My Grandfather's Clock - Johnny Cash (约翰尼·卡什)
My grandfather's clock; Was too large for the shelf
我爷爷的大钟大得连架子都放不下
So it stood ninety years on the floor
所以九十年来它都竖立在地板上
It was taller by half than the old man himself
它比爷爷本人还要高出半个身子
Though it weighed not a penny-weight more;
尽管它并不比老人重
It was bought on the morn; Of the day that he was born
在爷爷出生那天早晨它被买进家门
And was always his treasure and pride
自此,它成为他的宝贝和骄傲
But it stopped short never to go again
它忽然停止了,再也不走了
When the old man died
但当老人去世时
Ninety years without slumbering
九十年来没有打过盹儿
(Dah dah dah dah dah dah dah ) (or Trad Tick Tock Tick Tock)
滴答,滴答,滴答,滴答
His life seconds numbering
数着他生命中的每一秒钟
(Dah dah dah dah dah dah dah ) (or Trad Tick Tock Tick Tock)
滴答,滴答,滴答,滴答
It stopped short never to go again
它忽然停止了,再也不走了
When the old man died
当老人去世时
(And) my grandfather said that of those he could hire
我爷爷说在他雇佣的那些人中
Not a servant so faitful he found
没有一个像他的钟那样忠心耿耿
For it wasted no time and had but one desire
因为它从不浪费时间,从来只有一个请求
At the close of each week to be wound
在周末时,它需要上发条
And it kept in its' place; not a frown upon its' face
它一直留在原地,从不皱眉蹙额
And its' hands never hung by its side
从不游手好闲
But it stopped short never to go again
它忽然停止了,再也不走了
When the old man died
当老人去世时
It rang an alarm in the dead of the night
夜深人静时它鸣响了
An alarm that for years had been dumb
数年来一直无声的大钟
And we knew that his spirit was pluming for flight
让我们知晓他的灵魂正准备飞翔
That his hour for departure had come
离别的时刻已经到来
Still the clock kept the time; with its' soft and muffled chimes
大钟依旧走着,声音低沉柔和
As we proudly stood by his side
而我们默默地站在老人身旁
But it stopped short never to go again
它忽然停止了,再也不走了
When the old man died
当老人去世时
Ninety years without slumbering
九十年来没有打过盹儿
(Dah dah dah dah dah dah dah ) (or Trad Tick Tock Tick Tock)
滴答,滴答,滴答,滴答
His life seconds numbering
数着他生命中的每一秒钟
(Dah dah dah dah dah dah dah ) (or Trad Tick Tock Tick Tock)
滴答,滴答,滴答,滴答
It stopped short never to go again
它忽然停止了,再也不走了
When the old man died
当老人去世时
Tick Tock Tick Tock
滴答,滴答,滴答,滴答
