Vaughan Williams 蘇格蘭民謠 這首離情依依的蘇格蘭民謠，由作曲家佛漢‧威廉士（R.Vaughan Williams, 1872 - 1958）編寫為無伴奏的混聲四部合唱曲。佛漢‧威廉士是英國交響曲、室內樂、歌劇、合唱音樂和電影配樂作曲家，亦是英國民歌的採集者。全曲描寫著即將遠行的情人與少女，在羅莽湖畔道別的情景，音樂以兩個不同動機的樂段組合而成：前段採用平穩和緩的速度，敘述著緻麗的湖光山色；後段以附點節奏的進行曲風，與前段形成明顯的情感對比，呈現必須出發的決心、且無法再與摯愛相見的痛苦。 By yon bonny banks and by yon bonny braes, where the sun shines bright on Loch Lomond, where me and my true love were ever wont to gae, on the bonnie banks of Loch Lomond. O you'll take the high road and I'll take the low road, and I'll be in Scotland afore ye, but me and my true love will never meet again; on the bonny banks of Loch Lomond. T'was there that we parted in yon shady glen, On the steep side of Loch Lomond, where deep in purple hue the Highland hills we view, and the moon coming out in the gloaming. the wee birdies sing and the wild flowrs spring, and in sunshine the waters are sleeping, But the broken heart it kens nae seco...    less
