这位四川宣汉人一生最爱搜集整理民歌和创作民歌。其中最出名的民歌有《苏二姐》和《康定情歌》。当年李依 若在成都读大学时与一个康定的、姓李的女子相爱，曾经结伴到康定跑马山玩耍，根据湘西“溜溜调”编了一首《跑马歌》，唱给“李家溜溜的大姐”听，以示求 爱。但这段恋情却遭到了家人的反对，继母魏氏甚至断绝了李依若的学费和生活费，后来还全靠他的义父和李姑娘的相助，才完成了大学学业。可惜的是，这段爱情 最终受各种思想的束缚，没得坚持到最后，徒留一首情歌，唱尽当年情。

现在让我们试着将这首歌用另一种语言唱出，让当年的热情，回忆出上个世纪的爱情。

二、翻译问题分析及演唱技巧解说

第一句的译文音节比原文多了两个，Over the 要对应着“跑马”唱，Hill of要对应着“溜溜的”唱，“山上”原唱拖得很长，所以将Running Horses（4个音节）对应着“山上”唱没有问题。“一朵溜溜的云哟”译成“有一朵美丽的云”（there is a beautiful cloud），音节数相同。

第二句的译文音节与原文相同，语义也基本相同。

第三句比较难译，采用了意译的方法。There is a对应着“月亮”唱，beautiful moon对应着“弯弯”唱，一个“弯”对一个英文词即可。Over the Town of Kangding正好是7个音节，对应着“康定溜溜的城哟”唱，节拍一致。

第四句的“大姐”不能直译，意译成“姑娘”即可。There’s a girl in the对应着“李家溜溜的”唱，Li 对应着“大”唱，唱family时要快，对应着“姐”唱。“人才溜溜的好哟”意译为 she is really beautiful，音节数相同，但应该将really对应着“溜溜的”唱，而beautiful则对应着“好哟”唱。

第五句的“大哥”意译成“男人”即可。前半句的演唱方式与第四句相同。“看上溜溜的她哟”意译为he is in love with her，唱in时稍微拉长一点，对应着“溜溜”唱，love对应着“的”唱，with her对应着“她哟”唱。

第六句的“月亮弯弯”与第三句的处理方法不一样，为了上下文一致，我们将其意译为“美丽的月亮都能看出”（他爱上了那位姑娘），即The beautiful moon can see he is in love with her，由于“月亮弯弯”拖得很长，The beautiful 可以对着“月亮”唱，moon对着第一个“弯”，can see对着第二个“弯”唱。

第七句“一来溜溜地看上，人才溜溜地好哟”也用意译更好。音节比原文少了一个，可将First be-对应着“一来”唱，first的/t/一定要省掉，cause the对应着“溜溜地”唱，girl is对应着“看上”唱。虽然really very beautiful（七个音节）与原文音节数相同，但是演唱时要将very（两个音节）对应着“溜溜地”唱，而把beautiful（三个音节）对应着 “好哟”唱。

第八句意译为“第二是因为那姑娘很会做家务活”。音节比原文少了一个，可将Second对着“二来”唱，将because the对着“溜溜地”唱，girl is对着“看上”唱，good at对着“溜溜的”唱，housework对着“家哟”唱。请注意: second的/d/一定要省掉，good at一定要连读, at的/t/也不要发了，接着唱housework就行了。

第九句的翻译策略与第六句相同。演唱时将she’s very对应着“会当”唱，good at 要连读，对着“溜溜的”唱，good要拖长一点儿。

第十句意译为I can love any of the girls in the world，但为了节拍一致，结构改成Of all the girls in the world, I can love any I like。加了all，这样语法说得通，音节数相同，但是须将Of all the对应着“世间”唱，girls要拉长，对着“溜溜的”唱，将in the world对应着“女子”唱。后半句7个音节对应着原文7个音节唱即可。

第十一句的翻译策略和演唱方式与上句基本相同。只是“男子”被译为young men，对应着“溜溜的”唱即可。

第十二句的翻译策略与第六和第九句相同。
