其實 Donne 喺 文學 世界 真 係 影響 好大
actually|Donne|in|literature|world|really|is|influence|very large

英國 文學家 John Dryden 曾經 講過

以致 後 嚟 喺 英國 文學史 上 影響力 深遠 嘅 另 一位 偉大 文學家 Samuel Johnson

無錯 呢 個 WTF am I Reading Memes 嘅 人 就 係 Samuel Johnson
that's right|this|measure word|WTF|am|I|reading|memes|possessive particle|person|just|is||
That's right, the person behind the WTF am I Reading Memes is Samuel Johnson.
而 我 本人 極度 懷疑 佢 呢 個 樣 就 係 睇完 啲 Metaphysical poets 寫 嘅 嘢 之後 極度 懷疑 人生 嘅 樣 嚟 (講笑 )
and|I|myself|extremely|doubt|he|this|measure word|appearance|just|is|after reading|plural marker|Metaphysical|poets|wrote|possessive particle|things|after|extremely|doubt|life|possessive particle|appearance|coming|joking
And I personally highly doubt that this is the way he looks after reading the works of the Metaphysical poets, questioning the nature of life (just joking).
而 講到 靈與性 上面 嘅 追求
and|talking about|spirit and sexuality|above|possessive particle|pursuit
And speaking of the pursuit of spirituality.
今次 我 哋 講 嘅 呢 一首 詩 正正 就 係 佢 嘅 代表作
this time|I|we|talk|possessive particle|this|a|poem|exactly|just|is|he|possessive particle|representative work
The poem we are discussing this time is precisely his representative work.
我 哋 今 次 就 請 嚟 曾經 係 荷里活 身價 最高 嘅 演員
This time we have invited an actor who was once the highest-paid in Hollywood.
亦 都 曾經 做過 擁有 傾國傾城 之 貌 嘅 玉 婆 Elizabeth Taylor 老公 嘅 呢 一位 英國 已故 著名 演員 Richard Burton
also|all|once|did|had|stunningly beautiful|possessive particle|appearance|possessive particle|jade|old woman|||husband|possessive particle|this|a|British|deceased|famous|actor||
Also once had the beauty of a stunning woman, the late British actor Richard Burton, who was the husband of Elizabeth Taylor.
嚟 為 我 哋 讀出 John Donne 嘅 呢 一首 The Good Morrow
come|for|I|we|read out|||possessive particle|this|one poem|||
Now, let us read this poem 'The Good Morrow' by John Donne.
'By my troth' 即 係 解 'by my truth'
'By my troth' means 'by my truth'.
'Thou and I' 即 係 'you and I'
'Thou and I' means 'you and I'.
咁 其實 佢 嘅 意思 即係 :
so|actually|he|possessive particle|meaning|that is
So, actually, what it means is:
我 同 你 未 相愛 之前 究竟 做過 啲 乜 做 緊 啲 乜 ?
I|with|you|not yet|fell in love|before|exactly|did|some|what|doing|currently|some|what
What did we do and what are we doing before we fell in love?
而 'Bymytroth'其實 就 係 解 「從 心底裡 」嘅 誠實 一樣
and||just|is|explanation|from|deep down|possessive particle|honesty|the same
And 'By my troth' actually means 'from the bottom of my heart' in terms of honesty.
基本上 西人 文化 入面 人生 對 伴侣 最 誠實 一刻 就 係 結婚
basically|Westerners|culture|within|life|towards|partner|most|honest|moment|just|is|marriage
Basically, in Western culture, the most honest moment in life towards a partner is marriage.
所以 'By my troth' 呢 樣 嘢 就 好似 表達 緊 佢 有 一個 猶如 結婚 嗰陣 咁 誠實 嘅 態度
so||||this|thing|thing|just|seems|expressing|currently|he|has|a|like|marriage|at that time|so|honest|possessive particle|attitude
So 'By my troth' is like expressing that he has an attitude as sincere as that of a marriage.
而 佢 想 知 嘅 就 係 「我 同 你 未 相愛 之前 究竟 做過 啲 乜 做 緊 啲 乜 ?
and|he|wants|to know|question particle|just|is|I|with|you|not yet|in love|before|exactly|did|some|what|doing|currently|some|what
What he wants to know is, 'What have I done and what am I doing before we fell in love?'
」換句 說話 講 即係 有 啲 嘢 發生 咗
rephrasing|speech|means|that is|there is|some|thing|happened|past tense marker
In other words, it means that something has happened.
而嗰樣 嘢 係 改變 咗 佢 哋 嘅 關係
and that thing|thing|is|changed|past tense marker|they|plural marker|possessive particle|relationship
And that thing has changed their relationship.
昇華 咗 佢 哋 之間 嘅 愛意
sublimated|past tense marker|they|plural marker|between|possessive particle|love
Elevated the love between them.
咁 究竟 嗰樣 嘢 係 乜 呢 ?
then|exactly|that|thing|is|what|question particle
So what exactly is that thing?
就係 之後 嘅 嗰 句 :
just is|after|possessive particle|that|sentence
It's the following sentence:
Weaned 嘅 意思 係 解 斷奶
Weaned|possessive particle|meaning|is|to break|breastfeeding
The meaning of 'weaned' is to wean off.
即係 當 你 想要 個 BB 唔 好 再 食 人奶
that is|when|you|want|the|baby|not|well|again|eat|breast milk
That is, when you want the baby to stop drinking breast milk.
開始 食 其他 嘢 嗰陣
start|eat|other|food|at that time
When you start feeding them other things.
你 就要 喺 佢 媽媽 嘅 胸 Wean off 佢 斷 佢 奶
you|just have to|at|he|mother|possessive particle|breast|||he|stop|he|milk
You have to wean them off their mother's breast milk.
而 呢 句 詩 嘅 字面上 嘅 斷奶 其實 係 一個 比喻 嚟
and|this|sentence|poem|possessive particle|literally|possessive particle|weaning|actually|is|a|metaphor|coming from
And the literal meaning of weaning in this phrase is actually a metaphor.
