I swear. 我發(fā)誓，這是一個(gè)真實(shí)的故事。 [00:10.37]I studied piano for three years and learned to play one song poorly, which actually turned out to be an improvement over high school. 我學(xué)了三年鋼琴，但只會(huì)彈一首曲子，而且彈得很糟，這種情況到高中結(jié)束后才有了改善。 [00:22.01]Nobody was willing to tell me that I had no musical talent whatsoever. 沒人愿意告訴我我沒有音樂天賦。 [00:27.11]Finally, after three years, I was invited by my piano teacher, Mr. Dillman, to play in a recital. 結(jié)果，三年后，我的鋼琴老師迪爾曼先生邀請我在一個(gè)獨(dú)奏會(huì)上演奏。 [00:35.48]I was told recently that Mr. Dillman twitched visibly when my name was mentioned at his funeral. 最近我被告知，在迪爾曼先生的葬禮上，當(dāng)提及我的名字的時(shí)候，他明顯抽搐了。 [00:43.39]I can't answer for others, but I was very excited that I was at last going to play my song in front of an audience. 我不能達(dá)到別人的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，但當(dāng)時(shí)我非常興奮因?yàn)槲医K于有機(jī)會(huì)在觀眾面前彈奏我的歌曲了。 [00:51.28]The day of the recital arrived. That morning, I got the chicken pox and, tragically, I never got to play my song. 獨(dú)奏會(huì)的日子終于到來了，可是偏偏在那天早晨，我得了水痘，悲慘的是，我再未有機(jī)會(huì)演奏我的歌曲。 [01:00.18]But today I've taken the liberty of bringing with me a small keyboard and, 但是今天我擅自帶了一個(gè)小鍵盤， [01:04.55]with your permission, I will finally get to play my song in front of an audience. 如果你們允許的話，我最終將能在觀眾面前演奏我的歌曲。 [01:10.13]I swear to you (that) this is the song that I learned to play after three years — the only song I know how to play on the piano. 我向你們發(fā)誓這是一首我學(xué)了三年的歌曲，是我唯一能彈奏的一首鋼琴曲。 [01:20.21]I think you will see that the lesson is patience.
