回來台灣已經一週,因為等待女兒女婿和孫兒女從美國和日本飛來台灣會合,然後三代一起出遊,所以一直窩在中大校園裡的一方斗室。除了新聞網站的工作之外,花了很多時間和Music AI一起寫歌。
古稀老人寫情歌,覺得自在而快樂。
我寫成中文歌詞之後,就使用AI作曲,我可以選擇曲風、樂器、曲式、男唱或是女唱,所以嘗試各種組合,在多次嘗試之後,才會得到一首和歌詞速配的曲子和唱腔。
然後我會用Gemini嘗試把中文歌詞翻譯成適合譜曲的英文歌詞。Gimini會提供我三個版本,一個是貼近我中文版歌詞的版本,另外它還提供創意發揮的版本。我還是選擇與中文版貼近的版本,然後再和Gemini「討論」修改裡面的字句。最後再由Music AI譜成英文歌曲。
下面的「暮年之愛」(Love in the twilight years)用藍調音樂來表達,還不錯聽。
Lyrics:
暮年之愛
歲月留給我們紛飛的皺紋
像時間刻畫樹木的年輪
是滄桑的印記,也是愛的橫批
我們相偎相依,漫步在暮色裡
黃昏的絢爛琳瑯,我們品茗欣賞
落霞伴倦鳥歸鳴,我們駐足傾聽
年輕的跌宕起伏,我們的來時路
攜手坐看雲起時,我們憐惜情癡
歲月留給我們紛飛的皺紋
是滄桑的印記,也是愛的橫批
我們相偎相依,漫步在暮色裡
年輕的跌宕起伏,我們的來時路
攜手坐看雲起時,我們憐惜情癡
Love in the Twilight Years
Time has painted lines upon our faces, a delicate design
Like rings that grace an ancient tree, a story intertwined
These wrinkles tell of bygone days, of laughter and of tears
A testament to love’s embrace, through all the passing years
In twilight’s glow, we walk as one, beneath a sky ablaze
Sipping tea, we watch the day descend, in a tranquil haze
Birdsong fills the air, a serenade, as shadows start to grow
Hand in hand, we cherish every breath, in love’s gentle flow
Time has painted lines upon our face, a delicate design
These wrinkles tell of bygone days, of laughter and of tears
A testament to love’s embrace, through all the passing years
Birdsong fills the air, a serenade, as shadows start to grow
Hand in hand, we cherish every breath, in love’s gentle flow
下面的歌曲「愛是一條河」(Love is a River)是另外一首情歌,歡迎聽聽看,AI譜曲和歌唱,雖然中文咬字有時不清楚(有時還會唱幾句廣東話呢),但如果沒先說明,簡直聽不出來是人工智慧的作品。
Lyrics:
愛是一條河
愛是一條河,我們乘風破浪
迅雷不及掩耳、當仁不讓
當騎上浪頭,我們緊握著手
愛是日日夜夜 一生守候
愛是一條河,婉延悠悠
有時平靜,有時翻糾
在每一個轉折,我們共同面對
愛是一條河,順勢長流
愛是一條河,永無止息
愛與日俱增,直到歸去
有生之年,我們攜手同遊
愛是一條河,在我們的生命裡長流
愛是一條河,我們乘風破浪
迅雷不及掩耳、當仁不讓
當騎上浪頭,我們緊握著手
愛是日日夜夜 一生守候
Love is a River
Love is a river, flowin’ free,
Starts with a rush, can’t you see?
Young and restless, chasin’ the waves,
Crashin’ and churnin’, no time to behave.
Love’s a river, takin’ us higher,
Through the rapids, and the fire.
We ride the waves, we hold on tight,
Love’s a journey, day and night.
Love’s a river, wide and deep,
Flowin’ strong, secrets to keep.
Years go by, waters may slow,
But love runs deeper, as we both know.
Love’s a river, takin’ us higher,
Through the rapids, and the fire.
We ride the waves, we hold on tight,
Love’s a journey, day and night.
Love’s a river, bendin’ and turnin’,
Sometimes calm, sometimes burnin’.
Through every twist, we’ll find our way,
Love’s a river, come what may.
Love’s a river, forever flowin’,
‘Til our final breath, our love keep growin’.
Through life’s journey, hand in hand,
Love’s a river, forever in the land.
Love’s a river, takin’ us higher,
Through the rapids, and the fire.
We ride the waves, we hold on tight,
Love’s a journey, day and night.
