Peter, Paul and Mary was an American folk group formed in New York City in 1961 during the American folk music revival. The trio consisted of Peter Yarrow (guitar, tenor vocals), Paul Stookey (guitar, baritone vocals), and Mary Travers (contralto vocals).[1] The group's repertoire included songs written by Yarrow, Luis Manuel and Stookey, early songs by Bob Dylan, and covers of other folk musicians.

They were very successful in the early- and mid-1960s, with their debut album topping the charts for weeks, and helped popularize the folk music revival. Following Travers's death in 2009, Yarrow and Stookey continued to perform as a duo.[2] Yarrow died in 2025, leaving Stookey the sole surviving member of the group.

彼得、保羅和瑪麗(Peter, Paul and Mary)是美國民謠組合,於1961年在美國民謠復興運動期間在紐約市成立。該組合由彼得·亞羅(Peter Yarrow,吉他、男高音)、保羅·斯圖基(Paul Stookey,吉他、男中音)和瑪麗·特拉弗斯(Mary Travers,女低音)組成。 [1] 他們的曲目包括亞羅、路易斯·曼努埃爾和斯圖基創作的歌曲,鮑勃·迪倫的早期作品,以及其他民謠音樂人的翻唱作品。


他們在1960年代初中期非常成功,首張專輯連續數週位居排行榜榜首,並推動了民謠復興運動的流行。特拉弗斯於2009年去世後,亞羅和斯圖基繼續以二重唱的形式演出。 [2] 亞羅於2025年去世,斯圖基成為該組合唯一在世的成員。


Travers said she was influenced by Woody GuthriePete Seeger, and the Weavers.[3] In May 1963, Stookey described the formation and dynamics of the group on Folk Music Worldwide, an international short-wave radio show in New York City.[4][5] In the 2004 documentary Peter, Paul & Mary: Carry It On – A Musical Legacy, members of the Weavers discuss how Peter, Paul and Mary took over the torch of the social commentary of folk music in the 1960s.

特拉弗斯曾表示,她受到伍迪·格思裡、皮特·西格和織工樂隊的影響。 [3] 1963年5月,斯圖基在紐約市的國際短波廣播節目「世界民謠音樂」(Folk Music Worldwide)中描述了樂團的組成和發展歷程。 [4][5] 在2004年的紀錄片《彼得、保羅與瑪麗:傳承-音樂遺產》(Peter, Paul & Mary: Carry It On – A Musical Legacy)中,織工樂隊的成員們探討了彼得、保羅和瑪麗如何在20世紀60年代接過民謠音樂的社會評論火炬。


該組合於1999年入選聲樂組合名人堂。 2006年,彼得、保羅和瑪麗榮獲詞曲作家名人堂頒發的薩米·卡恩終身成就獎。


The group was inducted into the Vocal Group Hall of Fame in 1999. Peter, Paul and Mary received the Sammy Cahn Lifetime Achievement Award from the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2006.

《點燃一支蠟燭》(Light One Candle)是民謠組合彼得、保羅和瑪莉演唱的一首歌曲。團體於1982年開始在演唱會上表演這首歌,之後將其收錄於1986年發行的錄音室專輯《通往自由之路》(No Easy Walk to Freedom)中。


一首廣受歡迎的光明節歌曲《點燃一支蠟燭》(Light One Candle)的歌詞是為了紀念公元前167年至141年間馬加比家族為爭取民族解放而與塞琉古希臘帝國作戰的戰爭。這場戰爭以及馬加比家族的勝利在《馬加比書》中均有記載,並在猶太教光明節期間得到慶祝。


歷史


《點燃一支蠟燭》(Light One Candle)由彼得·亞羅(Peter Yarrow)於1982年創作,並在卡內基音樂廳首演[1][2],歌詞反映了對1982年黎巴嫩戰爭的和平主義回應:


「點燃一支蠟燭,為了正義與自由所要求的偉大犧牲,


「點燃一支蠟燭,為了擁有智慧,懂得何時是和平締造者的時機。」[3][1]


1983年,彼得、保羅和瑪麗在耶路撒冷——一個飽受黎巴嫩戰爭蹂躪的國家——演唱這首歌時,他們添加了歌詞,以回應聽眾所面臨的複雜政治局勢:


「點燃一支蠟燭,為了擁有力量,永不自相殘殺。


「點燃一支蠟燭,為了那些正在遭受苦難的人們,為了我們早已體會過的痛苦。


「點燃一支蠟燭,為了我們所信仰的一切,願憤怒不要撕裂我們。


「點燃一支蠟燭,讓和平之歌將我們緊緊相連…」[3]


當他們重複唱起副歌「別讓這光芒熄滅,它已持續多年,別讓這光芒熄滅,讓它透過我們的愛與淚水閃耀」時,政治立場各異的觀眾爆發出歡呼聲。 [3]

History

"Light One Candle," written in 1982 by Peter Yarrow and first performed at Carnegie Hall,[1][2] was a pacifist response to the 1982 Lebanon War as reflected in the lyrics:

   "Light one candle for the terrible sacrifice justice and freedom demand,
   "Light one candle for the wisdom to know when the peacemaker's time is at hand."[3][1]

In 1983, when Peter, Paul and Mary performed the song in Jerusalem - in a country torn over the Lebanon War - they added lyrics to address the political complexities faced by their audience:

    "Light one candle for the strength that we need to never become our own foe.
    "Light one candle for those who are suffering, pain we learned so long ago.
    "Light one candle for all we believe in, let anger not tear us apart.
    "Light one candle to bind us together with peace as the song in our heart..."[3]

When they repeated the chorus, "Don't let the light go out, it's lasted for so many years, Don't let the light go out, let it shine through our love and our tears," the politically mixed audience cheered.[3]
