爱情的象征
玫瑰是爱情的象征,歌词中经常出现。比如西班牙歌手Enrique Iglesias的歌曲《Hero》,其中就有这样的歌词:
Would you dance if I asked you to dance?
Would you run and never look back?
Would you cry if you saw me crying?
And would you save my soul tonight?
Would you tremble if I touched your lips?
Would you laugh? Oh, please tell me this.
Now would you die for the one you love?
Hold me in your arms tonight.
其中"Would you dance if I asked you to dance?"就用了玫瑰来比喻爱情,暗示了爱情是需要勇气和冒险的。
不同的涵义
玫瑰有不同的颜色和数量都有不同的意义,歌词中也有相应的体现。像Taylor Swift的歌曲《Red》,歌词中就多次提到了玫瑰的颜色:
Losing him was blue like I've never known
Missing him was dark grey all alone
But loving him was red
Loving him was red
Touching him was like realizing all you ever wanted was right there in front of you
Fighting with him was like trying to solve a crossword and realizing there's no right answer
Regretting him was like wishing you never found out love could be that strong
其中"red"被用来形容强烈的感情,同时也表达了失去或者分离带来的悲伤。
难以抵挡的美丽
玫瑰的美丽是无法抗拒的,歌词中常用来形容某个人或物的美丽无法抗拒。比如U2的《With or Without You》,歌词中有这样的描述:
See the thorn twist in your side
And I'll wait for you
Sleight of hand and twist of fate
On a bed of nails she makes me wait
And I wait without you
With or without you
With or without you
其中“On a bed of nails she makes me wait”就用了玫瑰和荆棘来形容被爱情所困,表达了难以抗拒爱情的力量。
结语
玫瑰在歌词中虽然被多次提及,但每一首歌都有不同的涵义和表达方式。玫瑰象征着爱情,色彩数量也有不同的意义,其美丽也难以挡。总的来说,歌词中的玫瑰更多的是代表着人们内心难以表达的情感和感受。
