　　译文导读：Has LangLang gone mad?

Lang Lang said he chose 'My Motherland' for a White House dinner because of its beauty. But U.S. conservatives and some mainland Chinese say the piece, known from a 1956 anti-American film, was a slap.
朗朗说他在白宫的国宴选择我的祖国是因为它曲调优美。但是美国的保守派和一些大陆的天朝人认为这首在1956年反美的电影中出现的曲子对美国人来说是一记响亮的耳光。
Chinese-born pianist Lang Lang denied Monday that he sought to insult the United States with the choice of a song he played at a White House state dinner last week, despite the claims of some mainland Chinese and conservatives in the U.S.
天朝出生的钢琴家郎朗在星期一否认在上周白宫国宴时选择这首乐曲是想侮辱美国，尽管这引起了一些大陆天朝人及美国保守派的异议。
Lang Lang, the 28-year-old virtuoso who performed at a dinner for Chinese President Hu Jintao on Wednesday, said he played "My Motherland" not because of its anti-American associations but entirely "for the beauty of its melody."
郎朗这位在礼拜三为天朝主席演奏的钢琴大师，说他演奏我的祖国不是为了反美而是因为曲调优美。

The piece was featured in a 1956 Chinese movie about soldiers in the Korean War that expresses strong anti-American sentiments. The film tells the story of the Battle of Triangle Hill, in which Chinese troops suffer hardship, but ultimately triumph over their American adversaries.
这首乐曲是在1956年反映朝鲜战争的天朝电影，表达了强烈的反美情绪。这部电影叙述了天朝军队在上甘岭战役经历巨大困难，但是最后战胜了美国军队。

American conservatives and some mainland Chinese, in a rare convergence of views, have been asserting online that the pianist intended to insult the United States.
一些大陆天朝人及美国保守派罕见的意见一致，在网上断言这位钢琴家是意图侮辱美国。
Lang Lang, who lives in both the U.S. and China, issued a statement saying: "I selected this song because it has been a favorite of mine since I was a child. It was selected for no other reason but for the beauty of its melody."
郎朗，同时生活在美国和天朝，发表了声明：我选择这首歌曲是因为从小它就是我的最爱之一。只是因为优美的旋律而选择，不为其他。
He said his goal was to "bridge cultures together through the beauty and inspiration of music … America and China are my two homes. I am most grateful to the United States for providing me with such wonderful opportunities, both in my musical studies and for furthering my career."
他说“他的目标是通过音乐的灵性及美丽建立桥梁…美国和天朝都是我的家，我对于美国非常感谢，因为它为我在音乐学习和之后的职业发展提供了最棒的机遇。”
Lang Lang will be in Southern California on Tuesday, performing with the Pacific Symphony in Costa Mesa.
郎朗将会在礼拜二出现在南加州，科斯塔梅萨与太平洋交响乐团共同表演。
Tommy Vietor, a White House spokesman, said the song is "widely known and popular in China for its melody. Lang Lang played the song without lyrics or reference to any political theme .... Any suggestion that this was an insult to the United States is just flat wrong."
白宫发言人汤米维特说这是一首由于优美曲调而在天朝广为传唱的歌曲。郎朗表演是没有歌词或者其他政治主体的联系。任何暗示这是意图侮辱美国的表示都是错误的。
One Chinese blogger posted an item on the Sina news portal saying that it was "deeply meaningful to play this in the United States. But I don't know if the Americans can understand. Ha ha."
一位天朝博友在新浪门户上发言：在美国演奏这首曲子是别有深意的。但我不知道美国人是否理解。Haha.

Obviously a not so subtle insult to the US.  He takes our money for concerts and recordings, and then insults our President at the White House.  As others have suggested, if the opposite occured on Chinese soil, the musician would have been escorted out of the country, and banned for life.
Such a display of disrespect makes me think it's time to boycott Lang Lang.  I guess his beautiful music sounds like tin on my ears.
这是一个不怎么掩饰的对美国的侮辱。他在音乐会音像制品上赚我们的钱，然后在白宫侮辱我们的总统。 就像其他人所说，在这天朝的土壤上出现异端的话，这位音乐家将会被‘请出国’，并终身将其禁止。这样无礼的表演让我认为应该制抵郎朗。他优美的音乐在我听来就是垃圾。

"But U.S. conservatives and some mainland Chinese say the piece, known from a 1956 anti-American film, was a slap."
Honestly, what else could it really have been? Fortunately for Lang Lang, he performed his obscenity on U.S. soil because I'm sure if it were an American in China that presumably insulted the Communist Government, that person would be in chains!
“但是美国的保守派和一些大陆的天朝人认为这首在1956年反美的电影中出现的曲子对美国人来说是一记响亮的耳光。”
老实说，这又能怎样？对郎朗来说，幸运的是他在美国的土地上表演这种猥亵行为，因为我肯定如果是一个美国人在天朝表演侮辱天朝的乐曲，那么那家伙应该已经在蹲牢房了。

So much hystery online about “My Motherland’ played by Lang Lang in White House is found. But you’ll find only few lines of lyric which might hurt insecure and paranoid Americans feeling,

“If friends are here, there is fine wine
if the jackal comes
What greets it is the hunting rifle”.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M...

