望春風 (Wang Chun Feng)
作曲: 鄧雨賢
作詞: 李臨秋
1933

獨夜無伴守燈下 / 清風對面吹 /
十七八 未出嫁 / 見著少年家 /
果然標緻面肉白 / 誰家人子弟 /
想要問伊驚呆勢 / 心內彈琵琶 /

思要郎君作夫婿 / 意愛在心內 /
待何時 君來採 / 青春花當開 /
忽聽外頭有人來 / 開門該看覓 /
月老笑阮憨大獃 / 互風騙不知 /

Fascination (Valse Tzigane)


Original French version, sung by “Florelle” (Odette Rousseau) French singer and actor

Original French version, sung by Madeleine Marie “Mado” Robin, French coloratura soprano
For the definitive rendition of Fascination, look no further. This is it! Unfortunately Robin transposes the key upward five steps, making it impossible for mere mortals to use her rendition as a baseline for learning the song.

Original French version, sung by Lia Origoni, Italian soprano
This is probably the optimal version for most singers, lower key, slower tempo, only one verse, only 4 minutes long instead of 5.

Original French version, sung by Mathé Altéry, French soprano

English version, sung by Richard Tauber, Austrian tenor

Estonian version, sung by Georg Ots, Estonian baritone

Dick Manning’s English version, sung by Jane Morgan, American torch singer
The best English language version, hands down. Morgan studied to be an opera singer at Julliard. She sang torch songs in nightclubs to pay her way. Ironically that became her career!

Fascination (Valse Tzigane) 迷戀 (吉普賽華爾茲)
Music by Fermo Dante “F.D.” Marchetti, 1904
(often misattributed to Maurice Ravel)

Original French Lyrics by Maurice de Féraudy, 1905
Published in 1932

[ Chorus:
Je t’ai rencontrée simplement,
Et tu n’as rien fait pour chercher à me plaire.
Je t’aime pourtant, d’un amour ardent,
Dont rien, je le sens, ne pourra me défaire.

Tu seras toujours mon amante
Et je crois à toi comme au bonheur suprême.
Je te fuis parfois, mais je reviens quand même.
C’est plus fort que moi: Je t’aime. ]

[ Verse 1:
Lorsque je souffre, il me faut tes yeux
Profonds et joyeux, afin que j’y meure
Et j’ai besoin pour revivre, amour,
De t’avoir un jour, moins qu’un jours, une heure!

De me bercer un peu dans tes bras,
Quand mon coeur est las, quand parfois je pleure.
Ah! Crois-le bien, ma chérie, mon aimée, (mon roi/ma reine),
Je n’ai de bonheur qu’avec toi. ]

[ Chorus ]

[ Verse 2:
C’est toi l’amie quand est mort l’espoir,
Dont on rêve un soir, et que l’âme implore,
L’amie fidèle et jamais constante,
Et la seule pourtant et (qu’une femme/qu’un homme) adore!

Sous tes baisers les chagrins passés
Sont vite effacés, et l’on s’aime encore!
Ah! Crois-le bien, ma chérie, mon aimée, (mon roi/ma reine),
Je n’ai de bonheur qu’avec toi. ]

Reviens-moi!
Reviens-moi!

[ Chorus ]

法文翻譯成中文: 陳柏蓉

[ 副歌:
才與你相遇
你並未嘗試討我歡心
但是我仍舊愛你,用我炙熱的心愛著你
我感覺得到,也無法擺脫

你永永遠遠都會是我的愛
也是我最大的的幸福所在
也許我有時會逃離,但最終都會回來
這種感覺好強烈讓我無法自拔:我愛你 ]

[ 主歌 1:
當我受苦時,我需要疑視你的雙眸
這樣我就能在你深遂又歡愉的眼中死去
我需要再次重生,我的愛
只為了擁有你一天,半天,甚至一小時!

輕搖我於你的懷裡
當我的心疲憊不堪,當我悲傷哭泣
啊!相信我,我的寶貝,我的愛,我的 (國王/女王)
沒有你,幸福於我是何物 ]

[ 副歌 ]

[ 主歌 2:
你是我希望破滅時的好友
你是我每晚夢想,靈魂渴望的唯一對象
一個忠實而難能可貴的朋友
一個讓 (女人/男人) 深深愛慕的人

有了你的吻,昔日的悲傷,
就能快速安撫平,我又再次墜入愛河
啊!相信我,我的寶貝,我的愛,我的 (國王/女王)
沒有你,幸福於我是何物 ]

回到我身邊吧!
回到我身邊吧!

[ 副歌 ]

French translated into English

[ Chorus:
I only just met you,
And you did nothing to seek to please me.
I love you nonetheless, with an ardent love
From which nothing, I feel, will deliver me.

You will always be my lover
And I regard you as my supreme happiness.
I may flee from you at times but will return all the same.
It’s stronger than I: I love you! ]

[ Verse 1:
When I suffer, I need your eyes,
Deep and joyous, so that I may die in them,
And I need to live again, my love,
To have you for one day, less than one day, one hour!

To rock myself a little in your arms,
When my heart is weary, when sometimes I weep.
Ah! Believe it truly, my dear, my beloved, (my king/my queen),
There is no happiness without you. ]

[Chorus]

[ Verse 2:
You were a friend when hope was dead,
The one I dream of in the evening, and for whom my soul begs,
A faithful friend who is never constant,
The only one a (woman/man) can adore!

With your kisses, the old griefs
Are soon effaced, and I fall in love again.
Ah! Believe it truly, my dear, my beloved, (my king/my queen),
There is no happiness without you. ]

Return to me!
Return to me!

English Lyrics by Dick Manning

It was fa-sci-na-tion / I know /
And it might have en-ded right then / at the start /
Just a pass-ing glance / just a brief ro-mance /
And I might have gone on my way / emp-ty-hear-ted /

It was fa-sci-na-tion / I know /
See-ing you a-lone / with the moon-light a-bove /
Then I touched your hand / and next mo-ment / I kiss-ed you /
Fa-sci-na-tion turn-ed / to / love!

Su finiscila coi baci
It ends with kisses
Bel moruccio birichin
[from] A handsome dark-haired rascal
E non vedi tu la luna
And don’t you see the moon
Che dal ciel fa capolin?
That serves to cap the sky?

E se pur la luna spia
And if the moon also spies on us
Noi las ciamola guardar
the chamberlain looks at us
Anzi il pallido suo raggio
Rather its pale rays
Ci consiglia a seguitar!
It counsels us to carry on!

Ma poi chissà? Cosa dirà?
But then who knows? What will it say?
Eh via dirà. Cosa dira? Dira? Dira?
It will say. What will it say? Will say? Will say?
