The Place Where Lost Things Go

The Place Where Lost Things Go ^[1]  ，可以譯作《失落之鄉》。這首歌曲出自音樂童話劇 Mary Poppins Returns （歡樂滿人間 2）（也譯作《瑪麗波平斯回來了》）。這首音樂分明的節奏和特點，旋律深入人心，Emily Blunt更是用優美的嗓音和表現力驚豔了大家。 ^[2] 

迪士尼公司計劃為1964年的歌舞片《歡樂滿人間》（Mary Poppins）籌拍續集，續集的導演是憑藉《芝加哥》獲得奧斯卡最佳影片獎的羅伯·馬歇爾（Rob Marshall）。

《歡樂滿人間》的續集劇本由《尋找夢幻島》、《少年派的奇幻漂流》編劇大衞·馬吉（David Magee ）創作，而故事就設定在1964年電影的20年後，主角依然是瑪麗·波平斯和班克斯一家。

作為一部歌舞片，《歡樂滿人間2》的音樂創作也是重中之重，為此羅伯·馬歇爾專門找到了《髮膠》（Hairspray）的音樂創作人Marc Shaiman和 Scott Wittman，他們倆將為這部續集打造原創歌曲和全新的配樂 ^[3]  。

（TheGoodLeaf翻譯） ^[2] 

Do you ever lie

Awake at night

你是否常常徹夜苦想

Just between the dark

And the morning light

從沉沉暗夜直等到晨光

Searching for the things

You used to know

追憶你曾熟知的事物

Looking for the place

Where the lost things go

找不到它們失落的地方

Do you ever dream

Or reminisce

你是否曾在夢中悵惘

Wondering where to find

What you truly miss

不知哪裏去找你日夜所想

Well maybe all those things

That you love so

也許那些你遺失的摯愛

Are waiting in the place

Where the lost things go

正靜靜等候在那失落之鄉

Memories you've shed

Gone for good you feared

那零落的回憶唯恐一去不返

They're all around you still

Though they've disappeared

無影無蹤卻仍環繞身旁

Nothing's really left

Or lost without a trace

未曾真正離開此去蹤跡難找

Nothing's gone forever

Only out of place

從未消失只是放錯了地方

So maybe now the dish

And my best spoon

我曾經珍愛的碗和勺

Are playing hide and seek

Just behind the moon

正在月亮背後嬉戲打鬧

Waiting there until

It's time to show

等待與我重聚那一刻

Spring is like that now

Far beneath the snow

春天也一樣被雪覆蓋上

Hiding in the place

Where the lost things go

正靜靜藏在那失落之鄉

Time to close your eyes

So sleep can come around

閉上你雙眼讓沉睡包圍你

For when you dream you'll find

All that's lost is found

你會失而復得就在你夢鄉

Maybe on the moon

Or maybe somewhere new

也許在月亮上或是在新世界

Maybe all you're missing lives inside of you

或許你遺失的美好就在你身上

So when you need her touch

And loving gaze

當你想念她愛的眼光

Gone but not forgotten

Is the perfect phrase

隨風而逝卻從未被遺忘

Smiling from a star

That she makes glow

從天空微笑將星星點亮

Trust she's always there

Watching as you grow

相信她在那兒看着你成長

Find her in the place

Where the lost things go

永遠守護在那失落之鄉 ^[2]
