Harry Belafonte,人称“卡利普索歌曲之王”,是最成功的美籍非裔音乐明星之一,其吸收了民谣、爵士和世界打击节奏音乐的精髓,在主流音乐方面取得了成功,其受到欢迎的程度在黑人民权运动之前绝无仅有,而且他也是民权运动的先锋,2000年获得格莱美终身成就奖。
(卡利普索. calypso. 千里達的一種民歌,也在加勒比群島的東、南部演唱,其歌詞常以詼諧的語調諷刺當地的政治、社會事件。)




Jamaica Farewell - Harry Belafonte



Down the bay where the nights are gay
And the sun shines daily on the mountain top
I took a trip on a sailing ship
And when I reached Jamaica I made a stop

But I'm sad to say I'm on my way
Won't be back for many a day
My heart is down, my head is turning around
I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town

Down the market you can hear
Ladies cry out while on their heads they bear
`Akey' rice, salt fish are nice
And the rum is fine any time of year

Sounds of laughter everywhere
And the dancing girls sway to and fro
I must declare my heart is there
Though I've been from Maine to Mexico


喜歡的把我带走
