那天下午,约了美人儿J见面喝咖啡聊天,她问我:“你今天过得怎样啊?”我答:“哦……爽死了!一整个早上都在流眼泪!这几天心情郁卒,有一种快被心中那股郁结的情绪搞死的沉重感,可是一直找不到方法疏解,今天早上一不小心在YouTube上听到一首歌,歌词简单极了,就三句话:‘我不记得那地方在哪里,也想不起那地方的具体,更加忘了怎么去。’我一听到这首歌,眼泪就马上进入自动档,大颗大颗地淌下,我一整个早上都在重复听这首歌,把心中的郁卒统统藉着大颗大颗的眼泪流出来,哭完后,眼睛又红又痛又肿,但是整个心情大大舒畅呀……哭完后,我又觉得‘啊,活着真好!’了。”
难得遇到让我的眼泪得以大颗大颗流下的好歌,当然得和好朋友分享,美人J接过我递给她的手机说:“啊……这首歌是我们5Rhythms的其中一首呀……”真的吗?我今早只顾得上专心听歌流眼泪,根本没留意这首歌的来头,这会儿仔细一看,咿呀!还真的咧,只见歌曲的介绍词写着“Gabrielle Roth & The Mirrors – On the Other Side of Here”。我听美人J说过Gabrielle Roth是5Rhythms的创办人,但我不知道她也写歌作曲演唱,噢耶,真是幸运呀!一不小心听到能打动我心,让郁积了好几天的眼泪唏哩哗啦淌下的歌曲,竟然和眼前的美人J有“渊源”。
一起来玩吧!
美人J深深地看了我一眼表示:“看来你和5Rhythms有点儿奇妙的连结,有兴趣进一步体验吗?今年6月份我会在乌布办场一日工作坊;8月份会在峇厘岛一个美如仙境的山区办一场五天的工作坊,主要带领者是我非常欣赏喜欢、专程从法国请来的老师,大部分学员需要特地从世界各地飞来参加,你就住在乌布,不用搭飞机,骑摩多就行,一起来玩吧?”我暗自在心中掂了掂费用,盘算着该怎么乾坤大挪移地蹦出些金子,以便“进一步了解能让我眼泪大颗淌的神奇舞蹈活动”时,美人J话题一转道:“那天听你在Bali Bohemia的舞蹈节为我朗读你写的《跳舞吗?》(因为内容写的是她,所以发表前要取得她愿意分享内文与照片的“口头同意书”),你可不可以用英文写一篇你对5Rhythms的‘初体验’啊?”
您知道的,我这射手座的特质就两个字“冲动”。这会儿,刚流了一早上的眼泪,精神状态恍惚的我一听到美人J的邀约,完全忘了自己的英文程度,想也不想地一口答应:“为了你,我愿意写首英文诗来表达我对5Rhythms的初体验!”
There is a place I know
Only I can go
And no one else can go there for me
But I forgot where the place is
But I forgot the essence of the place
But I forgot the way the path the direction
I want to recall
I want to remember
I want to go to return to be
there
I asked Mother Earth for help
Dance babe
Dance
Follow my crystal heart beat
Trumpet your feet
Hear my gentle soft whisper
Dance babe
Dance
So I dance
And I flow and flow and flow
Till I meet the bonfire
Dance babe
Dance
Jump into me
Hear my metallic rapping
Move your hip in regularity
Let my sharp focus fire tongue
Shape you
To what you truly want
Dance babe
Dance
So I dance
And I burn and burn and burn
Till I meet the cascada
Dance babe
Dance
Surender your mind to me
Drop faster than you can think
Throw yourself from the sky
Let me feel your weight
Bang
Rocky quivering spreading
Dance babe
Dance
So I dance
And I splash and splash and splash
Till I meet the breeze
Dance babe
Dance
Touch me with your finger tips
Arose spin tosses
Gallop with me to the sun the moon the star the galaxy
Nimble gracious joy swirling shimmer swifts
Dance babe
Dance
So I dance
And I up and up and up and up and up
Till I am exhausted
Ready exhausted
I still my body my mind my voice inside
Stillness move within me around me
So I dance in silence
And here
I found myself
My true self
This is the place I know
This is the place only I can go
This is the place no one else can go for me
And yes
I remember
I return
I am
