问尔所之,是否如适 Are you going to Scarborough Fair
蕙兰芫荽,郁郁香芷 Parsely sage rosemary and thyme
彼方淑女,凭君寄辞 Remember me to one who lives there
伊人曾在,与我相知 She once was a true love of mine
嘱彼佳人,备我衣缁 Tell her to make me a cambric shirt
蕙兰芫荽,郁郁香芷 Parsely sage rosemary and thyme
勿用针剪,无隙无疵 Without no seams nor needle work
伊人何在,慰我相思 Then she will be a true love of mine
伴唱:
彼山之阴,深林荒址 On the side of hill in the deep forest green
冬寻毡毯,老雀燕子 Tracing of sparrow on snow crested brown
雪覆四野,高山迟滞 Blankets and bed clothers the child of maintain
眠而不觉,寒笳清嘶 Sleeps unaware of the clarion call
嘱彼佳人,营我家室 Tell her to find me an acre of land
蕙兰芫荽,郁郁香芷 Parsely sage rosemary and thyme
良田所修,大海之坻 Between the salt water and the sea strand
伊人应在,任我相视 Then she will be a true love of mine
伴唱:
彼山之阴,叶疏苔蚀 On the side of hill a sprinkling of leaves
涤彼孤冢,珠泪渐渍 Washes the grave with slivery tears
昔我长剑,日日拂拭 A soldier cleans and polishes a gun
寂而不觉,寒笳长嘶 Sleeps unaware of the clarion call
嘱彼佳人,收我秋实 Tell her to reap it with a sickle of leather
蕙兰芫荽,郁郁香芷 Parsely sage rosemary and thyme
敛之集之,勿弃勿失 And gather it all in a bunch of heather
伊人犹在,唯我相誓 Then she will be a ture love of mine
伴唱:
烽火印啸,浴血之师 War bellows blazing in scarlet battalions
将帅有令,勤王之事 Generals order their soldiers to kill and to fight for a cause
争斗缘何,久忘其旨 They have long ago forgoten
痴而不觉,寒笳悲嘶 Sleeps unaware of the clarion call

《微风轻哨》 是韦伯在九十年代的少数作品之一。虽然它没有八十年代那些大歌舞剧的滂渤声势和经久不衰的人气,但是这部剧中有几首旋律优美的歌曲,《微风轻哨》自出品之后就一直得到好评。在韦伯五十岁生日会上,就有“无论如何”(No Matter What),“微风轻哨”(Whistle Down the Wind),“天堂的阀”(The Vaults of Heaven),“轮胎印和破碎的心”(Tire Tracks and Brocken Hearts) 四首歌出现,是他所有音乐剧中暴光最多的一个。
俺最喜欢tina Arena所唱的Whistle Down the Wind
Whistle down the wind
Let your voices carry
Drown out all the rain
Light a patch of darkness
Treacherous and scary
How l at the stars
Whisper when you're sleepy
I'll be there you hold you
I'll be there to stop
The chills and all the weeping
Make it clear and strong
So the whole night long
Every signal that you send
Until the very end
I will not abandon you my precious friend
So try and stand the tide
Then you'll raise a banner
Send a flare up in the sky
Try to burn a torch
And try to build a bonfire
Every signal that you send
Until the very end
I'm there
So whistle down the wind
For I have always been right there
