[00:00:12] 垦荒的歌曲。

[00:00:18] 《I am Going to the West》

[00:00:21] In this fair land' I'll stay no more

[00:00:26] Here labor is in vain

[00:00:31] I'll seek the mountains far away

[00:00:35] And leave the fertile plain

[00:00:43] Where waves of grass in oceans roll

[00:00:48] Into infinity

[00:00:53] I stand ready on the shore

[00:00:58] To cross the inland sea

[00:01:05] I am going to the West

[00:01:10] Chorus

[00:01:12] You say you will not go with me

[00:01:17] You turn your eyes away

[00:01:22] You say you will not follow me

[00:01:26] No matter what I say

[00:01:34] I am going to the West

[00:01:38] I am going to the West

[00:01:44] Chorus

[00:01:56] I will journey to the place

[00:02:01] That was shaped by heaven hand

[00:02:05] And I will build for me a bower

[00:02:10] Where angels?footprints mark the land

[00:02:18] Where castle rocks in towers high

[00:02:22] Kneel to valleys wild and green

[00:02:27] All my thoughts are turned to you

[00:02:32] My waking hope' my sleeping dream

[00:02:39] I am going to the West

[00:02:47] You say you will not go with me

[00:02:52] You turn your eyes away

[00:02:56] You say you will not follow me

[00:03:01] No matter what I say

[00:03:09] I am going to the West

[00:03:14] I am going to the West

[00:03:21] And when sun gives way to moon

[00:03:26] And silver starlight fills the sky

[00:03:31] In the arms of these last hills

[00:03:35] Is where I bound to lie

[00:03:43] Wind' my blanket' earth' my bed

[00:03:48] My canopy' a tree

[00:03:52] Willows by the river edge

[00:03:57] Will whisper me to sleep

[00:04:05] I am going to the West

[00:04:12] You say you will not go with me

[00:04:17] You turn your eyes away

[00:04:21] You say you will not follow me

[00:04:26] No matter what I say

[00:04:34] I am going to the West

[00:04:44] I am going to the West

[00:04:52] Connie Dover是美国本土密苏里州人，在美

[00:04:54] 国本土的一个爱尔兰乐队scartaglen中出名，

[00:04:56] 以往我们接触的celtic美声大多都是来自欧

[00:04:58] 洲大陆，这个美国漂亮歌手饱含celtic风的

[00:05:00] 歌声却使我不得不赞叹celtic音乐的魅力和

[00:05:02] 影响是多么的巨大。仔细听她的音乐中，民

[00:05:04] 谣和美声的成分居多。用了大量celtic特有

[00:05:06] 的乐器，却也不忘加上点标志美国民谣的吉

[00:05:09] 他声。还有一点值得一提，这个金发美女不

[00:05:11] 仅人美歌靓，自己也是个键盘手和作曲家。

[00:05:13] Connie Dover 的声音很平稳，就像砂漏里的

[00:05:15] 砂往下流过一样，淡淡的，看不出什么滋味，

[00:05:17] 口感却又很深远，不过，就像 CD 听完可以

[00:05:19] 重来，沙漏滴完可以再翻转过来，时间却还

[00:05:21] 是一样离开，淡滋味中，有一种无力挽回的

[00:05:23] 哀伤。
