《cat》,改编自t.s—艾略特的十四行儿童诗歌,改编者韦伯的父亲是伦敦音乐学院的校长,使韦伯能从小得到最好的音乐教育,其鼎盛时期是前无古人的同时有三部音乐剧在百老汇上演,三部在伦敦上演,而《猫》剧经过23年在全球250个城市的演出,现已是世界四大音乐剧之一,其中三十八只猫各有其生命的精彩之处,而每年一度的jellicle聚会,会从中挑选出一只获得重生的机会,其实,作者想表达的重生并非将生命结束之后再来一次,这一点在魅力猫最后一幕的精彩唱段中得以表现,我就不在此赘述,而魅力猫的唱段,则是著名的《memory》(记忆),这首歌,一定能杀死或拯救楼下许多犹豫小猫……以下内容为《猫》剧两个著名的唱段,分别刻画了魅力猫、剧院猫回忆往日风采、感怀今日境遇的复杂情绪,而最后一段,则是魅力猫从一个为猫群所遗弃、失却昔日光芒的落魄老猫一跃而成为jellicle聚会的宠儿获得重生机会……
中文翻译版本我在一楼放出,同时放出《memory》的下载链接,遗憾的是虽然这首著名的歌曲曾被世界上170位著名歌手演绎过,但在网络上流传的,却没有音乐剧的版本,只能放出一个单曲版让大家略洗耳朵了,最近北京在上演《cat》剧,北京猫有福……
(洁——洁莉洛兰、清——清纯猫洁蜜玛、魅——魅力猫葛莉兹贝拉、剧——剧院猫格斯)
猫儿们争先恐后的表现着自己精彩的生活,突然,脚步蹒跚衣衫褴偻的魅力猫出现,风韵尤存的身段与面容暗示着她昔日的风姿,而右眼下两点黑色的泪滴则向我们展示着她心灵深处的创伤,猫群们四散开来不愿与之接触,偶有一两只和善的小猫也被他人粗鲁的拉开,魅力猫颤抖着嗓音,唱出下面两句:
(魅):you see the corner of her coat is torn and stained with sand
and you see the corner of her eye . twist like acrocked pin
………………………………
猫群欢快的开着晚会,魅力猫站在远处,眼里饱含着泪水与渴望,当猫儿们稍微歇息下来时,葛莉兹贝拉再也忍受不住离群的寂寞,来到场中央,无奈的是,不受欢迎的气氛仍然弥漫在她的身边,甚至洁莉洛兰和洁蜜玛还用她对自己的描述来表示对她的厌恶:
(洁):you see the corner of her coat is torn and stained with sand .
(清):and you see the corner of her eye . twist like acrocked pin .
猫儿们四散而坐、窃窃私语,葛莉兹贝拉希望展示一下自己的风采来重归猫群的怀抱,但是,年老色衰已经成为事实,猫群的不理解也很难转变。她再也展现不出当年轻盈的舞步和阿娜的身姿,甚至走几个猫步都会令自己索然无味,于是,“那时我也美丽……,就让回忆再活一次吧”的《memory》让她伤感满怀:
(魅):midnight
not a sound from the pavement
has the moon lost her memory
she is smiling alone
in the lamplight
the withered leaves collect at my feet
and the wind……begins to moan
every street lamp seems to beat
a fatalistic warning
someone mutters and a street lamp gutters
and soon it will be morning
memory
all alone in the moonlight
i can smile at the old days
i was beautiful then
i remember the time i knew what happiness was
let the memory live again
葛莉兹贝拉黯然离开,猫群又恢复了和善亲切的气氛,清纯猫洁蜜玛用欢快的《memory》曲调引出猫群里另一位昔日明星的故事,而众猫的同和,表现出猫群对老猫的尊敬,也暗示着对魅力猫葛莉兹贝拉的不接受其实源自对她的不理解:
(清):moonlight !
turn you face to the moonlight
let your memory lead you
open up enter in
if you find there the meaning of what happiness is
then a new life will begin
(合):moonlight !
turn you face to the moonlight
let your memory lead you
open up enter in
if you find there the meaning of what happiness is
then a new life will begin
洁莉洛兰搀扶着瘫痪的(应为中风)剧院猫格斯,向大家讲述着这颗 old star 的故事,唱段诙谐中隐含因回忆而带来的伤感,而老格斯也用苍老的嗓音做着美好的回忆并对小猫们显示自己虽老而残但仍是一个他们无法企及的高度,近似念白的歌声中偶露出一两句极具魅力的唱段,展现着剧院猫的旧时辉煌:
(洁):gus is the cat at the theatre door
his name is i ought to have told you before
is really asparagus ,but that’s such a fuss to pronounce
that we usually call him just gus
his coat’s very shabby
he’s thin as a rake
and he suffers from palsy that makes him paw a shake
yet he was he in his youth quite the smartest of cat
but no longer a terror to mice or to rats
for he isn’t the cat that he was in his prime
though his name was quite famous , he says in his time
and when ever he joins his friends at their club
which takes place at the backof the neighboring pub
he loves to regale them if someone else pays
with anecdotes drawn from his palmist days
for he once was a star of the highest degree
he has acted with lrving , he has acted with tree
and he likes to relate his success on the halls
where the gallery once gave him seven cat calls
but he grandest creation as he loves to tell was firefrofiddle , the fiend of the fell
(剧):i have played in my time every possible part
and i used to know seventy speeches by heart
i’d extemporise back chat i knew how to gag
and i knew how to let the cat out of the bag
i knew how to act with my back and my tail
with an hour of rehearsal i never could fail
i’d voice that would soften the hardest of hearts
whether i took the lead , or in character parts ?