But if Americans chooses to be a jackel instead of friends, who could stop them and what they could expect the Chinese to do?

Easy, Americans. You are changing daily into an unmature girl. The weakness comes from within, not a from a boy musician. Its only a song form an old 1950’s film most of Chinese even don’t know the lyric of. If US national anthem were played, you’d sure feel great. But would Englishmen’d feel hurt too? You guys’ve already reminded me of witch hunting Cultural Revolution, if not McCarthy time.

Meanwhile, If America is best at snubbing its greatest lender by sending carriers at his door using lender’s money, why cannot China be best at snubbing the ignorant host. From now on, you guys should learn, though hard, to get used to treating the temporary Number Two equally,
在网上看到了那么多关于朗朗在白宫弹‘我的祖国’的报道。但是你只会在歌词中的一小部分发现会伤害到没安全感且多疑的美国人的感情。

“朋友来了有好酒
若是那豺狼来了
迎接它的有猎枪”

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M...

但是如果米国人选择做豺狼而不是朋友，谁能阻止他们，他们又凭什么期待天朝做什么？

很简单，米国人。你们的弱点不来自于一个男孩音乐家而来自于你们的内在。这只是一首来自1950年代电影，且大多数和中国人不清楚歌词的乐曲。如果米国国歌演奏了，你们一定自我感觉很棒。那么英国人会不会也受到伤害？你们让我想起政治迫害，如果这不是麦凯恩的时期。

同时，如果米国最擅长冷落它最大的债主通过用债主的钱送飞机到它的门口，为什么中国不能冷落无知愚昧的东道主。从现在起，你们也要努力学习习惯公平对待世界第二。

Wow. You are one arrogant dimwit.
The only reason why your country is prospering is because you people steal every ounce of technology you don't have the brains to invent yourselves and because you provide the world with SLAVE LABOR; China's only real contribution to the world has been exporting a failed political system and Kung Pao Chicken.
You also have the boot of an incredibly dictatorial regime on your faces; you're nothing but Winston Smith, who had no choice but to love his tormentor while awaiting execution.
I have news for you: The US will blow you all to hell before it ever pays back your "loans." You're just too stupid and arrogant to realize that!
Ni Hao!
哦，你们是自大的傻瓜
你们国家繁荣的唯一理由是因为你们人民偷取他国的技术，你们没有脑子自己发明。而且也是因为你们为世界提供奴隶劳动力。天朝对于世界的真正贡献是向外输出失败的政治系统及宫保鸡丁。
你们非凡的独裁统治也广受批评，你们什么都不是,只是群等待在死刑前不得不去选择去爱那个折磨着自己的人的温斯顿-史密斯罢了
我有消息要告诉你们：美国会让你们都见鬼去在还清‘国债’之前。你们太愚蠢也太高傲以致无法认清这些！

Relax, America. You are strong and your primary source of weakness comes from within, not a musician who grew up in China
在一个大多数是天朝出生的在米国大学教书的中国人的博客里，郎朗的行为已经被讨论了，远早于WSJ之前。共同的观点是美国人可能会受伤。
但是等一下，有多少米国人-普通人，不是那些花很多时间讨论中美关系的人-会真的关心在那天在白宫演奏什么曲子，由谁来演奏？

天朝出生的钢琴家郎朗在星期一否认在上周白宫国宴时选择这首乐曲是想侮辱美国，尽管这引起了一些大陆天朝人及美国保守派的异议。
Lang Lang, the 28-year-old virtuoso who performed at a dinner for Chinese President Hu Jintao on Wednesday, said he played "My Motherland" not because of its anti-American associations but entirely "for the beauty of its melody."
郎朗这位在礼拜三为天朝主席演奏的钢琴大师，说他演奏我的祖国不是为了反美而是因为曲调优美。

The piece was featured in a 1956 Chinese movie about soldiers in the Korean War that expresses strong anti-American sentiments. The film tells the story of the Battle of Triangle Hill, in which Chinese troops suffer hardship, but ultimately triumph over their American adversaries.
这首乐曲是在1956年反映朝鲜战争的天朝电影，表达了强烈的反美情绪。这部电影叙述了天朝军队在上甘岭战役经历巨大困难，但是最后战胜了美国军队。

American conservatives and some mainland Chinese, in a rare convergence of views, have been asserting online that the pianist intended to insult the United States.
一些大陆天朝人及美国保守派罕见的意见一致，在网上断言这位钢琴家是意图侮辱美国。

