Soul man – Người tình cảm

500 Greatest Songs of All Times

Chào các bạn,

Soul man là bài hát được Isaac Hayes và David Porte sáng tác năm 1967 và được Samuel “Sam” Moore và David “Dave” Prater trình diễn.

Bài hát đứng thứ 463 trong danh sách 500 Bài hát hay nhất trong mọi thời đại cùa báo nhạc Rolling Stone.

Soul là linh hồn.  Nhạc của người nô lệ da đen ngày xưa gọi là soul music, là các bài hát đến từ sâu thẳm trong tâm hồn của người nô lệ buồn thảm.  Soul là biểu tượng của, và đôi khi dùng đồng nghĩa với, da đen.

Isaac Hayes và David Porte soạn bài hát này trong thời Phong trào Dân quyền (Civil Rights Movement) của người da đen tranh đấu cho quyền bình đẳng ở Mỹ trong thâp niên 1960.  Tháng 7/1967, trong một lần xem bản tin trên TV về cuộc nổi loạn bạo động của người da đen ở tiểu bang Michigan, Isaac Hayes nhận thấy những tiệm của người da đen có viết chữ “soul” trên cửa tiệm thì không bị đập phá.  Điều này cho Isaac Hayes cảm hứng để lấy ý cho bài hát này, về một người da đen tự hào và hãnh diện về chính mình.

Soul man có nghĩa là người của nhạc soul, người da đen, hay người có tâm hồn sâu thẳm.  Trong bài dịch dưới đây, chúng ta tạm dùng từ “người tình cảm” để dịch từ “soul man”, ghi nhớ rằng “soul man” có nhiều nghĩa như trên.

Mời các bạn cùng nghe nhé.

Chúc các bạn một ngày tốt lành. Continue reading Soul man – Người tình cảm
