Abstract
With the development of globalization, the international communication is becoming increasingly close and the cultural blending between countries is more frequent. A lot of English songs are introduced into China and gradually become popular, but language and culture differences to some extent hinder the Chinese people from understanding and appreciating English songs. In view of this, English lyrics translation is of great practical significance, which should convey the sense of beauty instead of being limited to the conveyance of meaning. From Xu Yuanzhong’s “Three Beauty Theory”, this paper attempts to analyze the two versions of the theme song Can You Feel the Love Tonight of The Lion King, exploring the beauty of meaning, beauty of sound and beauty of form in lyrics translation.
Key words: lyrics translation; “Three Beauty Theory”； Can You Feel the Love Tonight
