Patireg to Talo‘an 搭寮

這是漂流出口的山歌。Talo’an,是族人外出狩獵或工作普遍在山上都建有的工寮，就地取材，就可以住在那裡一兩天，一兩個星期，甚至一兩個月。阿美族老人認為，出門聽到綠繡眼鳴聲，出外狩獵或做任何事情都會很順利。但不知什麼時候，獵場變成侵略者的娛樂場造成生態失衡。

早晨
鳥的聲音從芒草出來

夜晚
祈詞帶著檳榔跟酒一起去山上

在那! 足跡就在前方
太久了! 找的一身疲倦

在麵包樹下的不是我的獵物

在那! 足跡就在前方
太久了! 找的一身疲倦

在麵包樹下的不是我的獵物
誰讓祂單獨留在這?
那死去的動物

喘口氣
建造我的工寮

在那! 足跡就在前方
太久了! 找的一身疲倦

為什麼祂就這樣離開?
尋覓! 尋覓! 尋覓!

Morning
The sound of a bird is coming from the silver grass

Night
I bring some betel nut and rice wine up the mountain for a prayer

They’re there! Footprints are in front of me
Too long! I looked until I was half dead

My prey was not under the breadfruit tree

Night
I bring some betel nut and wine up the mountain for a prayer

They’re there! Footprints are in front of me
Too long! I looked until I was half dead

My prey was not under the breadfruit tree
Who left the spirit alone?
That dead animal

Take a breath
I am building my cabin

They’re there! Footprints are in front of me
Too long! I looked until I was half dead

Why did the spirits leave just like this?
Searching! Searching! Searching!
