[music]God Help The Outcasts
這是眾多迪士尼歌曲中最喜歡的曲子之一
來自電影"鐘樓怪人"Notre Dame de Paris
才發現恰好也改編自Victor Hugo的作品
(我也是Les Miserables的Fans)
想來兩者共同點頗多，
對於人性和當代社會皆有非常寫實的刻劃，
然卻又不失悲憫的情懷
這首曲子亦貼切表達此內涵
尤其歌詞的部分，
真的觸碰到心靈深處那種希望與失望的掙扎
每當心情沮喪時，最能感受到激勵
雖是流行樂，對我來說卻是勵志歌曲呢!!
--
有兩個版本，
一是片中女主角的獨白
另一是邀請貝蒂蜜勒Bette Midler來唱主題曲
歌詞內容略有不同，
曲風和情境也各有特色囉~
女主角獨白版
God Help The Outcasts
Disney Movie: Hunchback of Notre Dame
Esmeralda:
I don't know if you can hear me, or if you're even there
I don't know if you would listen to a gypsy's prayer
Yes, I know I'm just an outcast, I shouldn't speak to you
Still I see your face and wonder: were you once an outcast too?
God help the outcasts
Hungry from birth
Show them the mercy they don't find on earth
God help my people, we look to you still
God help the outcasts, or nobody will
Parishioners:
I ask for wealth
I ask for fame
I ask for glory to shine on my name
I ask for love I can possess
I ask for God and his angels to bless me
Esmeralda:
ask for nothing, I can get by
But I know so many less lucky then I
Please help my people, the porr and downtrod
I thought we all were the children of God
God help the outcasts
Children of God

God Help The Outcasts(鐘樓怪人片尾曲)
Lyrics:Stephen Schwartz Music:Alan Menken
'I don't know if You can hear me or if You're even there.
I don't know if You will listen to a humble prayer.
They tell me I am just an outcast, I shouldn't speak to You.
Still I see Your face and wonder, were You once an outcast too?
God help the outcasts, hungry from birth.
Show them the mercy they don't find on earth.
The lost and forgotten, they look to You still.
God help the outcasts or nobody will.
I ask for nothing, I can get by.
But I know so many less lucky than I.
God help the outcasts, the poor and downtrod
I thought we all were the children of God.
I don't know if there's a reason why some are blessed, some not.
Why the few You seem to favor
They fear us, flee us, try not to see us.
God help the outcasts, the tattered, the torn
Seeking an answer to why they were born.
Winds of misfortune have blown them about.
You made the outcasts, don't cast them out.
The poor and unlucky, the weak and the odd,
I thought we all were the children of God.'

[知識]翮-鳳翮
[知識]遠展驥足，高揮鳳翮
來個每日一字的單元
先說說起因是認識了一個學過漢文的瑞士女生
中文好到不行，興趣是練書法，
中文名字好像是書法老師取的
叫做 鳳翮
寫出來的時候我們還不太會念，
是非常古老富有深意的字，
整個就立刻感覺到具有高遠的涵意
(此時忽然覺得我們現代人的名字跟古人差遠了)
---
每日一字就來介紹囉...
翮
拼音：hé 注音：ㄏㄜˊ(同音-合)
部首：羽 分解查字：鬲羽(geyu)
含義:
1.鳥翎的莖，翎管。
2.鳥的翅膀：舉翮。振翮高飛。
相關詞語:
三翮六翼 歸翮 仙翮 雨翮風翎 奮翮 鳳翮 六翮 雲翮
文翮 迭翮 幹翮 輪翮 飛翮 遼天翮 迅翮 翮翰
鵰翮 鱗翮 翼翮 合翮
相關成語:羽翮飛肉
【詞語】鳳翮 fèng hé
(1).鳳凰的羽翅。比喻傑出的人或傑出的才幹。《初學記》卷二八引
南朝 宋 劉義恭 《華林四瑞桐樹甘露贊》：“遠延鳳翮，遙集鸞步。”
唐 呂溫 《淩煙閣勳臣頌•殷鄖公開山》：“遠展驥足，高揮鳳翮。”
明 陳子龍 《送倪鴻寶少司馬》詩：“幾年鳳翮在文昌，此日龍韜開武庫。”
(2).稱美琴的兩側。
唐 王績 《答馮子華處士書》：[裴孔明]自作素琴一張，雲其材 嶧陽 孤桐也。
近攜以相過，安軫立柱，龍脣鳳翮，實與常琴不同。
今天每日一字到此，下次敬請期待~

