Just as long-lasting: her enduring career. Called "unstoppable" by Rolling Stone in the '80s, the entertainer has continued to reinvent herself.
同樣持久的：她持久的事業。上世紀80年代，《滾石》雜志(Rolling Stone)稱這位藝人“勢不可擋”，她繼續重塑自我。
Since making her debut in 1959, Parton has recorded more than 45 studio albums, appeared in a dozen films, formed her own production company and even opened a wildly successful theme park, Dollywood.
自1959年首次登臺以來，帕頓已經錄制了45張錄音室專輯，出演了十幾部電影，成立了自己的制作公司，甚至還開設了一個非常成功的主題公園——多莉塢。
Next year Netflix will release an eight-part anthology series she executive-produced based on her songs.
明年Netflix將推出一部由她根據自己的歌曲制作的八集劇集。
"Sleep's no big deal to me. I just do that 'cause it's necessary," says Parton.
“睡眠對我來說沒什么大不了的。我這樣做只是因為這是必要的，”帕頓說。
"The older you get, the less you need. I don't want to miss anything." She's not exaggerating. Every day, Parton wakes up at 3 a.m.
“你年紀越大，需要的就越少。”我不想錯過任何東西。她不是夸張。帕頓每天凌晨3點起床。
"I get more work done by seven in the morning than most people get done all day, because it's quiet time," she says. It's also when she finds her peace.
她說：“我在早上7點之前完成的工作比大多數人一整天完成的都多，因為這段時間比較安靜。”也是在這個時候她找到了平靜。
"I spend a lot of time in the mornings with my meditation and my prayers and talking to God," she says. "After that I'll have my coffee."
她說：“每天早上，我都會花很多時間冥想、祈禱，與上帝交談。”“然后我要喝咖啡。”
While she's careful about her diet, she still indulges in her favorite southern dishes.
雖然她對飲食很小心，但她仍然沉溺于她最喜歡的南方菜。
"I can't eat as much of it as I'd like to or as I used to, but I still have to have chicken and dumplings, pork roast, fried corn and fried okra," she says.
她說：“我不能像以前那樣想吃那么多，但我還是得吃雞肉和餃子、烤豬肉、炸玉米和炸秋葵。”
She also loves cooking, a bittersweet pastime that reminds her of her "Mama," Avie—who died in 2003 and was the rock of her family.
她還喜歡烹飪，這是一種苦樂參半的消遣方式，讓她想起了2003年去世的“媽媽”阿維。她是家庭的主心骨。
"Mama's gone now, but she's not gone in our memory and in our cooking." She's also remembered in song.
“媽媽已經走了，但在我們的記憶和烹飪中，她并沒有消失。”歌聲中也有對她的懷念。
"When I sing 'Coat of Many Colors,' that's very personal to me," says Parton.
帕頓說：“我唱《多種顏色的外套》，其實有個人情緒摻雜的。”
"I'm always singing that to Mama. After she passed, it was really hard for me to perform that song ....I would often cry."
“我總是對媽媽唱那首歌。她走后，演唱這首歌對我來說非常困難....我經常哭。”
Parton never became a mom herself, but with a host of nieces, goddaughter Miley Cyrus and her millions of fans, "everyone thinks I'm their aunt," she says with a laugh.
帕頓自己從來沒有當過媽媽，但她有一大群侄女、教女麥莉·塞勒斯(Miley Cyrus)和數百萬的粉絲，“每個人都認為我是他們的阿姨，”她笑著說。
"Now that I'm older, I realize I didn't have kids of my own so everybody's kids could be mine. I try to write songs that touch people's lives because everybody touches mine."
“現在我長大了，我意識到我沒有自己的孩子，所以每個人的孩子都可以是我的。我試著寫一些觸動人們生活的歌曲，因為每個人都觸動了我。”
As long as the world will have her, Parton has no plans to slow down.
只要世界還愿意擁抱她，帕頓就不打算放慢腳步。
"I never think about retiring. I just hope I fall dead in the middle of a song, hopefully one I wrote, right onstage," she jokes, slipping back into her lovable, quotable self.
“我從來沒有想過退休。我只希望我能在一首歌中死去，希望是我在舞臺上寫的那首歌。”她開玩笑說，又做回了可愛的自己。
"I figure I'll sleep when I'm dead. At this rate I will be soon!" Parton's life is richer than she ever thought possible, and it's not something she takes for granted.
“我想我會在睡夢中死去。照這樣下去，我很快就要死了！”帕頓的生活比她想象的要豐富得多，這并不是她認為理所當然的事情。
"When I was younger, I used to wonder what my life would be like, 'cause I always wanted to do something to touch people," she says. "I am grateful that I've seen my dreams come true."
她說：“年輕時，我常常想知道我的生活會是什么樣的，因為我總是想做點什么來感動別人。”“我很感激我看到了我的夢想成真。”
