When you are old and gray and full of sleep,
And nodding by the fire,take down this book,
And slowly read,and dream of the soft look,
Your eyes had once,and of their shadows deep.

How many loved your moments of glad grace,
And loved your beauty with love false or true,
But one man loved the pilgrim soul in you,
And loved the sorrows of your changing face.

And bending down beside the glowing bars,
Murmur,a little sadly,how love fled,
And paced upon the mountains overhead,
And hid his face amid a crowd of stars.

作者：爱尔兰诗人叶芝（Yeats，1865-1939）

当你老去

当你年老白了头睡意稠
炉旁打盹请记下诗一首
漫回忆你也曾眼神温柔
眼角里几重阴影浓幽幽

多少人爱你年青漂亮的时候
真假爱不过给你的美貌引诱
只一人在内心深处爱你灵魂的圣洁
也爱你衰老的脸上泛起痛苦的纹沟

在烘红的炉旁低头回首
凄然地诉说爱情怎样溜走
如何跑到上方的山峦
然后把脸庞藏在群星里头

汝将老去 （樱宁）

当汝老去，青丝染霜
独伴炉火，倦意浅漾
请取此卷，曼声吟唱

回思当年，汝之飞扬
眼波深邃，顾盼流光
如花引蝶，众生倾狂
彼爱汝貌，非汝心肠

唯吾一人，爱汝心香
知汝心灵，圣洁芬芳
当汝老去，黯然神伤
唯吾一人，情意绵长

跪伴炉火，私语细量
爱已飞翔，越过高岗
爱已飞翔，遁入星光

2月25日，Glen Hansard与Markéta Irglová凭借《Falling Slowly》荣获第80届奥斯卡最佳歌曲奖。

个破奥斯卡折腾了一晚上也就这首歌还能听听。屠夫一旦玩起深情来，更他妈要人命。

又他妈是爱尔兰。

这个盛产音乐、屠夫与诗的国度，咋就这么遭我喜欢呢？

常常想，这世上每个人，除了孕育和毁灭肉身的物理故乡，应该还有一个超越时空的故乡吧，用以安放灵魂。对我来说，爱尔兰就是这么一个地方。澄静的天空，广袤的草原，安静的牛羊，绝世的古堡，深情的汉子，马背上的诗。。。和着悠扬的风笛声，那么纯净，如一滴水，似婴儿的眼睛。

一切看起来那么遥远，却让人感觉如此熟悉，亲切，和温暖。

Falling Slowly

爱尔兰影片《Once》主题曲

I don’t know you
But I want you
All the more for that
Words fall through me
And always fool me
And I can’t react
And games that never amount
To more than they’re meant
Will play themselves out

Take this sinking boat and point it home
We’ve still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you have a choice
You’ve made it now

Falling slowly, eyes that know me
And I can’t go back
Moods that take me and erase me
And I’m painted black
You have suffered enough
And warred with yourself
It’s time that you won

Take this sinking boat and point it home
We’ve still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you had a choice
You’ve made it now

Take this sinking boat and point it home
We’ve still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you had a choice
You’ve made it now
Falling slowly sing your melody
I’ll sing along