i have sat by the bedside of poor little nell
when the curfew was rung , then i swung on the bell
in the pantomime season i never fell flat
and i once under-studied dick whittington’s cat
but the grandest creation as history will tell was firefrofiddle , the fiend of the fell
(洁):then if someone will give him a toothful of gin , he will tell how he once played a part in eaet lynn
at a shakespeare performance he once walked on pat
when some actor suggested the need for a cat ,
(剧)and i say that these kittens
they do not get trained as we did in the days when victoria reigned
they never get drilled in a regular troupe
and they think they are smart just to jump trough a hoop
(洁):and he says as he scratches himself with his claws
(剧):well , the theatre is certainly not what it was
these modern productions are all very well
but there’s nothing to equal from what i hear tell
that moment of mystery
when i made history as firefrofiddle , the fiend of the fell
………………………………
天要亮了,猫群中就要选出一个幸运儿得以上天堂并获得重生,洁蜜玛再次用轻快版的《memory》来引发魅力猫的出场:
(清):daylight
see the dew on a sunflower
and a rose that is fading
roses wither away
like the sunflower i yearn to turn my face to the dawn
i’m waiting……for the day
葛莉兹贝拉近乎绝望的回想着这一生,迷人却又短暂的往日已经不堪回首,魅力猫用绝望来表达自己对美好明天的期盼,渴望着告别昨天,迎接一轮新日的到来,一句“touch me”(直译为接触我吧,台湾版为摘掉我吧,而本意应该是表达出绝望与期盼的混合体,“带走我、把我的生命拿去吧”)令全剧达到了最高潮,然后,葛莉兹贝拉无助的倒了下来:
(魅):memory
turn you face to the moonlight
let your memory lead you
open up enter in
if you find there the meaning of what happiness is
then a new life will begin
memory
all alone in the moonlight
i can smile at the old days
i was beautiful then
i remember the time i knew what happiness was
let the memory live again
burnt out ends of smokey days
the stale cold smell of morning
the street lamp diesan
another night is over
another day is dawning
daylight
i must wait for the sunrise
i must think of a new life
and i mustn’t give in
when the dawn comes tonight will be a memory too
and a new day will begin
(清):sunlight through the trees in summer
endless masquerrading
(清、魅):like a flower as the dawn is braking
the memory is fading
(魅):touch me
it’s so easy to leave me all alone with the memory
of my days in the sun
if you touch me
you’ll understand what happiness is
look ! a new day has begun
猫群终于理解了葛莉兹贝拉的内心之痛,用最大的善意和最多的温暖接受了魅力猫,不言之中,老猫戒律伯牵着葛莉兹贝拉的手,踏着祥云升上天空,一座五彩的云桥慢慢降下,魅力猫乘云而去。全剧清纯猫洁蜜玛的每次出现都在葛莉兹贝拉的前后,二猫都唱着著名的《memory》,而两猫的身份又极为相近,一个清纯一个魅力,都是猫中翘楚,猫剧没有描绘重生后的场景,而原诗歌作者也因为魅力猫这一段太过伤感而一直未发表,直到死后才由其妻子拿出手稿交给韦伯改编,韦伯则用洁蜜玛的形象向我们暗示着一个重生后的葛莉兹贝拉:
(合):up , up , up , past the russell hotel
up , up , up , up to the heaviside layer
up , up , up , past the russell hotel
up , up , up , up to the heaviside layer
up , up , up , past the russell hotel
up , up , up , up to the heaviside layer
up , up , up , past the russell hotel
up , up , up , up to the heaviside layer
up , up , up , past the jellicle moon
up , up , up , up to the heaviside layer
up , up , up , past the jellicle moon
up , up , up , up to the heaviside layer
the mystical divinity of unashamed felinity
round the cathedeal rang vivat
life to the everlasting cat

(魅):午夜
人行道上一片寂静
月亮失去记忆了吗?
