曲谱简介：

Watermark Watermark is a song by the Irish musician Enya. And the song was included in the album of the same name. The album was released on 19 September 1988 in the United Kingdom and 10 January 1989 in the United States. Featuring her first major hit, "Orinoco Flow", Watermark was Enyas breakthrough album release, and is considered a seminal example of new-age music, although Enya herself does not consider her work to be of that genre. The Lyrics of Watermark: Watermark (With Translation) Cursum Perficio Cursum perficio. I am making an end to my course. Verbum sapienti: A word to the wise: quo plus habent, the more [people] have eo plus cupiunt. the more they want. Post nubila, Phoebus After the clouds, Phoebus (1) Iternum Over and over again (2) Phoebus was one of the names for the Sun god, which may be more famous as Apollo (Greek). It is notable that the Sun is a male. The word iternum does not exist; it could either be a misspelling for eternum (eternal), which is unlikely since it is very rare that an adjective be used as an adverb, or for iterum (again and again) which is in fact an adverb and makes a little more sense (!!). The meaning of cursum perficio is actually best explained by the footnote to the lyrics: Enya was inspired by these words she saw on Marylin Monroes last house, where they were taken to mean "my journey ends here". It is a rather "free" translation, but its probably a very good way to convey the meaning of Latin, which has a way of saying things that is very distant from modern-day English. The fact that those words turned out to be prophetical only adds to the power of the song.
