撒野之地: Cat Stevens - Father & Son (3:53)

1947年，原名Steven Georgiou的Cat Stevens生于英国伦敦。他以“Cat Stevens”作为艺名开始了自己的歌手生涯，代表作包括《Morning Has Broken》，《Lady D'Arbanville》，《Wild World》(美国著名乐队MR.Big曾翻唱)，《The First Cut is the Deepest》(Rod Stewart曾翻唱)和《Moon Shadow》等。1977年，Cat Stevens改信了伊斯兰教并将名字改成了Yusuf Islam。两年后，他逐渐从流行音乐界淡出。1981年，Yusuf Islam开始创作一些宗教题材的歌曲。

我今天才听到这首经典，然后了解到这位长相从耶稣变化到穆斯林的传奇歌者。《父与子》，在已经做了20多年儿子的我，和在几年后将成为父亲的我。

Father
Its not time to make a change,
Just relax, take it easy.
Youre still young, thats your fault,
Theres so much you have to know.
Find a girl, settle down,
If you want you can marry.
Look at me, I am old, but Im happy.

I was once like you are now, and I know that its not easy,
To be calm when youve found something going on.
But take your time, think a lot,
Why, think of everything youve got.
For you will still be here tomorrow, but your dreams may not.

Son
How can I try to explain, when I do the turns away again.
Its always been the same, same old story.
From the moment I could talk I was ordered to listen.
Now theres a way and I know that I have to go away.
I know I have to go.

Father
Its not time to make a change,
Just sit down, take it slowly.
Youre still young, thats your fault,
Theres so much you have to go through.
Find a girl, settle down,
If you want you can marry.
Look at me, I am old, but Im happy.
(son-- away away away, I know I have to
Make this decision alone - no)
Son
All the times that I cried, keeping all the things I knew inside,
Its hard, but its harder to ignore it.
If they were right, Id agree, but its them you know not me.
Now theres a way and I know that I have to go away.
I know I have to go.
(father-- stay stay stay, why must you go and
Make this decision alone? )
