Last Year’s Man歌词完整版

Last Year's Man - Leonard Cohen (莱昂纳德·科恩)

The rain falls down on last year's man

雨跌落在去年的男人身上

That's a Jew's harp on the table

那是犹太人的竖琴在桌上

That's a crayon in his hand

一支蜡笔在他的手中

And the corners of the blueprint are ruined since they rolled

那角落的蓝图 自从他们卷动就已荒废

Far past the stems of thumbtacks

那遥远的图钉杆

That still throw shadows on the wood

依然投下阴影在木头上

And the skylight is like skin for a drum I'll never mend

那天窗像一个 我永远也不会修补的鼓皮

And all the rain falls down amen

所有的雨跌落 阿门

On the works of last year's man

在去年的男人的作品上

I met a lady she was playing with her soldiers in the dark

我遇见一个女士 她和她的士兵们在黑暗中戏耍

Oh one by one she had to tell them

她不得不一个接一个地告诉他们

That her name was Joan of Arc

她的名字是圣女贞德

I was in that army yes I stayed a little while;

我在那支军队中 是的 我呆了一小会

I want to thank you Joan of Arc

想去谢谢你 圣女贞德

For treating me so well

因为你招待我如此之好

And though I wear a uniform I was not born to fight;

虽然我穿着制服 可我天生不是为了战斗

All these wounded boys you lie beside

你躺在所有这些受伤男孩的身边

Goodnight my friends goodnight

我的朋友们 晚安

I came upon a wedding that old families had contrived;

我遇上一场古老的家族谋划的婚礼

Bethlehem the bridegroom

新郎伯利恒

Babylon the bride

新娘巴比伦

Great Babylon was naked oh she stood there trembling for me

大巴比伦赤裸着 她站立在这为我颤抖

And Bethlehem inflamed us both

而伯利恒因我俩而怒火燃烧

Like the shy one at some orgy

像害羞的人面对纵欲狂欢

And when we fell together all our flesh was like a veil

当我们彼此的肉体 感觉像一层面纱

That I had to draw aside to see

因此我不得不拉到一旁去看

The serpent eat its tail

那蛇吃着自己的尾巴

Some women wait for Jesus and some women wait for Cain

一些女人等待耶稣 一些女人等待该隐

So I hang upon my altar

因此我依靠着我的圣坛

And I voice my acts again

同时我再次提高了我的嗓门

And I take the one who finds me back to where it all began

我带着那个找到我的人 回归一切开始的地方

When Jesus was the honeymoon

当耶稣在蜜月

And Cain was just the man

而该隐也只是个人

And we read from pleasant Bibles that are bound in blood and skin

我们从由血液和皮肤组成的亲切的圣经中得知

That the wilderness is gathering

那荒野正聚集

All its children back again

所有它的孩子再次回来

The rain falls down on last year's man

雨跌落在去年的男人身上

An hour has gone by

过去了一个小时

And he has not moved his hand

他也没有移开他的手

But everything will happen if he only gives the word;

他也没有移开他的手 如果他只给出一个指令

The lovers will rise up

情人们将涌起

And the mountains touch the ground

山脉将触摸大地

But the skylight is like skin for a drum I'll never mend

那天窗像一个 我永远也不会修补的鼓皮

And all the rain falls down amen

所有的雨跌落 阿门

On the works of last year's man

在去年的男人的身上