I have news for you: The US will blow you all to hell before it ever pays back your "loans." You're just too stupid and arrogant to realize that!
Ni Hao!
哦，你们是自大的傻瓜
你们国家繁荣的唯一理由是因为你们人民偷取他国的技术，你们没有脑子自己发明。而且也是因为你们为世界提供奴隶劳动力。天朝对于世界的真正贡献是向外输出失败的政治系统及宫保鸡丁。
你们非凡的独裁统治也广受批评，你们什么都不是,只是群等待在死刑前不得不去选择去爱那个折磨着自己的人的温斯顿-史密斯罢了
我有消息要告诉你们：美国会让你们都见鬼去在还清‘国债’之前。你们太愚蠢也太高傲以致无法认清这些！
你好！


评论太少了，贴一点来自WSJ的评论。是一样的主题，谢谢提供的同学～

Hard to believe it was an accident.
what’s the probability picking up that song from millions by chance?
无法相信这是一个意外事件。
从上百万首歌中选择这一首的概率是多少？

The song is not overtly anti-american in lyrics. In fact you can not find the word US or America in the lyrics. But its anti-American message is well understood by anyone in China who knows about the historical and cinematic context of the song. The song is an emoticon, a passcode or an wink in Chinese nonverbal cummunication. The meaning is never misunderstood by ‘us’ (Chinese) but hardly noticeable to ‘them’ (non-Chninese, especially Americans, the unidentified ‘beasts’ in the song.
这首歌在歌词上并不是百分百反美的。事实上你都找不到米国这个词在歌词里。但是其内在的反美信息却隐藏在其中，任何一个中国人都知道这段历史和这部电影。在中国的非语言沟通中，歌曲是一种情感，一种密码或者说是一种暗号的方式。这种意义不会被我们（中国人）所误解，但却被他们（非中国人，特别是美国人，在歌曲中身份未明的野兽）所忽视

To the editiors: Please take a look at this interview, http://www.tudou.com/programs/view/0z_YeRY7-TM/ (Chinese). Lang Lang mentions, briefly but explicitly, that he chose the song out of Chinese pride.
至编者：请看这一段访问。
http://www.tudou.com/programs/view/0z_YeRY7-TM/ (中文)。郎朗简短而明确提到选择这首乐曲是出于对中国的自豪（译者：这个正面反面理解都可以）

I find it hard to believe that as a musician who may have done this song several times and a Chinese who knows the history of this song, he didn’t do this intentionally.
我很难相信作为一个经常弹奏这首曲子的音乐家，并作为一个知道这段历史的中国人，他会是无意中这么做的。

In another blog, which attacts maily China-born Chinese now teaching in American universities, Lang Lang’s choice of music got a commentary, long before the WSJ picked it up. The shared concern is that attentive Americans may get hurt.
But, wait. How many Americans — the average folks, not the ones who spends time talking their heads off about US-China relations — actually paid a dime of attention to whatever music was played in the White House on that day and whoever the musician was?
Relax, America. You are strong and your primary source of weakness comes from within, not a musician who grew up in China
在一个大多数是天朝出生的在米国大学教书的中国人的博客里，郎朗的行为已经被讨论了，远早于WSJ之前。共同的观点是美国人可能会受伤。
但是等一下，有多少米国人-普通人，不是那些花很多时间讨论中美关系的人-会真的关心在那天在白宫演奏什么曲子，由谁来演奏？
放松一下，米国。你是强大的而你的弱点来源于你的内在，不是一个在天朝长大的钢琴家。

Admit it or not, Lang Lang was just a nobody before he came to the US. Now he has become an anti-America hero highly praised by the Chinese nationalists. This is not the first time that Lang Lang plays such pro-China anti-US musics. He did so in the 2008 Beijing Olympics. He did so in the Chinese New Year gaga.
不管你同不同意，郎朗在来米国之前只是一个无足轻重的人。现在它成为反米英雄被中国民族主义者称赞。这不是第一次郎朗演奏支持中国且反米的乐曲。他在奥运和春节晚会上都弹奏过。

Judging from the fact that he has devoted so much time to perfect his piano skill and the fact he came to US to study at a young age, I dont believe it is possible that Langlang knows every Chinese movie, particularly the oldies. In addition, why would anyone intentionally hurt his audience’s feelings if he knew before hand?
鉴于他花了那么多时间提高自己的技能并在非常年轻的时候来米国，我不相信郎朗会知道每一部中国电影，特别是老电影。而且，既然他事先知道，为什么他要故意伤害他的听众的感情

Don’t blame Lang Lang: a musician is not a politician.
It is very nice to hear music from all countries played on the piano.
Lang Lang makes it possible for the rest of us to enjoy the art of music.
不要责怪郎朗：一个音乐家而不是政治家。
能够听到世界各地弹奏钢琴的声音非常好。
郎朗让我们这些人都能够享受音乐。
