I Dreamt I Dwelt in Marble Halls (我夢見我居住在大理石城堡) 是 1843 年歌劇 The Bohemian Girl 第二幕中的經典詠嘆調,歌曲背景是從小被綁架的奧地利貴族之女 Arline,愛上了波蘭流亡貴族 Thaddeus,並夢見自己居住在建材高雅的大理石造城堡內。7 y$ g4 s9 P& [! X/ l) o

1936 年,Laurel and Hardy (勞萊與哈弟) 系列電影之一 A Comedy Version of The Bohemian Girl 中,有一個 Jacqueline Wells 的版本很受歡迎,演唱的情緒也很契合歌劇中要表達的情境。Laurel and Hardy 兩人是早年台灣電影「王哥與柳哥」系列的原型,年代已久,鮮少年輕人知道,而這首詠嘆調,經愛爾蘭女歌手 Enya 在錄音室裡繁複雕琢與包裝後,變成一首空靈唯美的美聲作品。 .
