Kobe退役了,亲笔写了名为"Dear Basketball"的退役信 (retirement letter)。今天我们一起聆听这封简单、真挚的信。像篮球大神致敬,也学习最贴切、动人的英文情感表达方式。

Dear Basketball Part I

Dear Basketball,

From the moment

I started rolling my dad's tube socks

And shooting imaginary

Game-winning shots

In the Great Western Forum

I knew one thing was real:

I fell in love with you.

Tube socks: 球袜

Shooting imaginary shots: 幻想自己投篮

The Great Western Forum: 洛杉矶体育场

To fall in love with someone: 爱上一个人、坠入爱河

Dear Basketball Part II

A love so deep I gave you my all —

From my mind & body

To my spirit & soul.

As a six-year-old boy

Deeply in love with you

I never saw the end of the tunnel.

I only saw myself

Running out of one.

I gave you my all: 付出我所有

Mind and body: 思想、身体

Spirit and soul: 心灵、灵魂

Deeply in love with you: 深深爱着你

The end of the tunnel: 道路的尽头

Dear Basketball Part III

And so I ran.

I ran up and down every court

After every loose ball for you.

You asked for my hustle

I gave you my heart

Because it came with so much more.

I played through the sweat and hurt

Not because challenge called me

But because YOU called me.

I did everything for YOU

Because that's what you do

When someone makes you feel as

Alive as you've made me feel.

Court: 球场

Hustle: 努力、拼命

Sweat: 汗水

Hurt: 伤痛、伤病

Challenge called me: 挑战在召唤我

Calling (noun): 召唤

To feel alive: 有存在感

Dear Basketball Part IV

You gave a six-year-old boy his Laker dream

And I'll always love you for it.

But I can't love you obsessively for much longer.

This season is all I have left to give.

My heart can take the pounding

My mind can handle the grind

But my body knows it's time to say goodbye.

And that's OK.

I'm ready to let you go.

I want you to know now

So we both can savor every moment we have left together.

The good and the bad.

We have given each other

All that we have.

Obsessively: 走火入魔般的

Season: 赛季

Can take/handle something: 可以承受

Pouding: 重击

Grind: 研磨、锤炼

To let you go: 放手让你走

Savor: 回味

Dear Basketball Part V

And we both know, no matter what I do next

I'll always be that kid

With the rolled up socks

Garbage can in the corner

:05 seconds on the clock

Ball in my hands.

5 … 4 … 3 … 2 … 1

Love you always,

Kobe

No matter...: 不管怎么样、无论如何

Rolled up socks: 拉起的球袜

Garbage can in the corner: 角落的垃圾桶

Ball in my hands: 手里的篮球

On the clock: 时钟
