應該說，現(xiàn)在讀詩歌的人越來越少了吧敢课，連我自己也很少讀了阶祭，好多詩還是因為被譜成歌曲傳唱了，才被人知道直秆，《Down by the Salley Gardens》就是其中一首吧濒募，至少我是這樣的。這是當初因為想學唱一首英文歌圾结，V推薦給我的萨咳，愛爾蘭民謠本就招人喜歡，再加上藤田惠美的聲音疫稿，這首歌一下子就吸引了我培他。
后來才知道，這竟也是葉芝的詩遗座！
雖然2016年9月8日已經(jīng)介紹過一首由葉芝的詩改為的歌《當你老了》舀凛，但是今天還是要再介紹這一首《Down by the Salley Gardens》（柳園里），此詩的女主角與《When you are old》的女主角是同一個人途蒋，你相信嗎猛遍？
１、歌詞
Down by thesalley gardens
My love and Idid meet
She passedthe salley gardens
With littlesnow-white feet
She bid metake love easy
As the leavesgrow on the tree
But I beingyoung and foolish
With herwould not agree
In a field bythe river
My love and Idid stand
And on myleaning shoulder
She laid hersnow-white hand
She bid metake life easy
As the grassgrows on the weirs
But I wasyoung and foolish
And now I'mfull of tears
Down by thesalley gardens
My love and Idid meet
She passedthe salley gardens
With littlesnow-white feet
She bid metake love easy
As the leavesgrow on the tree
But I beingyoung and foolish
With herwould not agree
２号坡、創(chuàng)作背景
葉芝的手稿中記錄了這首歌的創(chuàng)作背景懊烤。葉芝在愛爾蘭西部的斯萊戈郊外的村莊里，聽見了一位年邁的農(nóng)民在哼唱一首民謠宽堆，名叫TheRambling Boys of Pleasure腌紧，歌詞里就提到了Sally Gardens ("It was down by Sally's Garden one evening late I took my way")。葉芝覺得很好聽畜隶，就過去想聽完整版壁肋。然而這位年邁的農(nóng)民已經(jīng)不記得完整的歌詞了号胚。于是，葉芝就自己為這首民謠填上了詞浸遗，并命名為An Old Song Re-Sung（舊歌新唱）猫胁。這首歌傳唱開后，名稱就被定為歌詞的第一句--Down by the Sally Gardens跛锌。 1909年弃秆，愛爾蘭音樂家Herbert Hughes將曲調(diào)重新改編。
３髓帽、語言驾茴、意境
這首詩貌似簡單、語言質(zhì)樸氢卡，但卻向人們揭示了生活的哲理：對待愛情和生活，人們應當順其自然晨缴，就像“綠葉長在樹枝上”译秦，“青草長在河堰上”。不然击碗，會因為一時的“愚蠢”而遺恨終生筑悴。
詩人使用的都是常用詞，只有“salley”也許不那么常見稍途，在風雨中纖細的柳枝搖擺不定阁吝，這恰恰與人們在悲傷的風雨中無助的境況相似。另外械拍。詩中使用重復的手法來烘托詩的主題：失落的愛突勇。這種重復不僅是詞語的重復（如 young and foolish），而且是句式的重復坷虑，第二節(jié)與第一節(jié)的句法大致相同甲馋。這首詩在時態(tài)的運用上也有獨特之處。全詩除了最后半行用現(xiàn)在時以外都是用過去時態(tài)迄损。這說明過去對人們的現(xiàn)在具有十分重要的意義定躏。在詩每節(jié)的結(jié)尾，人用一般現(xiàn)在時芹敌，以次來表現(xiàn)自己未能接受情人的勸告而悔恨萬分痊远。
４、Sally Gardens
詩中的這個SallyGardens是位于斯萊戈的一條小河岸邊氏捞。河岸邊的居民砍下柳樹枝來建造屋頂碧聪，而這些柳樹在當?shù)乇环Q為Sallow(同英文中的Willow)。因此液茎，這個地方就被人稱作Sally Gardens矾削，意思是柳樹園壤玫。（是不是以后旅行又有了新的目標地？：呖）
