I Dreamt I Dwelt in Marble Halls - 我夢見我住在大理石大廳裡

 The Bohemian Girl - I Dreamt I Dwelt in Marble Halls

近日欣賞到旋律優美的詠嘆調"I Dreamt I Dwelt in Marble Halls", 也被Joan Sutherland歌聲深深吸引。 



《波希米亞女孩》(The Bohemian Girl )

《波希米亞女孩》(The Bohemian Girl )是一部英國浪漫主義歌劇,由邁克爾·威廉·巴爾夫 (Michael William Balfe) 創作,劇本由阿爾弗雷德·邦恩 (Alfred Bunn) 創作。 情節大致基於米格爾·德·塞萬提斯 (Miguel de Cervantes) 的故事 La Gitanilla。

這歌劇中最著名的詠嘆調是"I Dreamt I Dwelt in Marble Halls" (我夢見我住在大理石大廳裡),其中阿琳(Arline)描述了她對童年的模糊記憶。 






I dreamt I dwelt in marble halls
With vassals and serfs at my side,
And of all who assembled within those walls
That I was the hope and the pride.
I had riches all too great to count
And a high ancestral name.

But I also dreamt which pleased me most
That you loved me still the same,
That you loved me
You loved me still the same,
That you loved me
You loved me still the same.

I dreamt that suitors sought my hand,
That knights upon bended knee
And with vows no maidens heart could withstand,
They pledged their faith to me.
And I dreamt that one of that noble host
Came forth my hand to claim.

But I also dreamt which charmed me most
That you loved me still the same
That you loved me
You loved me still the same,
That you loved me
You loved me still the same.