係 用 嚟 形容 成長
is|used|to|describe|growth
It is used to describe growth.
當 你 從小 朋友 長大成人 咁 解
when|you|from childhood|friend|grow up|then|understand
When you grow up from a child to an adult.
當然 你 就 唔 會 一 斷奶 就 即刻 變 大個 啦
of course|you|then|not|will|one|weaned|then|immediately|become|grown up|particle
Of course, you won't just stop breastfeeding and immediately become an adult.
但 係 當 一個 BB 可以 斷奶 嘅陣
||when|a|baby|can|wean|time
But when a baby can stop breastfeeding.
佢 就 唔 再 係 一個 BB
He|just|not|again|is|a|baby
He is no longer a baby.
就 會 變成 一個 細路
then|will|become|a|child
He will become a child.
所以 我 哋 都 會 見到 「成長 」呢 個 概念 係 度
so|I|we|all|will|see|growth|this|measure word|concept|is|there
So we will see the concept of 'growth' here.
而 其實 Donne 哥 想 證明 嘅 係
||Donne|brother|wants|to prove|possessive particle|is
And actually, what Donne wants to prove is.
以往 未 相愛 之前 嘅 佢 哋 就 好似 細路 一樣 咁 單純 幼稚
in the past|not yet|fell in love|before|possessive particle|they|plural marker|then|seemed|children|the same|so|innocent|childish
In the past, before they fell in love, they were very innocent and childish like kids.
但 有 啲 嘢 發生 咗 令到 佢哋 長大 咗 …
but|there is|some|things|happened|past tense marker|caused|they|grow up|past tense marker
But something happened that made them grow up...
Hmm係咪 好耐 人尋味 呢
|a long time|thought-provoking|particle
Hmm, it is indeed very thought-provoking.
我 哋 睇 埋落去 就 知嫁 喇
I|we|look|down|then|know|particle indicating completed action
If we look deeper, we will understand.
之後嗰 句 :
the one after|sentence
The next sentence is:
首先 就 係 Sucked 係 解 啜 咁 解
first|then|is|Sucked|is|understand|sip|like this|understand
First of all, 'Sucked' means to suck.
而 呢 度 又 係 另 一個 地方 可以 聯想 到 佢 啜 緊 嘢 未 斷奶
and|this|place|again|is|another|one|place|can|associate|to|he|suck|ongoing|thing|not yet|weaned
And here is another place where you can associate it with something that is still suckling.
另外 大家 可能 會 好 奇怪 乜嘢 叫做 Country Pleasures
additionally|everyone|might|will|very|strange|what|is called||
Additionally, everyone might be curious about what is called 'Country Pleasures'.
其實 係 一個 Wordplay 嚟 嘅
actually|is|a|wordplay|coming|particle
Actually, it's a wordplay.
喺 英國 大 文豪 莎士比亞 嘅 Hamlet 哈姆雷特 嘅 Act 3 Scene 2 入面
in|England|great|literary master|Shakespeare|possessive particle|Hamlet|Hamlet|possessive particle|Act|Scene|inside
In Act 3 Scene 2 of the great British playwright Shakespeare's Hamlet.
Hamlet 想 瞓 喺 Ophelia 個 大 髀度
Hamlet|wants|sleep|in|Ophelia|possessive particle|big|thigh
Hamlet wants to lie on Ophelia's big thigh.
而 Ophelia 當時 就 有 啲 受寵若驚
and|Ophelia|at that time|then|had|a little|overwhelmed by favor
And at that time, Ophelia was a bit flustered.
不過 Hamlet 就 話 喇 :
but|Hamlet|then|said|particle indicating completed action
But Hamlet said:
其實 意思 就 係 Country 嘅 前 音 ” Count ”
actually|meaning|just|is|Country|possessive particle|front|sound|Count
Actually, it means the front sound of Country 'Count'.
無錯 就 係 C-u-n-t Cunt喇
that's right|just|is|||||
That's right, it's C-u-n-t Cunt.
呢 個 字 點解 我 諗 大家 都 知 嫁 喇
this|measure word|word|why|I|think|everyone|all|know|marry|particle indicating completed action
I think everyone knows what this word is.
thematters of cunt 嘅 意思 其實 咪 即係 搞嘢
|of|cunt|possessive particle|meaning|actually|don't|just|mess around
the matters of cunt actually means to mess around
套用 返落 呢 一句 詩 嘅 時候
apply|back into|this|one|poem|possessive particle|time
when applying it back to this line of poetry
大家 應該 就 會 明白 咩 叫做 Country Pleasures 嫁 喇
everyone|should|then|will|understand|what|is called|||marry|particle indicating completed action
everyone should understand what is meant by Country Pleasures
之後 嗰句 :
after|that sentence
and then the next line:
The Seven Sleepers' den 係 一個 天主教 故事 嚟
The|Seven|Sleepers'|den|is|a|Catholic|story|comes from
The Seven Sleepers' den is a Catholic story.
中文 叫做 以弗所 之 七聖童
Chinese|is called|Ephesus|possessive particle|Seven Holy Boys

傳說 就 係 講 喺 公元 250 年 左右
legend|just|is|told|at|AD|year|around
The legend tells of events around the year 250 AD.
當時 羅馬帝國 嘅 皇帝 德 西烏斯
at that time|Roman Empire|possessive particle|emperor|Decius|Trajanus
At that time, the emperor of the Roman Empire was Decius.
因為 信奉 羅馬 諸神 而 要求 所有 人民 都 要 信奉 同 敬拜 諸神
because|worship|Roman|gods|and|require|all|people|all|must|worship|together|revere|gods
Because of the belief in the Roman gods, it was demanded that all people must also believe in and worship these gods.
否則 格殺勿論

Otherwise, they would be killed without mercy.
