangalewa/Anawa aa/This time for Africa/This time for Africa
歌词大意:
waka waka 非洲时刻
优秀的士兵,快振作起来!掸掉你身上的灰尘,跨着战马,投入战斗!你就在前线,大家都注视着你!你知道这不是开玩笑!战斗越来越激烈,离结束还早着呢!虽然压力很大,但相信我,你会胜利的!如果你跌倒就再站起来!加油!加油!因为这里是非洲!加油!加油!这一刻属于非洲!!
Tsamina mina zangalewa 什么意思?
“Tsamina”是一首歌曲的名字,由喀麦隆Makossa风格乐队“golden sounds”在1986年演唱,曲名也叫做“Zangaléwa”。这是喀麦隆的“芳族”人的语言。用英语念的话,发音就像:Za mina mina zangalewa。这首歌非常受欢迎,以至于乐队后来直接改名叫做“Zangaléwa”了(汗啊,居然这么受欢迎……)。这首歌歌颂了为二战做出贡献的非洲士兵,乐队成员本身也是军人。时隔24年,这首歌依然在传唱。在喀麦隆的军队、警察、童子军、学生、运动员(和他们的粉丝)、拉力赛选手都会用这首歌为自己打气。考虑到歌曲的作用,类似于我国国歌中“起来!起来!起来!我们万众一心”,那就把它翻译成“加油”吧。如果硬要翻译的话,“Zaminamina”有英语中“come”的意思,“Waka”则有“Do it”的意思。“Zaminamina zangalewa”连起来的意思则是“where are you from?”。
