Appreciation
Edelweiss雪绒花，长在海拔1700米以上的阿尔卑斯雪山上，是奥地利及瑞士的国花,象征着纯洁勇敢。《Edelweiss》这首歌又被称为奥地利的非正式国歌，格调幽雅恬静，旋律优美动听。
Edelweiss,Edelweiss. Every morning you greet me. Small and white, clean and bright. You look happy to meet me.歌曲通过对这种美丽国花的歌颂，抒发了对大自然的热爱，表达了奥地利人民发自内心的质朴的爱乡之情，寄托了主人公对亲人、对家乡深深的怀念和祝福。
在影片中，《Edelweiss》的旋律多次响起,一次是上校在家中的演唱，上校用他那悠长的气息，低沉的声音温柔演唱，浪漫而温馨，给人以亲切温暖的感觉。另一次当拒绝为纳粹服务的上校准备冒险带全家离去时，他为家乡的父老乡亲们献上的，还是那首他最喜爱的《雪绒花》。但一曲未了，歌喉已哽咽。妻子玛丽亚默契地接唱下去，并带动全场观众加入大合唱，把全片推向最令人心潮澎湃的高潮，这次歌曲里包含着淡淡的忧伤。
Blossom of snow may you bloom and grow. Bloom and grow forever. Edelweiss, Edelweiss. Bless my homeland forever.整个音乐饱含着主人公对祖国深深的爱，这份爱不会消失，在奥地利人民心中绽放。表达了奥地利人民反对侵略的正义心声和不畏强暴的必胜信念。这首歌虽是小小的音乐道具，却对整部影片的中心起到了画龙点睛的重要作用。
Other Songs
1. The Sound of Music
The hills are alive with the sound of music
With songs they have sung for a thousand years
The hills fill my heart with the sound of music
My heart wants to sing every song it hears
My heart wants to beat like the wings of the birds that rise from the lake to the trees
My heart wants to sigh like a chime (编钟) that flies from a church on a breeze
To laugh like a brook when it trips and falls over stones on its way
To sing through the night like a lark (云雀) who is learning to pray
I go to the hills when my heart is lonely
I know I will hear what I’ve heard before
My heart will be blessed with the sound of music
And I’ll sing once more.
2. My Favorite Things
Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens (小猫咪的胡须)
Bright copper kettles (铜壶) and warm woolen mittens (毛线手套)
Brown paper packages (包装纸盒) tied up with strings
These are a few of my favorite things
Cream colored ponies (乳白色的小马) and crisp apples strudel (酥脆苹果馅卷饼)
Door bells and sleigh bells and schnitzel (炸牛肉片) with noodles
Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings
These are a few of my favorite things
Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes (蓝绸腰带)
Snowflakes (雪片) that stay on my noseand eyelashes
Silver white winters that melt into springs (冰雪融化，春天来临)
These are a few of my favorite things
When the dog bites, when the bee stings (蛰), when I’m feeling sad
I simply remember my favorite things
And then I don’t feel so bad.
3. Do-Re-Mi
Let's start at the very beginning
A very good place to start
When you read you begin with ABC
When you sing you begin with Do Re Mi
Do Re Mi Do Re Mi
The first three notes just happen to be Do Re Mi
Do Re Mi
Do Re Mi Fa So La Ti
Let's see if I can make it easier
Doe, a deer, a female deer. Ray,a drop of golden sun.
Me, a name I call myself. Far, a long, long way to run.
Sew, a needle pulling thread, La, a note to follow Sew,
Tea, a drink with jam and bread! That will bring us back to doe
Doe-ray-me-far-sew-la-tea-doe-sew-doe!
When you know the notes to sing
You can sing most anything
When you know the notes to sing
You can sing most anything
4. Climb Every Mountain
Climb every mountain
Search high and low
Follow every byway, every path you know
Climb every mountain
Ford every stream
Follow every rainbow ‘til you find your dream
A dream that will need all the love you can give
Every day of your life for as long as you live
Climb every mountain
Ford every stream
Follow every rainbow ‘til you find your dream.