同時 亦 都 大規 搜捕 異教徒
at the same time|also|all|large scale|manhunt|heretics
At the same time, there was a large-scale hunt for heretics.
而 呢 個 時候 有 七個 細路 佢 哋 只 係 信奉 上帝 係 唯一 嘅 神
and|this|measure word for people|time|has|seven|children|they|plural marker|only|are|believe in|God|is|only|possessive particle|God
At this time, there were seven children who only believed in God as the one true God.
所以 為 咗 免於 恐懼

So in order to avoid fear
佢 哋 逃走 咗 去 以弗所 城外 嘅 一個 山洞 入面 避難
They|plural marker|escaped|past tense marker|to|Ephesus|outside the city|possessive particle|a|cave|inside|took refuge
they fled to a cave outside the city of Ephesus to take refuge
而德 西烏斯 知道 咗 呢 件 事 之後 就 派 人 封 咗 個 洞口 佢
Erdek|Sirus|knew|past tense marker|this|measure word for events|matter|after|then|sent|people|sealed|past tense marker|measure word for holes|hole|he
and after Decius learned of this, he sent people to seal the cave entrance
過 咗 差 唔多 百幾 二百 年 之後
past|completed action marker|about|not much|a little over a hundred|two hundred|years|later
About a hundred or two hundred years later
新 上位 嘅 羅馬帝國 皇帝 狄奧多 西 二世 因為 信奉 天主教 嘅 關係
new|ascended to the throne|possessive particle|Roman Empire|emperor|Theodosius|the West|II|because|professing|Catholicism|possessive particle|relationship
The newly ascended Roman Emperor Theodosius II, due to his adherence to Catholicism,
已經 無 再 叫 人 搜捕 異教徒
already|no|again|call|people|hunt down|heretics
no longer ordered the hunting of heretics.
而 地主 有見 及 此 就 諗 住 用個 山洞 嚟 畜牧
and|landlord|has seen|and|this|then|thought|to live|use a|cave|to|raise livestock
Seeing this, the landowners thought of using a cave for livestock.
所以 就 叫 人 解封 咗 個 洞口
so|then|asked|people|to unblock|past tense marker|the|hole
So they had the cave entrance unsealed.
點之 唔 解 尤自 可
how to|not|understand|especially|possible
How come I don't understand it myself?
一解 就 發現 有 七個 細路 喺 入 面
as soon as|then|discovered|there are|seven|children|at|inside|side
Once I figured it out, I found there were seven kids inside.
而且 佢 哋 自稱 只 係 瞓 咗 一日
and|they|plural marker|claim|only|are|sleep|past tense marker|one day
Moreover, they claimed they had only slept for one day.
仲派 咗 其中 一位 入 以弗所 城 買 嘢食
still sending|past tense marker|among them|one person|to enter|Ephesus|city|buy|food
They even sent one of them into Ephesus to buy food.
因為 佢哋 仲係 用緊 德西烏斯 時代 嘅 錢幣
because|they|still|using|Dasius|era|possessive particle|currency
Because they are still using the currency from the time of Daxius.
所以 就 引起 咗 大家 嘅 注意 ,其中 包括 以弗所 城 嘅 主教
so|then|attracted|past tense marker|everyone|possessive particle|attention|among them|including|Ephesus|city|possessive particle|bishop
This caught everyone's attention, including the bishop of Ephesus.
主教 有見 及 此 就 立即 傳 召 佢 哋 去 見 佢
bishop|seeing|and|this|then|immediately|send|call|them|plural marker|to|see|him
Seeing this, the bishop immediately summoned them to meet him.
佢 哋 講 咗 呢 個 故事 俾 主教 聽 之後 ,講 咗 幾句 上帝 保佑 就 蒙 主 恩召 咗 喇
They|plural marker|told|past tense marker|this|measure word|story|to|priest|heard|after|said|past tense marker|a few sentences|God|bless|then|receiving|Lord|calling|past tense marker|sentence-final particle
After they told the bishop this story, they said a few words of God's blessing and were called by the Lord.
故事 就 係 咁 上下 ,套用 返 嚟 呢 一句 度
story|just|is|like this|up and down|apply|back|come|this|sentence|context
The story is like this, applying this phrase.
實就 係 講緊 同一個 概念 ,因為 迫害 所以 逃走 入洞 ,一出 洞 就 好似 見到 新 世界 一樣
actually|is|talking about|the same|concept|because|persecution|so|ran away|into the hole|once|hole|then|seems|seeing|new|world|like
It is really talking about the same concept, because of persecution, they escape into a cave, and when they come out of the cave, it feels like seeing a new world.
Donne 哥 喺 呢 度 又 再 一次 強調 「細路 」呢 個 概念 ,佢 覺得 佢 同 個 女 仔 以往 都 係 好似 「細路 」
Donne|brother|at|this|place|again|once more|one time|emphasized|child|this|classifier|concept|he|thinks|he|with|classifier|daughter|son|in the past|all|were|like|child
Donne here emphasizes the concept of 'children' again, he feels that he and his daughter used to be like 'children'.
而 有 啲 嘢 發生 咗 令到 佢 哋 見到 新世界
and|have|some|things|happened|past tense marker|caused|they|plural marker|to see|new world
And some things happened that made them see a new world.
而 snorted 呢 個 字 就 係 用 個 鼻 噴氣 嘅 意思 ,多數 用 嚟 形容 豬
and|snorted|this|measure word|word|then|is|used|measure word|nose|snort|possessive particle|meaning|mostly|used|to|describe|pig
The word 'snorted' means to exhale through the nose, and is mostly used to describe pigs.
而 同時 Den 亦 都 係 解 動物 住 嘅 洞穴 ,所以 咁 樣 理解 嘅 話
and|at the same time|Den|also|all|is|understanding|animal|live|possessive particle|cave|so|this way|appearance|understanding|possessive particle|words
At the same time, 'Den' also refers to the burrow of an animal, so it can be understood in that way.
