鹅妈妈童谣集 中英对照

鹅妈妈童谣集 中英对照 一、什么是鹅妈妈童谣 (Mother Goose) 　　鹅妈妈童谣(Mother Goose)是英国民间童谣集，中文译为鹅妈妈童谣集。这些民间童谣在英国流传时间相当久，有的长达数百年，总数约有八百多首，内容典雅，有幽默故事、游戏歌曲、儿歌、谜语、催眠曲、字母歌、数数歌、绕口令、动物歌等，英国人称其为 Nursery Rhymes(儿歌)，美国人称其为 Mother Goose(鹅妈妈童谣)，是英、美人士从孩童时代就耳熟能详的儿歌。 　　二、起源 　　0.1 鹅妈妈童谣的起源 　　对于鹅妈妈童谣流传的时间众说纷纭，至今无法确切定论。一般有两种说法，第一是源自法国作家 Charles Perrault 在 1697 年写的故事集 Contes de ma mère l'Oye(Tales of My Mother Goose)，之后由英国人收集编辑而成。不过也有十四世纪就出现的说法。因为大部份的歌词为了顺口的缘故，句末都会押韵，而有些字随着时代不同会有不同发音。所以有人发现，某某歌的歌词如果要押韵的话，应该用十四世纪的发音才对，因此就有从十四世纪开始流传的说法。 　　0.2 鹅妈妈童谣中残酷句子的起源 　　著名的「伦敦铁桥倒下来」、「玛丽有只小绵羊」等童谣，都是所谓的鹅妈妈童谣。 　　随着时间的流逝，鹅妈妈童谣的内容不断扩大，至今包涵数百首童谣，不过有少数歌词内容相当的血腥，其最大的原因，即是由于东、西方对死亡的态度不同，东方人非常避讳谈到「死」这个字眼或相关话题；西方人则相反，他们不畏惧谈到关于死亡，甚至对于生死有关的教育皆是从小教起。不过鹅妈妈童谣中的歌词，也可以从它的时代背景来看。 　　18 世纪的英国，发生了工业革命，促使资本主义产生，也造成严重的贫富不均与阶级对立。使得大多数的人民成了资本主义的工具和牺牲品，他们大多生活困苦艰难，在这种人心动乱、生活环境差的年代，会出现鹅妈妈童谣里的这类歌词也不会是稀奇的事。有些歌词是反应时代背景，有些歌词则是反映了一部份的现实，发疯的人、杀人犯、杀了父母的小孩、卖掉小孩的父母…等等，在穷困的时代皆是常见的角色，把他们的故事写进童谣中，或许现在的人们看了会无法接受，但那却是一个历史的悲哀。 ==========+===================+===================+============= 1.My mother has killed me My mother has killed me My father is eating me, My brothers and sisters sit under the table, Picking up my bones, And they bury them under the cold marble stones. 我的母亲杀了我, 我的父亲在吃我， 我的兄弟姐妹坐在桌旁, 收拾着我的残骸, 然后将他们埋葬在冰冷的大理石下。 ========+================+==================+==============+==== 2.

Sing a song of sixpence!在这首童谣中，皇帝指的是英国都铎王朝的第二代国王亨利八世（HenryⅧ,1509-1547），他的残暴乖戾在历代君主中是很突出的，拥有6位妻子并处决了2位而闻名。童谣中的女王指的是凯瑟琳（Catherine of Aragon），她是西班牙阿拉贡国王斐迪南二世的女儿，曾经是亨利七世的妻子，亨利八世的第一任妻子，但是由于她没有为亨利生下皇子，渐渐导致亨利对她的冷淡，但又由于教会的原因使之迟迟不能废后。“皇后在大厅里吃着面包和蜂蜜”这句算是影射了当时凯瑟琳被冷落的情形吧。在那时亨利看中了安妮·博林（Anne Boleyn, 1507?--1516），她是托马斯·博林爵士和伊丽莎白·霍华德郡主的小女儿，也就是他的第2任妻子--童谣中的那个侍女。然而她也没有为亨利生下儿子，又由于她天生的生理缺陷和一些政治因素，安妮被控告与5个男人通奸，其中包括与她的亲兄弟乔治?伯林通奸——乱伦的罪行被关进伦敦塔，随后于1536年5月19日被处决，成为第一个被处决的王后。这也就是“来了只小黑鸫，突然啄下她的鼻子”的来历吧。童谣中的“派”和“24只黑鸫”分别是指格拉斯顿堡的管理人，和他所赠送给亨利八世的圣诞礼物。 －－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－ 12.There was an old man There was an old man And he had a calf And that's half 从前有个老人 他养了一头小牛 现在说到一半 He took him out of the stall And put his on the wall And that's all 老人把小牛带出牛舍 再把它系在墙上 这就是全部 备注：出自《Mad tea party》《Scold's Bridle》《Zigeunerweisen》《Mortician's daughter》《Little Miss Muffet》《Bloody Maria》《Castrato》《ユダの接吻》《エディプスの刃》《Misericorde》每一章的最后一句"And that's all"出自于此。 －－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－ 13.Little Miss Muffet Little Miss Muffet Sat on a tuffet, Eating her curds and whey; There came a big spider, Who sat down beside her And frightened Miss Muffet away 小玛菲特小姐 坐在土堆上 吃着乳凝和乳清 来了一只大蜘蛛 坐在她旁边 吓跑了玛菲特小姐 备注： 出自《God Child vol.3》-《Little Miss Muffet》 ==========+===================+===================+============= 14.What are little boys made of ?

And now poor Simple Simon Bids you all adieu. 他用筛网取水， 但是水很快就漏光了。 可怜而又无知的西蒙啊 永远地再见了 备注： 出自《God Child vol.8》-《Godless》 最后一章的最后一句"Bids you all adieu"因该就是出自这首童谣吧。"Bids you all adieu"可以理解为“永别”的意思。“bid"是在这里是“吩咐，告诉”的意思。"adieu"是从法语衍生而来的。"adieu"是“再见，辞别”的意思。从中古英语"adew"变化而来，这个词又是从古代法语"adieu"(à + dieu)来的，意义为“献身于神”，"dieu"是“神”的意思。综合起来看，就可以理解为“永别”的意思了。哎……也就是说该隐的故事再也不会有了，那是最终的了。他带着优雅的微笑，Bids you all adieu. －－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－ 17.Three Blind Mice Three blind mice!
