赞美上帝
昨天无意间听到这首歌。Jeff_Buckley的版本。仔细听的话，一开始的叹气声让我有种悸动。我也不明白为何会这样。昨晚，是它伴我入眠。哈里路亚。假如没听过圣经里的故事的话，可能会很难理解对歌词里想要表达的意境吧？上网找了下歌词的意思。
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
David，大卫，牧羊人出身，但容貌俊美，英勇善战，能赋能歌，战胜巨人哥利亚，被上帝选为以色列的国王。在大卫当国王的时候，一日傍晚，在阳台闲逛时偶然发现一貌美女子正在沐浴，娇媚性感的曲线加上柔和迷人的月光将大卫彻底吸引住。之后，大卫便派人四处打听此女子，想要知道她的芳名。原来，这个迷人的女子名叫 Bethsheba，是大卫的一位部将Uriah的妻子。大卫忍受不住占有Bethsheba的欲望，终于让人将Bethsheba接入宫中，与其同房。不久，Bethsheba 怀上了大卫的孩子，大卫恐慌万分，急忙召回远在前线的Uriah，借口让其休整一下，意图让Uriah回到家中与妻子同房以掩盖Bethsheba肚中孩子的亲缘归属。但是，Uriah是一位忠于职守为国尽忠的勇士，他对大卫说：“国家处于危机，我怎有心思回家与妻子相欢，溺于安享。”Uriah要求大卫将自己重新派回到战场上。大卫此时便顺水推舟，并写成密信一封，让Uriah携信到大将军约亚那里；信中大卫指示约亚将Uriah派往最为危险的战场。于是，Uriah就在大卫的密谋和意愿下战死沙场，而大卫则将Bethsheba迎进自己的后宫，名正言顺的占有了Bethsheba。
Now I've heard there was a secret chord
That David played, and it pleased the Lord
But you don't really care for music, do you?
然而，占有Bethsheba的大卫并不快乐，他白天对着众人强颜欢笑，夜晚就成为自己罪过的奴隶，受尽折磨。大卫认识到自己的罪行，写下五十一篇忏悔书，歌与上帝，祈求宽恕。。
歌曲中的另一个故事
She tied you To a kitchen chair
She broke your throne
and she cut your hair
以色列在被非力士人统治的时候，族中有个大力士，名叫Samson，上帝赐予他空手撕裂雄狮的神力，这使得非力士统治者颇为惧怕，但是，Samson有个弱点：上帝与其约定——不得剪发，如是，则神力尽失。Samson爱上了一位非力士族的姑娘，名叫Delilah。非力士统治者赐予Delilah许多钱财，命令她与Samson相好并套出他为何力大无穷的秘密。Samson在Delilah的三次诱惑下以编造的故事将其蒙混，但是最后Samson还是将自己的秘密告诉的Delilah。一日，Delilah趁安抚参孙熟睡于自己的膝上时，让人将Samson的头发剪掉了。Samson醒来，发现自己的头发被剪，神力也一并消失了。可怜的Samson在爱情的迷惑下，违背了与神定下的誓言，从一个英勇的大力士变成了一个人人欺辱的瞎子。
歌词原文。
i heard there was a secret chord
that david played and it pleased the lord
but you don't really care for music, do you
well it goes like this the fourth, the fifth
the minor fall and the major lift
the baffled king composing hallelujah
hallelujah...
well your faith was strong but you needed proof
you saw her bathing on the roof
her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
she tied you to her kitchen chair
she broke your throne and she cut your hair
and from your lips she drew the hallelujah
hallelujah...
baby i've been here before
i've seen this room and i've walked this floor
i used to live alone before i knew you
i've seen your flag on the marble arch
but love is not a victory march
it's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah
hallelujah...
well there was a time when you let me know
what's really going on below
but now you never show that to me do you
but remember when i moved in you
and the holy dove was moving too
and every breath we drew was hallelujah
well, maybe there's a god above
but all i've ever learned from love
was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you
it's not a cry that you hear at night
it's not somebody who's seen the light
it's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah
hallelujah...
故事里的david， 为了Bethsheba
背叛了自己的部下
也背弃了对主的信仰
故事里的samson，为了Delilah
撕毁了与主的契约
也撕毁了自己的荣誉
他们都为爱迷失了自己
哈里路亚 意即 赞美上帝