Donne 就 好似 講 緊 佢 哋 未 相愛 之前 就 好似 動物 嘅 幼年期 一樣 , 所以 到 呢 度 , Donne 頭 四句 就 已經 問 咗 四個 問題
Donne is like saying that before they fell in love, it was like the juvenile stage of animals, so at this point, Donne has already asked four questions in the first four lines.
咁 佢 又 點 答 呢 四個 問題 呢 ?
then|he|again|how|answer|question particle|four|questions|question particle
So how does he answer these four questions?
我 哋 睇 埋 之 後 嗰句 就 知 :
we|plural marker|read|together|possessive particle|after|that sentence|then|know
After we look at the following sentence, we will know:
四個 問題 ,同一個 答案 ,就 係 Twas so
four|questions|same|answer|just|is||
Four questions, one answer, is Twas so.
Twas 嘅 意思 就 係 It Was, 係 It Was 嘅 縮寫
Twas means It Was, it is an abbreviation of It Was.
所以 佢 即 係 話 It Was so, 表示 「 無錯 , 我 哋 曾經 係 細路 , 係 好似 動物 一樣 嘅 小朋友 」
So it means It Was so, indicating "Yes, we were once children, just like little animals."
而 下 一句
and|next|sentence
And the next sentence
即係 解 「呢啲 嘢 加埋 就 好似 無 乜嘢 咁 」,所以 之後 佢 就 講到 :
that is|understand|these|things|added together|then|seems|not|anything|like that|so|afterwards|he|then|talked about
Means to explain "these things added together seem to be nothing much," so afterwards he talked about:
呢 句 有 少少 複雜 ,因為 內裡 都 包含 咗 幾多 嘢
this|sentence|has|a little|complex|because|inside|also|contains|past tense marker|quite a lot|things
This sentence is a bit complicated, because it contains quite a lot of things
不過 應該 唔 難 理解
but|should|not|difficult|understand
However, it should not be difficult to understand
大體 嚟 講有 三個 理解 方向
generally|coming|speaking of|three|understanding|directions
Generally speaking, there are three directions of understanding.
簡單 啲 講 第一句 IfeveranybeautyIdidsee
simple|particle indicating comparison|say|first line|
To put it simply, the first line is 'If ever any beauty I did see'.
入 面 嘅 beauty 可以 理解 成
enter|face|possessive particle|beauty|can|understand|whole
The beauty inside can be understood as.
「所有 佢 有生以來 見過 佢 覺得 靚 嘅 嘢 」,例如 斜陽 之類
all|he|since birth|seen|he|thinks|beautiful|possessive particle|things|for example|setting sun|and so on
'Everything that she has seen in her life that she thinks is beautiful', for example, the setting sun and so on.
加埋 twas but a dream of thee 就 變成 「所有 佢 有生以來 見 過 佢 覺得 靚 嘅 嘢 就 係 用 嚟 預備 依家 我 遇見 你 嘅 美 」
including|it was|only|one|dream|of|you|then|became|all|he|in his life|seen|past|he|thought|beautiful|possessive particle|things|just|is|used|to|prepare|now|I|encountered|you|possessive particle|beauty
Combined with 'twas but a dream of thee, it becomes 'everything beautiful he has ever seen in his life is meant to prepare for the beauty of meeting you now.'
「而當 遇上 妳 之後 就 認為 妳 就 係 我 夢寐以求 想 見到 嘅 嗰樣 靚 嘅 嘢 」
and when|met|you|after|then|thought|you|just|are|I|longed for|wanted|to see|possessive particle|that|beautiful|possessive particle|thing
'And after meeting you, I believe you are the beautiful thing I have always dreamed of seeing.'
所以 喺 呢 一個 層面 上面 , Beauty 係 解 世上 所有 靚 嘅 嘢
so|at|this|one|aspect|on|Beauty|is|understanding|in the world|all|beautiful|possessive particle|things
So on this level, Beauty is the explanation of all beautiful things in the world.
不過 如果 以 另 一個 方向 理解 就 會 有趣 啲 同 真實 啲 ,不過 就 無 上面 咁 浪漫
but|if|in|another|one|direction|understanding|then|will|interesting|more|and|realistic|more|but|then|not|above|that|romantic
However, if understood from another perspective, it would be more interesting and more real, but not as romantic as the above.
就係 基本上 佢 講 嘅 Beauty 就 係指 靚女
just is|basically|he|said|possessive particle|Beauty|just|refers to|pretty girl
Basically, what he means by beauty refers to pretty girls.
簡單 啲 講 即 係 佢 諗 過 幻想 過見過 睇 過遇過 媾過 搞過 咁 多 靚女 入面
To put it simply, he has thought about, fantasized about, seen, encountered, and dealt with so many pretty girls.
都 無 佢 呢 首 詩 講 嘅 女 仔 咁 靚 ,因為 呢 個 女 仔 有 啲 嘢 好 特別
all|not|she|this|measure word for poems|poem|said|possessive particle|girl|child|so|beautiful|because|this|measure word for people|girl|child|has|some|things|very|special
None of them are as beautiful as the girl mentioned in this poem, because this girl has something very special.
聽落 都 幾有 愛意 嘅 雖然 唔 知 個 女仔 Buy 唔 Buy
sounds like|also|quite|affection|particle indicating possession|although|not|know|classifier for people|girl|buy|not|buy
It sounds quite affectionate, although I don't know if the girl buys into it.
而 最 後 一 個 方向 理解 就 比較 深 少少
and|most|last|one|measure word|direction|understanding|then|relatively|deep|a little bit
And the last direction of understanding is a bit deeper.
就係 古希臘 哲學家 Plato 柏拉圖 喺 佢 嘅 Republic 理想國 第七卷
is|Ancient Greek|philosopher|Plato|Plato|in|his|possessive particle|Republic|ideal state|Book VII
It is about the ancient Greek philosopher Plato in his work Republic, Book VII.