她独自微笑
灯光下,我脚下积满了枯叶
而风……开始哽咽
每一盏街灯似乎在发出宿命的警告
有人喃喃低语,路等成排延伸
清晨就快来临
记忆
月光下形单只影
我可以对往昔微笑
那时的我很美
我仍记得那过去的幸福时光
让记忆再次苏醒吧
葛莉兹贝拉黯然离开,猫群又恢复了和善亲切的气氛,清纯猫洁蜜玛用欢快的《memory》曲调引出猫群里另一位昔日明星的故事,而众猫的同和,表现出猫群对老猫的尊敬,也暗示着对魅力猫葛莉兹贝拉的不接受其实源自对她的不理解:
(清):月光!
把脸转向月光吧
让记忆引领着你
打开并进入回忆
如果你在那里找到幸福的真义
那么一个新生活即将开始
(合):月光!
把脸转向月光吧
让记忆引领着你
打开并进入回忆
如果你在那里找到幸福的真义
那么一个新生活即将开始
洁莉洛兰搀扶着瘫痪的(应为中风)剧院猫格斯,向大家讲述着这颗 old star 的故事,唱段诙谐中隐含因回忆而带来的伤感,而老格斯也用苍老的嗓音做着美好的回忆并对小猫们显示自己虽老而残但仍是一个他们无法企及的高度,近似念白的歌声中偶露出一两句极具魅力的唱段,展现着剧院猫的旧时辉煌:
(洁):格斯是只剧院门口的猫
他的名字以前应该告诉过你的
他的真名叫阿斯帕格斯
但发音太麻烦了
所以我们通常只叫他格斯
他衣衫褴偻,他骨瘦如柴
他受瘫痪之苦,手足抖动
然而年轻时,他是猫中翘楚
而今他对鼠辈已不再有威胁
因为他不若往日意气风发
虽说他那时声名显赫
与朋友的俱乐部约会
在附近酒吧的后面举行
当有人付帐时,他乐意引人发笑
说着命相岁月的奇闻轶事
他一度是最闪亮的明星
他曾和欧文演戏
也曾与崔伊搭档
他喜欢把自己的成就和戏院拉上关系
艺廊也曾授予他“七声猫叫”
但他最为得意的杰出创作
是砍树恶魔——费尔佛费多
(剧):当时我扮演过各类角色
我还曾熟记七十篇演讲辞
我会即席反驳插科打诨
我也知道如何让一只猫说出他的秘密
我懂得如何用背部和尾巴演出
长达一个小时的彩排也绝不出错
我拥有软化硬汉的嗓音
不论是主角
还是性格角色
我曾坐在可怜的小尼尔床边
当宵禁开始,我拉响铃铛
哑戏季节我从未失声
我还曾在惠汀顿的猫剧里临时演出
但历史传述的最佳作品
是砍树恶魔——费尔佛费多
(洁):若有人给他一口琴酒
他会讲述在《东琳》一剧的演出
并在莎翁名剧里做行云流水的表演
当演员提出需要猫的时候
(剧)我说你们这些小辈
不曾受过维多莉亚在位时的训练
也没受过巡回演出的磨练
只是跳个铁圈就自以为了不起
还自以为是的用爪子搔着痒
戏院当然不同于往日了
这些现代作品都很好
但没有可与我所说的相提并论
当我以砍树恶魔写下历史的那神秘一刻
………………………………
天要亮了,猫群中就要选出一个幸运儿得以上天堂并获得重生,洁蜜玛再次用轻快版的《memory》来引发魅力猫的出场:
(清):破晓
瞧那向日葵上的露珠
和逐渐枯萎的玫瑰
玫瑰凋谢了
和那向日葵一样
我渴望把脸转向黎明
我在等待
白天的来临
葛莉兹贝拉近乎绝望的回想着这一生,迷人却又短暂的往日已经不堪回首,魅力猫用绝望来表达自己对美好明天的期盼,渴望着告别昨天,迎接一轮新日的到来,一句“touch me”(直译为接触我吧,台湾版为摘掉我吧,而本意应该是表达出绝望与期盼的混合体,“带走我、把我的生命拿去吧”)令全剧达到了最高潮,然后,葛莉兹贝拉无助的倒了下来:
(魅):记忆
把你的脸转向月光
让记忆引领你
打开并进入回忆
如果你在那里找到幸福的真义
那么一个新生活
即将开始
记忆
月亮下形只影单
我可对往日微笑
那时的我很美
我还记得
过去的幸福时光
让记忆再次苏醒吧
耗尽灰暗的日子里
清晨散发着寒冷的霉味
街灯死去(熄灭符合逻辑,但死去更显忧伤)
又一个夜晚结束
新的一天就要来临
破晓
我必须等待日出
我必须思索新生活
我不能再退缩
当黎明到来时
今晚也将成为回忆
而新的一天就将来临
(清):夏季日光穿透树林
照着永无休止的化妆舞会
(清、魅):象花儿在黎明破晓时的凋谢那样
记忆正在消退
(魅):带走我吧
留我一个独自面对回忆
面对那段阳光下的日子
如果你带走我
你会明白幸福的意义——
瞧!
新的一天已经开始……
