Diamonds & Rust - Joan Baez
Well I'll be damned
我的老天
Here comes your ghost again
你的魅影又再度出现
But that's not unusual
但这并非不寻常
It's just that the moon is full
只因今晚月圆
And you happened to call
你又恰巧打电话来
And here I sit
我坐在这儿
Hand on the telephone
手持电话
Hearing a voice I'd known
听着我熟悉的声音
A couple of light years ago
那是几个光年以前
Heading straight for a fall
彷佛不断的向下坠落
As I remember your eyes
依稀记得你的眼睛
Were bluer than robin's eggs
比知更鸟的蛋更蓝
My poetry was lousy you said
你说我写的诗糟透了
Where are you calling from?
你从哪里打电话来
A booth in the midwest
在中西部的某个电话亭
Ten years ago
十年前
I bought you some cufflinks
我买过袖扣送你
You brought me something
你亦送了一些东西给我
We both know what memories can bring
我们都明白回忆能够带给我们的
They bring diamonds and rust
它们给了我们钻石与铁锈
Well you burst on the scene
你到来的时候
Already a legend
已经是一个传奇
The unwashed phenomenon
非凡的人
The original vagabond
原本是个流浪者
You strayed into my arms
你漂泊入我的臂弯
And there you stayed
在那里
Temporarily lost at sea
你短暂停留只因迷航海上
The Madonna was yours for free
圣母玛利亚无偿眷顾你
Yes the girl on the half-shell
是的
Would keep you unharmed
半壳上的女孩会让你安然无恙
Now I see you standing
如今,我看到你站在这里
With brown leaves falling around
伫立在黄叶纷飞中
And snow in your hair
发上覆着白雪
Now you're smiling out the window
你微笑着
Of that crummy hotel
在小旅馆窗前
Over Washington Square
那里可以远眺华盛顿广场
Our breath comes out white clouds
你我呼出的气如白云般交错
Mingles and hangs in the air
凝结在冷空气中
Speaking strictly for me
对我来说
We both could have died then and there
我们那时差点死去
Now you're telling me
如今你对我说
You're not nostalgic
你并不怀乡念旧
Then give me another word for it
那么请你找另一个字来代替
You who are so good with words
你向来擅于玩弄文字
And at keeping things vague
使之暧昧难懂
Because I need some of that vagueness now
因为现在我正需要那样的暧昧不明
It's all come back too clearly
过去的一切都太清晰了
Yes I loved you dearly
是的,我深爱着你
And if you're offering me diamonds and rust
如果你又给我钻石与铁锈
I've already paid
而我早已经为此付出过了