一 開始 講 嘅 「地穴 寓言 」AllegoryoftheCave有關
at|the beginning|talking|possessive particle|cave|allegory|
It starts with the 'Allegory of the Cave'.
不過 因為 呢 個 太 深 嘅 關係 ,我 就 唔 講太多
but|because|this|measure word|too|deep|possessive particle|relationship|I|then|not|talk too much
However, because this is too deep, I won't talk too much about it.
我 會 喺 置頂 留言 度 大致 講下 咩 嚟 就算
I|will|at|top|comment|in|roughly|talk about|what|come|even if
I will roughly explain what it is in the pinned comment.
費時 令到 對 哲學 無 乜 了解 嘅 兄弟 姊妹 摸 不著 邊際
time-consuming|causing|towards|philosophy|no|much|understanding|possessive particle|brothers|sisters|touch|not grasping|boundary
It takes time, making it hard for brothers and sisters who have little understanding of philosophy to grasp the concept.
不過 基本上 呢 兩句 我 哋 都 會 理解 到 嘅 係 ,詩入面 呢 個 女仔 對於 Donne 哥 嚟 講 就 係 猶如 完美 嘅 存在
but|basically|this|two sentences|I|we|all|will|understand|to|past tense particle|is|in the poem|this|classifier for people|girl|towards|Donne|brother|coming|speaking|just|is|like|perfect|possessive particle|existence
However, basically, we can understand that in this poem, this girl is talking about Donne as if he is a perfect existence.
所以 我 哋 見到 第二個 Stanza 第 一句 劈頭 就 一句 :
so|we|plural marker|saw|second|stanza|the|line|at the beginning|then|line
So we see that the first line of the second stanza starts with:
首先 Good Morrow 其實 就 係 解 Good Morning 咁 解 ,亦都 可以 指 The Good Morning
first|||actually|just|is|means|||so|means|also|can|refer to|||
First of all, Good Morrow actually means Good Morning, and it can also refer to The Good Morning.
一個 早晨 ,不過 喺 呢 度 Good Morrow 就 係 Good Morning
a|morning|but|at|this|place|||just|is||
A morning, but here Good Morrow is Good Morning.
即係 Goodmorningtoourwakingsouls早晨 我 哋 甦醒 緊 嘅 靈魂
that is||I|we|waking|currently|possessive particle|souls
That is, Good morning to our waking souls.
其實 即係 暗示 以往 佢 哋 嘅 靈魂 係 沉睡 狀態 之中 ,而 依家 佢 哋 嘅 關係 就 係 去 咗 一個 新 嘅 次元
actually|that means|implies|in the past|they|plural marker|possessive particle|soul|is|dormant|state|within|and|now|they|plural marker|possessive particle|relationship|just|is|gone|past tense marker|a|new|possessive particle|dimension
It actually implies that in the past their souls were in a state of slumber, and now their relationship has gone to a new dimension.
琴晚 之前 佢 哋 都 仲 係 小朋友 ,今朝 起身 就 係 進化 咗 喇
last night|before|they|plural marker|all|still|were|children|this morning|woke up|then|were|evolved|past tense marker|sentence final particle
Last night, they were still children, but this morning they have evolved.
因為 乜嘢 ,就 係 因 為 佢 哋 watch not one another out of fear
because|what|then|is|||they|plural marker|watch|not|one|another|out|of|fear
Why? It's because they watch not one another out of fear.
令到 大家 覺得 經過 咗 琴 晚 之後 唔 會 再 怕 大家 會 背叛 對方
causing|everyone|to feel|after|past tense marker|yesterday|evening|after|not|will|again|fear|everyone|will|betray|each other
This made everyone feel that after last night, they would no longer be afraid of each other betraying.
然後 Donne 哥 就 用 咗 兩句 媾女 絕句 嚟 接住 呢 度 ,嗱 學 嘢 喇 咁 多位 兄弟 :
then|Donne|brother|then|used|past tense marker|two lines|flirting|couplet|to|continue|this|place|hey|learn|thing|particle indicating completed action|so|many|brothers
Then Brother Donne used two lines of a love poem to continue from here, so listen up, brothers:
首先 ,簡單 啲 講 就 有 情人 眼裡 出 西施 嘅 英文版
first|simple|more|to say|then|has|lover|in the eyes|to appear|Xi Shi|possessive particle|English version
First of all, simply put, it is the English version of 'Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.'
然後 其實 就 等同於 「有 了 你 頓覺 輕鬆 寫意 」
then|actually|just|equivalent to|have|past tense marker|you|suddenly feel|relaxed|carefree
Then, it is actually equivalent to 'With you, I suddenly feel relaxed and at ease.'
就算 好 細 嘅 地方 都 會 好似 呢 個 世界 咁 大
even if|very|small|possessive particle|place|also|will|be like|this|measure word|world|so|big
Even a small place can feel as big as this world.
個 情況 就 係 當 你 喺 你 愛人 身邊 瞓 醒 嘅 嗰一刻 有 幾 咁 愉快 ,其實 就 係 Donne 哥 嘅 感覺
the|situation|just|is|when|you|at|your|partner|beside|sleep|wake|possessive particle|that moment|have|how|so|happy|actually|just|is|Donne|brother|possessive particle|feeling
The situation is that when you are lying next to your loved one, how pleasant that moment is, it is actually the feeling of Donne.
唔好 唔記得 嘅 係 , Donne 哥 講 呢 句 嘢 嗰陣 仲 係 大 航海 時代 咋 喎
not good|don't remember|past tense particle|is|Donne|older brother|said|this|sentence|thing|at that time|still|was|great|maritime|era|only|sentence-final particle
What should not be forgotten is that Brother Donne said this during the Age of Exploration.
喺 呢 個 時候 Donne 哥 講出 「佢 哋 要 著迷 嘅 嘢 就 只 需要 喺 呢 間 房 同 對方 身上 」
at|this|measure word|time|Donne|brother|said|they|plural marker|need|obsessed|possessive particle|thing|then|only|need|in|this|measure word|room|with|each other|on them
At this time, Brother Donne said, 'What they need to be fascinated by is only in this room and on each other.'
