Written by：Gordon Lightfoot

Black day in July

七月的黑色一天

Motor City madness has touched the countryside

汽车城的疯狂已经蔓延到了乡村

And through the smoke and cinders

穿越滚滚浓烟和灰烬

You can hear it far and wide

你可以从四面八方听到

The doors are quickly bolted

门很快就关上了

And the children locked inside

孩子被关在家里

Black day in July

七月的黑色一天

Black day in July

七月的黑色一天

And the soul of Motor City is bared across the land

汽车城的灵魂在这片土地上展露无遗

As the book of law and order is taken in the hands

法律与秩序之书就在手中

Of the sons of the fathers who were carried to this land

那些被带到这片土地上的先辈

Black day in July

七月的黑色一天

Black day in July

七月的黑色一天

In the streets of Motor City is a deadly silent sound

汽车城的街道上一片死寂

And the body of a dead youth lies stretched upon the ground

一个死去的年轻人躺在地上

Upon the filthy pavement

走在肮脏的人行道上

No reason can be found

找不到理由

Black day in July

七月的黑色一天

Black day in July

七月的黑色一天

Motor City madness has touched the countryside

汽车城的疯狂已经蔓延到了乡村

And the people rise in anger

人们愤怒地站起来

And the streets begin to fill

街道开始变得拥挤

And there's gunfire from the rooftops

屋顶响起枪声

And the blood begins to spill

鲜血开始流淌

Black day in July

七月的黑色一天

In the mansion of the governor

在州长的豪宅里

There's nothing that is known for sure

没有什么是确定的

The telephone is ringing

电话铃声响起

And the pendulum is swinging

钟摆不停摆动

And they wonder how it happened

他们想知道怎么回事

And they really know the reason

他们真的知道原因

And it wasn't just the temperature

不只是气温的问题

And it wasn't just the season

这不只是一个季节

Black day in July

七月的黑色一天

Black day in July

七月的黑色一天

Motor City's burning and the flames are running wild

汽车城危在旦夕烈焰肆虐

They reflect upon the waters of the river and the lake

它们映射着江与湖的水

And everyone is listening

每个人都侧耳倾听

And everyone's awake

每个人都醒着

Black day in July

七月的黑色一天

Black day in July

七月的黑色一天

The printing press is turning

印刷机转动着

And the news is quickly flashed

消息迅速闪现

And you read your morning paper

你读着晨报

And you sip your cup of tea

你喝着茶

And you wonder just in passing

你会突然好奇

Is it him or is it me

是他还是我

Black day in July

七月的黑色一天

In the office of the President

在总统办公室

The deed is done the troops are sent

行动已经完成军队已经出动

There's really not much choice you see

你看我真的没什么选择

It looks to us like anarchy

在我们看来就像无政府状态

And then the tanks go rolling in

坦克滚滚而来

To patch things up as best they can

竭尽所能弥补过错

There is no time to hesitate

没时间犹豫

The speech is made the dues can wait

演讲结束了会费可以等等

Black day in July

七月的黑色一天

Black day in July

七月的黑色一天

The streets of Motor City now are quiet and serene

如今汽车城的街道一片宁静祥和

But the shapes of gutted buildings

但被摧毁的建筑的形状

Strike terror to the heart

让人心生畏惧

And you say how did it happen

你说怎么会这样

And you say how did it start

你说这一切是如何开始的

Why can't we all be brothers

为何我们不能成为兄弟

Why can't we live in peace

为何我们不能和平相处

But the hands of the havenots

但是黑人同胞的双手

Keep falling out of reach

总是遥不可及
