the Three Lazy Ones
A king had three sons whom he loved equally well, and he did not know which of them to appoint as king following his own death
When the time came for him to die he called them to his bed and said, “Dear children, I have thought of something that I will reveal to you The one of you is the laziest shall bee king after me”
the oldest one said, “Father, then the kingdom belongs to me, for I am so lazy that whenever I lie down to sleep, and a drop falls into my eyes, I will not even close them so that I can fall asleep”
the second one said, “Father, the kingdom belongs to me, for I am so lazy that when I am sitting by the fire warming myself, I would rather let my heels burn up than to pull my legs back”
the third one said, “Father, the kingdom is mine, for I am so lazy that if I were going to be hanged and already had the rope around my neck, and someone put into my hand a sharp knife with which to cut the rope, I would let myself be hanged rather than to lift my hand up to the rope”
When the father heard this he said, “You have taken it the farthest and shall be king”
在一个遥远的地方,有一个国王,他有三个儿子,对每一个儿子他都非常喜爱,他不知道自己死后应该把王位传给他们三个中的哪一个。所以,当他快要死的时候,就把他们叫到身边说:“亲爱的孩子们,在我死后,你们三个中谁最懒,谁就继承我的王位。”老大说:“既然这样,这王位就是我的,因为我是最懒的儿子,当我躺下睡觉时,有任何东西落到我的眼睛里,我也懒得去擦掉,即使不能把眼睛闭上,我仍然会继续睡觉。”二儿子说:“爸爸,王位应该传给我,因为我是最懒的儿子。当我坐在火边取暖的时候,就是火燃到我的脚趾,我也懒得把腿收回来。”第三个儿子说:“爸爸,这王位是我的,因为我是你最懒的儿子,如果我就要被吊起来,绳子已经套在了脖子上,有人把一把锋利的小刀塞在我手里,要我切断绳子,我宁愿被吊起来也懒得擡起手把绳子割断。”父亲听到这里说道:“你是最合适的人选,你应该继承王位。”
花了半小时找了七八个版本,Youtube上相关视频也不少,你能把你对听的版本的歌词第二句也没有印象??一点线索没有真的无从下手
版本一(个人觉得这个版本唱起来比较顺些):
Please don't say "You are lazy"
because I'm actually crazy!
The swans,that's right
what you can't see is that they thrash about when swimming!
I'm obedient and loyal to my instincts, I'll even accept being made fun of!
A bright future is offered to me…
that's why I take a break once in a while
With these eyes I'll confirm
my destination and Mark it on my map!
If there's a shortcut, that would be easier,
if there's are wings to make it even shorter, it would be great!
Damn! I broke a nail, so I fixed it with glue
With that I somehow I got a feeling of achievement
The important thing is to love oneself,
if you don't love yourself, you won't love other people
Please don't say “You are lazy”
because I'm actually crazy!
Skilled hawks, that's right,
they hide their talons!
I try hard to imagine it, but reality drives me up into a corner…
I'm midway to development…
that's why I suddenly go out of pitch
It won't be projected in my eyes because
my Motivation breaks the Meter…
I always dream with all my power,
but in return, I sleep with all my power
I lost a bit of weight…in my excitement, I ate…
Why did that happen I feel defeated…
Without any delay, I lower my own objectives
I'm flexible enough to adapt…my Kabuki dance will win!
Please don't say “You are lazy”
because I'm actually crazy!
The peacocks, that's right,
they say “This is it!” when they are enchanted by beauty!
I struggle and push for my whole body to lose weight…to be a beauty,
though, there are lots of temptations…
that's why I desperately break my will
Damn! Don't tell me…a Red Point! No, barely cleared it!
With that I feel omnipotent!
The important thing is to accept oneself,
if you don't forgive yourself, you won't be able to forgive other people!
Please don't' say “You are lazy”
because I'm actually crazy!
The swans, that's right
what you can't see is that they thrash about when swimming!
I'm obedient and loyal to my instincts, I'll even accept being made fun of!
A bright future is offered to me…
that's why I take a break once in a while
版本二:
Please don't say "You are lazy"
Because seriosuly, we are crazy
When even the graceful swan
Thrashes its legs about underwater
We're truly following our instincts, open to criticism anytime
We got a bright future anyway
That's why we need to take a break sometimes
Judge the course carefully with your very own eyes
And mark your destinations on the map
Where there's a shortcut (take it), that's a given
Got wings to take you there That's better
"Oh crap, I broke my nail!" and you fix it with glue
And just that can make you feel so accomplished
You need to take good care of yourself, that's important
You can't love others if you don't love yourself first
Please don't say "You are lazy"
Because seriosuly, we are crazy
When even the wise eagle
Hides away and peeks at corners
Imagination is everything because reality is doomed
We're not the finished article yet
That's why we inadvertently sing off-pitch (sometimes)
The fact that (what you want) isn't in front of your eyes
Can break your motivation limits
So when you go dream a lot, with all your might
You're also sleeping, with all your might
"Alright! I got a bit thinner" but in victory, you ate
And just that can make you feel so defeated
You need to lower your expectations quickly
Be flexible with your aims, those who adapt will win
Please don't say "You are lazy"
Because seriosuly, we are crazy
When even the charming peacock
Shows its beauty when it feels the time is now
We work on every single cell inside our bodies, wanting to be slim, pretty women
We get wooed all the time too
That's why we get badly distracted (sometimes)
"Uh oh, is that a red mark Wait no, I barely made it!"
And just that can make you feel so smart
You need to keep being proud of what you can do, that's important
You can't accept others if you don't accept yourself first
Please don't say "You are lazy"
Because seriosuly, we are crazy
When even the graceful swan
Thrashes its legs about underwater
We're truly following our instincts, open to criticism anytime
We got a bright future anyway
That's why we need to take a break sometimes