所以 下 一句 就 講到 呢 一樣 嘢
so|next|sentence|then|talking about|this|same|thing
So the next sentence talks about this.
等 啲 探險家 去 探索 唔 同 嘅 新世界 ,呢 度 佢 用 咗 worlds 唔 係 用 Places
wait|plural marker|explorers|to|explore|not|same|possessive particle|new world|this|place|he|used|past tense marker|worlds|not|is|using|Places
Let the explorers explore different new worlds; here he used 'worlds' instead of 'places.'
其實 深層次 意思 就 係 唔 單止 係 地點 咁 簡單 ,更 多 嘅 係 唔 同 嘅 世界
actually|deeper|meaning|just|is|not|only|is|location|so|simple|even|more|possessive particle|is|not|same|possessive particle|world
In fact, the deeper meaning is not just a simple location, but rather different worlds.
由 唔 同 嘅 文化 同 國度 組成 。
composed of|not|same|possessive particle|culture|and|countries|made up of
Composed of different cultures and nations.
然後 就 係 :
then|just|is
And then:
等 我 哋 去 掌握 一個 世界 ,我 哋 兩個 都 有 一個 ,而且 都 係 同一個
wait|I|plural marker|go|master|a|world|I|plural marker|two of us|both|have|a|and also|both|are|the same
Let us grasp a world, we both have one, and it is the same.
其實 好 簡單 去 理解 就 係 「你 就 係 我 嘅 世界 」
actually|very|simple|to|understand|just|is|you|just|are|me|possessive particle|world
Actually, it's very simple to understand, it's just 'You are my world'.
仲 記得 英國 作家 D.H. Lawrence 有 一個 講法 就 係
still|remember|British|writer|||Lawrence|has|one|saying|just|is
I still remember that British writer D.H. Lawrence had a saying that is
'the soul of one man and one woman makes one angel '
the|soul|of|one|man|and|one|woman|makes|one|angel
'the soul of one man and one woman makes one angel'
其實 就 類似 Donne 哥 喺 呢 度 講 嘅
actually|just|similar|Donne|brother|at|this|place|said|past tense particle
It's actually similar to what Brother Donne is saying here.
「 你 有 你 嘅 世界 , 我 有 我 嘅 世界 , 但當 我 同 你 一齊 嘅 陣 , 兩個 世界 就 會合 二為 一 , 而 你 同 我 亦 都 會合 二為 一 」
"You have your world, I have my world, but when I am with you, the two worlds will merge into one, and you and I will also merge into one."
呢 個 可能 喺 現代 成日 都 有人 講 ,你 可以 話 係 cliché 陳腔濫調
this|measure word|might|at|modern|all the time|also|someone|speaks|you|can|say|is|cliché|platitude
This is something that people often say in modern times; you could say it's a cliché.
但 問題 係 喺 嗰個 年頭 算 唔 算 係 cliché 呢 ?
but|question|is|at|that|year|count|not|count|is|cliché|question particle
But the question is, back then, was it considered a cliché?
我哋 去 講 cliché 呢 個 Idea 嗰陣 ,其實 去 諗 嘅 係 點解 cliché 嘅 嘢 會 變成 cliché
we|go|talk|cliché|this|measure word|idea|at that time|actually|to|think|possessive particle|is|why|cliché|possessive particle|thing|will|become|cliché
When we talk about the idea of clichés, we are actually thinking about why certain things become clichés.
就 係 因 為 佢 Work, 好多 人 跟 住 用 所以 先 會 濫
It's because it works, many people follow it, that's why it becomes widespread.
但 如果 我哋 數返 400 年 前 Donne 哥 嘅 年代 ,當時 佢 呢 個 Statement 其實 係 一個 好 原創 嘅 概念
but|if|we|count back|years|ago|Donne|brother|possessive particle|era|at that time|he|this|measure word|statement|actually|is|a|very|original|possessive particle|concept
But if we look back 400 years ago to the time of Donne, his statement was actually a very original concept.
可以 話 係 一個 好 準確 同有 見地 嘅 諗法
can|say|is|a|very|accurate|and has|insight|possessive particle|way of thinking
It can be said to be a very accurate and insightful way of thinking.
所以 睇 返 第二個 Stanza ,我 哋 會 發現 成段 就 係 講緊
so|read|back|second|stanza|I|we|will|find|whole section|just|is|talking about
So looking back at the second stanza, we will find that the whole section is talking about.
「呢 個 世界 所有 嘢 都 唔 再 重要 ,只 係 得 返 你 同 我 」
this|measure word|world|all|things|all|not|anymore|important|only|is|have|back|you|and|I
"In this world, nothing else matters anymore, it's just you and me."
而 第三個 Stanza 一 開始 又 用 咗 一 Pair 好 靚 嘅 句子 :
and|third|stanza|one|started|again|used|past tense marker|one|pair|very|beautiful|possessive particle|sentences
And the third stanza starts with a pair of very beautiful sentences:
第一句 其實 好 簡單 , 試想 像 一下 你 點樣 先 會 喺 其他人 嘅 眼 仔 入 面 見到 你 自己 塊面 ?
The first sentence is actually very simple, just imagine how you would see your own face in the eyes of others?
無錯 就 係 哄 到 好 埋 嗰陣 喇
that's right|just|is|to coax|to|well|together|at that time|particle indicating completed action
That's right, it's about getting really close to that moment.
而 第二句 就 係 講話 「明顯 佢 哋 就 係 真心 相愛 」。
and|second sentence|just|is|saying|obviously|they|plural marker|just|are|truly|in love
And the second sentence is talking about "Clearly, they are truly in love."
之後 又 講到
after|again|talked about
Then it talks about
呢 度 就 回應 返 之前 佢 哋 認 為 佢 哋 係 isone 一體 嘅 概念
this|place|then|response|back|before|they|plural marker|recognize|consider|they|plural marker|are||whole|possessive particle|concept
This part responds to their previous belief that they are one entity.