[哲思]Meryl Streep:make your parents proud of you
[哲思]梅莉史翠普Meryl Streep spoke to Barnard's graduating class
梅莉史翠普精彩的演技無庸置疑
最初她也是以清純甜美的形象走紅
三十多年的演員生涯
經過歲月和人生的歷練
六十歲的她，綻放出比青春更耀眼的光芒
於是我告訴自己，永遠要堅持
--
梅莉史翠普在哥倫比亞大學巴納德女子學院的畢業典禮上
分享自己的成長過程以及人生經歷帶來的收穫
節錄我最喜歡的幾個段落分享
You, young women of Barnard have not had to squeeze yourself into the corset of being cute or to muffle your opinions but you haven't left campus yet. I'm just kidding. What you have had is the privilege of a very specific education. You are people who may able to draw on a completely different perspective to imagine a different possibility than women and men who went to coed schools.
How this difference is going to serve you it's hard to quantify now, it may take you forty years like it did me to analyze your advantage. But today is about looking forward into a world where so-called women's issues, human issues of gender inequality lie at the crux of global problems from poverty to the AIDS crisis to the rise in violent fundamentalist juntas, human trafficking and human rights abuses and you're going to have the opportunity and the obligation, by virtue of your providence, to speed progress in all those areas. And this is a place where the need is very great, the news is too.
各位巴納德的女畢業生們，你們這一代不必裝可愛或壓抑自己的看法，你們接受了高等教育，可以想像一條跟過去一代非常不同的道路。眼前全世界有許多問題，從貧窮、愛滋、人口走私到人權侵犯等，全都肇因於性別的不平等。未來，你們將有機會、也有責任，推動這些問題的改進。
This is your time and it feels normal to you but really there is no normal. There's only change, and resistance to it and then more change.
這是一個屬於你們的時代，你們或許覺得，本來就該這樣，沒什麼稀奇，事實上，我們的世界從來沒有所謂的常態，只有不斷地改變、抗拒改變，然後是更多改變。
Never before in the history or country have most of the advanced degrees been awarded to women but now they are. Since the dawn of man, it's hardly more than 100 years since we were even allowed into these buildings except to clean them but soon most of law and medical degrees will probably also go to women. Around the world, poor women now own property who used to be property and according to Economist magazine, for the last two decades, the increase of female employment in the rich world has been the main driving force of growth. Those women have contributed more to global GDP growth than have either new technology or the new giants India or china. Cracks in the ceiling, cracks in the door, cracks in the Court and on the Senate floor.
歷史上從不曾有一刻像現在這樣，許多高等學位都頒發給了女性。一百年前，女人在這些學校裡，還只能當清潔工，但再過不久，大部份的法律、醫學學位可能都會被女性拿走；全球各地，過去被當成財產的貧窮婦女們，現在開始擁有自己的財產；《經濟學人》更指出，女性勞動力的增加，是過去二十年來，工業國家經濟成長的主要驅動力，她們對於全球GDP成長的貢獻之大，甚至超過了新科技，或者中國、印度這些新興巨人。
I know I was invited here because of that. How famous I am. I how many awards I've won and while I am I am overweeningly proud of the work that, believe me, I did not do on my own. I can assure that awards have very little bearing on my own personal happiness. My own sense of well-being and purpose in the world. That comes from studying the world feelingly, with empathy in my work. It comes from staying alert and alive and involved in the lives of the people that I love and the people in the wider world who need my help.
我被邀請來這裡致詞，是因為我的成功和名氣，但無論我拿下多少獎項，得獎這件事，對於我的個人幸福、人生的目的感，其實並沒有太多影響。對我來說，人生真正的意義，來自於用真切的感情，研究這個世界；來自於關注我所珍愛的人，以及那些需要我幫助的人。
Being a celebrity has taught me to hide but being an actor has opened my soul.
當上名人，讓我學會了要隱身，但是成為演員，卻打開了我的靈魂。
Being here today has forced me to look around inside there for something useful that I can share with you and I'm really grateful you gave me the chance.
如今這一切促使我更能關注內在有益的事務，這就是我所與各位分享的，感謝你們給我這個機會
You know you don't have to be famous. You just have to make your mother and father proud of you and you already have. Bravo to you. Congratulations.
你不必非得成名不可，你只要讓父母親為你感到光榮，就已足夠。而這一點，你們都已經做到了。
