献给John Denver和他那首“Rocky mountain high”
[加拿大]8,那高高的落基山

来加拿大之前朋友问我你最想看什么?
我毫不犹豫的说去看那高高的落基山!
喜欢John Denver的歌,喜欢他的乡村民谣,那醇厚的乡谣风格,听来是一种浓浓的怀旧。尤其喜欢那首《高高的落基山》,Rocky mountain high……从那时起就对落基山脉充满着神往。
后来虽然去美国多次,在丹佛还登上了科罗拉多州境内的落基山脉,但总感觉要看落基山一定要在加拿大,因为那里更北更美!
几次去尼泊尔攀登喜马拉雅山南侧的山峰,站在雪山之颠,周围是绵延的雪峰,沉醉在那极度的幸福之中,但还是忘不了那埋藏在心底的落基山脉,觉得那里更纯更靓!
飞临温哥华的那天清晨透过飞机的舷窗我从空中看到了那绵延的落基山脉,山顶上覆盖着终年积雪,如此的美丽而圣洁!
r> 游走在落基山脉中已经有几天了,早上睁开眼睛看到的是窗前的落基山峰,奔驰在路上两边是高高的落基山脉,晚上夕阳西下抬眼望去看到的是那绵延的落基山轮廓。
被落基山脉所围绕,我感到很知足,这么近距离的接触,我懂得了什么是高大巍峨,什么叫气势磅礴,什么是雄伟壮观,什么又是山峦叠嶂,绵延不绝。。。。。。
这就是Rocky Mountains
我爱落基山,爱这高高的落基山!
朋友说落基山的四季各有不同的风采:
春天的落基山可以看到融雪之美,夏天的落基山可以看到冰河之容,秋天的落基山可以看到彩色之山,而冬天的落基山可以看到白银世界!

落基山脚下美丽的小镇班芙是一个飘在蓝天、高山、绿地和河流之间的大自然的美妙造物,因此被称为落基山脉的灵魂。只可惜我们仅在班芙吃了一顿晚餐,就从班芙小镇匆匆而过。
晚上在露易斯湖客栈休息,一晚的细雨使空气更加寒冷和潮湿。第二天早晨雨停了,我换上跑鞋去外面晨跑。周围是美丽的落基山脉,旁边是翠蓝的河水,脚下是伸向远方的蜿蜒的公路。
奔跑着,MP3播放着John Denver<Rocky Mountain High>,一口口呼吸着清晨的空气,落基山脉清晨的空气!
奔跑在落基山脉,我心潮澎湃!

——19971012日,也就是13年前的今天,丹佛驾驶的私人小型飞机在美国加州外海坠毁,享年53岁。没有人知道真正的失事原因是什么,是机械的故障?天气的影响?还是人为因素?但是,这一切如今都已不再重要了。因为他在歌声永远回荡在歌迷的心目,永难磨灭。——

Tips: 落基山脉又译作洛矶山脉,是美洲科迪勒拉山系北美的主干,由许多小山脉组成,被称为北美洲的脊骨,从阿拉斯加到墨西哥,南北纵贯4500多公里,广袤而缺乏植被。其名称源自印第安部落名。

[加拿大]8,那高高的落基山


He was born in the summer of his 27th year
Comin’ home to a place he’d never been before
He left yesterday behind him, you might say he was born again
You might say he found a key for every door
When he first came to the mountains his life was far away
On the road and hangin’ by a song
But the string’s already broken and he doesn’t really care
It keeps changin’ fast and it don’t last for long
But the Colorado Rocky Mountain high
I’ve seen it rainin’ fire in the sky
The shadow from the starlight is softer than a lullabye
Rocky Mountain high (high Colorado) Rocky Mountain high (high Colorado)
He climbed cathedral mountains, he saw silver clouds below
He saw everything as far as you can see
And they say he got crazy once, and he tried to touch the sun
And he lost a friend but kept his memory
Now he walks in quiet solitude the forests and the streams
Seeking grace in every step he takes
His sight has turned inside himself to try and understand
The serenity of a clear blue mountain lake
And the Colorado Rocky Mountain high
I’ve seen it rainin’ fire in the sky
You can talk to God and listen to the casual reply
Rocky Mountain high (high Colorado) Rocky Mountain high (high Colorado)
Now his life is full of wonder but his heart still knows some fear
Of a simple thing he cannot comprehend
Why they try to tear the mountains down to bring in a couple more
More people, more scars upon the land
And the Colorado Rocky Mountain high
I’ve seen it rainin’ fire in the sky
I know he’d be a poorer man if he never saw an eagle fly
Rocky Mountain high
It’s a Colorado Rocky Mountain high
I’ve seen it rainin’ fire in the sky
Friends around the campfire and everybody’s high
Rocky Mountain high (high Colorado) Rocky Mountain high (high Colorado)
Rocky Mountain high (high Colorado) Rocky Mountain high do de do
Words by John Denver, Music by John Denver and Mike Taylor