Hemisphere 係 解 半球 ,咁 兩個 半球 加埋 就 係 一個 球 啦
Hemisphere|is|explained|hemisphere|then|two|hemispheres|combined|then|is|one|sphere|particle
Hemisphere means half a sphere, so two hemispheres together make a whole sphere.
咁 佢 哋 嗰一刻 見到 邊度 有 半球 呢 ?
then|they|plural marker|at that moment|saw|where|has|hemisphere|question particle
So, at that moment, where did they see the hemisphere?
無錯 就 係 佢 哋 對 眼 喇 。
that's right|just|is|he|they|to|eye|particle indicating completed action
That's right, it was right in their eyes.
所以 喺 對方 嘅 眼睛 入面 見到 嘅 世界
so|at|the other person|possessive particle|eyes|inside|seen|possessive particle|world
So the world seen in the other person's eyes
比起 佢 用 佢 對 眼 睇 到 嘅 南半球 或者 北半球 都 更加 靚
compared to|he|using|his|pair of|eyes|seeing|to|possessive particle|Southern Hemisphere|or|Northern Hemisphere|all|even more|beautiful
is even more beautiful than what they see in their own eyes, whether it's the Southern Hemisphere or the Northern Hemisphere.
其實 間接 即係 講 咗 呢 個 喺 眼睛 見到 樣 嘅 距離 嘅 呢 一 刻 比 呢 個 世界 都 靚
actually|indirectly|means|talking|past tense marker|this|measure word|at|eyes|seeing|appearance|possessive particle|distance|possessive particle|this|one|moment|compared to|this|measure word|world|also|beautiful
In fact, indirectly it means that this moment, seen through the eyes, is more beautiful than this world.
而 喺 第二句 我 哋 會 見到 兩個 重點 : Sharp North 同 Declining West
and|at|second sentence|we|plural marker|will|see|two|key points|||and||
And in the second sentence, we will see two key points: Sharp North and Declining West.
先講 Sharp North ,我 哋 可以 理解 成 一個 「尖 嘅 嘢 」同 「北方 」
first talk about|||I|we|can|understand|whole|one|sharp|possessive particle|thing|and|north
First, let's talk about Sharp North; we can understand it as a 'sharp thing' and 'north'.
咩 地方 會 見到 「北方 」同 「尖 嘅 嘢 」兩個 概念 一齊 呢 ?
what|place|will|see|north|and|sharp|possessive particle|thing|two|concepts|together|question particle
What place can we see both the concepts of 'north' and 'sharp thing' together?
以 嗰個 年代 最 直觀 嘅 角度 睇 就 係 呢 樣 嘢
from|that|era|most|intuitive|possessive particle|perspective|view|then|is|this|kind|thing
From the most intuitive perspective of that era, this is what it is.
指南針 可以 借代 旅程 , 指南針 基本上 係 最 重要 嘅 必需品
A compass can symbolize a journey; the compass is essentially the most important necessity.
一個 地方 推移 嘅 概念
a|place|transition|possessive particle|concept
The concept of a place evolving.
Declining 本身 有 一個 衰退 嘅 意思 ,例如 Decliningyears 就 係 晚年 嘅 意思
Declining|itself|has|a|decline|possessive particle|meaning|for example||just|is|old age|possessive particle|meaning
Declining itself has a meaning of decline; for example, 'declining years' means old age.
咁 乜嘢 同 「衰退 」同埋 「西方 」嘅 概念 有關 呢 ?
then|what|with|recession|and|Western|possessive particle|concept|related|question particle
So what is related to the concepts of 'decline' and 'the West'?
無錯 就 係 太陽 喇 。
no mistake|just|is|sun|particle indicating completed action
That's right, it's the sun.
東方 昇 西方 落 ,回應 返 呢 首 詩 嘅 主題 : Good Morrow 早晨
East|rises|West|sets|responding|to|this|first|poem|possessive particle|theme|Good|Morrow|morning
The east rises and the west sets, responding to the theme of this poem: Good Morrow.
同 呢 度 嘅 落日 之 景 ,講 嘅 就 係 時間 推移
this|here|at|possessive particle|sunset|of|scenery|talking|particle indicating past action|just|is|time|passage
And the sunset scene here speaks of the passage of time.
無論 時間 同 地方 都 唔 及 佢 同 個 女 仔 之間 嘅 呢 一刻 呢 一個 場景 咁 重要
no matter|time|and|place|all|not|compare to|he|with|the|daughter|son|between|possessive particle|this|moment|this|one|scene|so|important
No matter the time and place, this moment, this scene between him and his daughter is so important.
之後 就 去 到 最後 三句
after|then|go|arrive|last|three sentences
Then we move on to the last three sentences.
第一句 就 有 此少少 迂迴 ,呢個 世界 逝去 嘅 嘢 都 係 因為 唔 平衡
the first sentence|then|has|this little|roundabout|this|world|passing|possessive particle|things|all|are|because|not|balance
The first sentence is somewhat roundabout; the things that have passed in this world are all due to imbalance.
所以 佢 就 其實 講緊 自己 同 個 女 仔 嘅 愛 都 會 一樣
so|he|then|actually|talking about|himself|with|the|daughter|son|possessive particle|love|also|will|the same
So he is actually talking about his love for his daughter being the same.
不過 呢 樣 嘢 唔 會 發生 ,因為 佢 加埋 之 後嗰 兩句
but|this|thing|thing|not|will|happen|because|he|added together|possessive particle|the last|two sentences
However, this thing will not happen, because of the two sentences that follow.
之後 兩句 嘅 意思 其實 即係
after|two sentences|possessive particle|meaning|actually|that is
The meaning of the two sentences afterwards is actually.
