Feeling Good - Nina Simone

Feeling Good - Nina Simone
( Written by Anthony Newley and Leslie Bricusse )

Birds flying high, you know how I feel

飛鳥傲翔, 此時我的感受, 你懂的

Sun in the sky, you know how I feel

艷陽高掛, 此時我的感受, 你懂的

Breeze drifting on by, you know how I feel

微風輕拂, 此時我的感受, 你懂的

It's a new dawn, it's a new day, it's a new life for me

這是隔天的晨曦, 這是嶄新的一天, 這是我的重生

Yeah, it's a new dawn, it's a new day, it's a new life for me, ooooooooh...

沒錯,  這是隔天的晨曦, 這是嶄新的一天, 這是我的重生, 噢...

And I'm feeling good

而我感到極好

Fish in the sea, you know how I feel

魚悠游於海, 此時我的感受, 你懂的

River runnin' free, you know how I feel

河自由流淌, 此時我的感受, 你懂的

Blossom on the tree, you know how I feel

花盛放於枝椏, 此時我的感受, 你懂的

It's a new dawn, it's a new day, it's a new life for me

這是隔天的晨曦, 這是嶄新的一天, 這是我的重生

And I'm feelin' good

而我感到極好

Dragonfly out in the sun, you know what I mean, don't you know

蜻蜓在旭日下滑翔, 你懂我的意思, 難道不是嗎

Butterflies all havin' fun, you know what I mean

蝴蝶戲耍花叢, 你懂我的意思

Sleep in peace when day is done, that's what I mean

當一天結束, 便安寧憇睡, 這就是我的意思

And this old world is a new world and a bold world for me

這種原始的美好, 對我來說是一個嶄新而自由的世界

Stars when you shine, you know how I feel

你的笑容燦爛得如星般閃耀, 此時我的感受, 你懂的

Scent of the pine, you know how I feel

松樹香氣芬芳, 此時我的感受, 你懂的

Yeah, freedom is mine, and I know how I feel

對呀, 我擁有自由, 而且感到自由

It's a new dawn, it's a new day, it's a new life for me

這是隔天的晨曦, 這是嶄新的一天, 這是我的重生

And I'm feeling good

我感到極好

　　This song is amazing! Just can't stop it when i heard it at the first time. The melody, the rhythm, the lyrics, the voice, everything are attractive! The original one is sung by Cy Grant but it is lost. This is a version by Cy Grant with pianist Bill Le Sage :

　　It is no doubt that I love Nina's version more. Cy's one is soft, the score is relax, his voice was like singing in opera. That's two different feeling. For me, I like strong rhythmical musics more.

　　I know this songs because of this boy -- Ronan Parke. He performed it on a talent show :

　　Such a handsome boy with a clear voice. He grows up now and have a voice mutation but still sings beautiful :
