這是我們中午吃飯時最常聽的歌，有時候我會告訴孩子歌詞的意思，有時候就只是聽著歌。

今天我們吃飯時又聽這首歌，我告訴孩子，等你們長大以後，也許是五年，也許是十五年，

當你們再次聽到這首歌的時候，一定要想起老師和同學哦！

那個時候呀......我們關了燈，窩在一起吃飯呢.......

When I was young
當我年輕時
I’d listen to the radio
我常聽著收音機
Waiting for my favorite songs
等待我最喜愛的歌曲
When they played I’d sing along
播出時就跟著哼哼唱唱
It made me smile
那總是使我面露微笑

Those were such happy times
那真是一段快樂的時光
And not so long ago
就在不久以前
How I wondered where they’d gone
我很想知道它們到哪裡去了
But they’re back again
　但它們終究回來了
Just like a long lost friend
像個失去聯絡很久的朋友
All the songs I loved so well
每一首歌都是我的最愛

Every sha-la-la-la
每一句Sha-la-la-la
Every wo-o-wo-o
每一句Wo-o-wo-o
Still shines
依然動人
Every shing-a-ling-a-ling
每一句shing-a-ling-a-ling
That they’re starting to sing
它們就是這麼開始唱的
So fine
真是美極了……

When they get to the part where he’s breaking her heart
當唱到他傷了她的心那一段
It can really make me cry
真的會使我傷心落淚
Just like before
就像從前一樣

It’s yesterday once more
彷彿昨日重現

Looking back on how it was in years gone by
回顧歲月的流逝
And the good times that I had
以及我擁有的美好時光
Makes today seem rather sad
相較之下，如今多麼可悲
So much has changed
物事已非

It was songs of love that I would sing to then
那是我當時唱的情歌
And I’d memorize each word
我還記得每一句歌詞
Those old melodies
那些古老的旋律
Still sound so good to me
聽起來依然甜美
As they melt the years away
　把歲月都融化了



All my best memories
我最美好的回憶
Come back clearly to me
歷歷如繪的回到我面前
Some can even make me cry
有些甚至會使我哭泣
Just like before
就像從前一樣
It’s yesterday once more
彷彿昨日重現

這首歌發行於1973年5月

Yesterday once more

一切都會離你而去，一個人一輩子離不開你的，就是你腦海中的記憶。

而我們正在這麼珍貴的時光裡，更應該好好的愛身邊的人。

送給聽到這首歌的人........
