听英文歌曲解析歌词:Seven Lonely Days

（单词翻译）

Seven Lonely Days

Seven lonely days make one lonely week.
Seven lonely nights make one lonely me.
Ever since the time you told me
We were through, seven lonely days,
I cried and cried for you.

Oh, my darling,
You're crying-boo-hoo-hoo-hoo.
There's no use in denying¹ I cried for you.
It was your favorite pastime² making me blue.
Last week was the last time I cried for you.

Seven hankies blue are filled with my tears,
Seven letters, too, are filled with my fears.
Guess it never pays to make your lover³ blue.
Seven lonely days I cried and cried for you.

Oh, my darling, I cried and cried for you.

歌词大意：

七个寂寞的日子 一周的寂寞
七个寂寞的夜 寂寞的我
自从你说我们已結束
七个寂寞的日子
我一直一直为你而哭泣

噢！亲爱的
你哭泣着
无须否认我为你而哭
你过去总是让我忧伤
上周是我最后一次为你而心伤

七条蓝色的手帕盈滿我的泪水
七封信也盈滿我的心情
不费心思的让所爱的人忧伤
七个寂寞的日子 我一直一直为 你而哭泣
噢！亲爱的，我一直一直为你而哭泣

七个寂寞的日子 一周的寂寞
七个寂寞的夜 寂寞的我
自从你说我们已結束
七个寂寞的日子
我一直一直 为你而哭泣

歌词、句型分析


1．Seven lonely days make one lonely week．
make:构成；成为
例如：12 months make one year. 12个月为一年。

2．Seven lonely nights make one lonely me．
这种相同的结构在本句中产生了很好的表达，即
lonely me. Seven对one,lonely对lonely, nights对me, 中间有动词make。假如我们把句子换成Seven lonely
nights make me lonely,意思无大变动，但那种lonely 效果不如lonely me所表达的涵义。
例如：Sunshine always makes a happy me.阳光总是造就幸福的我。

3．Ever since the time you told me we were through
=Since the time when you told me our love came to an end,…
be through(with):与……断绝关系；结束与……的关系，结束
例如：When were you through? 你们之间的关系是什么时候断绝的?

4．It was your favorite pastime making me blue
pastime:消遣；娱乐
favorite: best liked最喜欢的；特别受喜爱的人物

例如：Playing at chess is my favorite pastime.下象棋是我最喜爱的消遣。
Mark Twain is my favorite writer.马克·吐温是我最喜欢的作家。

5．Seven hankies blue are filled with my tears
=Seven blue handkerchieves are wet with my tears.
blue可作双关语，一是蓝颜色，一是伤心。blue表伤心时是一种移情用法，给handkerchieves也注入了感情。

6．Guess it never pays to make your love blue.
=I think I cannot gain anything even if I make your love sad.
guess:猜想；估计；臆测；推测；猜出；猜着；猜中
at a guess:依猜测
pay在此处为“有利或有好处”。
to make your love blue= to make your love sad.
blue:（口语）sad; depressed忧伤；沮丧