如果 你 愛我 就 等同於 我愛你 咁 多 ,如果 我哋 繼續 好似 呢 一夜 咁 相愛 落 去 ,咁 無 嘢 會 逝去
if|you|love me|then|is equivalent to|I love you|so|much|if|we|continue|like|this|one night|so|love each other|on|go|so|nothing|thing|will|pass away
If you love me, it is equivalent to me loving you this much. If we continue to love each other like this night, then nothing will pass away.
None can die 更加 可以 理解 成 Immortal 不 死 嘅 概念
None|can|die|even more|can|understand|become|Immortal|not|die|possessive particle|concept
None can die, and it can further understand the concept of Immortal.
所謂 不死 的 真愛 就 係 呢啲 ,但 咩 叫 不死 的 真愛 呢 ?
so-called|undying|possessive particle|true love|just|is|these|but|what|is called|undying|possessive particle|true love|question particle
The so-called immortal true love is this, but what is immortal true love?
咪 即係 愛是 永恆 當 所愛 是 你 囉
don't|that means|love is|eternal|when|beloved|is|you|particle indicating certainty
Isn't it that love is eternal when the beloved is you?
不過 最後 呢 句 就 有 啲 位 值得 諗 下 ,就 係 嗰個 女仔 其實 點 諗
but|in the end|this|sentence|then|has|a little|aspect|worth|thinking|about|then|is|that|girl|actually|how|thinks
However, the last sentence has some points worth pondering, which is how that girl actually thinks.
因為 我 哋 從 成首詩 都 見到 Donne 哥 係 好 Emotional 好 感觸
because|I|plural marker|from|the whole poem|all|see|Donne|brother|is|very|emotional|very|touching
Because we can see from the entire poem that Donne is very emotional and deeply touched.
而 佢 喺 第二個 Stanza 講 嘅 係 Our waking Souls 我 哋 甦醒 緊 嘅 靈魂
and|he|at|second|stanza|said|that|is|our|waking|souls|I|we|waking|currently|possessive particle|souls
And what he talks about in the second stanza is our waking souls.
而 唔 係 my waking soul 我 甦醒 緊 嘅 靈魂
and|not|is|my|waking|soul|I|waking|currently|possessive particle|soul
And not my waking soul.
咁 其實 係 咪 代表 Donne 哥 都 知道 個 女 仔 都 係 相同 諗 法 呢 ?
so|actually|is|just|represent|Donne|brother|also|knows|the|daughter|son|also|is|same|thinking|method|question particle
So actually, does this mean that Donne also knows that the girl has the same thoughts?
當然 唔 係 啦 ,呢 個 就 係 Donne 哥 高手 嘅 地方
of course|not|is|particle|this|measure word|just|is|Donne|brother|expert|possessive particle|place
Of course not, this is where Donne's skill lies.
寫 情詩 最高 嘅 境界 就 係 唔 知醜 ,寫 呢 首詩 就 係 想 話 俾 個 女 仔 知 Donne 哥 好 冧 妳
write|love poem|highest|possessive particle|realm|just|is|not|self-aware of ugliness|write|this|poem|just|is|want|tell|to|classifier for people|girl|child|know|Donne|brother|very|like|you
The highest realm of writing love poetry is not knowing shame. Writing this poem is to tell the girl that Donne really likes her.
同 你 搞完 嘢 之後 有 啲 嘢 仲 變 咗 添 ,所以 如果 佢 用 my waking soul 其實 無 乜 說服力
with|you|finish|thing|after|there are|some|things|still|change|past tense marker|additional|so|if|he|uses|my|waking|soul|actually|not|any|persuasive power
After we finished, some things have changed, so if he uses 'my waking soul', it actually lacks persuasion.
但 如果 用 Our waking Souls 咁 就 有 說服力 得 多 , 因為 可以 話 埋 俾個 女仔 聽 , 我知 你 都 Enjoy 嘅
But if he uses 'Our waking Souls', then it is much more persuasive, because it can also tell the girl, I know you enjoy it too.
都 鍾意 我 嘅 咁 樣 。
all|like|me|possessive particle|so|appearance
You also like me like this.
不過 因為 呢 首 係 情詩 嚟 嫁 嘛
However, because this song is a love poem.
都 係 唔 包 生仔 嘅 ,大家 都 唔 會 知 個 女仔 諗 乜
all||||||||||know|particle|girl|think|what
It also doesn't include having children, so no one will know what the girl is thinking.
所以 尾二 嗰句 個 If 字 就 好 重要 ,留返 一線
so|second to last|that sentence|the|If|word|then|very|important|leave|a line
So the last two lines with the word 'If' are very important, leaving a possibility.
如果 你 愛我 就 等同於 我愛你 咁 多 , 如果
If you love me, it is equivalent to me loving you that much, if.
Donne 哥 呢 度 又 教識 咗 大家 一樣 嘢 就 係 ,你 寫 情詩 大膽 啲 唔 緊要
Donne|brother|this|place|again|taught|past tense marker|everyone|the same|thing|just|is|you|write|love poem|boldly|more|not|important
Donne taught everyone here one thing, which is, when you write love poems, be bold, it doesn't matter.
但 留 返條 後路 俾 自己 ,等 自己 就算 樣衰 咗 都 仲 有 得 掹 。
but|leave|return|escape route|for|myself|let|myself|even if|looks bad|past tense marker|still|still|have|able|pull
But leave a way out for yourself, so that even if you end up looking bad, you still have a way to escape.
學 嘢 喇 老友
learn|thing|particle|old friend
Learn something, my friend.
其實 The Good Morrow 呢 一首 詩 都 只不過 係 Donne 哥 芸芸 作品 之中 嘅 其中 一首
actually||||this|a|poem|all|just|is|Donne|brother|numerous|works|among|possessive particle|among them|one poem
In fact, The Good Morrow is just one of Donne's many works.
Donne 哥 仲有 好多 作品 都 寫 得 好 正 ,有 機會 再 同 大家 講 下 佢 其他 關於 唔 同 話題 嘅 作品 啦
