Before The Deluge (Live)歌词完整版
Before The Deluge (Live) - Jackson Browne (杰克逊·布朗)
Some of them were dreamers
有些人是梦想家
And some of them were fools
有些人是傻瓜
Who were making plans
谁在未雨绸缪
And thinking of the future
畅想未来
With the energy of the innocent
带着纯真的活力
They were gathering the tools
他们重整旗鼓
They would need to make their journey
他们需要使他们的旅程
Back to nature
重返自然
While the sand slipped through the opening
当时间如沙子般从沙漏中悄悄流下
And their hands reached for the golden ring
他们回忆起往昔欢乐的岁月
With their hearts they turned
他们患难与共
To each other's heart for refuge
他们相依为命
In the troubled years
在艰难困苦的那些年
That came before the deluge
当洪水泛滥
Some of them knew pleasure
有些人寻欢作乐
And some of them knew pain
有些人颠沛流离
And for some of them
而有些人
It was only the moment that mattered
把它当做化茧成蝶的重要时刻
And on the brave and crazy wings of youth
带着青春勇敢而疯狂的翅膀
They went flying around in the rain
在风雨中振翅高飞
And their feathers
他们曾经
Once so fine
光彩夺目的羽毛
Grew torn and tattered
变得破败不堪
And in the end
最终
They traded their tired wings
他们用那疲惫的翅膀
For the resignation that living brings
来抵抗生活带来的挫折
And exchanged love's bright and fragile glow
这些困难 让爱更加灿烂
For the glitter and the rouge
让我们更加坚强
And in the moment
刹那之间
They were swept before the deluge
洪水将至 人们流离失所
Now let the music keep our spirits high
现在让音乐激励我们的灵魂
Let the buildings keep our children dry
让那些高楼大厦给我们的孩子带来温暖
Let creation reveal it's secrets by and by
尽快展现人们神奇的创造力
By and by
尽快吧
When the light
当希望
That's lost within us reaches the sky
在我们心中失落的天空 快要消失不见
Some of them were angry
有些人愤怒
At the way the earth was abused
地球资源被滥用
By the men who learned
而那些博学的人
How to forge her beauty into power
努力将她的美丽重塑成力量
And they struggled to protect her from them
他们努力保护她不受伤害
Only to be confused
结果仍不尽如人意
By the magnitude
到那个时候
Of her fury in the final hour
在她的暴怒中 地球终将毁灭
And when the sand was gone
当沙子已经流尽
And the time arrived
最后的时刻来临
In the naked dawn only a few survived
在这清冷的黎明 仅有少数人幸存
And in attempts to understand
试着去理解
A thing so simple and so huge
一件如此简单又重要的事情
Believed that they were meant to live
坚信 他们被赋予生存的权利
After the deluge
灾难将至
Now let the music keep our spirits high
现在让音乐激励我们的灵魂
And let the buildings keep our children dry
让那些高楼大厦给我们的孩子带来温暖
Let creation reveal it's secrets by and by
尽快展现人们神奇的创造力
Reaches the sky
让希望重现
